The Old Cat
An old woman had a cat. The cat was very old; she could not run quickly, and she could not bite, because she was so old. One day the old cat saw a mouse; she jumped and caught the mouse. But she could not bite it; so the mouse got out of her mouth and ran away, because the cat could not bite it.
Then the old woman became very angry because the cat had not killed the mouse. She began to hit the cat. The cat said, "Do not hit your old servant. I have worked for you for many years, and I would work for you still, but I am too old. Do not be unkind to the old, but remember what good work the old did when they were young."来自：求助得到的回答

The FOX and the CROW 狐狸与乌鸦
A Crow was sitting on a branch of a tree with a piece of cheese in her beak when a fox saw her and thought hard about how he might get the cheese. Standing under the tree, he looked up and said,"What a noble bird I see above me! Her bueaty is without equal,the hue of her plumage exquisite. If only her voice is as sweet as her looks are fair, she ought without doubt to be the Queen of the Birds." The crow was hugely flattered by this,and just to show the fox that she could sing she gave a loud "Caw!" Down came the cheese,of course,and the fox,snatching it up,said,"You have a voice,madam,I see. What you are sadly lacking is wits!"
Moral: Beware of flatterers.
一只乌鸦叼着一块奶酪站在树梢。一只狐狸看到，便打那奶酪的主意。狐狸跑到树下向上喊，“我头上的鸟多高贵啊！她的美举世无双，她的毛色多精美。如果她的歌喉象她的外貌一样美，那她当之无愧就是百鸟之王。”乌鸦很得意，便想显一下她的歌喉，使劲地“嘎”的叫了一声。无疑，奶酪掉了下来，狐狸一把抓住，说：“看来您的歌喉很美，您缺的是智慧！”
寓义：小心阿谀奉承者。
