The Frog in the Shallow Well(井底之蛙)
Have you heard of the frog that lived in a shallow well? It said to a turtle that lived in the East Sea, "I am so happy! When I go out, I jump about on the railing beside the mouth of the well. When I come home, I rest in the holes on the broken wall of the well. If I jump into the water,it comes up to my armpits and holds up my cheeks. If I walk in the mud, it covers up my feet. I look around at the wriggly worms, crabs and tadpoles, and none of them can compare with me. I am lord of this trough of water and I stand up tall in this shallow well. I’m happy. My dear sir, why don"t you come over and look around my place?"

In the time of King Yu of the Xia dynasty, there were floods nine years out of ten, but the waters in the a did not increa. In the time of King Tang of the Shang dynasty there were droughts ven years out of eight,
but the waters in the a did not decrea. The a does not change with the passage of time and its level does not ri or fall according to the amount of rain that falls. The greatest happiness is to live in the East Sea."

A fox was running after a crow becau there was a piece of meat in his mouth. As the crow stopped in a tree and was going to enjoy his meal, the cunning fox yelled, “Have I told you that your feather are beautiful? I think you are the most beautiful bird. But I wonder how your voice sounds like. If your voice is as beautiful as your feathers, I think you should be the king of birds. Can you sing a song for me?
