The cat came to the place where the lard was, and the skin of the lard was eaten, and the mouse returned and asked, "what is the name of your cousin's son?" "The cat said," go to the skin!" The mouse felt strange but did not ask. After a few days the cat was hungry again and had to say to the mouse, "my cousin has a son, so I can go and see." The mouse agreed, and the cat came to the place where the lard was and ate half of the lard. Then the mouse returned and asked the cat, "what is your cousin's son's name?" The cat said, "half done," and the mouse was more surprised, but did not ask. After a few days, the cat was hungry again and said to the mouse, "I love my baby, tell me to be a father," and the mouse agreed.

Once upon a time, there was a very lazy pig who only knew how to eat and sleep, and seldom did anything for others. One day, when mother pig came home, she was so tired that she asked the pig to buy food. After hearing the pig, he twisted his fat ass and said, "I don't want to go. I don't want to go." Pig mother listen to pig, say to it: "you this lazy insect, if you go, I give you chocolate to eat." Hearing this, the pig got up reluctantly, took a basket and slowly walked out of the house. Along the way, he played while he walked, smelling and smelling. Suddenly, the pig smelt a fragrance, so, the pig thought: there must be a lot of delicious food, ha ha. He walked along the scent, and at last came under a big tree. He saw many delicious food, and he jumped on it and ate. When he was eating, he had no idea that a ferocious Wolf was hiding in the grass behind him. In a few moments, the pig finished eating those things. Lying on the grass, he felt his round belly and said, "it's delicious. It's delicious." All of a sudden, the Wolf came out of the grass, and the two green eyes were looking at the pig. Piggy saw the Wolf and wanted to run away, but because the piggy didn't like to exercise, he ate so many things just now, he couldn't run, so he shouted for help. The Wolf got closer and closer, and the dog at the bottom of the mountain heard the cry of the piggy. He shouted to his companion, and he rushed at full speed to the mountain. Luckily, the dog ran up the mountain in time. The Wolf saw so many dogs, and was so angry that he ran away.
When the pig came home, he told the whole story, and the mother said, "my child! You should take this as a deep lesson and stop being lazy.
From then on, the pig got up very early every day and worked out, becoming a lovely and healthy pig.
Io was the daughter of a rivergod. She was loved，run after and won by Zeus.
伊俄是河神的女儿，宙斯爱她、追求她、并得到了她。
Hera became so green eyed that she flew down from Olympus one day to pay her rival back 。Zeus，however，had foreseen her arrival and changed Io into a beautiful white little cow. Seeing through the trick，Hera asked for the cow as a present and Zeus had to give in to her wish 。Then she left the cow to the care of a hundred eyed monster，Argus.
赫拉对此嫉妒不已。一天她飞下奥林波斯山向情敌施加报复。然而宙斯早已预见到她的光临，就将伊俄变成了一头美丽的小白牛犊，赫拉看穿了其中的诡计，非要一头牛犊作为礼物。宙斯无奈，只得让她如愿以偿。赫拉便将牛犊托付给百眼魔鬼阿刚斯看管。
Argus eyes were ever open and no escape was possible. Unable to bear to see her so unhappy，Zeus sent Hermes down to destroy the monster. Dressed up as a shepherd，Hermes lulled Argus to sleep with his sweet songs and long stories，then killed him and set Io free.
阿刚斯的眼睛永远睁着，要想逃脱是不可能的。看到伊俄如此忧郁，宙斯简直无法忍受，便令赫耳墨斯将魔鬼铲除。赫耳墨斯乔装成牧羊人给阿刚斯唱悦耳动听的歌，讲冗长乏味的故事以哄他入睡。之后便寻机杀死魔鬼，释放了伊俄。
But Heras anger was not to be calmed down yet. She sent a gadfly to attack the cow and drive her from land to land. In her misery the cow passed over the strait which divides Europe and Asia. In this way the strip of water got its name Bosporus ，the way of the cow.
但赫拉的狂怒并未消除。她派了一只牛虻去攻击牛犊，使她颠沛流离。在十分悲痛之中，牛犊穿越了分隔欧亚大陆的海峡。从此这片狭长的水域被称作博斯普鲁斯海峡，意为牛犊之路。
She wandered over the sea，which by chance got from her its name the Ionian Sea 。In the end she arrived in Egypt where she was turned back into her natural form 。She settled down and gave birth to a son，Some of her children remained in Egypt and ruled as kings for a longtime.
她接着漫游过海，这片大海也就在偶然中有了名称——伊奥尼亚海，最后她到了埃及，并恢复了她本来的体态和容貌。她在那里落户并生了个儿子。她的一些子孙就呆在了埃及，当了很长时间的国王。

我只有一种本领。猫谦虚地说。
甚么本领？狐狸问。
有人追我的时候，我会爬到树上去藏起来保护自我。
就这本事？狐狸不屑地说，我掌握了上百种本领，而且还有满口袋计谋。我真觉得你可怜，跟着我吧，我教你怎样从追捕中逃生。

快打开你的计谋口袋，狐狸先生，快打开呀！猫冲着狐狸喊道。但是猎狗已经将狐狸扑倒咬住了。哎呀，狐狸先生，猫喊道，你的千百种本领就这么给扔掉了！假如你能像我一样爬树就不至於丢了性命了！

“哎呀，我没有穿上靴子！没有戴上大手套！”小小的格尔达叫着。
She remarked she was without them from the cutting frost; but the Reindeer dared not stand still; on he ran till he came to the great bush with the red berries, and there he set Gerda down, kissed her mouth, while large bright tears flowed from the animal's eyes, and then back he went as fast as possible.
她马上就感到刺人的寒冷；不过驯鹿不敢停下来：它一口气跑到生满了红浆果的那个灌木林旁边。它把格尔达放下来，在她的嘴上吻了一下，于是大颗亮晶晶的眼泪就流到了脸上来。它尽快地又跑回去了。
There stood poor Gerda now, without shoes or gloves, in the very middle of dreadful icy Finland.
可怜的格尔达站在那儿，在那可怕的、寒冷的芬马克，没有穿鞋子，也没有戴大手套。

The flakes ran along the ground, and then earer they came the larger they grew. Gerda well remembered how large and strange the snow-flakes appeared when she once saw them through a magnifying-glass; but now they were large and terrific in another manner--they were all alive.

They were the out posts of the Snow Queen. They had the most wondrous shapes; some looked like large ugly porcupines; others like snakes knotted together, with their heads sticking out; and others,again, like small fat bears, with the hair standing on end: all were of dazzling whiteness--all were living snow-flakes.
它们是白雪皇后的前哨兵，而且是奇形怪状的。有的样子像丑陋的大刺猬；有的像许多伸出头、纠成一团的蛇；有的像毛发直立的小胖熊。它们全都是白得发亮的、有生命的雪花。
Little Gerda repeated the Lord's Prayer. The cold was so intense that she could see her own breath, which came like smoke out of her mouth. It grew thicker and thicker, and took the form of little angels, that grew more and more when they touched the earth.
小小的格尔达念着《主祷文》。天气是那么寒冷，她可以看到自己呼出的气像烟雾似的从嘴里冒出来。呼出的气越来越浓，形成了明亮的小安琪儿。当他们一接触到地面时，就越变越大。
All had helms on their heads, and lances and shields in their hands; they increased in numbers; and when Gerda had finished the Lord's Prayer, she was surrounded by a whole legion.
他们都戴着头盔，拿着矛和盾。他们的数目在增大。当格尔达念完了祷告以后，她周围就出现了一个很大的兵团。
They thrust at the horrid snow-flakes with their spears, so that they flew into a thousand pieces; and little Gerda walked on bravely and in security. The angels patted her hands and feet; and then she felt the cold less, and went on quickly towards the palace of the Snow Queen.
这些兵士用长矛刺着这些可怕的雪花，把这些雪花打成无数碎片。于是小小的格尔达就又稳步地、勇敢地向前进。安琪儿抚摸着她的手和脚，于是她就不那么感到寒冷了。她匆忙地向白雪皇后的宫殿前进。
But now we shall see how Kay fared. He never thought of Gerda, and least of all that she was standing before the palace.

Little mouse, open the door for me! This frightened the mouse, knowing that there was danger approaching it. But it's still in control. The mouse was angry and said, "cat and mouse are enemies. Why should I open the door for you?" The cat said, "if you don't come and open the door for me, do you want to see me die on your doorstep? It won't do you any good, "said the mouse. It opened the door to the cat, and it took a lot of effort to pull the cat in. He gave all the food in the house to the cat. The cat ate the food and the strength came back! It first blocked up the hole and caught the mouse. The mouse was angry and said, "cat! You ungrateful wretch! Before the mouse had finished, the cat struck the mouse hard on the ground. Because the hole was blocked, the mice had to work very hard to get out of the rat hole. And the cat opened its mouth and pounced on the mouse.
