　　小学英语阅读：The Lion and the Mouse Who Returned a Favor

　　A cute baby mouse went on a picnic in the woods. At the same time， a lion was taking a nap in the warm sunlight. The baby mouse was alarmed to see the large lion taking a nap. ‘Wow！ Mr. Lion is bigger than I’ve heard！‘

　　While gazing at the lion， the baby mouse happened to step on the lion’s paw. Instantly， the lion opened his eyes and glared at the mouse. “What fool stepped on my foot？” Scared to death， the baby mouse shivered.

　　“Mr. Lion， please forgive me.” begged the baby mouse. However， the lion was very displeased that the little mouse stepped on his foot. “I‘m sorry. Please， forgive me. If you spare my life， I will return a favor，” said the mouse. “Huh！ How can such a little creature like you return my favor？” snorted the lion.

　　The baby mouse mustered all his courage and said once again， “Mr. Lion， you will be in trouble someday and who knows who can help you？”

　　The lion was impressed by the little mouse’s courage and said， “Well， well， well！ Since I appreciate your courage， I‘ll forgive you. I will let you go.” “Thank you， Mr. Lion！” The baby mouse hurriedly ran a way.
