No dinner for the foxes
One day, a mother fox is out looking for food. Baby fox is with her. They see some ducks in the pond (池塘).
Baby fox says," l like to eat ducks. I think we can catch one."
Mother fox says, "We can't catch ducks in the water. They can swim very fast."
The foxes hide in the tall grass. They watch the ducks playing in the pond. At last, eight ducks come out on the land.
Mother fox says," Now we can catch a duck. Ducks don't walk fast." "I'll grab that first duck." says Baby fox.
Mother fox says, "Wait until they get near us. Ready? Go!" The foxes jump out of the grass.
As quickly as they jump out, the ducks get away. Do they run away? No! Do they swim away? No! The ducks fly away!
Mother fox says, "I forget that ducks have wings. Now we have nothing to eat!"

The Chinese lion dance中国舞狮
The Chinese lion dance is a dance that has been performed(表演)since a long time ago. It has passed down by Chinese people for over two thousand years. The dance is often showed during the Chinese New Year and other special events. The dancers wear a lion costume (演出服)while dancing. One person moves the head of the lion, and another person moves the tail. They move like a lion. They roll on the ground, jump and ready to catch the red small ball. Sometimes, they jump on chairs, too. When they dance, drums are played as well. People believe that loud noise can scare away evil spirits and bring good luck to people.
