Four cows lived in a forest near some open grasslands. They were good friends and did everything together. They walked around together, ate grass together and 1 together day and night. As they were always together, they could protect(保护) each other from tigers and lions. They might want to kill them 2 food.
But one day, the four 3 got into a big fight. They couldn't work it out and all wanted to leave and go their own way. They each found a new 4 to live in. But a lion 5 found them. He thought that this might be a good time to kill the cows and 6 a good meal. One by one, he found the cows and killed them all.
The story gives us something to 7 . What the cows did not understand is that there is strength (力量) in numbers. This is 8 even for people. If we stay close with our friends and family members, they can give us the strength to get through the 9 times. And at the same time, 10 can help them when they are in need themselves.
