没有心的牛
七只狮子和一头牛做了朋友。有一天，狮子请了牛来家里做客，并且准备了一大堆的鲜肉和牛分享。牛不敢吃肉，只好假装自己已经在家吃饱了。
后来轮到牛请客了。七只狮子一起来到牛家里，却发现一块肉也没有，只有一大堆的新鲜牧草。
“怎么搞的？你没有准备肉？”狮子们又惊讶又气愤。“你忘了我们是食肉动物吗？我们怎么能吃草呢？”
“可是，我要到哪里找肉呢？”牛看见狮子们生气，赶紧为自己辩解。
“你真是没有诚意，完全没有把我们当朋友看待。如果是别人，我们早就把它撕成碎片了。但是你是我们的朋友，为了表示我们的仁慈，我们只吃你一条腿就算了。”
说完，狮子们就扑上去，咬下牛身上的一条腿来。牛因为流血过多，一会儿就死了。狮子干脆把牛的身体也吃了。
这时候，一只狐狸经过，便乘机把牛心叼到树后吃掉了。
狮子吃完牛身之后，惊讶地互相问道：“咦，这只牛的心在哪儿？难道他没有心吗？”
这时候狐狸从树后走了出来，舔舔嘴巴说：“他有心，只是没有脑子而已。”
參考答案:A Cow With No Heart
Once a upon a time, there were seven lions and a cow who became good friends.One day, the lions invited the cow over for dinner. They prepared lots of fresh meat for the cow. Of course, the cow would not eat the meat. So she told the lions that she had her dinner at home and now she was too full to eat anything.
Now it was the cow’s turn to invite the lions over for dinner. The seven hungry lions came. But the only thing they could find was nothing but a haystack. “How could this be? Don’t you have any meat for us? The lions were shocked and furious.
“ Don’t you know that we are meat eaters? How can we eat hay?”
“But where can I get meat now?” the cow tried to explain to the seven angry lions . “
“ You don't really mean to invite us . You don’t treat us as friends at all. If it were not you, we would have torn you into pieces. To show our mercy, we just want one of your legs.” 。
Before the cow could say anything , all the lions sprang up and bit off the cow’s leg. Soon the poor cow bled to death. So the lions gobbled up the rest of the cow.
At this moment a fox happened to walk by. He snatched the cow heart and gobbled it up behind a tree.
After eating the body of the cow, the lions began to realize that the cow heart was missing. They looked at each other, “ what happened to the cow heart? Didn’t she have a heart?”
“ She sure did !” answered the fox who appeared from behind the tree, still licking his mouth, “ But she had no brain.”
