The Rabbit and the Turtle



I have read “the Rabbit and the Turtle”. I think it is a funny folk tale, so I like it very much.
It is about a rabbit and a turtle having a running race. First, lots of animals came to the Autumn Athletic Meeting. Then, the rabbit said “Let’s have a race” to the turtle. The turtle replied, “OK!” Next, they started the race. At first, the rabbit ran very fast, but after that the rabbit went to a big tree and fell asleep. Because the rabbit has fallen asleep, the turtle walked and walked. But when the turtle almost got to the finish line, the rabbit woke up and started to run again. Finally, the turtle got to the finish line. Everybody cheered.
This folk tale tells us a truth; it is that conceit makes one lag behind, modesty makes people progress.
