龟兔赛跑英文版简短 The Tortoise and the Hare The hare was once boasting of his speed before the other animals. I have never yet been beaten, said he, when I put forth my full speed. I challenge anyone here to race with me. The tortoise said quietly, I accept your challenge. That is a good joke, said the hare. I could dance around you all the way. Keep your boasting until youve beaten, answered the tortoise. Shall we race? So a course was fixed and a start was made. The hare darted almost out of sight at once, but soon stopped and, to show his contempt for thetortoise, lay down to have a nap. The tortoise plodded on and plodded on, and when the hare awoke from his nap, he saw the tortoise nearing he finish line, and he could not catch up in time to save the race. 本文来源：https://www.wddqw.com/doc/1d48a5afb90d4a7302768e9951e79b8969026851.html
