答：When a lion was asleep, a little mouse began running up and down beside him. This soon wakened the lion. He was very angry, and caught the mouse in his paws . “Five me, please,”cried the little mouse. “I may be able to help you some day.”The lion was amused at these words. Hethought, “How could this little mouse help me?”However, he lifted up his paws and let him go.
