Long, long ago, there was a little fox. He and his parents lived in a box. The father was crimson, the mother scarlet, And the little red son could fight down an ox! They worked together; they had no fears. Their teeth were sharp, and so were their ears. Then, one day, the little fox lad, Using his most efficient gears, Heard some deer, thirty at least. They weren’t hunted down by many a beast. So the little lad decided to track them down And make his parents a sumptuous feast. He followed the deer to a giant plain, Where there was much prey to hunt and less rain. The little fox liked this place very much, So he had fun, hunting a deer and scratching a horse’s mane. He went back home, dragging his prey. Their parents looked like they had their happiest day. But when the little fox told them he wanted to move out of the box, Their faces turned gray right away. They told him that outside there was danger, And also many a dreadful stranger. The little fox was, of course, very unhappy. So he went to his clothes hanger. There was hanging his favorite toy. It was a little red-shirted boy. He wanted to go to the vast plain, Even if he had to eat disgusting soy! So he went to his parents once more. And his little mind did freely soar. He suggested that they should move the box, The chairs, the tables, and many more! They thought the plan was very great. The little fox was exited of their fate. They moved everything, one and all, Three clean bowls, two stained dishes, and a dirty plate. They soon found the plain had lots of prey to catch— Goats and deer, batch after batch. And they had moved into a better box! If they wanted to turn on a light, they didn’t have to do anything, not even flick a switch or pull a latch! Although the prey were not very weak, Them the foxes could easily seek. Their new house was cozy and comfortable, With tables that were tough and floors that didn’t creak! 不愿意待在盒子里的狐貍 很久很久以前，有一只小狐貍， 他和家人住在一個盒子里。 深紅色的爸爸，猩紅色的媽媽， 紅紅的小家伙哪怕是一頭牛也敢前去比一比。 他們耳朵聰聰，牙齒鋒利， 無所畏懼，同舟共濟(jì)。 突然，有一天，這只小狐貍 憑著靈敏的耳朵， 察覺到30多頭鹿的蹤跡。 顯然，后面沒有捕食者追擊。 小狐貍此時心生一計(jì)， 要弄只肥鹿回來給爸爸媽媽打打牙祭。 他尾隨著鹿群，來到了平原， 獵物很多，但常年干旱。 這個地方，小狐貍喜歡， 追鹿，撫馬，十分開心。 等小狐貍拽著獵物回家， 幸福的笑容在爸爸媽媽的臉上掛。 當(dāng)小狐貍說要離開盒子， 他們臉色突變，讓人害怕。 說，外面的世界十分兇險， 可怕的陌生人隨處可見。 小狐貍一聽，很不高興， 一個人來到衣架面前。 那里掛著他心愛的玩具， 那是一個穿紅衣的男孩，一臉童趣。 小狐貍執(zhí)意要去平原， 即使要吃惡心的豆子也心安不懼。 他再次來到爸媽面前， 小小的腦袋高速運(yùn)轉(zhuǎn)。 他建議把東西全部搬走， 盒子桌椅，一切齊全。 爸媽覺得這主意很棒， 小狐貍想著即將改變的命運(yùn)心旌蕩漾。 他們搬走了三個干凈的碗、兩個半干不凈的碟子和一個臟兮兮的盤子， 總之，所有的東西，只要能用的上。 他們很快發(fā)現(xiàn)，平原上獵物很多， 有羊，有鹿，一撥過去又有一撥。 這個“新盒子”可比原來的好了很多。 想要開燈，無需按開關(guān)， 想要關(guān)門，無需拉門閂。 說來說去， 什么也不需要干。 盡管獵物強(qiáng)壯無比， 找到它們卻很容易。 他們的新居舒適溫暖， 有結(jié)實(shí)的桌子和不叫喚的地板。
