What fables have you read? 8 Yes, I like reading fables very much. I have read many classic fables, such as “The Tortoise and the Hare”, “The Fox and the Crow”, and “The Ant and the Grasshopper”. From “The Tortoise and the Hare”, I learned that modesty and perseverance（谦虚和坚持） are more important than pride and speed. We should keep working hard and not be overconfident. 9 Read the fable and write true (T) or false (F). 1 Long ago, there was a kind and honest woodcutter. One day, when he was cutting wood beside a lake, he lost his axe in the water. The water was deep, and he could not get his axe back. He had only one axe, and he needed it to make a living. He sat down and began to cry. As he cried, a fairy appeared. She asked the man what was wrong. She listened to the woodcutter and felt sorry for him. But what could she do to help? Suddenly, she came up with a great idea. The fairy jumped into the lake and brought back a golden axe. "Is this the axe you lost?" asked the good fairy. The man looked at the golden axe and shook his head. He told the fairy it wasn't his. The fairy jumped into the water again and brought back a silver axe. Once again, the man said that it wasn't his. The fairy went down a third time and returned with the woodcutter's old axe. "That's the right one!" said the woodcutter. The fairy was so happy with the woodcutter's honesty that she gave him the other two axes as a present. Honesty truly is the best policy.

The tortoise didn’t give up and decided to have a race with the hare. The race began. The hare ran very fast at first. He thought the tortoise could never catch up, so he lay down under a tree and fell asleep. But the tortoise kept walking slowly and never stopped. When the hare woke up, it was too late. The tortoise already reached the finishing line. The story tells us: Pride goes before a fall. Persistence leads to success. 一天，兔子嘲笑乌龟走得慢。乌龟没有放弃，决定和兔子赛跑。 比赛开始了。兔子一开始跑得飞快。他觉得乌龟永远追不上自己，于是躺在树下睡着了。 但乌龟一直慢慢走，从不停下。等兔子醒来时，已经晚了。乌龟已经到达了终点。 这个故事告诉我们：骄傲使人落后，坚持才能成功。 1.
