There was a farm, where lived Farmer John with his wife Molly. They raised many animals on their farm. Also there lived a little mouse.

One day the mouse accidentally discovered that the farmer had a mouse trap(捕鼠器). The mouse ran around the farmland to warn all the animals of the danger.

First it met the chicken. “There is a mousetrap on the farm!” the mouse said in fear. But the chicken answered peacefully, “There is nothing to do with me.” Then the mouse rushed to the pig and the cow to tell them about the mousetrap. But they said it was no big deal for them, either. Sad and depressed, the little mouse returned to the house.
