     “Hark!” cried the first in fear,6. 因為在不遠處聽到了一個低沉的聲音。Braggart,who was light and nimble,climbed up a tree like a squirrel (松鼠) ， leaving his friend,who was not so active,to face the danger alone! 7. Quickwit could do nothing but throw himself on the ground and pretended (假裝) to be dead;8. for he had heard that bears would never touch a dead body.

bear,thinking him dead,went off into the wood again,leaving him quite unharmed!

     “He told me”’ replied Quickwit ,“never again to trust a man who talks big like you!”
