One sunny day all the animals came together to choose a king. They made a wide circle in the forest. A monkey danced and played such clever tricks that most animals made him king. The fox was very angry about this.
The next day the fox was walking slowly along a road. He saw a trap which a man had set. There was a piece of meat in the trap. He thought for a moment and then hurried off to fetch the monkey.
When the monkey saw the meat,he said it was fit for a king. The monkey quickly grabbed the meat and then was caught in the trap. Soon the man who had set the trap came by with his son. They took the monkey away with them.
The fox went to tell all the other animals what had happened. They all agreed that the monkey was not wise. They chose the fox instead

参考译文
一个阳光灿烂的日子,所有动物聚集到一起选国王。它们在森林中围成一个大圈。一只猴子手舞足蹈,玩出各种聪明的把戏,结果大多数动物都选它当国王。狐狸对此很生气。
第二天,狐狸正在路上踱步,突然发现人类设置的一处陷阱。陷阱里有一块肉。它思索片刻,然后赶忙回去请猴子。
猴子看见肉后,说肉正适合国王享用。猴子飞快地抓起肉,结果被困在陷阱里。很快设陷阱的人和他儿子一起来了,他们将猴子带走。
狐狸去找所有其他动物,将发生的事情告诉了它们。它们都认为猴子不聪明,于是选狐狸代替它当国王。
