Question

On a snowy day, a hunter(狩猎者) went hunting with his strong dog. The hunter shot a rabbit in one of her back legs. The wounded(受伤的) rabbit tried her best to run away. Quickly the smart dog ran after her. After some time the rabbit was farther and farther. Thinking that he couldn't catch her, the dog had to come back to the hunter. “You are useless and you can't catch the wounded rabbit，” said the hunter angrily. After the dog heard this, he disagreed and argued, “But I've just tried！”

The rabbit, with a wound, managed to return home. All her brothers and sisters were surprised. They all came up to her and asked, “The dog is so fast. You have a wound, how could you run away from him？” The rabbit said, “He just tried, but I did my utmost. If he did not catch me, he would just get a curse(咒骂语) at most.
