One day there was a horse eating grass in an old   1   tomato field.

A little frog was sitting nearby and he saw the big animal. “It’s perhaps   2   biggest animal I have ever seen. I must hop(跳跃、蹦)home and   3   my father about it.”

He hopped past the parent’s house. He hopped around stacks of hay(干草堆).

“Father Frog, Father Frog,” he cried.

“I saw a very big animal just now. It is the biggest animal I   4  .Maybe it is the biggest in the world.”

“How big? Like this?” And the Father Frog puffed himself out(鼓起他自己的大肚皮).

“No, no,” said the little frog. “It was   5   than that.”

“Well, was it as big as this?” asked the Father Frog. And he blew himself even more.

“Oh, it was   6   bigger than you.” Father Frog was   7    now, because he didn’t like to think that something was bigger than he. He thought for a minute, then he   8   one more try.

He puffed and puffed. He blew himself up   9   …pop!

The little frog saw this. He was frightened and this   10   him a lesson. Never try to be bigger than it is possible for you.
