More than anything else in the world, Lion liked being King of the jungle. He walked around, showing off his power and pride.

Each day Lion took a long, lazy sleep under the shade of his favorite tree. He always dreamed of weaker animals bowing(鞠躬)before him.

One day Mouse ran through the jungle and tripped(绊倒)over Lion’s huge paws, Lion woke up with a start. “How dare you wake me up!” he shouted angrily, Lion grabbed Mouse with one paw. “On second thought, I’m in the mood for a snack, and you’ll make a delicious meal,” he said.

Mouse cried out, “King Lion, please spare(饶恕)me! If you let me live, I’ll always remember your kindness. And someday, I might be able to help you.”

“How could such a powerless little mouse ever help me?” That thought made Lion laugh so much that he decided to let Mouse go. A week later, Lion was walking through the jungle on the way to his favorite tree when he stepped onto a hunter’s net. The net scooped him up. No matter how he twisted and turned, he couldn’t escape.

When Mouse heard Lion’s frightened shouts, he raced to help. Mouse quickly chewed(咬)through the ropes to make a hole in the net. Soon, Lion moved out and was free. Lion looked down at the little mouse, “Thank you for saving my life,” said Lion, smiling his widest smile. “I was mistaken. You are not a powerless little mouse. You are a great friend!”

These days China has surprised the world with its new great inventions —— high-speed railways, Alipay(支付宝), shared bicycles and online shopping.

Lin Jinlong, a student from Cambodia enjoys his life in China and says, “my wallet is not used anymore. I can buy and eat whatever I want just with a tap(轻敲) of my phone. Even fruit sellers are using Alipay.” He laughed, “We can also order food at home, super fast and easy, but when I was in Cambodia, I had to go outside.”

Another student from Cambodia, Wu Mei, shared her experience of taking Chinese high-speed railway. It only takes half an hour from Beijing to Tianjin. For the same distance, people in Cambodia may spend three hours sitting on the train because there are only two railways.

Bernhard Schwartlander, World Health Organization Representative(世界卫生组织代表) in China is very excited about China’s bike-sharing. In his opinion, shared bikes are bringing bikes to people’s lives and they are making people start to use public transport(公共交通) such as buses and trains more often in modern time. “Also as we all know, it could mean a lot to our environment.” He explained.
