    “You look well enough,” said the monkey. “But just look at me. Every time I turn lily back,the other animals laugh at me."

    “Why do the other animals laugh at you?” asked the donkey. “You look all right to me."

    “They laugh at my flmny-boking 如"(尾巴) ，” said the monkey. “In fact,if I have a great tail,I will be a beautiful animal!”

    A mole(鼹鼠) heard the talk between the donkey and the monkey.

    “Hold your towgwes (舌头) ，both of you,” said the mole. uYou should be thankful for what you have. How would you like to be a mole? The moles have no horns at all. The moles have no tail to speak of. The moles live in the dark most of the time. The moles are almost blind”

    The donkey and the monkey said no more about the things they did not have.

    We should be satisfied with what we have. There are always others not as we" (处境好的) as ourselves.
