One day，a little monkey and a little fox went out to play．They saw an apple tree on the other side of the river．There were many big and red apples on it．But there was bridge over the river．The monkey though hard and had an idea．They pulled down a tree and put it over the fiver as a bridge．

The monkey said，“My old friend，you go there first．” But after the fox went to the other side，he kicked（踢）the m into the fiver and m to the apple tree．“How can I get there without the tree?” cried the monkey．The fox laughed and said，“You just stand there and watch me eating the apples．” The monkey was very angry．

Suddenly it began to rain．The water level（水位）in the river rose and the tree flew away（漂走）with the water．“You can eat all the apples．But you can’t come back，” shouted the monkey．

The fox stopped eating and looked at the monkey sadly．
