It is a bright spring morning. A Tortoise walks by and meets a Rabbit.
一個春光明媚的早晨。一只烏龜正在往前走,這時他遇到了一只兔子。
Tortoise: Hi there, Mr. Rabbit. Beautiful day, isn't it?
烏龜：嘿，你好，兔子先生。今天天氣真好，不是嗎？
Rabbit: Aren't you "the Slow Tortoise"?
兔子：你是那個“慢吞吞的烏龜”嗎？
The Tortoise is a little mad, but he doesn't show it. The Tortoise still tries to be nice to the Rabbit.
烏龜有點生氣了，但是他并沒有表現出來。烏龜仍然試著對兔子友好些。

兔子：不了，謝謝！我不想做你的朋友。
Tortoise: How come?
烏龜：為什么？
Rabbit: Your legs are too short. You can't jump. And you are too slow.
兔子：你的腿太短了，你不會跳，而且你動作太慢!
Tortoise: My legs may be short. And I may be slow. But I can still beat you in a race.
烏龜：我的腿是短，我可能是很慢，但我還是可以在賽跑中贏你。
