The old man is very angry. He beats his cat. He says: “You are a fool cat. I will punish you!” the cat is very sad. He thinks:“When I was young, I worked hard for you. Now you don’t like me because I’m too old to work. You should know you are old, too.”

老人很生氣,他打了小貓,并且對它說:“你這隻蠢貓!我要懲罰你!”貓非常傷心,它想:“在我還年輕的時候,我為你努力工作。現在你卻因為我太老了不能工作而不喜歡我。你應該知道你也老了。”
