A wild boar was sharpening his tusks against a tree one day when a fox came by.

"What are you doing that for?" asked the fox . "There are no hunters around. Everything looks very peaceful to me ."

"Quite true, "said the boar, "but when the hunter does come with his dogs I shall be too busy running away to have time for this . So let me sharpen my tusks while I can."

Be Ppared .

野豬和狐貍

有一天，野豬在樹上磨牙齒，狐貍走過來。

"你為什么干這個呀?"狐貍問，"附近又沒有獵人，我覺得平安無事。"

"不錯，"野豬說，"但是，如果獵人真的帶著獵狗來了，我只能逃走，就沒工夫干這個了。趁我現(xiàn)在可以磨，就讓我磨磨牙齒吧。"

時刻準備著(有備無患)
