Who is the King！

吴沈怡嘉

The King of the forest is old. He needs to find a new King.

Bird： Im helpful. I can fly over rivers and mountain. And I can sing beautiful songs.

Butterfly： Im most helpful！ Im pretty. People are happy to see me， and children are happy to play with me. All the animals like me.

Puppy： Im more helpful than you. I can look after the babies， and catch the thief. I can be everybodys friend.

Elephant： ... [Elephant is sitting on the grass without any words.]

At last， the old King chooses Elephant to be the new King. He says， “The elephant is strong， and he is modest （谦虚的）！”

森林之王老了，他要找个接班人。

鸟儿说：我很能干。我可以飞越山川和河流，我还能唱动听的歌。

蝴蝶说：我才是最有用的。我这么美丽，招人喜爱，孩子们喜欢和我玩，所有动物都喜欢我。

小狗说：我比你们能干多了。我能看孩子，抓小偷。我很忠诚，我是所有人的朋友。

大象：……（大象坐在草地上一言不发）

最后，老国王选了大象当新的森林之王。他说：“大象身体强壮，却最谦卑。”
