“Mice and Lions”
It was a beautiful morning in early spring. The sun was shining so brightly that it was impossible to stay in. That was the reason why Tom Robinson, who was a young biology teacher, decided to take his class to London Zoo. He phoned his pupils and said that he would meet them at the zoo. He wanted to show his class some rare species of animals, especially mammals, as that was the subject they were doing at the moment. So Tom Robinson took his class directly to the cages where animals of savannas were kept. Not far from the cages there were big baskets for rubbish, where people who bought ice creams and other things could throw the papers from them. While Tom was looking at the lions and thinking of those beautiful huge creatures, he forgot about his pupils for a second. When he turned to them again, he was surprised to see that there was nobody near the lions’ cages. But he was even more surprised when he saw a crowd around the rubbish basket. He went towards the crowd. They were his class. He looked over their heads and saw a little mouse which was running about among the pieces of paper in the basket and looking for bits of food. It was only a few centimetres from the children, but it was not afraid, and the children were happy and more interested in this small, common mouse than the wonderful lions.
“Мыши и Львы”
Было прекрасное утро ранней весны. Солнце светило так ярко, что оставаться в помещении было невозможно. Именно по этой причине Том Робинсон, который был молодым учителем биологии, решил повести свой класс в Лондонский зоопарк. Он позвонил своим ученикам и сказал, что встретится с ними в зоопарке. Он хотел показать своему классу несколько редких видов животных, особенно млекопитающих, поскольку именно это они сейчас и изучали. Итак, Том Робинсон повел свой класс прямо к клеткам, где содержались животные саванны. Недалеко от клеток стояли большие корзины для мусора, куда люди, купившие мороженое и другие вещи, могли выбросить от них бумаги в эти корзины. Пока Том смотрел на львов и думал об этих прекрасных огромных животных, он на секунду забыл о своих учениках. Когда он снова повернулся к ним, то с удивлением увидел, что возле львиных клеток никого нет. Но еще больше он удивился, когда увидел толпу вокруг мусорной корзины. Он направился к толпе. Это был его класс. Он посмотрел поверх их голов и увидел маленькую мышку, которая бегала между листками бумаги в корзине и искала кусочки еды. Она находилась всего в нескольких сантиметрах от детей, но их не боялась, и дети были счастливы и больше интересовались этой маленькой, обыкновенной мышкой, чем чудесными львами.
