Text for Listening

I. A
On a hot summer day, a fox comes upon an orchard and sees a bunch of
ripened grapes. It thinks: “Just what I need to quench my thirst.” It moves back a few
paces, runs, and jumps but falls short of reaching the grapes. It tries in different ways
to reach the bunch of grapes, but in vain. It finally gives up, and says to himself “I am
sure they are sour anyway.”

B.

Once, a Lion sat thinking by himself. He had sharp, strong claws and teeth and
was a beast with immense strength. Yet, whenever he heard a Cock crowing, he
would be extremely scared.

The Lion, thus, complained, “Can a life like this be worth living? I am one of
the strongest and the bravest and yet, a lowly creature, such as, a Cock has the
power
to rob my life of its charm by simply crowing!”
Just then, a huge Elephant came along, flapping his ears to and fro, with an air
of great concern. “What troubles you so?” asked the Elephant.

The Lion thought of sharing his grief with the Elephant and asked him, “Can
anything harm a beast like you who has tremendous bulk and strength?” The
Elephant replied, “Do you see this little bee? If he ever stings the innermost parts of
my ear, I will go mad with pain.”

The Lion understood that even the strongest creatures have weak points. He
gained self-confidence and decided never to let troubles overshadow his joys in life.
