When the fox first saw the lion he was terribly frightened. He ran away, and hid himself in the woods. 

The second time, however, he came near the lion. He stopped at a safe distance, and watched him pass by. 

The third time they came near one another.The fox went straight up to the lion, and stayed the whole day with him. He asked the lion how his family was, and when they would meet again.

They soon became good friends. 

狐狸第一次见到狮子时非常害怕，赶紧藏到森林里。

当他第二次遇到狮子时，则站在附近看狮子经过。

第三次遇到狮子时，他竟有胆量，走了上去，与狮子进行十分亲切的谈话。

不久，他们变成了好朋友。
