It was the best of times, it was the worst of times. It was the season of light, it was the season of darkness. It was the spring of hope, it was the winter of sadness. It was the year one thousand seven hundred and seventy-five.

In France there was a King and a Queen, and in England there was a King and a Queen. They believed that nothing would ever change. But in France things were bad, and getting worse. The people were poor, hungry and unhappy. The King made paper money and spent it, and the people had nothing to eat. Behind closed doors in the homes of the people, voices spoke in whispers against the King and his noblemen; they were only whispers, but they were the angry whispers of desperate people.

A fox had never seen a lion before, and when he finally encountered one for the first time，he was so terrified that he almost died of fright. When he met him the second time, he was still afraid but managed to conceal his fear. When he saw him the third time, he was so emboldened that he went up to him and began having a familiar conversation with him.

Moral:  Familiarity breeds contempt!

Boys and girls,come out to play.

The moon doth shine as bright as day.

Leave your supper and leave your sleep.

And join your playfellows in the street.

Come with a whoop,and come with a call,

Come with a good will or not at all.

 Up the ladder and down the wall,

  A penny loaf will serve us all.

Jacques Prevert

Thousands and thousands of years

Would not be enough

To tell of

That small second of eternity

When you held me

When I held you

One morning

In winter's light

In Montsouris Park

In Paris

On earth

This earth

That is a star

一千年一万年，

也难以诉说尽，

这瞬间的永恒。

你吻了我，

我吻了你。

在冬日朦胧的清晨，

清晨在蒙苏利公园，

公园在巴黎，

巴黎是地上一座城，

地球是天上一颗星。
