Answer 2

It was late autumn, and a hungry fox was wandering through the forest in search of food. Unfortunately, he couldn't find anything to eat. Frustrated, he eventually arrived at a lake, hoping to find some fish.

"There must be some fish here," the fox thought to himself. "If I can catch one, I'll have a good dinner." He spotted a few fish swimming in the lake, but they were too fast for him to catch. The fox realized that he couldn't swim, which made the situation even more challenging.

"How can I catch them?" the fox pondered. In an attempt to lure the fish closer, he called out, "Little fishes!"

However, the fish couldn't hear him from the lake. "We cannot hear you," they replied.

"Come nearer," the fox suggested. "You can come on land and live in peace as I do. You will always find something to eat in the forest, and you will get to meet many friends."

The fish were skeptical. "He must be so stupid if he tells us to come on land," they thought to themselves. They knew that it would be dangerous for them to leave the safety of the water.

And so, the hungry fox was left disappointed, unable to catch any fish. But he continued his search for food in the forest, hoping to find something else to satisfy his hunger.
