The Cake and Small Ants
The mouse was nibbling the cake left over by some picnickers when the cat came over and said the cake was his. The mouse stopped and argued with the cat.
The duck walked past, saw the cake and said, “That’s my cake.” Then came along the chicken, followed by the lamb. All of them said that the cake belonged to them. While they were quarrelling, an army of ants carried the cake away.
“Where’s my cake?” the mouse screamed. “You took my cake?” the mouse said to the cat. The cat turned to the duck and called him a thief. The animal had a big fight over the big cake.
In the meantime, the ants had taken the cake to their hiding place and were enjoying the cake. “yummy! Isn’t this cake a real treat?” one ant asked. Hearing the question, all of the other ants burst out laughing. (Taken from ‘English Workout’ BETTERGRADES)
