The mouse, the cat, and the rooster
A little mouse went into the yard, she walked around and then went back to her mother.
_"Oh, mother, i saw two animals .One fringhting, the other nice.''''
_"Tell me what the animals were like" said the mother.
_" The frighting one was strutting about the yard"''said the mouse."He had black legs, a red comb, goggley eyes and a hooked nose. When i past , he opened his beak, raised his foot and began to shout so loudly that he scared me stiff"
_" That''s the rooster", said the old mouse."he never does anyone any harm.Don''t be afraid of him.But what about the other animal?"
_" The other one was basking in the sun.He had white neck and smooth grey feet.He licked his white chest and waved his tail gently as he looked at me"
_"You are a silly thing!" said the mouse." that was the cat"

go throughout it instead of going around it. It makes you become stronger and
more confident, it makes our life becomes better.

people blame for something or someone.
I dont know why my comment disappeared. :(. I'll post it again.
Trả lờiXóaItem 3
Basing on this cartoon, i quite agree with your message. However, it does not show clearly that people nowadays are more "passive". In my opinion, the cartoon just ironizes people's lack of responsibility in every life fields, which warns everyone to look back themselves.
Item 1: I agree with your view. You can't judge a book by it cover. Sometimes, the appearance does not show the essence. In life, you should never appreciate a person without communicating and listening
Trả lờiXóaitem 3:
Trả lờiXóai agree with Thanh. i don not think the word "passive" is suitable here. it just shows the laziness and irresponsibility of people nowadays
With the cartoon, I somewhat agree with you that human nowadays is rather lazy, they depend on outside more and more. That is reason for you opinion that they are passive?
Trả lờiXóaIt just shows either laziness or irresponsibility of people nowadays. I agree with Giang and Thanh's idea.
Trả lờiXóaI think your item 3 has some problem. i am not sure you are right when you use the word passive in this case.
Trả lờiXóaI think that item 3 is a little magnified because there are many people who are industrious, it is not completely definite to say that people are nowadays lazy.
