小猫钓鱼

这是6月的一个早晨。猫妈妈早早地起了床，她对她的孩子们说：“今天天气好。起来吧，孩子们，我们钓鱼去。我要教你们怎样钓鱼去。”听了妈妈的话，小猫们唱啊，跳啊。小小猫说：“太好了，我们可以在河边玩了。”她的姐妹们说：“你错了，我们是去钓鱼的，不是去玩的。”“好，好，好，你们钓你们的鱼，我钓我的鱼。”

猫妈妈把孩子们带到河边，找了一个地方坐下来。猫妈妈说：“孩子们，你们必须保持安静，你们的眼睛必须看着钓鱼竿。当鱼吃鱼竿上的食物的时候，鱼竿会向下弯曲，你们就要抬起鱼竿，鱼竿的钓鱼线上就会挂着一条鱼。”

小猫们非常兴奋，小小猫说：“妈咪，你不用说那么多，这太简单了，我会做。”

小猫们坐在河边开始钓鱼。她们安安静静地看着钓鱼竿，过了些时候，没有鱼来。小小猫站了起来，她先是去摘花，然后在草地上唱歌、跳舞；她一会儿爬上树，一会儿又跳下树。猫妈妈走过来说：“回去钓鱼，眼睛看着钓鱼竿。”小小猫又坐下来，她看着钓鱼竿，但是还不见鱼来。隔了一会儿，一只蝴蝶飞过来停在鱼竿上。小小猫拉起鱼竿，收起线，就在这时，蝴蝶飞走了。小小猫放下鱼竿，追赶蝴蝶。蝴蝶停在花上，小小猫朝着花跑去；蝴蝶飞到树上，小小猫跑过去爬上树，蝴蝶又飞走了。蝴蝶和猫玩游戏，小小猫一直在后面追。

太阳落山了，猫妈妈说：“过来，孩子们，让我们看看今天钓了多少鱼。晚餐我们吃鱼吧。”小猫们齐声欢呼，小小猫却低着头，因为她一条鱼也没钓着。
