<p class="MsoNormal" style="MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 21.75pt;"><font size="3"><span lang="EN-US"><font face="Times New Roman">Nobody knows when i</font></span><span lang="EN-US"><font face="Times New Roman">t started that a cat always likes to catch a mouse. And a mouse always tries to escape when it sees a cat. Therefore,, all the mice hate cats very much.</font></span></font></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 21.75pt;"><span lang="EN-US"><font face="Times New Roman" size="3">Because of this, mice all wished to find a powerful friend to help them fight against cats. Therefore, when a couple of senior mice’s only daughter grew old enough to get married, they decided to find a very strong powerful son-in-law to challenge cats.</font></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 21.75pt;"><span lang="EN-US"><font face="Times New Roman" size="3">When the senior male mouse left home to look for his son-in-law candidate, the sun hung on in the sky. It was close to the noontime. The hot sunshine made every creature try to escape. The sun was surely the most powerful creature in the universe, the mouse thought. So he asked the sun to be his son-in-law.</font></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 21.75pt;"><span lang="EN-US"><font face="Times New Roman" size="3">Unexpectedly, the sun replied that he was not the most powerful, as the cloud often blocked the sunshine, so the cloud might be much more powerful than him. The sun suggested the senior mouse to consult with the cloud.</font></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 21.75pt;"><span lang="EN-US"><font face="Times New Roman" size="3">When the senior mouse went to see the cloud, the cloud immediately said that the wind was much more powerful than him, as the wind always blew him away. The senior mouse agreed with the cloud, so he visited the wind to discuss this question.</font></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 21.75pt;"><span lang="EN-US"><font face="Times New Roman" size="3">After listening to the senior mouse’s story, the wind answered frankly that every time when he blew a strong wind, people would immediately go into their houses. With a wall to block, the wind could not penetrate through the wall. Therefore, the wind concluded that the wall should be stronger than him. He advised the senior mouse to check with the wall.</font></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 21.75pt;"><span lang="EN-US"><font face="Times New Roman" size="3">Then, the senior mouse came to the clay wall wishing it to be his son-in-law. The wall listened to the mouse’s request, he sighed deeply and said that in his opinion, he considered mice to be the most dreadful, as they always dug a hole at a wall corner as their caves.</font></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 21.75pt;"><span lang="EN-US"><font face="Times New Roman" size="3">After such a long trip, the senior male mouse returned home. He told his wife, the senior female mouse, “We need not beg others one by one. We, ourselves, are the moust powerful.” Then they found a handsome young male mouse as their son-in-law.</font></span></p>&nbsp;
