A donkey (驴子) looked in through the window and saw the man and the dog.
" Why doesn't he choose me as his pet?" said the donkey. "It is not fair. I work hard, andthe dog only shakes its tail, barks and jumps onto the master's (主人) knee. It is not fair. "
Then the donkey said to himself, "If I do what the dog does, the master may choose me as
his pet. "

Some men came running in with sticks in their hands and they beat the donkey until he ranout of the house.
