(A)
A man lives in a big house. He likes his house, but he hates the mice in it. One day, he buys a big cat from the market to eat the mice. After a few days, the cat kills many mice. The mice become very worried. They decide to do something to save their lives, so all the mice come together to discuss it. They have many plans, but none of them is good or useful.
At last, a young mouse stands up and says, "I'll show you what we can do. We can put a bell around the cat's neck. Then if the cat comes, we can run away because we can hear the bell ring. " All the mice agree and say it's a good idea. Then an old mouse stands up and asks, "The point is which of us will tie the bell to the cat's neck?" No one says anything because no one dares to do it.
