Once upon a time, there was a little sparrow. This sparrow was always looking for something to eat and one morning he found a big bean. But before he
1
it, he wanted to wash his feathers. He hid the bean on a bridge and flew down to the
2
below to clean up.
“I just can’t wait for my wonderful
3
,” the sparrow said to himself. Then he
4
his way back up to the bridge. “I won’t have to work for a week!” But suddenly he found the bean was
5
!
As the sparrow flew around looking for his lost treasure, he saw a
6
coming over the bridge. “
7
! Can you help me find my bean?” the sparrow asked. “Please, do I look like I have time to find a tiny bean? Find it
8
,” said the farmer as he walked away.
Next, the sparrow saw a soldier coming over the bridge. He asked the soldier the
9
question. “Please, little bird, I have no time for you,” he said and walked on. Then a minister (大臣) came, but
10
the sparrow could even ask, he walked away. The little bird
11
gave up hope, when the king came over the bridge, riding on an elephant. The sparrow asked his question again, but the king didn’t even
12
him. The sparrow sat on the bridge,
13
and sad.
An ant came by. After he heard the sparrow’s story, he went
14
to the elephant. “Tell the king to find that poor bird’s
15
, or I will go inside your ear and bite you!”
