The lion and the jackal

There is a story about a jackal who was going to be

eaten by a lion. The jackal said to the lion: "No, please,

you can't eat me! You can't eat me! This will be a great

mistake. If you eat me, that'll be terrible, that will be a

disaster, that will be the end of the world!"

The lion was very puzzled and said: "How come? How

come if I eat you, the world will end?" The jackal said:

"Because if you eat me, that will be the end of the

world for me!"

有只狼快被狮子吃掉了。狼对狮子说：「求求你不要吃我！

你不能吃我，这是一个天大的错误！如果你吃了我，那就惨了，

会有灾难、会世界末日！」

　狮子满脸疑惑地问：「为什么把你吃掉就会世界末日？」
　狼回答：「如果你吃了我，就是我的世界末日啊！」
