There are some new fables to practise on EnglishClub.com. These are short stories with morals. You probably know them in your own language. Some of the language is a bit outdated, but most of it is useful. You can practise reading them in this group.

  • Dear Nadira, Martin, Zarha, Oksana,

    I wanted to listen to my friend's fables, but i couldn't. Could it be because they were posted out of  a vocaroo delay ? I am sorry dear friends, i wanted to comment your post, but i can not, as i can not hear you.

     

    Wishing you all a wonderful weekend.

      Why not  try switching  to  audio boo?   I found  much problems  with  Vocaroo too>

    • Dear Nadira,

      I have tried Audio boo, but my computer doesn't seem to accept it. I guess i have to download something to be allowed to open audio boo. I will look to set it up as soon as i have more time. Thanks for the suggestion.

  • The Lion and and the Bulls

     A lion often prowled about a pasture where three bulls grazed them together. He had tried without success to lure one or the other of them to the edge of the pasture. He had even attempted a direct attack,only to see them form a ring so that from whatever direction he approached he was met by the horns of one of them.

     Then a plan began to form in the lion's mind. Secretly he started spreading evil and slanderous reports of one bull against the other. The three bulls,distrustingly,began to avoid one another,and each withdrew to  a different part of the pasture to graze. Of course, this was exactly what the lion wanted. One by one he fell upon the bulls,and so made easy prey of them all.

    Moral: United we stand; divided we fall.

    Critical viewing: Why might a lion be more successful sneaking up on its prey than attacking directly? Love to hear your opinion.

    • Well done Miley :)
