动物笑话|The cheese and the mouse

One day a lady saw^{1 a mouse running2 across3 her kitchen floor. She was4 very afraid of mouse, so she ran5 out of the house, got6 into a bus and went to the shops. There she bought a mousetrap（捕鼠器） . The shopkeeper8 said9 to her, Put some cheese in it and you will soon catch that mouse.}

The lady went home with her mousetrap, but when she looked in her cupboard（碗柜） , she could^{10 not find any cheese in it. She did11 not want to go back to the shop, because it was very late, so she cut a picture of some cheese out of a magazine12 and put that in the trap7.}

Surprisingly, the picture of the cheese was quite successful^{13! When the lady came14 down to the kitchen the next morning she found15 a picture of a mouse in the trap beside the picture of the cheese!}
