NAME:

The grasshopper and the ant

On a summer's day, the Cigarra sang happily. Meanwhile, an Ant passed by. She was tired, painfully carrying a grain of corn that she dragged to the anthill.

─ Why don't you stay here talking to me for a while, instead of getting so tired? asked the Cicada.

"I need to collect food for the winter," Ant replied. ─ I advise you to do the same. ─ Why should I worry about winter? There is no lack of food… ─ replied the Cicada, looking around. Formiga didn't answer, continued her work and left.

When winter came, Cicada had nothing to eat. However, he saw that the Ants had a lot of food because they had saved it for the summer. They distributed it daily among themselves and were not hungry like her. Cicada understood that she had done wrong...

Moral of the story: Don't just think about having fun. Study to have a better life in the future.
