One day，all the forest animals were gathered together to watch a big race. Tired of Speedy Hare’s constant bragging, Poky Tortoise had challenged Speedy Hare to a race. Most of the animals didn’t think that Poky Tortoise would stand a chance to win against Speedy Hare.

Poky Tortoise and Speedy Hare were crouching at the starting line when they heard the starter’s gun. In a few seconds, Speedy Hare was already out of sight. Meanwhile, Poky Tortoise plodded down the track at his regular slow pace. He was far behind Speedy Hare but moving forward steadily.

After running for a little while, Poky Tortoise was nowhere insight so Speedy Hare decided he would take a nap. He found a big tree at the roadside and lay down under the tree.

“What a nice day it is! I like the warm breeze and this is a perfect place for a nap.” said Speedy. Soon he was fast asleep.

Meanwhile, Poky Tortoise, at his slow and steady pace, inched closer and closer to the finish line. In fact, Speedy Hare was still snoring when the loud cheers from the forest animals woke him up.

“Where am I?” he said to himself. Speedy Hare could’t believe his eyes! From over the hill, he could see Poky Tortoise was on the home stretch!

Speedy Hare jumped up. As fast as a streak of lightning he hopped towards the finish line but it was too late. Poky Tortoise had just crossed over the finish line. The slow old Tortoise had beaten the cocky speedy Hare!

有一天，森林里的动物们都跑来了，准备参观一场大赛事。因为兔子SPEEDY经常在乌龟POKY面前吹牛，说自己跑得多快，乌龟听得烦死了，于是向兔子提出挑战，要跟他赛跑。大伙儿都觉得乌龟根本就没有机会跑赢兔子。

乌龟POKY和兔子SPEEDY蹲在起跑线上，忽然听到比赛的枪声响了。一会儿的功夫，兔子就跑得不见影儿了，乌龟呢？他正在跑道上慢慢地往前挪呢，虽然已经落后了很多，可是乌龟仍然迈着平稳的脚步继续前进着。

跑了一会儿，兔子SPEEDY看不见乌龟了，于是决定睡一小觉。他发现路边有棵树，就躺在树下了。

“今天的天气多好啊！温暖的微风吹着真舒服，在这棵树底下睡觉是再好不过的了。”SPEEDY说。很快他就完全睡着了。

这个时候，乌龟POKY正慢慢地，一步一步地往前走，离终点线越来越近，可是兔子还在树底下打呼噜呢，直到观众们的欢呼声把他吵醒了。

“我在哪儿呀？”兔子自言自语地问。当他看到小山的那边，乌龟已经快要达到终点的时候，他简直不能相信自己的眼睛。

兔子SPEEDY跳了起来，闪电般地朝着终点冲去，可是已经太迟，乌龟POKY抢先冲线了。又老又慢的乌龟，终于跑赢了骄傲的飞毛腿兔子！
