(Ladies and getlemen. Good afternoon.Today I’ll tell you a story. It is “Peter and the Wolf”.)

　　Peter: Good morning everyone. What a fine day! How beautiful the green lawn is!

　　Bird: Good morning, Peter.

　　Peter: Good morning, Bird.

　　Bird: It’s a fine morning, isn’t it! All is calm. All is beautiful.

　　Duck: I’m a duck, you see. Peter forgot to lock the door.

　　Now I’m free. How I want to have a good bath in the pool!

　　(Duck jumps into the pool.)

　　Bird: Hi! Who are you? You can’t fly?

　　Duck: Aren’t you a bird! You can’t swim? You see. I can.

　　Bird: You are a fool.

　　Duck: I’m clever. You are a fool.

　　Bird: You are a fool.

　　Duck: I’m clever. You are a fool.

　　(At this time, a black cat is coming quietly.)

　　Cat: Yeh. They are quarrelling. So I have no trouble catching them. Look at me, please.

　　Peter: Take care, Bird. Be careful, Bird.

　　(So the bird flies away.)

　　Duck: You are a thief. Why don’t you catch that bird?

　　Bird: You are a robber. Why don’t you rob me?

　　Cat: Should I go to catch the bird? Should I?

　　I’m afraid when I get there, the bird will fly away.

　　Grandfather: Peter, you see. It is very dangerous here. The duck is running into the pool. If a wolf comes, what should you do then?

　　Peter: I’m a young pioneer. I’m very brave. How can I dare a wolf?

　　(A few minutes later. A very big, cruel wolf comes siletly.

　　The black cat runs away quickly.)

　　Cat, Bird: Oh,! Wolf!

　　Duck: Oh! My dear. The wolf is coming. Let me run quickly.

　　(How can a bird run so fast! Look, the wolf has caught the bird, and eaten him up.)

　　Wolf: How I am satisfied! But I still want to catch the bird and

　　the black cat.

　　(Now Peter and the grandfather see what has happened. They have a good idea now.)

　　Peter: Bird. Please fly over the wolf’s head. You can fly around and around him. But you should be careful enough.

　　Bird: Wolf. Wolf. Can you catch me? You are a fool!

　　Can you catch me? Catch me!

　　(The wolf is so angry that he jumps up and down. At this moment.

　　Peter and his grandfather throw a rope and catches the wolf.)

　　Cat, Bird, Grandfather: Beat him. Beat him. Don’t let him run away.

　　(At this moment. A group of hunters get to the forest. Listen, they are shooting at the wolf.)

　　Peter: Oh, no. Bird and I have caught the wolf. Don’t kill him. Let him alive. Please help us to send him to the zoo.

　　Peter, Grandfather,Hunters, Cat, Bird: Oh! Oh! Let’s go to the zoo. Let’s go to the zoo.

　　(Now please look at the group: Peter, Grandfathe, Hunters,Bird and Cat. They are dragging the wolf and sending him to the zoo. How happy they are!)
