This Short Story The Bone in Throat is quite interesting to all the people. Enjoy reading this story.

Once upon a time, there was a lazy wolf living in a jungle. Near his house was a pond. Many animals came to the pond to drink water. The wolf was always in search of food.

One day, he was sitting near the pond hoping to get something to eat. When suddenly he spotted a dead bull. “Aha! What a luck! Now I can eat all I want," he thought and his mouth strated watering.

He began to eat the bull. A thought struck him, “if another beast comes this way he will ask for a share. I had better eat fast." ‘Grub! Grub! Grub! Grub1’ he chewed, faster and faster.

In his haste, a piece of bone got stuck in his throat. “Ohh! Errk!" cried the wolf. He tried to bring it out of his mouth. He tried to cough it out but in vain. Next, he tried to swallow it down but he failed.

“Ooh, the bone in throat hurts. What shall I do now?" thought the wolf. Suddenly he remembered that a crane lived on the nearby riverbank.

The wolf went to the crane and pleaded, “My dear Crane! I have got a bone stuck in my throat. I will give you a present, if you pull it out of my throat with your long beak."

The crane took pity on the wolf. He asked the wolf to look up with his mouth open. The crane then put its head into the wolf’s mouth and pulled out the bone.

“Oh! What a relief!" the wolf sighed.

“Now where is my present?" asked the crane.

“What present?" the wolf replied, pretending not aware of its promise.

“You said that you would give me a present if I remove the bone from your throat," said the crane humbly.

“Hah! Is it not a present that you put your head into my mouth and got out alive? I could have easily crushed your head while your beak was inside my mouth," said the ungrateful wolf and went away.

The crane felt helpless and decided not to help any ungrateful creature in the future.

这个短篇小说《喉咙里的骨头》对所有人来说都很有趣。喜欢读这个故事。

从前，有一只懒狼住在丛林里。他家附近有一个池塘。许多动物来到池塘喝水。狼总是在寻找食物。

一天，他坐在池塘边，想找点吃的。突然他发现一头死公牛。“啊哈！真幸运！“现在我想吃什么就吃什么，”他想，嘴里流着口水。

他开始吃公牛。一个念头打动了他，“如果另一只野兽走这条路，他会要求一份。我最好快点吃。“咕噜！卡兹卡兹！他咀嚼得越来越快。

在他的匆忙中，一块骨头卡在了他的喉咙里。“哦！嗷！”狼叫道。他想把它从嘴里拿出来。他想把它吐出来，但没有成功。接着，他试图吞下它，但失败了。

“哦，喉咙里的骨头疼。我现在该怎么办？”狼想。突然他想起附近河岸上住着一只鹤。

狼走到鹤跟前，恳求道：“我亲爱的鹤！我喉咙里卡住了一根骨头。如果你用你的长嘴把礼物从我的喉咙里拔出来，我就送给你。”

鹤同情狼。他让狼张开嘴抬头看。然后鹤把它的头伸进狼的嘴里，拔出了骨头。

“哦！真是松了一口气！”狼叹了口气。

“现在我的礼物在哪里？”起重机问。

“什么礼物？”狼回答说，假装不知道它的承诺。

“你说过如果我把你喉咙里的骨头取下来，你会给我一份礼物，”鹤谦逊地说。

“哈！你不是把你的头伸进我的嘴里然后活着出来的礼物吗？“当你的嘴在我嘴里的时候，我可以很容易地压扁你的头，”忘恩负义的狼说，然后走开了。

鹤感到无助，决定以后不帮助任何忘恩负义的生物。
