The fawn who misses the class

Once upon a time, there was a herd of（一群） forest deer. In this herd was a wise and respected teacher, cunning（狡猾的，巧妙的） in the ways of deer. He taught the tricks and strategies of survival to the young fawns（小鹿，小动物） .

One day, his younger sister brought her son to him, to be taught what is so important for deer. She said, "Oh brother teacher, this is my son. Please teach him the tricks and strategies of deer." The teacher said to the fawn, "Very well, you can come at this time tomorrow for your first lesson."

At first, the young deer came to the lessons as he was supposed to. But soon, he became more interested in playing with the other young bucks（雄鹿） and does. He didn't realize how dangerous it could be for a deer who learned nothing but deer games. So he started cutting classes. Soon he was playing hooky（逃学，旷工） all the time.

Unfortunately, one day the fawn who played hooky stepped in a snare（陷阱，圈套） and was trapped. Since he was missing, his mother worried. She went to her brother the teacher, and asked him, "My dear brother, how is my son? Have you taught your nephew the tricks and strategies of deer?"

The teacher replied, "My dear sister, your son was disobedient（不服从的，违背的） and unteachable. Out of respect for you, I tried my best to teach him. But he did not want to learn the tricks and strategies of deer. He played hooky! How could I possibly teach him? You are obedient（顺从的，服从的） and faithful, but he is not. It is useless to try to teach him."

Later they heard the sad news. The stubborn（顽固的） fawn who played hooky had been trapped and killed by a hunter. He skinned him and took the meat home to his family.

The moral is: Nothing can be learned from a teacher, by one who misses the class.
