The rats's meetingある家にネズミを捕まえるのがとても上手な猫が1匹いました
There was a cat that was very good at catching rats in a house.おかげでネズミたちはいつもビクビク
Thanks to that cat, the rats were very afraid, they couldn't get out of their mouseholes巣からも出られず、お腹はいつもペコペコでした。
and they were always hungry.そこである日、ネズミたちが集まって会議を開きました。
One day, they gathered together and held a meeting.すると、一匹の若いネズミが言いました。
Then, one young rat said.「ネコの首に鈴をつけましょう。 そうすれば、ネコが来るのがすぐにわかるでしょう。
"Let's put a bell on the cat's neck. Then we will immediately know that the cat is coming.チリンチリンと、音がしたら、さっさと逃げればいいのです」
If we hear the sound of the bell, we should run away as fast as we can."「賛成」「賛成」
"Agree. Agree."みんなは、手を叩いて喜びました。
The rats clapped their hands happily.その時、一匹の年寄りネズミが言いました。
Then one old rat said.「それは良い考えだ。だが、誰がネコの首に鈴をつけに行ってくれるのかな?」
"That is a good idea. But, who will put the bell on the cat's neck?"とたんに、みんなは黙り込んでしまいました。
Suddenly everyone was quiet, they didn't say a word.みんなネコを怖がって、鈴をつけに行くネズミは一匹もいなかったのです。
All of them were scared of cat, so they couldn't come near the cat and put the bell on.良い作戦があっても、それを実行出来る人がいなければ、どうにもなりません。
