One day a lady saw
a mouse running across her kitchen floor. She was very afraid
of mouse, so she ran out of the house, got into a bus and went
to the shops. There she bought a mousetrap. The shopkeeper said
to her, "Put some cheese in it and you will soon catch that mouse."
The lady went home
with her mousetrap, but when she looked in her cupboard, she could
not find any cheese in it. She did not want to go back to the
shop, because it was very late, so she cut a picture of some cheese
out of a magazine and put that in the trap.
Surprisingly, the
picture of the cheese was quite successful! When the lady came
down to the kitchen the next morning she found a picture of a
mouse in the trap beside the picture of the cheese!
