Two little tigers who traveled all the way from the deep mountains became students of the Learned Cat. Hungry and eager, their first lesson was learning how to hunt prey. The Learned Cat decided to start with physical education, diligently teaching the little tigers all its skills. However, after learning, the little tigers wanted to eat their teacher. Just as they launched an attack, the Learned Cat effortlessly climbed up a tree. The little tigers, having never learned how to climb, could only stare helplessly at their teacher from below. Realizing their skills were far from matching their teacher’s, they resolved to study hard under its guidance. The Learned Cat believed that literacy should be the foundation of learning, so it began teaching the two little tigers to read—specifically, Chinese characters.
