Голицынский, 7-е издание – Артикль – Упражнение 32

It was a hot day. The sun was shining brightly in the blue sky. A wolf and a lamb met at a stream. The water in the stream was cool and clear. The wolf saw that the lamb was fat and wanted to eat it. He began to shout, “You, fool, you are making the water dirty!” The lamb was afraid. It looked at the wolf and said in a thin voice, “But, Mr Wolf, I cannot make the water dirty for you from the place where I am standing, because the stream runs from you to me. “Step talking!” shouted the wolf in an angry voice. “I know you! I met you six months ago, and you were very rude to me. “You are wrong, Mr Wolf,” cried the lamb, “you could not have met me six months ago: I am only four months old. “Never mind,” said the wolf, “if it wasn’t you, it was your brother.” And with these words he seized the poor lamb and carried it into the wood.
