Good evening, ladies and gentlemen, I’m Roy , and this is my show．This is a television show for all families, and I know you’ll enjoy it．

    Let’s start with a story． Once there was a proud pig on a farm． He thought he was the most important of all the animals on the farm．But it was not enough that he himself thought this: he had to be sure that other animals thought it, too．So he went up to a chicken and asked, “ Who is the most important animal on the farm?” The chicken answered, “ You are, Mr. Pig ．” Then he asked a dog, and he got the same reply．

    Next, he asked a cow． When the cow seemed uncertained of the right answer, the pig looked angry, and showed his teeth, “ Oh, you are, of course, Mr. Pig．” said the cow． “ Of course, ” the pig said, “ there is no doubt about it． ”

    At last the pig asked a big horse the same question．The horse lifted one foot, rolled the pig over and placed his foot on the pig’s head． “ I think you know the answer now． ” said the horse．
