Chinese New Year was fast approaching and all the animals of the zodiac wanted to play a song for Chinese New Year. So, they prepared their instruments and began to practice. 

The rat, ox, tiger and rabbit prepared their Guzheng. Dragon, snake, horse, and goat prepared their Erhu. The monkey, rooster, dog and pig prepared their horn.  

The night of the big show arrived, all the animals were ready to go. They started their instruments and then (sounds of a band falling apart). Oh no! It was a disaster!     I guess animals shouldn’t play instruments. 

​

 中国的新年快到了，十二生肖的动物们想为中国新年演奏一首歌。于是，他们准备了乐器，开始练习。 

老鼠、牛、老虎和兔子准备了古筝。龙、蛇、马和羊准备了二胡。猴子、鸡、狗和猪准备了喇叭。 

演出那天晚上，所有的动物都准备好了。他们开始演奏乐器。突然，乐器都出了问题。噢，不！乐队搞砸了！    

我就知道，动物们就不该玩乐器。
