An Unusual Friendship　不同尋常的友誼

在我們的印象中，不同種類的動物好像很難成為朋友。但下面這貓與熊不同尋常的友誼，會打破你對動物間友誼的固有印象。一起來看看吧！

Have you ever heard of friendships among animals？ At a zoo in Germany， an unusual friendship developed between a cat and a bear.

No one is quite sure how the friendship first began. One day， some workers in the zoo noticed a black cat was in the bear's cage， and the two animals were playing together peacefully. They were surprised how well the small cat seemed to get along with the large bear. The bear keeper allowed the cat to stay with the bear. And later the pair and their unusual friendship became a hot topic at the zoo.

After several years， a new cage was built for the bear. However， the cat was still in the same cage， so it walked around angrily and cried to be with the bear. The bear keeper finally took pity on the cat and let it stay with the bear. The cat and the bear got

closer than before. They often sat together and shared meals in the sun.

Sometimes it may be natural for animals to have their own ideas about who would make good friends.These may surprise humans， who usually expect animals to form relationships with others of the same species.

你聽說過動物之間的友誼么？在德國的一個動物園，在一只貓和一只熊之間發(fā)展出了一段友誼。

沒人能說得清楚這段友誼是怎么開始的。有一天，動物園的幾名工作人員發(fā)現一只黑貓在熊的籠子里，而且兩只動物還在平和地嬉戲。他們很詫異一只小貓是如何和大熊相處得這么好。熊的飼養(yǎng)員允許貓和熊待在一起。從那以后，這一對和他們之間不同尋常的友誼就成為動物園的熱門話題。

幾年之后，熊有了一個新籠子。可是，貓還是在之前的同一個籠子里，因此貓憤怒地走來走去，大聲尖叫想和熊在一起。熊的飼養(yǎng)員最后還是可憐這只貓，讓它和熊待在一起了。這只貓和熊的關系比之前更好了。它們經常坐在一起在陽光下分享午餐。

有時候對動物們而言，自己決定想和誰做朋友也許是正常的。這可能會讓人類感到意外，因為他們總是習慣性覺得動物和同類做朋友。
