But when winter came, the ant had plenty of food while the grasshopper had nothing. “Why did you not work and store up food?” asked the ant. “I was having too much fun singing and dancing,” replied the grasshopper. “Well, now you can sing and dance while you starve,” said the ant, laughing.

It’s a fun learning English (ESL) by such funny English conversations and I thank you for furnishing them!
