A Cabra, o Cachorro e a Vaca eram bons amigos. Um dia, eles saíram para um passeio de táxi.

Goat, Dog, and Cow were great friends. One day they went on a journey in a taxi.


Quando chegaram ao fim do passeio, o motorista pediu que pagassem a tarifa. A Vaca pagou sua parte da tarifa.

When they reached the end of their journey, the driver asked them to pay their fares. Cow paid her fare.


O Cachorro pagou um pouco a mais, porque não tinha o valor exato em dinheiro.

Dog paid a bit extra, because he did not have the correct money.


Quando o motorista ia dar o troco para o Cachorro, a Cabra saiu correndo sem pagar.

The driver was about to give Dog his change when Goat ran away without paying anything.


O motorista ficou muito irritado. Ele saiu dirigindo sem dar o troco para o Cachorro.

The driver was very annoyed. He drove away without giving Dog his change.


É por isso, que mesmo hoje, o Cachorro corre atrás dos carros e olha para dentro para encontrar o motorista que lhe deve o troco.

That is why, even today, Dog runs towards a car to peep inside and find the driver who owes him his change.


A Cabra sai correndo quando ouve o barulho de um carro. Ela tem medo de ser presa por não pagar a tarifa do táxi.

Goat runs away from the sound of a car. She is afraid she will be arrested for not paying her fare.


E a Vaca não se incomoda quando um carro está vindo. A vaca atravessa a estrada com toda sua calma porque sabe que pagou sua parte da tarifa.

And Cow is not bothered when a car is coming. Cow takes her time crossing the road because she knows she paid her fare in full.
