It is winter and it is snowing heavily outside.

It is winter and it is snowing heavily outside. The little rabbit who loves to stay in bed wraps himself in a warm blanket and does not want to come out. The little fox came to wake up the little rabbit: "The sun is coming up, it is time to get up." "No, I don't want to get up." The little rabbit hid his whole body in the soft blanket, and bulged up in the bed. "What reason do I have to get up when it's so comfortable under the covers and so cold outside?" The little fox sat down on the edge of the bed and poked the big bulge: "Because I brought you fresh carrots for breakfast, each bite is crunchy and sweet, is this reason enough to get you up?" The big bulge twisted and lifted a slit, revealing a pair of fuzzy rabbit ears and the bunny's muffled voice: "That's a good reason, but it's not enough to get me out of bed." The little fox wrapped his arms around the big bulge and whispered, "When we finish breakfast, we'll sit together in front of the roaring fireplace, open that new picture book, and I'll read all the stories in it to you." The little rabbit's head came out from under the covers and inclined his head to look at the little fox: "That's a good reason too, but I still can't let go of my little comforter." "Well ......" the little fox thought carefully and looked out the window, the snow had stopped and accumulated in a thick layer, everywhere was white. "When we finish reading the picture book, we can go outside and build a little snowman, use a carrot to make its nose and a round fruit kernel to make its eyes, it must be very nice." "Well, I'm a little bit moved now." The little rabbit's two paws also peeled out of the nest and stared seriously at the little fox, "But I still want a better reason." "And a better reason ......," the little fox got up from the bed, paced around with his hands behind his back, and then laughed, "We can also call our good friends, the little monkey and the little cat, and we can all squeeze snowballs and have snowball fights together. It'll be so much fun!" "Wow." The bunny couldn't help but sit up from his bed, his pretty eyes shining with anticipation, "That sounds like a great reason!" "Then get up." The little fox said and tried to go and get the little rabbit out of the blanket. But the little rabbit quickly went under the covers again and hid: "No, no, I still don't want to get up!" The little fox looked helplessly at the round ball in the bed again, no matter how to persuade, the little rabbit refused to come out, so the little fox could only walk towards the outside while saying, "Little rabbit, if you don't get up, I will have to eat breakfast alone, read picture books alone, and build little snowmen alone, I will feel very lonely." Before the words left his mouth, a little furry fellow suddenly popped out of the nest, jumped behind the little fox and hugged him tightly, refusing to let go. That was the little rabbit that finally willing to get up. "That's reason enough." The little rabbit rubbed its head against the little fox lively, smiling happily. "So I've decided to get up!"
