"Cat and Mouse in Partnership" is a German fairy tale collected by the Brothers Grimm in Grimms' Fairy Tales.
A cat and a mouse, contrary to the custom of their kinds, become friends, such good friends that they decide to share a home. That they might have something to fall back on in time of need, they buy a pot of fat and hide it away in a nook of a church for safekeeping. After a short time, the cat tells her housemate that one of her relations has given birth and that she has been asked to be godmother. Instead of going to a christening, though, the cat goes to the nook of the church and eats the top layer of the fat in the pot. When the cat returns home, the mouse asks the name of the kitten. The cat replies, "Top-off." The mouse remarks that she has never heard such a name.
Soon thereafter, the cat announces that she again has been invited to a christening. On the cat's return, the mouse asks what name was given to this kitten. "Half-gone," answers the cat. Again the mouse wonders aloud at the oddness of the name.
The cat goes a third time to the church, this time finishing off the fat. When the cat returns, the mouse asks the name given at this christening. "All-gone," answers the cat. Again the mouse shakes her head.

Listening is recognized as being an important factor in education.
Poor listening behaviors lead to negative academic performance and can lead to numerous negative consequences, including physical, psychological, and monetary loss. Listening is a communicative skill that is vital for students, not only in their present academic work, but also in their future lives.
While subtitles are considered a primary learning support tool for people who cannot understand video narration in foreign languages, recent advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) technologies have played a pivotal role in automatic subtitling on online video platforms such as YouTube.
Subtitles provide a textual translation of a video's dialogue. Traditionally, subtitles assume the viewer can hear the audio but cannot understand the language. The exception to this is subtitles for the D/deaf and hard of hearing, which assume the viewer cannot hear the audio or understand the language.
Because we naturally read text that appears on a screen, using captions and subtitles can help boost literacy skills in a fun and engaging way.
Reading subtitles while you listen to audio can help you do that eye-ear training. Subtitles also help us learn English by: Increasing reading speed and comprehension. Increasing familiarity with vocabulary and the sounds of a language.
Subtitles promote improved retention, accessibility, better comprehension, and cultural exposure, she said. 'In my opinion, these all have a positive impact on the viewer experience. ' However, the TikTok trend in which viewers claim they 'can't hear without the subtitles on' suggests they are less able to multitask.
When you learn a new language, it's important to get a lot of exposure to it. One of the best ways to do this is by watching movies and TV shows in your target language. In general, it's better for you to watch foreign-language videos with subtitles, rather than without them.
You may also find it difficult to hear dialogue over the musical score and special effects. Using subtitles allows your brain to connect sounds with written words, improving your speech comprehension. That also reduces the amount of energy your brain uses to hear.
We all need subtitles !
