三只小猪

Once upon a time, a mother pig and her three children lived in a village. One day, the mother pig called the three pigs together. " You've grown up, my dear children. It's time for you to seek your fortune, " she said. " Build your houses and live on your own. "

很久以前，在一个遥远的小山村里，住着猪妈妈和她的三个宝宝。 一天，猪妈妈把三只小猪召集到一起。 “你们长大了，应该独立生活啦。等你们盖好自己的房子后就搬出去住吧。”她说道。

The first little pig was very lazy. He decided to build a house with straw, because he thought this was the easiest way. So he went to a straw seller and begged, " I'm a homeless little pig. Give me some straw so that I can build a house with it. " The straw seller gave him some straw. The first little pig built a house with it in a day and moved into the straw house happily.

老大是个懒家伙。他想了想，觉得盖间茅草屋最省事。 于是，他跑去找卖稻草的货郎，乞求道：“我是一只无家可归的小猪，给我一些稻草，让我搭个房子住吧。“ 货郎给了他几大捆稻草。老大花了一天时间，搭起了一间小茅草屋，然后满意地住了进去。

The second little pig was more hard-working than the first one. He decided to build a house with wood. So he went to an axe seller and begged, " I'm a homeless little pig. Give me an axe so that I can chop some wood and build a house with it. " The axe seller gave him an axe. The second little pig cut down some trees and built a house with wood in a week, and then he moved into the wooden house happily.

老二比老大勤快。他想了想, 决定盖一座小木屋。 于是，他跑去找卖斧子的货郎，对货郎说：“我是一只无家可归的小猪，给我一把斧子，让我砍些木头盖个房子吧！” 货郎给了他一把斧子。老二带着斧子砍了许多木头，不到一周的时间，盖起了一座小木屋，然后满意地住了进去。

The third little pig was the most hard-working of the three brothers. He decided to build a house with bricks. Although it was hard to build, it was very solid and firm. So he went to a brick seller and asked politely, " I'm a homeless little pig. I want to build a firm house with bricks. Would you please teach me how to make bricks?" The brick seller liked this polite little pig. He taught the third little pig how to make bricks, and gave him many suggestions on building.

老三是三兄弟中最勤奋的一个。他想来想去，最后决定用砖来建房子。 这样的房子虽然盖起来很费劲，但是非常坚固。 于是，他找到卖砖的货郎，很有礼貌地请求道：“我是一只无家可归的小猪，我想建造一座坚固的砖房，您能教我怎么做砖块吗？ ” 货郎非常喜欢这只有礼貌的小猪。他教给老三烧制砖块的方法，还给他提了很多盖房子的建议。

Having learnt from the brick seller, the third little pig started to make, carry and lay the bricks. Seeing this, his brothers laughed at him. " You're such a fool! ” they said. But the third little pig kept on working. After three months' hard work, his firm brick house was built at last and he moved into it happily.

老三认真地向货郎学习之后，每天起早贪黑，将砖块烧制好之后，一趟一趟地把砖搬到空地上，再一块一块地砌墙。 两个哥哥看到了，取笑他说：“只有傻瓜才这么做呢！” 但老三仍旧夜以继日地干活。 足足干了三个月，才把一座漂亮的、结实的小房子盖好，然后他满意地住了进去。

Now the three pigs were living in their own houses. A big bad wolf came for the three little pigs. The wolf came to the first little pig's straw house and said, " Little pig, let me in. " " No. . . No. . . " The first little pig was scared.

三只小猪都在自己的房子里愉快地生活。一只大灰狼悄悄地来到了小山村，要抓三只小猪。 大灰狼来到老大的茅草屋前，推了推门，说：“小猪, 小猪，打开门让我进去！” “不，不，”老大吓得浑身哆嗦。
