The Baby Elephant

小象

Hello! I am a baby elephant. When I was only three days old, I began to walk.

你好我是一头小象。当我只有三天大的时候，我就开始走路了。

I like to eat all kinds of plants. I like to eat fruit and bark too. But I do not eat meat. Let me show you how I eat. I use my long trunk to pick up food.

我喜欢吃各种各样的植物。我也喜欢吃水果和树皮。但我不吃肉。 让我告诉你我是怎么吃的。我用我的长鼻子来捡食物。

I use my trunk to breathe and smell too. I use my trunk to spray water on my body. I can take a bath using my trunk! Splash! I use my trunk to throw dust all over my body. Doesn’t it look fun?

我也用鼻子呼吸和闻气味。我用我的鼻子往身上喷水。 我可以用我的鼻子洗澡！泼洒！我用我的鼻子把灰尘撒在身上。看起来很有趣吗？

There is another kind of bath I like too. I like to take a mud bath. Rolling in the mud is fun! Whee!

我也喜欢另一种洗澡方式。我喜欢洗泥浴。在泥里打滚很有趣！呼！

Oh! It is so hot today. I can flap my large ears to cool off my body. Ahh! I also flap my ears to chase the flies away. Shoo!

哦！今天天气很热。我可以拍打我的大耳朵来冷却我的身体。啊！我也拍着耳朵把苍蝇赶走。嘘！
