Chasing Toad

追逐蟾蜍

Toad leaned out of the train. He looked down the tracks. A train was speeding after them. “ Stop! Stop! ” yelled the riders on the train.

蟾蜍探出身子。他顺着铁轨往下看。 一列火车在他们后面疾驰。“停!停!“火车上的乘客喊道。

“ They look like policemen! ” said the engineer. The police waved their clubs angrily. Toad fell on his knees. “ Save me! ” he cried. “ Save me! ”

“他们看起来像警察!”司机说。警察愤怒地挥舞着警棍。 蟾蜍跪了下来。“救我!”他叫道。“救我!”

“ What?” asked the engineer. “ I am not a washwoman! ” cried Toad. “ I do not have children! I am Mr. Toad! ”

“什么?“司机问。 “我不是洗衣妇!”蟾蜍叫道。“我没有孩子!”我是蟾蜍先生!”

The engineer was angry. “ Why are they chasing you?” he asked. Embarrassed, Toad looked at him. ” I escaped from jail, ” said Toad.

司机很生气。“他们为什么追你?”他问道。 蟾蜍尴尬地看着他：“我从监狱里逃出来了。”蟾蜍说。

“ Why were you in prison?” said the engineer. “ It wasn’t serious, ” said Toad. “ I just borrowed a car. But everyone got so upset about it. ”

“你为什么进监狱?”司机问。 “不严重，”蟾蜍说。“我只是借了一辆车。但每个人对此都很生气。”
