Stupid Toad
愚蠢的蟾蜍
“ I escaped again! ” thought Toad. He walked through a field singing his song. “ Who escaped and feels so glad? Clever Toad! Clever Toad! ”
“我又逃脱了!”蟾蜍想。他唱着歌走过一片田野。 “谁逃脱了,还这么高兴?是聪明的蟾蜍!聪明的蟾蜍!”
“ Oh, what a wonderful song, ” said Toad. “ It’s the best song I ever wrote! ” He sang it again as loud as he could. Suddenly Toad stopped and listened.
“哦,多好听的歌啊,”蟾蜍说。“这是我写过的最好的歌!” 他尽可能大声地又唱了一遍。突然,蟾蜍停下来,听着。
He heard a noise behind him. He turned around to look. Two policemen were running his way. “ Oh no! ” said Toad. “ Poor me! ”
他听到身后有声音。然后转身去看。 两个警察正朝他跑过来。“哦,不!"蟾蜍说。“可怜的我!”
The raccoon ran with the policemen. “ There he is! ” the raccoon cried. “ We’ll get you! ” yelled the police. Suddenly afraid, Toad ran.
浣熊跟着警察跑。“他在那儿!”浣熊叫道。 “我们会抓到你的!”警察喊道。蟾蜍突然害怕起来,就跑开了。
“ I’m so stupid! ” cried Toad. “ I was singing too loudly. I was too pleased with myself! ” Toad looked back.
“我真笨!”蟾蜍叫道。“我唱得太大声了。我刚刚对自己太满意了!” 蟾蜍往回看。
