Rat Talks to Toad

水鼠与蟾蜍的交谈

Rat made some lunch for Toad. “ Soup will help Toad feel better, ” he thought. Finally Toad came in the room. He looked like a real gentleman.

水鼠为蟾蜍做了午餐。“汤会让蟾蜍感觉好点，”他想。 蟾蜍终于进来了。他看起来像个真正的绅士。

Rat watched Toad sip his soup. “ Now, Toady, ” Rat said, “ I don’t want to hurt you. You’ve suffered a lot. ”

水鼠看着蟾蜍啜着汤。 “好了，小蟾蜍，”水鼠说，“我不想伤害你。你受了很多苦。”

“ Oh yes, ” said Toad, nodding. “ I have. ” “ But, ” said Rat, “ you are a big fool! ” Toad dropped his spoon. He was shocked.

“哦，是的，”蟾蜍点点头说。“确实。“可是，”水鼠说，“你是个大傻瓜!” 蟾蜍掉了勺子。他惊呆了。

“ You were thrown in jail, ” said Rat “ Yes, but—” said Toad. (I escaped! ) “ You were put in chains, ” said Rat. “ Yes, but—” said Toad. (Not for long! )

“你被关进监狱了，”水鼠说。“是的，但是——”蟾蜍说。(我逃了!) “你被锁起来了。”水鼠说。“是的，但是——”蟾蜍说。(没多久!)

“ You were chased, ” said Rat. “ Yes, but—” said Toad. (I got away! ) “ You were thrown in the water, ” said Rat. “ Yes, but—” said Toad. (I stole a horse! )

“你被追赶了。”水鼠说。“是的，但是——”蟾蜍说。(我逃走了!) “你被扔进水里了。”水鼠说。“是的，但是——”蟾蜍说。(我偷了一匹马!)
