A Grand Plan

一个宏伟的计划

That evening Jack told Mother about Milky White. “ This is terrible! ” Mother said. “ How will we make money?” She put her head on the table and sobbed.

那天晚上，杰克告诉了妈妈关于Milky White的事。 “这太可怕了!”妈妈说。 “我们怎么赚钱?” 她把头放在桌子上抽泣。

There was one thing Jack hated. That was watching Mother cry. " Please don't cry, Mother, " he said. " I have a plan. "

有一件事杰克讨厌。 那就是看母亲哭泣。 “请不要哭，妈妈，”他说。 “我有个计划。”

Mother lifted her head. “ We have a big problem, Jack, ” she said. “ It’s not time for one of your grand plans. ”

母亲抬起头。 “我们有一个大问题，杰克，”她说。 “现在不是你实施宏伟计划的时候。”

Jack smiled. " It's not a grand plan this time. It's a simple one. " " What is it?" Mother asked slowly.

杰克笑了。 “这次不是什么大计划。这很简单。” “这是什么?”妈妈慢慢地问。

“ I will look for a job, ” Jack said. “ Then I can earn money. ” “ A job?” Mother said. “ Where will you look for a job?”

“我要找份工作，”杰克说。 “这样我就可以挣钱了。” “工作?”妈妈说。 “你打算去哪里找工作?”
