The Ugly Duckling
丑小鸭
Once upon a time, Mother Duck had some ducklings. The ducklings grew and grew, but one duckling grew too big.
很久很久以前,鸭妈妈有了几只鸭宝宝。 小鸭子们长啊长,可有一只小鸭长得太大了。
Mother Duck said, Go away, you are too big and too ugly, you do not belong here. Poor ugly duckling, he was so sad. He went to see Hen.
鸭妈妈说:“走开,你又大又丑,不属于这里。” 可怜的丑小鸭难过极了,他去找母鸡。
Hen said, Go away, you are too big and too ugly, you do not belong here. Poor ugly duckling, he was so, so sad. He went to see Cat.
母鸡说:“走开,你又大又丑,不属于这里。” 可怜的丑小鸭好难过好难过,他去找小猫。
Cat said, Go away, you are too big and too ugly, you do not belong here. Poor ugly duckling, he was so very sad, he did not belong anywhere.
小猫说:“走开,你又大又丑,不属于这里。” 可怜的丑小鸭特别难过,他哪儿都不属于。
But then Ugly Duckling saw Swan. He said, I do not belong anywhere. I am too big and too ugly. Swan said, you are not too big. You are not ugly.
就在这时,丑小鸭看到了天鹅。他说:“我哪儿都不属于,我长得太大, 又太丑了。 天鹅说:“你不大呀,也一点都不丑。”
