《安静的鹌鹑》作者:希瑟·费尔德曼，插图:罗斯蒂·弗莱彻

Quincy is a quiet quail. He likes to do quiet things. Quincy likes to snuggle with his favorite quilt and listen to the quiet pitter-pat of the rain.

昆西是一只安静的鹌鹑。他喜欢做安静的事情。 昆西喜欢依偎在他最喜欢的被子上，听着安静的雨声。

Quincy likes to sit quietly and read. Quincy likes to take quiet walks.

昆西喜欢安静地坐着看书。 昆西喜欢安静地散步。

Sometimes on his quiet walks, Quincy meets his friend Dottie Duck. Dottie is not very quiet. In fact, Dottie is quite loud. "QUACK! QUACK! QUACK! HI, QUINCY! QUACK, QUACK!" shouts Dottie. "Hello, Dottie," whispers the quiet quail.

有时在安静的散步中，昆西会遇到他的朋友多蒂·达克。 多蒂不太安静。事实上，多蒂声音很大。 “庸医!庸医!庸医!嗨,昆西!嘎嘎，嘎嘎!”多蒂喊道。 “你好，多蒂，”安静的鹌鹑低声说。

Quincy and Dottie sit in the park. "QUACK! QUACK! QUACK! QUACK! QUACK!" shouts Dottie. "WHAT A BEAUTIFUL DAY! QUACK! QUACK!" Dottie quacks and quacks till Quincy's head hurts. "Dottie, please quit quacking," says Quincy. But Dottie is quacking so loudly, she does not hear the quiet quail.

昆西和多蒂坐在公园里。 “庸医!庸医!庸医!庸医!嘎嘎!”多蒂喊道。 “多么美好的一天!”庸医!庸医!”多蒂嘎嘎叫个不停，一直叫到昆西头疼。 “多蒂，请别嘎嘎叫了，”昆西说。 但是多蒂嘎嘎叫得太大声了，她没有听到安静的鹌鹑。

Quincy decides to go for a swim to drown out Dottie's quacking. He spreads his quilt on the grass and jumps in the pond. Suddenly, Queenie the dog trots by. She grabs Quincy's quilt and runs away. "My quilt!" cries Quincy. "Someone stop Queenie!" But Quincy's voice is too quiet. No one hears him.

昆西决定去游泳以盖过多蒂的嘎嘎声。 他把被子铺在草地上，在池塘里跳。 突然，狗狗奎妮小跑了过来。 她抓起昆西的被子跑开了。 “我的被子!”昆西喊道。“谁来阻止奎妮!”但是昆西的声音太安静了。 没有人听见他的话。
