6 The dog and the bone

Chapter 6 The dog and the bone One day, a naughty dog stole a big, juicy bone from the butcher.

第6章狗和骨头一天，一只顽皮的狗从屠夫那里偷了一根又大又多汁的骨头。

The dog scampered away across the fields... He can't catch me! ...and onto a bridge that crossed a stream. I think I'm safe now.

那条狗窜过田野跑开了。 他抓不到我！…走到一座横跨小溪的桥上。 我想我现在安全了。

He looked down at the water and jumped in surprise. There was another dog staring up at him and he had a big, juicy bone in his mouth too. His bone's bigger than mine...

他低头看了看水，惊讶地跳了起来。 还有另一只狗抬头盯着他，嘴里也叼着一根又大又多汁的骨头。 他的骨头比我的大…

He growled at the dog and the dog growled back. "I want your bone," barked the dog on the bridge. Give it to me! But, as he opened his mouth, his bone slipped out.

他对狗咆哮，狗也对他咆哮。 “我要你的骨头，”桥上的狗叫道。 把它给我！但是，当他张开嘴时，他的骨头滑了出来。

It fell into the water with a big splash. When the ripples cleared, all the dog could see was himself. There had never been another dog, and now there was no bone either.

它扑通一声落入水中。 当涟漪消失时，狗只看到了自己。 从来没有别的狗，现在也没有骨头了。

I wish I hadn't been so greedy. And the moral is... Be happy with what you have.

我希望我没有那么贪婪。 寓意是……对你所拥有的感到快乐。
