胖熊和瘦兔 · 4 A Rabbit and Bear-a bite in the Night
"Progress is making things... Newer!" CRUNCH! "Bigger!" CRUNCH! "Better!" CRUNCH!
“进步使事情…… 更新的!”危机!“大!”危机!“好!”危机!
And the creature chewed through a small tree like it was a carrot. Rabbit jumped out of the way as it fell. "You think this is making things Better?" said Rabbit. "You Monster!"
它把一棵小树当胡萝卜啃了。 兔子在它倒下时跳开了。 “你认为这会让事情变得更好吗?”兔子说。 “你的怪物!”
"I'm not a Monster," said the creature. "Monsters don't exist. Only very silly animals believe in Monsters." "OK, OK, OK, if you're not a Monster," said Woodpecker, "then WHAT WHAT WHAT are you?"
“我不是怪物,”怪物说。 “怪物不存在。只有非常愚蠢的动物才相信有怪物。” “好吧,好吧,好吧,如果你不是怪物,”啄木鸟说,“那么你是什么,什么,什么?”
"You can call me... Castor Canadensis," said the creature. "Eh?" said Rabbit. "It is the scientific name for the North American Beaver," said Castor Canadensis.
“你可以打电话给我……加拿大蓖麻,”那家伙说。 “嗯?”兔子说。“这是北美海狸的学名,”Castor Canadensis说。
"Why did you move our stream, Castor?" said Woodpecker. "I didn't move it," said Castor. "I'm just making it Bigger. And therefore Better. Progress!" "But..." said Bear, "how do you make a stream bigger?" "Engineering!" said Castor.
“你为什么移动我们的小溪,卡斯特?”啄木鸟说。 “我没动它,”卡斯特说。 “我只是想让它变大。 因此更好。进步!”“但是……” 熊说,“你怎么让小溪变大?”“工程学!”卡斯特说。
"You put an Engine in our stream?!" said Rabbit. "No, silly rabbit!" said Castor. "Engineering is the Science of Building Newer, Bigger, Better things." He waved at the deeper, wider stream. "Progress!" "What has that got to do with our missing trees?" said Bear. "Everything! Follow me, silly animals, and I'll show you."
“你把火车头放在我们的小溪里?!”兔子说。 “不,傻兔子!”卡斯特说。 “工程学是建造更新、更大、更好的东西的科学。” 他向更深更宽的小溪挥了挥手。 “进步!”“这和我们丢失的树有什么关系?”熊说。 “一切!跟我来,愚蠢的动物们,我带你们去看。”
