3 The Painting

The Painting "What a perfect afternoon for painting," said Bird, setting up the easels and brushes in her garden.

“真是一个完美的绘画下午，”伯德说着，在她的花园里架起了画架和画笔。

"I've only ever painted once," said Bear. "And that was my front door. So I don't think I'll be any good." "It doesn't matter, Bear. Anyone can paint," said Bird. "Hey, let's paint that tree."

“我只画过一次，”熊说。 “那是我的前门。 所以我觉得我做不好。” “没关系，熊。任何人都会画画，”小鸟说。 “嘿，我们给那棵树涂漆吧。”

Bird knew all about being a painter. She shared some advice like: "Close one eye" and "Stand back from your painting, scratch your chin and say 'Hmm'"

伯德知道如何成为一名画家。 她分享了一些建议，比如：“闭上一只眼睛”和“从你的绘画中退后，挠挠下巴，说‘嗯’”。

"How's it going, Bird?" asked Bear. "Really great. I love painting. Painting is so much fun. How about you?" asked Bird. "OK," said Bear. "Can I see?" asked Bird. "Yes, but it's not finished yet," said Bear. Bird had a peek.

“怎么样，小鸟？”熊问。 “真的好了。我喜欢画画。 画画很有趣。你呢？”鸟问。 “好吧，”熊说。“我能看吗？”鸟问。 “是的，但它还没有完成，”熊说。 小鸟偷看了一眼。

It was unbelievable. It was beautiful. It was even better than the real-life tree. "What do you think?" asked Bear. Bird looked at Bear's painting and then looked at her own. She shrugged. "It's a fine start- for a beginner," said Bird. Bird sat down and tried to make hers look better. Frantically. She was really concentrating now. But it just kept getting worse and worse.

真是难以置信。它是美丽的。 它甚至比现实中的树还好。 “你觉得怎么样？”熊问。 小鸟看了看熊的画，又看了看自己的。 她耸耸肩。“对于初学者来说，这是一个很好的开始，”伯德说。 伯德坐下来，试着把她的衣服打扮得好看些。 疯狂。她现在真的很专心。 但情况越来越糟。
