One sunny morning, in a house on a hill, When the sky was quite blue, the air warm and still, A young girl called Ava very happily sat With Squishy McFluff, her invisible cat. They were planning a wonderful day full of laughter,

一个晴朗的早晨， 山上的一栋小屋里， 天空湛蓝湛蓝的， 空气暖融融的，静悄悄的， 有个叫艾娃的小女孩 正开开心心地坐着 和软乎乎·麦克福乐一起， 那是她的隐形小猫。 他俩正计划着 超棒的一天 要充满欢声笑语，

Playing tricks in the morning, climbing trees after. Then launching a rocket! And building a den! Then football! And hopscotch! And paddling! And THEN...

早上玩恶作剧， 之后去爬树。 接着发射火箭！ 再搭个秘密小窝！ 然后踢足球！ 玩跳房子！ 去踩水玩！ 然后嘛……

But Mum had ideas that would ruin their fun. 'Chop chop!' she yelled, 'There are things to be done! 'We've shopping to do, we need food for the week.' 'Mum, that'll take AGES!' Ava's outlook was bleak.

可是妈妈的主意要毁了他们的乐趣。 “快点快点！” 她喊道， “还有事要做呢！ “我们得去买东西， 要采购下周的食物。” “妈妈，那要花好久好久的！” 艾娃的心一下子凉了半截。
