4 In The Country

CLAUDE in the Country

克劳德在乡下

Have you met Claude? Here he is now. Hello, Claude! Claude is a dog. Claude is a small dog. Claude is a small, plump dog who wears a beret and a very dashing jumper.

你见过克劳德吗？他来了。 你好,克劳德!克劳德是一只狗。 克劳德是一只小狗。克劳德是一只小而丰满的狗，戴着贝雷帽和一件非常时髦的套头衫。

He lives in a house with his owners, Mr and Mrs Shinyshoes... ...and his best friend, Sir Bobblysock. Sir Bobblysock is both a sock and quite bobbly.

他和他的主人Shinyshoes先生和夫人住在一所房子里。 ．..还有他最好的朋友，波布里索克爵士。 波布里索克爵士既是一只袜子，又是相当的波比。

When Mr and Mrs Shinyshoes dash out the door to work each morning, Claude whips out his beret from under his pillow, and decides what adventure to go on. Where will Claude and Sir Bobblysock go today?

每天早上，当皮鞋先生和皮鞋太太冲出家门去上班的时候，克劳德从枕头底下抽出他的贝雷帽，决定接下来的冒险。 克劳德和波布里索克爵士今天要去哪里？

It was Thursday morning and the day betore had been: Wednesday. A wet Wednesday. Because their raincoats were still at the dry cleaners, Claude and Sir Bobblysock hadn't been able to go on an adventure. They had had to stay indoors. Sir Bobblysock had busied himself writing his life story and Claude had busied himself being bored.

这是星期四的早晨，而前一天是星期三。 一个潮湿的星期三。因为他们的雨衣还在干洗店，克劳德和鲍布里索克爵士没能去冒险。 他们不得不呆在室内。 鲍布利索克爵士忙于写他的人生故事，克劳德忙于感到无聊。

First, he had thrown himself down on the carpet and pretended to be poorly until Sir Bobblysock looked at him and gave him some attention. When this didn't work, Claude did some running around in circles, watched a very interesting film about cowboys, and then he gave a concert for all his other friends. It had been a rip-roaring success.

首先，他扑倒在地毯上，假装生病，直到鲍布里索克爵士看着他，注意了他一下。 这招不管用，克劳德就绕着圈子跑了几圈，看了一部关于牛仔的非常有趣的电影，然后为他所有的朋友开了一场音乐会。 它取得了巨大的成功。
