Korka, the mighty elf.
科尔卡,强大的小精灵。
Korka was a very small elf. He was smaller than all the other elves on Elf Hill. Korka always wanted to help the big elves. You are too small to help us! Said one of the big elves. Just go home!
科尔卡是个非常小的小精灵。 他比精灵山上所有其他小精灵都要小。 科尔卡一直想帮大个子精灵们的忙。 你太小了,帮不了我们! 一个大个子精灵说道。 赶紧回家去吧!
That night a big bad troll came to Elf Hill. The troll jumped on the elf houses and squashed them. The elves ran away into the wood. Korka was in bed asleep. He was dreaming. In his dream he was Korka the mighty knight saving his people from fright.
那天晚上,一只又大又坏的巨怪来到了精灵山。 巨怪跳到精灵们的房子上,把房子都踩扁了。 精灵们都逃到了树林里。 科尔卡正在床上睡觉。 他正做着梦呢。 梦里他是强大的骑士科尔卡,正把族人们从恐惧中救出来。
Suddenly, Korka heard a loud crash! He opened his eyes and saw a big troll foot. Korka's bed was stuck on the troll's foot. Then the troll ran back to his cave. Korka jumped off the troll's foot. I'm glad the troll did not see me! said Korka.
突然,科尔卡听见一声巨响! 他睁开眼睛,看见了巨怪的一只大脚。 科尔卡的床刚好卡在巨怪的脚上。 紧接着巨怪就跑回了自己的洞穴。 科尔卡从巨怪的脚上跳了下来。 幸好巨怪没看见我!科尔卡说。
When the troll got back to the troll cave, he boasted to other trolls. I jumped on the elves houses and I squashed them. He laughed. We want to do it too, said all the trolls. Korka was hiding in the cave. He heard what the trolls said. Oh no! said Korka. I must stop the trolls.
巨怪回到洞穴之后,对着其他巨怪吹起牛来。 我跳到精灵们的房子上,把它们全踩扁啦。 他哈哈大笑。 我们也想去这么做!所有巨怪都说道。 科尔卡正躲在洞穴里。 他听见了巨怪们说的话。 哦不!科尔卡说。 我必须阻止这些巨怪。
Corka didn't know what to do. Then he had an idea. When the trolls were not looking, he took some soap and a long pipe. Corka put the soap into the trolls stew. It made lots of bubbles.
科尔卡不知道该怎么办。这时他想到了一个主意。趁巨怪们没注意的时候, 他拿了一些肥皂和一根长管子。科尔卡把肥皂放进了巨怪们的炖菜里。 炖菜冒出了好多好多泡泡。
