Chapter 1 Dance Class Katie loved to dance. She and JoJo were in a class together. Katie bragged, "I'm a fabulous dancer!"

第一章 舞蹈课 凯蒂可喜欢跳舞啦。 她和乔乔一起上舞蹈课。 凯蒂夸口说：“我可是超厉害的舞者！”

"I'm not a great dancer," said JoJo. "But that's okay. I love to dance. It makes me happy." One day, Miss Kelly said, "Class, I have some good news. In a few weeks, we are having a show." "Yay!" shouted Katie. "It's fun dancing on the stage!"

“我跳舞跳得不算好，”乔乔说。 “不过没关系呀。 我就是喜欢跳舞。 跳舞的时候我特别开心。” 有一天，凯莉老师说：“同学们，我有好消息要告诉大家。 再过几周，我们要办一场演出哦。” “哇！”凯蒂大叫起来。 “在舞台上跳舞可好玩啦！”

JoJo asked, "What music will we use?" "'You Are My Sunshine,'" said Miss Kelly. "I love that song," said Katie. She leaped high. She spun fast. Nobody could dance like Katie. Then a new girl joined the class. Her name was Mattie. At first, Katie liked her, but not for long.

乔乔问：“我们要用什么音乐呀？” “就用《你是我的阳光》，”凯莉老师说。 “我超喜欢这首歌！”凯蒂说。 她高高地跳起来。 她飞快地转圈圈。 没人能跳得像凯蒂这么好。 后来有个新来的女孩加入了班级。 她的名字叫玛蒂。 一开始凯蒂还挺喜欢她的，可没多久就不喜欢了。

Mattie jumped higher than Katie. She could spin faster, too. It made Katie sad. She told JoJo, "I'm not the best anymore." "Don't be sad," said JoJo. "You are still terrific!" Chapter 2 Ready for the Show Miss Kelly played, "You are my sunshine, my only sunshine." It was such a happy song. Mattie smiled as she danced. Katie did not.

玛蒂跳得比凯蒂更高。 她转圈圈也转得更快。 这让凯蒂很难过。 她跟乔乔说：“我再也不是跳得最好的那个了。” “别难过呀，”乔乔说， “你还是特别棒的！” 第二章 准备演出 凯莉老师播放音乐：“你是我的阳光，我唯一的阳光。” 这是一首特别欢快的歌。 玛蒂跳舞的时候脸上笑嘻嘻的。 凯蒂却一点都笑不出来。

"Oops!" said JoJo. "I keep falling down." "That's okay," said Miss Kelly. "The important thing is to keep dancing. Just do the best you can." Mattie showed JoJo how to dance without falling. JoJo was getting better. She had a great time. Katie did not.

“哎呀！”乔乔说。 “我老是摔倒。” “没关系的，”凯莉老师说。 “最重要的是要坚持跳下去。 尽自己最大的努力就好啦。” 玛蒂教乔乔怎么跳舞才不会摔倒。 乔乔跳得越来越好了。 她跳得特别开心。 凯蒂却一点都不开心。
