The Little Red Teapot

The Little Red Teapot Last winter, I had a bad cold. I could hardly breathe through my nose. In the morning, my mother brought me a little red teapot. “ Tea? I don’t like tea! ” I said. “ I know, ” Mom said. “ But tea is one of the best things you can drink. It’s very healthy. This is a special tea for when you are sick. ” There was no way out. I brought the cup to my lips and took a small sip. The tea was strong and bitter. I knew my mom was trying to help me. So I took another sip. Within a few hours, I could breathe through my nose again!

一把红色的小茶壶 去年冬天，我得了一次感冒。我很难通过我的鼻子呼吸。早上，妈妈给了我一把红色的小茶壶。 “茶？我可不爱喝茶.”我看着茶壶说道。 “我知道。”妈妈解释说。“但是茶是目前你可以喝的最适合你的饮品，它非常的健康。这是一种在你生病的时候喝的特殊的茶。” 没有法子了。我把茶杯拿到唇边小口小口地啜饮着。茶水又浓又苦。 我知道妈妈是在帮助我。所以我慢慢地喝着。过了几个小时，我的鼻子竟然呼吸顺畅了。

Was it the tea? I don’t know. But I do know that the next time I’m sick, I’ll be looking for that little red teapot again!

是茶的作用吗？我也不知道。但是我知道下一回我要是再生病，我还是会去找那把红色的小茶壶。
