A Special Treat

A Special Treat Everyone has a favourite treat. You may have one or many. Do you know what my special treat is?It's the Beaver Tail. A beaver tail?You may be shocked. But don't get me wrong. My Beaver Tail is not actually a beaver's tail. It's a yummy sweet food made of flour. A Beaver Tail is a piece of dough, shaped like a beaver's tail. It is quickly fried and then sprinkled with some brown sugar on top. Mmmm! My special treat is really SPECIAL. It's not always available. It's sold on the canal only during the winter, when the water freezes, and people come to skate.

一个特殊的甜点 每个人都有最爱吃的东西。你可以有一个或很多。你知道我的特别甜点是什么吗?是河狸尾巴。 河狸尾巴?你可能会感到震惊。但是不要误解我。我的河狸尾巴实际上不是河狸的尾巴。这是一种由面粉制成的美味的甜食。 河狸尾巴是一块面团，形状像河狸的尾巴。它是快速油炸，然后撒上一些红糖。嗯! 我的特别甜食真的很特别。 不是所有时候都能买到，只有在冬天水结冰，人们来滑冰的时候才会在运河上卖。

It's sweet. It's hot and soft. It always goes with my favourite winter activity—skating on the canal. l love Beaver Tails. Best of all, I love the atmosphere of a cold winter day with so many people eating Beaver Tails and drinking hot chocolate after skating for hours. Put it all together, and you have a VERY special treat!

它是甜的。它又热又软。它总是和我最喜欢的冬季活动——在运河上滑冰——相配。 我喜欢河狸尾巴。最重要的是，我喜欢寒冷冬天的气氛，很多人在滑冰几个小时后吃着河狸尾巴，喝着热巧克力。 把它们放在一起，你就有了一个非常特别的美餐。
