What's the Difference?

What's the Difference? Jerry was different from the other kids. He was ten years old, but less than one metre tall. The boys would not play with him. The girls made fun of him. Every day, he cried before going to school. He did not want to face another day at school. “ It's just the way you are, ” his mom said. “ You were born this way. Someday, you might grow big and tall. But for now, you are short. ” One day before school, while Jerry was crying, he saw a really tall man. He was at least 2. 25 metres tall. The tall man asked, " What is the problem?" The boy explained what was wrong.

有什么区别呢? 杰里和其他孩子不一样。他十岁大了，但还不到一米高。 孩子们不愿意和他玩。女孩们取笑他。每天上学前，他都会哭。他不想在学校里再多待一天。 “你就是这样，”他妈妈说。“你生来如此。有一天，你可能会长得又高又大。但现在，你很矮。 一天上学前，杰里正在哭，他看到一个很高的男人。他至少有2.25米高。 高个子男人问:“怎么了?”男孩解释出了什么问题。

The tall man smiled. " When I was a boy, they teased me too. I was too tall. But you know what?Today, I am a pro basketball star. Now everyone wants to be my friend. ” Jerry learned something new that day. It's no fun being different. But you never know how things will turn out.

高个子男人笑了。“当我还是个孩子的时候，他们总是取笑我. 和你一样。我太高了。但是你知道吗?今天，我是一名职业篮球明星。现在每个人都想和我做朋友。” 杰里那天学到了新东西。与众不同没什么好笑的。你永远不知道事情会如何发展。
