One story小学 · Book 9 for September
Stand Up Straight and Tall We do not usually think about our feet. They are just there under our legs. Most days, we put socks and shoes on our feet. Some days, we even go barefoot. But our feet are very important. Why?Think about it. What do you walk on?You walk on your feet, of course. They carry all your weight. If you did not have feet, you would not be able to walk. What about your toes?Well, they are the most important part of your feet. Your big toes carry nearly half of your total weight. The other eight toes carry about one quarter of your weight. Your two heels carry the rest. One more thing: if you did not have toes, you would fall over when you tried to stand. Toes give you balance.
站直站高 我们通常不会想到我们的脚。他们只是在我们的腿下面。大多数时候,我们把袜子和鞋子穿在脚上。有些日子,我们甚至光着脚。 但是我们的脚非常重要。为什么?想想。你走在什么上面?你当然是用脚走路的。 它们承载着你所有的重量。如果你没有脚,你就不能走路。 你的脚趾呢?它们是你脚上最重要的部分。你的大脚趾几乎承担了你总重量的一半。其他8个脚趾承担大约四分之一的体重。你的两只高跟鞋承担了剩下的。 还有一件事:如果你没有脚趾,当你试图站立时,你会摔倒。脚趾让你保持平衡。
So, take care of your feet. Treat them well. You only get two to last a whole lifetime. And you will walk many thousands of kilometres on them.
所以,照顾好你的脚。对待他们。一辈子只有两个。你可以骑着它们走几千公里。
