The Princess and the Dragon by Audrey Wood When you hear this sound, it's time for you to turn the page.

《公主与龙》，作者：奥黛丽·伍德 当你听到这个声音的时候， 就该翻页啦。

Once there was a princess who didn't behave like a princess. The king and queen were shocked by her frightful manners. Don't touch me! I'm perfect! Her tangled hair and ragged clothes made her nanny cry.

从前有个公主，一举一动一点都不像个公主。 她糟糕的礼仪把国王和王后都吓坏了。 别碰我！我完美得很！ 她乱糟糟的头发、破破烂烂的衣服，把保姆都气哭了。

Spaghetti a la meatballs and chocolate peanut butter cake. The cook, try as he might, could never serve a meal the princess liked. Throw it to the swine! No one ever saw her smile, except when she played a mean trick on the old knight. Eat up your nice worm!

意式肉丸面，还有巧克力花生酱蛋糕。 厨师想尽了办法，也做不出公主爱吃的饭菜。 把这拿去喂猪！ 没人见过她笑，除非是她捉弄老骑士的时候。 把你的美味小虫子吃干净呀！

Don't act like her. She's a disgrace. Never, never. All the mothers and fathers in the kingdom warned their children not to be like her. No, no, no! Isn't she terrible?

别学她的样子。 她真是个耻辱。 万万不可以。 王国里所有的爸爸妈妈都告诫自己的孩子，不许学她。 不可以，不可以，不可以！ 她是不是太糟糕啦？

It's green! It's big! It's hungry! Help! One day, a dragon was seen moving into a cave in the mountain. The mothers and fathers were frightened and ran to the king and queen for help. The king and queen were worried too. They knew that dragons liked to kidnap princesses. It's come for our little dear. Oh, me! But most upset of all was the old knight, as it was his job to protect the royal child. Oh, my!

它是绿色的！个头超大！它饿坏了！救命啊！ 有一天，有人看到一条龙住进了山里的洞穴。 爸爸妈妈们都吓坏了，赶紧去找国王王后求助。 国王和王后也很担心。 他们知道龙最喜欢绑架公主了。 它是来抢我们的小宝贝的。 哎呀我的天呀！ 不过最发愁的是老骑士，因为保护王室孩子是他的职责呀。 哦，我的天呀！

This news gave the princess a mean idea. Wouldn't it be jolly to watch the old knight fight a dragon? She would let the monster capture her! Ha ha! That night, while everyone was asleep, the princess tiptoed out and made her way up to the terrible creature's cave.

这个消息让公主想到了一个坏点子。 看老骑士跟龙打架，那不是超有意思吗？ 她要让那个怪物把自己抓走！ 哈哈！ 当天晚上，等大家都睡着了，公主踮着脚溜了出去 一路走到了那个可怕怪物的洞穴里。
