英语故事:Jack and the Beanstalk 杰克和豆茎
Without stopping to think, he climbed out of his window and started climbing up towards the clouds.In no time at all he was at the very top of the giant bean stalk and jumped off into what seemed to be a cloud !He could see an enormous house in the distance and wanted to know who lived there.He went up to the front door and knocked.
一边想,他一边爬出窗户,爬上树,向树稍的云端爬去。不久他就到了巨型豆茎的顶上,然后他跳进一朵云里。 他看到远处有一座巨大的房子,他想知道谁住在那里。 他来到门前敲响了门。
Suddenly the ground started to shake and a terrible pounding sound of footsteps hurt his ears. The door was opened by the biggest man he had ever seen. It was a GIANT !Jack ran away round to the back of the house to hide. Luckily, the giant was so big and Jack was so tiny, he didn't see Jack. BUT- he could smell him!The giant roared in a voice as loud as thunder...
突然,地开始震动,巨大的脚步声刺疼了他的耳朵,门被一个很大的人打开了,大到他从未见过。这是一个巨人! 杰克跑到房后躲起来。很幸运,巨人太大,杰克太小,巨人没有看到杰克。但是,巨人闻得到他!巨人用打雷一样的声音咆哮起来……
"Fee Fi Fo Fum, I smell the blood of an English man !"
"Be he alive or be he dead, I'll grind his bones to make my bread !"
At that point Jack was terrified!He rushed round the house and bumped into a very large lady. It was the giant's wife. She quickly told Jack to hide in the cupboard and before he could argue, she pushed him into the cupboard and shut the door!
“Fee Fi Fo Fum,我闻到了一个英国男人的血的味道!”
“不管活的还是死的,我要磨碎他的骨头做面包!”
这把杰克吓坏了!他跑离房子,却冲到一个巨大的女人怀里,她是巨人的妻子。她快速地告诉杰克躲进碗厨里,杰克还来不及争辩,她就把杰克塞进碗厨,关上了门!
Inside the cupboard Jack found lots of gold coins. He popped one into his pocket, thinking it would please his mum.When the noise died down, the giant's wife opened the cupboard and gave Jack some breakfast. She told him however, that if he wasn't careful the giant would eat JACK for HIS breakfast!Jack thanked the giant's wife politely for breakfast and ran away down the beanstalk as fast as he could.
杰克在碗厨里发现了许多金币,他拿了一枚放进口袋,他想这可能会让他妈妈开心一点。当外面安静下来以后,巨人的妻子打开碗厨门,并给了杰克一些早餐。她告诉杰克,如果不小心一点的话巨人会把他当早餐吃掉的。 杰克礼貌地感谢了巨人的妻子给自己早餐。然后飞快逃下了豆茎。
Jack's mother was so excited when she saw the gold coin she kissed Jack and told him how clever and brave he was. However, when she heard about the giant she made Jack promise never to go there again.He promised, but somehow as the days passed, he kept thinking about his adventure. He really hadenjoyed all the danger and he kept thinking about all the giant's gold."We could be rich!" he thought.
杰克的妈妈看到金币高兴极了,她亲了杰克,还夸杰克既聪明又勇敢。可是当她听说巨人的事以后,她要杰克保证再也不要到那里去。杰克答应了,但是一天天过去,他忍不住想起那次冒险。他真地很享受冒险,还一直想到巨人的那些黄金。他想:“那样我们会很富有。”
So, one day, when his mum wasn't looking, he sneaked out of the house and climbed the beanstalk again!When he got to the enormous house, the kitchen door was open so he went to hide in the cupboard again. But, oh dear ! the giant could always smell little boys and suddenly Jack heard the roar....
、所以有一天,他趁妈妈没看见,溜出房子,又爬上了豆茎!当他来到巨型房子时,他看到厨房门开着,他就又躲过进了碗厨。但是,天哪!巨人总能闻到小男孩的味道。杰克听到了一声咆哮……
