19. The New Baby
Mr. and Mrs. John had a six-year-old boy named tom. Now Mrs. John was expecting another child.
Tom had seen babies in other people's houses and had not liked them very much, so he was not delighted about the news that there was soon going to be one in his house, too.
One evening Mr. and Mrs. John were making plans for the baby's arriva arrival. "This house won't be big enough for us all when the baby comes."
Tom came into the room just then and said, "What are you talking about?" "We were saying that we'll have to move to another house now, because the new baby's coming." his mother answered.
"It's no use." said Tom hopelessly, "He'll follow us there."
新宝宝
约翰夫妇有一个六岁的儿子，名叫汤姆。现在约翰太太正怀着第二胎。
汤姆在别人家看见过小宝宝，他不太喜欢他们，所以他对自己家里也将有一个小宝宝的消息感到不悦。
一天，约翰夫妇正在为这个婴儿的降临做安排。约翰先生说：“有了小宝宝，我们的房子就太小了，不够住了。”
汤姆恰好在这个时候走进来，他问：“你们在说什么？”他的母亲回答说：“我们在说我们得搬家了，因为小宝宝就要来了。
“那有什么用？”汤姆绝望地说，“他会跟我们到那儿去的。”
