Once there was a boy named Danny.
One day Danny’s mother had a birthday.
Danny said to himself, “What shall I give my mother for her birthday?”
曾经有个男孩,名叫丹尼。丹尼的妈妈要过生日了。
“我给妈妈送什么生日礼物好呢?”丹尼自言自语地说。
So Danny started out to see what he could find. He walkedalong, and he met a Hen.
“Good morning, Mrs. Hen!” said Danny.
“Can you give me something for my mother’s birthday?”
于是丹尼出门,看看能找到什么样的礼物。他走着走着,碰到了一只母鸡。
“早上好,母鸡夫人!”丹尼说。
“你能送我点儿什么,当作我妈妈的生日礼物吗?”
“Cluck, cluck,” said the Hen, “I give you a nice fresh egg for your mother’s birthday.”
“Thank you,” said Danny, “but she has an egg.”
“Let’s see what we can find then,” said the Hen.
“咯-咯,咯-咯,”母鸡应答说,“我可以送给你一枚新鲜的鸡蛋,作为送给你妈妈的生日礼物。”
“谢谢,”丹尼说,“可她已经有了鸡蛋。”
“让我们一起看看,能不能找到其他东西吧!”母鸡说。
So Danny and the Hen
skipped along until they met
于是丹尼和母鸡
沿着路边走边跳,他们又见到了
A Goose.
“Good morning, Mrs. Goose.” said Danny.
“Can you give me something for my mother’s birthday?”
一只鹅。
“早上好,鹅太太。”丹尼说。
“你能送我点儿什么,当作我妈妈的生日礼物吗?”
