癞蛤蟆和青蛙

一只癞蛤蟆在路边看到一只青蛙。那是只又胖又老的青蛙。他坐在那里呻吟叹息着。
癞蛤蟆说：“青蛙先生，不要呻吟叹息了。像我一样跳吧。沿着这条路跳。”
所以青蛙和癞蛤蟆一起沿着小路跳到一棵大橡树下。
“我到家了，”癞蛤蟆说，“进来吧，我来泡茶。”
但青蛙用低沉的声音说：“我不能在离家远的地方闲逛，我要回我在池塘边上的家。”

The Toad and the Frog

A toad saw a frog near the road. He was a fat old frog. He sat and moaned and groaned.
The toad said, “Do not moan and groan, Mr. Frog. Hop like me. Hop down the road.”
So the frog and the toad went down the road to a big oak tree.
“I am home,” said the toad. “Come in and I will make tea.”
But Mr. Frog said, in a deep croak, “I must not roam far from home. I will be off to my home near the pond.”
