LESSON 60 A GOOD LITTLE GIRL
第六十课 一个善良的小女孩
The wind was blowing very hard as two boys were on their way to school. In the street they met an old man, who could hardly walk.
两小男孩上学的途中,风猛烈的刮着。在街上,他们遇到了一个基本不能行走的老人。
Just as they passed him, the wind blew the old man's hat off. It was carried quickly up the street; but the old man was not able to run after it.
正当他们走过老人,风把老人的帽子吹开了。很快被吹到街的上空;但是老人完全追不上。
Stop, my boys, please, and pick up my hat," cried the old man, "else I am afraid I shall lose it."
"停下来,小男孩,请帮我捡起我的帽子,"老人尖叫到,否则,我怕我会失去它。
But the boys stood still, and only laughed; they thought it was fine fun to see the hat blown about.
但是小男孩站那儿,还发出笑声;他们帽子被吹来吹去很好玩。
Just then a little girl who was going to the same school came in sight. Without waiting to be asked, she ran at once and caught the hat.
就在这时候,一个要去同一个学校的女孩走进了视野。没等着被叫,她立刻跑了起来抓住了帽子。
Then she brought it back to the old man. But before giving it to him, she carefully wiped it.
然后她把帽子给了老人。但是在给老人之前,她仔细的擦了一下帽子。
Thank you, my dear," he said, "for your kindness to a poor old man."
谢谢你,亲爱的小女孩,"老人说到"谢谢你对可怜老人的善意"
The boys and the girl went onward to school. But the teacher had seen them from one of the windows.
两男孩和女孩向学校走去。但是老师已经从其中的一个窗户看过了他们。
When lessons were over, he told the children in the school all about the old man's hat.
课结束的时候,他告诉学校所有孩子老人帽子的事情。
Then he went to his desk and took out a pretty picture-book, which he gave to the little girl for her kindness.
然后他走向他的桌子拿出一个精致的画书,作为对女孩善意的表扬
Inside the cover her name was written, and beneath it this verse:
女孩的名字被写在了封面里,名字的下面是一首诗:
Little deeds of kindness,
善的小种,
Little words of love,
爱的微言,
Make this earth an Eden
让世界成为伊甸园
Like the heaven above."
向上面的天堂一样
The boys felt ashamed and sorry for their conduct to the poor old man.
男孩万分惭愧,为他们对可怜老人的行为后悔。
