男孩和露珠

編者按：很多同學都說學英文很枯燥，學英文很痛苦，但是其實，如果你放松心情，忘記英語是你的成績衡量器，你便很快能從英語中，感受到另一個世界的美妙，看到更廣闊的天空，來吧！跟小編一起，讀讀這篇《男孩和露珠》。

One morning， a little boy squatted still on the grass in the garden for a long time.

His mother felt so strange that she walked close to see what had happened. The boy，in earnest，squatted in front of a blade of grass，on which a round dew in the sun gave a colorful light，very beautiful. The small boy reached out his hands under the grass silently as he watched the dew.

Seeing his mother walking over to him，the boy said sadly，“Mom，the dews dying.”

The mother said to her son with a smile，“Even if you put your hands under the grass，you cannot stop the dew disappearing from this world.”

T h e b o y s a i d，“Mother，Im only thinking not to throw it in pain when it falls.”

一天早上，一個小男孩蹲在花園的草地上，久久不動。

母親覺得蹊蹺，便湊上前看個究竟。只見男孩非常認真地蹲在一片莖草葉面前。草葉上，一顆圓圓的露珠，在太陽的照射下，正閃耀著七彩的光芒，格外美麗。小男孩一邊觀察著這滴露珠，一邊把雙手攤開，靜候在草葉下。

看到媽媽走過來，男孩憂傷地說：“媽媽，露珠快要死掉了。”

母親微笑著對兒子說：“你就算把雙手放在草葉下面，還是阻止不了露珠從這個世界上消失的命運啊。”

男孩說：“媽媽，我只是在想，它落下來時，別摔疼了。”
