鸡毛鸭的隔壁搬来了很讲礼貌的河狸一家。
有一天,河狸大嫂跑过来。
她对鸡毛鸭的妈妈说:“哎呀鸭大姐,谢谢你呀,真要谢谢你!”
鸭妈妈莫名其妙:“为什么要谢我?我没有为你家做什么好事呀。”
河狸大嫂说:“你家正在烤玉米吧?”
“你怎么知道?”
“我们两家的烟道是相通的,你家烤玉米的味儿传到我家,哎呀,简直香极了,太好闻了!”
“没想到是这么回事。”鸭妈妈笑道,“河狸妹子,你是特地来谢谢的吗?没有别的事?”
“没别的事,”河狸大嫂说,“闻了人家的香味不谢谢人家,这好意思吗?”
“河狸妹子,你太客气了。”
她们俩说的话都被鸡毛鸭听见了。
又一天,鸡毛鸭闻到厨房里飘出鱼汤的香味。
他问妈妈:“中午吃鱼呀?”
“不是,”鸭妈妈说,“是隔壁河狸家在煮鱼,咱们两家烟道相通,鱼汤味儿飘过来了。”
“那,妈妈,”鸡毛鸭说,“我们应该去谢谢人家呀。”
鸭妈妈发着愣:“有这个必要吗?”
鸡毛鸭说:“闻了人家的香味不谢谢人家,这怎么好意思!”
说完,鸡毛鸭就跑到河狸家说了“谢谢”,还称赞他家的鱼汤味儿香极了,太好闻了。
又过了几天。
鸡毛鸭苦着脸问妈妈:“这是什么味?难闻死了!”
鸭妈妈说:“你爸爸要治病,我在给他熬药,药味儿确实有点难闻的。”
鸡毛鸭想了想:“妈妈,这股难闻的药味儿,会不会被河狸家闻到?”
“完全有可能的,”妈妈说,“因为我们两家的烟道是相通的。”
“那,妈妈,”鸡毛鸭说,“我们应该去向人家说‘对不起’。”
鸭妈妈吃惊了:“有这个必要吗?”
鸡毛鸭说:“让人家闻了很难闻的味儿不说‘对不起’,这怎么好意思!”
One day, Paula and Richard decided to make a kite.
First they went out and found two straight sticks of the same length. They brought them back home and tied them with a piece of string into the shape of a cross. Then they took some string and used it to tie the four ends of the sticks together. Then, they spread some brightly coloured paper over the frame and glued it around the string.They stuck a tail made of paper to one of the corners, and tied a long string to the centre of the kite.
On the next windy day, they took the kite to a hill near their house and flew it.
一天,保罗和理查德决定做一个风筝。
首先,他们出门找了两根一样长的直木棍。他们把木棍带回家,用一根绳子把它们绑成十字形。然后他们又拿了些绳子,把木棍的四个顶端连在一起。然后,他们把一些颜色鲜艳的纸涂上胶水,粘在风筝的框架上。他们将纸做的尾巴粘在一角,在风筝中间系上一根长绳。
在接下来的一个有风的日子里,他们就在家附近的小山上放风筝了。
nowadays, we can see some boys and girls who live in a small world of their own. they bury themselves among books and are proud of themselves. they think that it will make them lose their face if they do housework for they often think themselves very noble.
these young people are wrong. in my opinion every student should have a knowledge of housework. after all, they will have a family of their own, and they should do their part in keeping a good home. boys should also learn to do housework, for what will they do if they remain single? though not all boys remain single,yet they will be very helpful in the family if they know some housework. anyhow they will not lose anything, but, on the contrary, they will gain something useful.
for what i said above, we can find some eamples of our fellow-students studying abroad. all young men do housework as girls do. someone would argue that we can employ servants. this is true.however, what shall we do if the servant leaves us and all things are left to ourselves? we just cannot leave our clothes as they are and let worms and ants eat them up. and what can we do it we go and study in a foreign country where servants are out our means to employ? we must work for ourselves. why not start to learn to do housework now or else it will be too late? everyone should learn to do housework. what do you think about my idea, boys and girls?
