The Golden Egg
金鹅蛋
A very poor farmer called Edward used to dream all day long about becoming very rich.
以前,有个穷苦的农民,名叫爱德华,他一天到晚就想着变成有钱人。
One morning he was in the milking shed — and dreaming about owning a large herd of cows — when his wife called to him: “Edward, just look what I’ve found! Oh, this must be the most wonderful day of our lives!”
一天早上,他在挤奶的棚子里正想着自己有了一大群奶牛呢,这时,他老婆朝他大喊:“爱德华,快看我找到了什么!噢,这真是我们一生中最美妙的事情!”
As he turned to face his wife, Edward rubbed his eyes in disbelief. For there stood his wife, with a goose tucked under her right arm — and a perfect golden egg in her left hand.
爱德华转过来看着自己老婆。他揉了揉眼睛,不敢相信眼前的一切:他老婆站在那里,右胳膊下面夹着一只鹅,左手里分明是只金鹅蛋。
She laughed happily as she said, “No, no you’re not dreaming now. We really do have a goose that lays golden eggs. Oh, just think how rich we’ll be if she lays an egg like this every day. We must give her the best treatment possible.”
她一边开心地笑着,一边说:“不是,不是,这不是在做梦。我们真的有只能下金蛋的鹅。哎呀,你想想,要是它每天都下一只这样的蛋,我们会变得多么富有。我们一定要把最好的东西拿出来伺候这只鹅。”
During the weeks that followed that is exactly what they did.
接下来的几个礼拜,他们确实尽心竭力照顾这只鹅。
Each day they led her the lush gre*n grass by the village pond , and each night they settled her down on a bed of straw in a warm corner of the kitchen.
每一天,他们都把它带到村子池塘边上那片郁郁葱葱的草地上。一到晚上,他们就把它安顿在厨房的墙角那个温暖的稻草床上休息。
