1、Sometimes, when in the house I stay, Another house comes in my mind.Its walls are hills far, far away; The high-up roof with sky is lined; The grass is carpet on the floors, Of this big house of out-of-doors.Lesson 1Out-of-DoorsFor curtains there are leafy trees;For lights there are the moon and sun
2、; One cannot ever lose the keys,For it is home to everyone.The front doors always open wide, To this big house of all-outside.Anna Bird Stewart户外有时候,当我待在房子里的时候, 另一所房子在我的脑海中浮现。 它的墙是很远、很远以外的群山; 高高的房顶与天空相连;青草是地毯,铺在户外这所大房子的地上。茂密的树木做窗帘;月亮和太阳是灯盏; 钥匙从来都不会丢失,因为它是每个人的家园。对于户外的一切而言,这所大房子的前门永远不关。安娜伯德斯图尔特The wor

9、t has lessons to learn? One of these is to listen to his mother, for she knows many ways by which a rabbit may protect himself from his enemies. This story tells you how a little bunny got into trouble because he did not obey his mother.MOTHER RABBIT S PLANBunnyboy was a half-grown cottontail rabbit
10、, whose home was in the woods. He lived with his mother and brothers and sisters in the burrow, a nice warm hole that went down into the ground under an old tree stump.One bright morning Mother Rabbit thought that she would go to a field where she knew there were some early cabbages.Children, she sa
11、id, if you are good while I am gone, I will bring you some juicy cabbage leaves. You must stay quietly at home.But Bunnyboy followed his mother out of the burrow, saying, I dont want tostay at home, Mother. Please take me with you.No, no, Bunnyboy! said Mother Rabbit. You are too young to go on such
12、 a long trip. But if you will keep very quiet, I will let you stay in a clump of bushes while I am gone. You can see all around you, and it will be almost as much fun as if you went with me.So Mother Rabbit took Bunnyboy to a thick clump of bushes near the burrow and left him there alone. Then away
13、she hopped to the cabbage field.For a while Bunnyboy slept, dreaming of juicy cabbage leaves. But before long he awoke, sat up, and yawned. How he wished that his mother had taken him with her! Surely he was large enough to go.He was certain that he could run almost as fast as she could. He did not
14、think his mothe really knew how much he had grown or how well he could take care of himself.WHAT HAPPENED WHEN BUNNYBOY RAN AWAYFor a long time Bunnyboy sat very still in the clump of bushes. But by and by he crept out carefully, and looked about.As he sat there with the sunlight falling on his head
15、 and shoulders, he was the most beautiful little creature in the whole great woods. When he thought he heard a sound, his long ears wiggled this way and that, trying to find out what it was.His large, bright eyes looked carefully at everything near him. His nose tried to smell all the different scen
16、ts of the woods.Bunnyboys mother had given him and his little brothers and sisters many lessons on the dangers of the woods. She had taught him to listen, to look, and to smell. For there were the three ways of protecting himself from his enemieslistening, looking, and smelling.小兔哥的一课(1) 克拉伦斯霍克斯你知道吗
17、?就连一只小兔子也要学习很多事情。其中一课就是要听妈妈的话,因为她知道很多兔子用来保护自己免遭敌人伤害的方法。这个故事讲述了一只小兔子因为不听妈妈的话而遇到了麻烦。兔妈妈的计划小兔哥是一只半大的棉尾兔。他的家在树林里。他和妈妈以及兄弟姐妹们一起住在地洞里一个温暖而漂亮的洞穴,在一个老树桩下的底下。一个晴朗的早晨,兔妈妈想要去一处田野,她知道那里有一些早熟的卷心菜。“孩子们,”她说,“我不在家的时候如果你们表现得很好,我会给你们带一些鲜嫩的卷心菜叶回来。你们必须安安静静地待在家里。”小兔哥却跟着妈妈出了地洞,他说:“我不想待在家里,妈妈,请带我一起去吧。”“不,不行,小兔哥!”兔妈妈说,“你太小
18、了走不了那么远的路。不过如果你能保持安静的话,我不在的时候可以让你待在一个灌木丛里。你能够看到周围的一切,这几乎同跟我在一起外出一样有趣。于是兔妈妈把小兔哥带到地洞旁边的一个茂密的灌木丛里,让他自己待在那里。然后她一蹦一跳地去了卷心菜地。一会儿小兔哥睡着了,梦见了鲜嫩的卷心菜叶。但是,不久他就醒了,坐起来打了一个呵欠。他多么希望妈妈把他带在身边啊!他已经够大了,可以外出了。小兔哥确信自己几乎能跟妈妈跑得一样快。妈妈其实不知道,他已经长大了,能够照顾自己了。小兔哥跑远时发生的事情小兔哥在灌木丛里一动不动地坐了很长一段时间。又过了不久,他小心翼翼地爬了出来,四下张望。小兔哥坐在那里的时候,阳光洒在
19、他的头上和肩上,他是整个大森林中最漂亮的小动物。当他感觉听到一个声音时,长耳朵摆动着试图弄清楚那是什么声音。小兔哥用明亮的大眼睛仔细地观察着周围的一切。他用鼻子努力去闻树林中所有不同的味道。小兔哥的妈妈已经教给他和他的兄弟姐妹们很多关于树林中的危险的课程。她曾教他听、看和闻。因为避开敌人、保护自己的三种方法就是听、看和闻。BUNNYBOY LEARNS A LESSON (2)Lesson 4The woods were very quiet. Bunnyboy was sure that not one of his enemies was about. There is no hawk o
20、r owl or fox in the whole woods, he said. What fun it would be to jump around on the green forest carpet! So he took a few hopsaway from the bushes.Something said to him just as plainly as though his mother had spoken, Goback, go back! At first he listened to the voice and went back, but soon he was
21、 out in the green woods again, hopping from place to place.He hopped upon an old log and ran back and forth on it; then he jumped into a clump of green ferns. Soon Bunnyboy was frisking and running through the woods, having the very best time he had ever had in his life.But suddenly a strange scent
22、came to him. It was not like anything that he had ever smelled before. At once he froze and waited. Freezing is one of the ways in which the wild creatures hide. It means to stay perfectly still. If a rabbit not move, it is very hard to see him among the ferns and leaves. So Bunnyboyfroze and waited
23、.doesPresently he saw a very strange animal coming slowly through the woods. He was a strange-looking fellow, covered with long, sharp quills. It was Mr. Porcupine, but as Mother Rabbit had never shown her children a porcupine, the young bunny did not know this stranger.Bunnyboy kept so still that M
24、r. Porcupine passed very close to him without seeing him. The young rabbit was terribly frightened. At last Mr. Porcupine was gone, and Bunnyboy was very glad. Then he thought he would go back to hisclump of bushes. Off he started, but he could not find the bushes. Faster and faster he ran, but the
25、more he ran, the farther away the bushes seemed.At last he sat down to think. Where was the clump of bushes? His mother must have come home by this time. She would be very angry with him for running away.Just at that moment he saw a large, white, round ball sticking to the inside of an old tree trun
26、k. Never in his life had he seen such a ball as that; he would find out what it was.So he crept up to the ball slowly, stopping to sniff the air and to listen. There was a strange buzzing noise coming from the ball that sounded like flies. Bunnyboy liked to catch flies, and here was a whole ball of
27、them. What a fine time he would have! With a quick hop he went up and sniffed at the ball.树林里很安静。小兔哥确信周围没有任何敌人。“整个树林里没有老鹰、猫头鹰和狐狸,” 他说,“在绿色的森林地毯上跳来跳去该多好玩啊!”于是,他向灌木丛外跳了几步。有个声音对他说:“回去,回去!”像妈妈说得一样清晰。刚开始,他听从了这个声音回去了, 但是不久他又出来了,在绿色的树林里跳来跳去。小兔哥跳上一根旧的原木,在上面来来回回跑,然后他跳进了一丛绿色的蕨类植物里。很快, 小兔哥就活蹦乱跳地在树林里跑起来了,享受着从未有
28、过的快乐时光。突然,小兔哥闻到了一个奇怪的气味。它不像他以前闻到过的任何味道。他立即 “原地不动”, 等待着。原地不动是野生动物隐藏的方法之一。如果兔子不移动的话,在蕨类植物和叶子中很难被发现。所以小兔哥原地不动,等待着。不久,小兔哥看见一个非常奇怪的动物正缓慢地在树林里穿行。他全身长满了长长的、尖尖的刺。他是豪猪先生,但是因为兔妈妈从来都没有给她的孩子们描述过豪猪的样子,所以小兔哥不认识这个奇怪的家伙。小兔哥一动不动,以至于豪猪先生从他的跟前经过的时候都没有看见他。这个年幼的小兔子非常害怕。终于,豪猪先生走了,小兔哥非常高兴。他想他该回灌木丛了。他开始行动,但是他找不到那个灌木丛了。他跑得越
29、来越快,但是他跑得越快,似乎离那个灌木丛就越远。最后,小兔哥坐下来想,那个灌木丛在哪里呢?这时候他的妈妈一定已经回家了。她肯定会因为他跑开了而很生气。就在这时,小兔哥看见一个白色的大圆球黏在一个老树干的里面。他从来都没有见过这种球, 小兔哥要去弄清楚它是什么。于是,他慢慢地向大球爬去,停下来闻一闻气味,听一听声音。从大球里传出来一种奇怪的嗡嗡声,听起来像苍蝇。小兔哥喜欢捉苍蝇,听起来整个球里都是苍蝇。这将是多么美好的时刻呀!他迅速地跳上前去,闻那个球。Lesson 5BUNNYBOY LEARNS A LESSON (3)At the very first sniff he leaped in
30、to the air. For the ball was a hornets nest, andhornets do not like to have rabbits hopping about their nest.At once they flew out to punish him. They stung him on the nose and about the eyes. They stung his ears and shoulders and back. Bunnyboy ran wildly this way and that, with the hornets stickin
31、g to him. He jumped into the thickest ferns, rolling and tumbling, until at last he had rubbed them all off.His nose, eyes, and ears burned as though they were on fire. Poor Bunnyboy rubbed them with his paw, but the more he rubbed, the more they burned. At last his eyelids began to swell and to clo
32、se around his eyes.This frightened Bunnyboy terribly, and he started running again. If he could only find his mother before his eyes closed! But he could not find her, though he ran and ran.Soon his eyelids were closed tightly, and he could not see to run. Then the poor little rabbit sat down in the
33、 woods, far, far from home.Suddenly an awful thought came to him. Now that he could not see, any of his enemies could get him. The fox could creep up on him. The owl could swoop down upon him. Every sound he heard frightened him. At last he crawled into some bushes and lay there quietly, the most un
34、happy little bunny in the wholeworld.HOW BUNNYBOY GOT HOMEBunnyboy lay there a long time. At last he heard a noise; the sound was coming toward him.Was it an enemy or a friend? It sounded like a rabbit hopping along the path. But it might be a fox! Bunnyboy listened hard.The sound came very close to
35、 him. He was almost sure that it was a rabbit hopping slowly along the path. So he made a strange little cry.Then Bunnyboys mother came hopping quickly along the path toward him. When she saw how terribly he had been punished for not obeying her, she did not scold him. He had learned his lesson. Ver
36、y gently she led him down to the brook.Then she made him rub his face in the cool mud until it was covered. Keep your eyes shut, she said. Tomorrow we will come back to the brook and wash the mud off.When Bunnyboy reached the burrow, he was so muddy that his brothers and sisters did not know him. Bu
37、t they made a soft place for him in the burrow and were very quiet all the rest of the day.小兔哥刚刚跳起来闻了一下,结果那个球是个黄蜂窝,大黄蜂不喜欢兔子在他们窝边跳来跳去。黄蜂们立刻飞出来惩罚小兔子。他们在他的鼻子上和眼睛周围蜇他。他们蜇他的耳朵、肩膀和背部。小兔哥带着这些蜇他的黄蜂疯狂地到处乱跑。他跳进茂密的蕨类植物里,不停地打滚、翻跟头,直到把他们都蹭掉。小兔子的鼻子、眼睛和耳朵火烧火燎的,就像着了火一样。可怜的小兔哥用他的爪子揉擦着, 可是他越揉越觉得烧得厉害。最后他的眼皮开始肿胀,都快把眼睛封
38、住了。这让小兔哥非常的害怕,他又开始跑起来。如果他能在眼睛被封住之前找到妈妈就好了!尽管他不停地跑啊跑啊,但是他没能找到她。很快,小兔子的眼皮紧紧地合在了一起。他看不见路,不能跑了。可怜的小兔子在离家很远、很远的树林里坐了下来。突然小兔子产生了一个可怕的念头。既然他看不见了,他的任何一个敌人都能抓住他。狐狸会慢慢地爬向他。猫头鹰会突然向他扑下来。他所听到的每一个声响都使他感到害怕。最后, 他爬进一片灌木里,静静地躺在那里,他成了世界上最不幸的小兔子。小兔哥如何回家小兔哥在那里躺了很长时间。最后他听到一个声音,那个声音正向他这边移动过来。是敌人还是朋友?听起来像一只兔子在小路上跳跃,但也可能是一
39、只狐狸!小兔哥努力地听着。声音离他越来越近,他几乎可以确定那就是一只兔子在小路上慢慢地跳跃。所以他低声发出一声奇怪的叫喊。这时,小兔哥的妈妈沿路迅速地向他跳去。当她看见小兔哥因为没有听她的话而受到严重惩罚时的样子,她没有责怪他。他已经得到了教训。妈妈温和地带着他来到小溪边。然后,兔子妈妈让他在凉凉的泥巴里搓脸,直到脸上都涂满了泥巴。“闭着眼。”她说,“明天我们再回到河边把泥巴洗去。”当小兔哥回到地洞的时候,满脸是泥,他的兄弟姐妹们都没有认出他。他们在地洞里为他腾出了一个柔软的地方,而且在这一天接下来的时间里,他们都很安静。Lesson 6MISHOOK,THE BROWN BEAR CUBIV
40、AN A. SLIVITSKIIf someone asked you these questions about bears, could you answer them? In what kind of home do bears live? What do they eat? What do they do all winter? The story of Mishook will answer these questions, and tell you many other interesting things about bears.IN THE DENIt was March, a
41、nd the air was cold; snow still covered the earth. But inside the cave in which lived Mishook, the brown bear cub, and his little sister, it was very warm.The cubs had thick, dark-brown coats, narrow, blunt noses, and small, round ears. Their tails were so short that they could hardly be seen. Sharp
42、 claws peeped out from their toes.Mishooks first home was the den that Mother Bruin had made for the winter which was just ending. In a well-hidden spot at the foot of a mountain, the old bear had dug a hole about twenty feet long, into which she dragged moss, dead leaves, and grass. When she had ma
43、de these into a soft, warm bed, she piled up a heap of brushwood in front of the hole. In this warm den, Mishook and his sister were born. There they and their mother slept through the long, coldwinter.The bears den was in a thick, black forest in Russia. No wonder this dark home pleased the Bruin f
44、amily. Here they found everything that bears like: mountains and valleys, plenty of mushrooms and berries, and streams full of fish.Mishooks mother always kept her children with her for two years. After that time, they were strong enough to care for themselves and to live alone.Mishook and his littl
45、e sister had an older brother and sister who were not yet quite old enough to leave their mother.The winter had been long, and the cubs had grown very hungry. For four months, they had been shut up in a den without eating, and now they were very thin.There had been nothing for them to do all day lon
46、g but sleep.Still, winter could not stay forever. It was now March, and spring had come at last. The air was warmer; the snow was gone; and the birds were singing gayly. The mother now began to go for walks. Whenever she went out, she always left the little ones in the care of the older children.The
47、n Mishook would tease his big brother, for he was full of fun. The older cub stood the teasing for a long time, but one day he gave Mishook such a slap on the head that the young bear cried aloud. That cry brought the mother into the cave. She flew at her older son, and boxed his ears. You are no longer a young cub like Mishook, she said. Do not be so rough with the little ones.小棕熊米舒克伊凡.A .斯里维茨基如果有人问你关于熊的这些问题,你能回答吗?熊住在什么样的家里?它们吃什么?它们在整个冬天做什么?米舒克的故事将回答这些问题,并告诉你许多关于熊的其他趣事。在洞穴里三月里,天气还很冷,雪仍覆盖着大地。但是,小棕熊米舒克和它妹妹居住的洞穴里很温暖。小熊身披浓密的黑棕色皮毛,有窄钝的鼻子,又小又
