英语故事带翻译：The Ugly Ducking 丑小鸭

One lovely summer in the country, Mother Duck sat on her nest.She had been waiting for her eggs to hatch for a long time.Finally one egg began to crack.And then another.From each shell came a tiny golden creature crying,”Peep!Peep!” Soon all the eggs were hatched,except one.

At last the largest egg hatched.A young bird peeked out,crying “Peep!Peep!”like the others.But this ducking was gray and quite larger,and very ugly.

Mother Duck stared at her new baby.”You are not like my other ducklings,”she said,”I wonder if you are really my turkey,and not a duckling at all?”

She took her ducklings to the riverbank to practice their swimming.Mother Duck watched her largest baby,because it is well known that turkeys cannot swim.

All the ducklings jumped fearlessly into the river, Even the ugly duckling swam gracefully. thought Mother Duck:” He is not a turkey at all.”

Mother Ducj brought her family to live on the nearby farm, but the ugly duckling was very unhappy there.All the other ducks picked on him, calling him names and stealing his food.Even the chickens laughed at the ugly duckling, and one turkey pecked at him in a most vicious way. The poor duckling decided he must run away.” There is no home for an ugly duckling, “he said miserably. He closed his eyes and waddled away.

Through the winter he almost starved and nearly froze.Then,one day the warm spring came,The duckling tested his wings and found that they were strong.He dlew,landing by chance in a beautiful garden with a very clear pond.And in the pond were three beautiful white swans.

The duckling swam toward the beautiful swans, though he knew they would laugh and tell him to go away.”I’d just like to see them,if only for a moment, “thought the ugly duckling.

But the swans did not laugh or tell him go away. The swans stroked his neck and welcomed him.The duckling happened to glance down at the watermwhere he saw his own reflection. He was no longer a gray,ugly  bird.He had grown up to be a beautiful white swan!


一个可爱的夏天，鸭妈妈坐在她的巢中。她孵化了很长时间的蛋。第一个蛋开始破裂，然后另一个。每个壳钻出来金色的小动物在哭，很快，几乎所有孵化蛋，都完成了使命，还剩下最大的一个。

最后，最大的蛋也钻出来一个哭闹的小鸭。但这小鸭是灰色的，相当大的，很难看。
鸭妈妈盯着她新生的婴儿。“你是不是像我的其他的小鸭子，”她说着，把鸭子带到河边练习游泳。鸭妈妈看着她最大的婴儿，会不会游泳。
所有的小鸭无畏地跳到河里，甚至丑小鸭游的也很棒。

母亲带着她的家人住在附近的农场，但丑小鸭很不高兴在那里。所有其它的鸭子欺负他，连鸡都嘲笑他是丑小鸭。可怜的小鸭决定他要逃跑。他蹒跚着走开了。

在冬天，他几乎饿死，几乎冻结在河面上。有一天，暖和的春天来了，丑小鸭测试自己的翅膀，发现它们是很强的。他飞了起来，落在了一个美丽的花园旁，一个池塘里。池塘里还有三只美丽的白天鹅。

丑小鸭游向这些美丽的天鹅，尽管他知道他们会笑着告诉他走开。“我想看到他们，即使只有片刻，”丑小鸭在想。

但是，天鹅没有笑他，也没有让他走开。天鹅抚摸着他的脖子，欢迎他。他瞥了一眼池塘自己的倒影的，他不再是灰色的，丑陋的小鸭。他长大了，是一个美丽的白天鹅！（幼儿教育）
