幼儿英语故事简单：聪明的兔子
The Wolf and fox wanted to eat the rabbit, but the rabbit was too hard to catch.
狼和狐狸想要吃掉兔子，但是这只兔子太难抓到了。
One day the Wolf said to the fox, "go home and pretend to lie in bed. I'll tell the rabbit you're dead. When he comes to see you, you can jump up and catch him. "What a good idea! Said the fox.
一天，狼对狐狸说：“你回家假装躺在床上。我去告诉兔子你已经死了。当他来看你的时候，你就可以跳起来抓住他了。”“真是个好主意!”狐狸说。
The fox goes home at once. The wolf goes to the rabbit's house and knocked at the door. "Who is it?" asks the rabbit. "It's the wolf. I come to tell you that the fox is dead." Then the wolf goes away.
于是他立刻回到家。狼去兔子的房前敲了敲门，“是谁啊?”兔子问道。“狼，我是来告诉你狐狸已经死了。”说完狼就走开了。
The rabbit goes to the fox's house. He looked in through the window and sees the fox lying in bed with his eyes closed. He thinks, "Is the fox really dead or is he pretending to be dead? If he's not dead, he'll catch me when I go near him." so he said, "The wolf says that the fox is dead. But he doesn't look like a dead fox. The mouth of a dead fox is always open.
兔子去狐狸家看情况。他通过狐狸家的窗户看到闭着眼睛的狐狸躺在床上。他想，狐狸是真的死了，还是在假装呢?如果他没有死，那么我走近他就会被他抓住。于是他说：“狼说狐狸死了。但是他看起来并不像死掉了呀。死去的狐狸通常都是张着嘴的。”狐狸听到这些话就想：我得证明自己是真的死了。于是他张开了嘴巴。
" When the fox hears this, he thinks, "I'll show him that I'm dead." So he opened his mouth.
这时兔子知道狐狸并没有死，他就以最快的速度跑开啦。

The Ugly Duckling

Long ago, in a farmyard many miles away, a Mother Duck sat on her nest. She was waiting for her eggs to hatch. Each day she proudly looked at them. There were six eggs, which meant six little ducklings to teach to swim.

One sunny spring morning, the first egg began to crack..

\'Tap, tap, tap,\' went the duckling inside, trying to get out. Mother Duck watched as the egg cracked open and out popped a fluffy duckling.

"One," said Mother Duck proudly.

The next day, the second egg hatched and out popped another fluffy duckling.

"Two," said Mother Duck proudly.

On the third day, duckling number three hatched.

"That leaves just three," said Mother Duck.

On the fourth and fifth day, ducklings number four and five hatched.

"That leaves just one," said Mother Duck, as she settled on her nest. Her ducklings gathered around her.

But on the sixth day nothing happened. Nor on the seventh.

"How strange," said Mother Duck on the seventh day. "It should have hatched by now."

One of the farmyard chickens wandered by.

"Oh," she said. "You\'re still there I thought you\'d be on the pond by now."

"It\'s this last egg," said Mother Duck. "It hasn\'t hatched yet."

"Let me see," said the chicken. "Well no wonder. It looks like a goose egg to me. You\'ll be here for a long time."

"Oh dear," said Mother Duck. "I have my five little ducklings to teach to swim. What shall I do? I can\'t leave it."

"Aah well," said the chicken, and she wandered off.

The goose heard that one of her eggs was in Mother Duck\'s nest.

"Is it true?" she asked, as she puffed up to the nest. "Do you have one of my eggs?"

"I think so," said Mother Duck. They both looked in the nest.

"Huh," said the goose. "That\'s not mine. It looks more like that absent-minded turkey\'s egg."

As they looked, they suddenly heard the faint tapping. The shell was breaking.

"We\'ll soon see," said the goose.

They watched and waited.

"Oh," said the goose.

"Oh, dear," said Mother Duck, as she looked at the sixth duckling. It looked most strange, it was straggly and grey where its brothers and sisters were fluffy and yellow. It was also bigger than them.

It quacked as it saw its mother.

"Well, if it\'s a turkey," said the goose, "it won\'t swim."

Mother Duck hurried her ducklings to the pond. She waddled in and listened. Splash! Splish! Splosh! Splash! Splish! She turned and looked. All six ducklings followed her in the water.

"Oh, well," she said. "He can swim. He is definitely not a turkey."

The sixth duckling was very good at swimming, and was soon swimming better than his brothers and sisters.

Back at the farmyard, things did not go well for the little duckling. Everyone called him an ugly duckling. The chickens laughed at him, the turkeys chased him and the geese hissed at him.

Soon even his brothers and sisters would not talk to him, but when his mother turned away, he was very sad. He decided to leave the farmyard.

One sunny morning, he walked out of the farmyard and didn\'t look back. He wandered away, looking for somewhere new to live.

When he\'d been walking a while he came to a large lake. There were some ducks swimming on it.

He swam up to them.

"May I stay on this lake?" he asked.

"Of course," said the ducks. "We\'ll be moving on soon. Why don\'t you join us, if you\'re on your own?"

"Thank you," said the duckling.

The duckling stayed on the lake and day by day he grew bigger. One day he looked up to see some large white birds flying gracefully over the lake.

"They\'re beautiful," he whispered, and then sighed. "I wonder who they are?"

One day the ducks came to see him.

"It\'s autumn, and we\'re going now," they told him, "join us if you want to."

Some ducks began to fly up to leave, but suddenly loud bangs were heard. Two of the ducks fell from the sky. Others flew up in fright, and more fell as more bangs were heard.

The duckling ran and hid. He found a bush and stayed there until the noise had died down. When it was quiet he sadly left the lake and headed away over the fields.

He came to another lake and there he stayed. Winter was coming and he was alone. As the days grew colder, he found that it was harder to find food.

The one morning he woke and found that he couldn\'t move. The lake had frozen and he was stuck in the ice. The day passed and the duckling was giving up hope of being found. But late in the afternoon a man walking his dog saw him. He broke the ice, and the duckling was free. He ran across the ice and hid. He didn\'t dare to go on the ice again.

Winter passed, spring came, and the ice melted.

The duckling stretched his wings and found that they were strong enough to carry him. He flew upon and over the lake, high above the trees and fields. He should have been very happy, but he was not because he felt so lonely.

A few days later, he looked up to see the large white birds he had seen in the autumn. They looked beautiful as they landed on the lake. The duckling admired their glossy white feathers and long necks. He swan over to take a closer look at them.

"Please," he said shyly. "Will you tell me who you are. You are so beautiful and I am so ugly. I\'ve never seen anybody like you."

"Ugly," cried one of the white birds. "How silly!"

"We\'re swans," said another. "Why do you think you\'re ugly? Look at yourself in the water."

The duckling looked and caught sight of his own reflection. He gasped in surprise, for instead of seeing a fat, grey duckling he saw a swan with a long elegant neck and a bright orange bill. "I\'m like you," he cried. "I\'m a swan, too."

"Definitely," said the swan, with a smile.

"Does that mean I can stay with you, and not live alone?"

"Of course," said the swans.

At that moment two children ran down to the lake. "Ooh, look!" they cried. "The swans are back and there\'s a new one, too. Isn\'t he beautiful!"

The ugly duckling stretched his neck and ruffled his feathers with pride.

Then it was time to go flying with all of the other swans and, as the duckling took off from the lake, he could see his new beautiful reflection in the water.
乡下真是非常美丽。这正是夏天！小麦是金黄的，燕麦是绿油油的。干草在绿色的牧场 上堆成垛，鹳鸟用它又长又红的腿子在散着步，噜嗦地讲着埃及话。（注：因为据丹麦的民 间传说，鹳鸟是从埃及飞来的。）这是它从妈妈那儿学到的一种语言。田野和牧场的周围有些大森林，森林里有些很深的池塘。的确，乡间是非常美丽的，太阳光正照着一幢老式的房子，它周围流着几条很深的小溪。从墙角那儿一直到水里，全盖满了牛蒡的大叶子。最大的叶子长得非常高，小孩子简直可以直着腰站在下面。像在最浓密的森林里一样，这儿也是很荒凉的。这儿有一只母鸭坐在窠里，她得把她的几个小鸭都孵出来。不过这时她已经累坏了
。很少有客人来看她。别的鸭子都愿意在溪流里游来游去，而不愿意跑到牛蒡下面来和她聊天。
最后，那些鸭蛋一个接着一个地崩开了。“噼！噼！”蛋壳响起来。所有的蛋黄现在都 变成了小动物。他们把小头都伸出来。 “嘎！嘎！”母鸭说。他们也就跟着嘎嘎地大声叫起来。他们在绿叶子下面向四周看。 妈妈让他们尽量地东张西望，因为绿色对他们的眼睛是有好处的。“这个世界真够大！”这些年轻的小家伙说。的确，比起他们在蛋壳里的时候，他们现在的天地真是大不相同了。“你们以为这就是整个世界！”妈妈说。“这地方伸展到花园的另一边，一直伸展到牧师的田里去，才远呢！连我自己都没有去过！我想你们都在这儿吧？”她站起来。“没有，我还没有把你们都生出来呢！这只顶大的蛋还躺着没有动静。它还得躺多久呢？我真是有些烦了。”于是她又坐下来。“唔，情形怎样？”一只来拜访她的老鸭子问。“这个蛋费的时间真久！”坐着的母鸭说。“它老是不裂开。请你看看别的吧。他们真是一些最逗人爱的小鸭儿！都像他们的爸爸——这个坏东西从来没有来看过我一次！”“让我瞧瞧这个老是不裂开的蛋吧，”这位年老的客人说，“请相信我，这是一只吐绶鸡的蛋。有一次我也同样受过骗，你知道，那些小家伙不知道给了我多少麻烦和苦恼，因为他们都不敢下水。我简直没有办法叫他们在水里试一试。我说好说歹，一点用也没有！——让我来瞧瞧这只蛋吧。哎呀！这是一只吐绶鸡的蛋！让他躺着吧，你尽管叫别的孩子去游泳
好了。”“我还是在它上面多坐一会儿吧，”鸭妈妈说，“我已经坐了这么久，就是再坐它一个
星期也没有关系。” “那么就请便吧，”老鸭子说。于是她就告辞了。
最后这只大蛋裂开了。“噼！噼！”新生的这个小家伙叫着向外面爬。他是又大又丑。鸭妈妈把他瞧了一眼。“这个小鸭子大得怕人，”她说，“别的没有一个像他；但是他一点也不像小吐绶鸡！好吧，我们马上就来试试看吧。他得到水里去，我踢也要把他踢下水去。”第二天的天气是又晴和，又美丽。太阳照在绿牛蒡上。鸭妈妈带着她所有的孩子走到溪边来。扑通！她跳进水里去了。“呱！呱！”她叫着，于是小鸭子就一个接着一个跳下去。水淹到他们头上，但是他们马上又冒出来了，游得非常漂亮。他们的小腿很灵活地划着。他们全都在水里，连那个丑陋的灰色小家伙也跟他们在一起游。
“唔，他不是一个吐绶鸡，”她说，“你看他的腿划得多灵活，他浮得多么稳！他是我亲生的孩子！如果你把他仔细看一看，他还算长得蛮漂亮呢。嘎！嘎！跟我一块儿来吧，我把你们带到广大的世界上去，把那个养鸡场介绍给你们看看。不过，你们得紧贴着我，免得别人踩着你们。你们还得当心猫儿呢！”
这样，他们就到养鸡场里来了。场里响起了一阵可怕的喧闹声，因为有两个家族正在争夺一个鳝鱼头，而结果猫儿却把它抢走了。“你们瞧，世界就是这个样子！”鸭妈妈说。她的嘴流了一点涎水，因为她也想吃那个鳝鱼头。“现在使用你们的腿吧！”她说。“你们拿出精神来。你们如果看到那儿的一个老母鸭，你们就得把头低下来，因为她是这儿最有声望的人物。她有西班牙的血统——因为她长得非常胖。你们看，她的腿上有一块红布条。这是一件非常出色的东西，也是一个鸭子可能得到的最大光荣：它的意义很大，说明人们不愿意失去她，动物和人统统都得认识她。打起精神来吧——不要把腿子缩进去。一个有很好教养的鸭子总是把腿摆开的，像爸爸和妈妈一样。好吧，低下头来，说：‘嘎’呀！”他们这样做了。别的鸭子站在旁边看着，同时用相当大的声音说：“瞧！现在又来了一批找东西吃的客人，好像我们的人数还不够多似的！呸！瞧那只小鸭的一副丑相！我们真看不惯！”于是马上有一只鸭子飞过去，在他的脖颈上啄了一下。“请你们不要管他吧，”妈妈说，“他并不伤害谁呀！”“对，不过他长得太大、太特别了，”啄过他的那只鸭子说，“因此他必须挨打！”“那个母鸭的孩子都很漂亮，”腿上有一条红布的那个母鸭说，“他们都很漂亮，只有一只是例外。这真是可惜。我希望能把他再孵一次。”
“那可不能，太太，”鸭妈妈回答说，“他不好看，但是他的脾气非常好。他游起水来也不比别人差——我还可以说，游得比别人好呢。我想他会慢慢长得漂亮的，或者到适当的时候，他也可能缩小一点。他在蛋里躺得太久了，因此他的模样有点不太自然。”她说着，同时在他的脖颈上啄了一下，把他的羽毛理了一理。“此外，他还是一只公鸭呢，”她说，“所以关系也不太大。我想他的身体很结实，将来总会自己找到出路的。”“别的小鸭倒很可爱，”老母鸭说，“你在这儿不要客气。如果你找到鳝鱼头，请把它送给我好了。”他们现在在这儿，就像在自己家里一样。
不过从蛋壳里爬出的那只小鸭太丑了，到处挨打，被排挤，被讥笑，不仅在鸭群中是这样，连在鸡群中也是这样。
“他真是又大又丑！”大家都说。有一只雄吐绶鸡生下来脚上就有距，因此他自以为是一个皇帝。他把自己吹得像一条鼓满了风的帆船，来势汹汹地向他走来，瞪着一双大眼睛，脸上涨得通红。这只可怜的小鸭不知道站在什么地方，或者走到什么地方去好。他觉得非常悲哀，因为自己长得那么丑陋，而且成了全体鸡鸭的一个嘲笑对象。
这是头一天的情形。后来一天比一天糟。大家都要赶走这只可怜的小鸭；连他自己的兄弟姊妹也对他生气起来。他们老是说：“你这个丑妖怪，希望猫儿把你抓去才好！”于是妈妈也说起来：“我希望你走远些！”鸭儿们啄他。小鸡打他，喂鸡鸭的那个女佣人用脚来踢他。
于是他飞过篱笆逃走了；灌木林里的小鸟一见到他，就惊慌地向空中飞去。“这是因为我太丑了！”小鸭想。于是他闭起眼睛，继续往前跑。他一口气跑到一块住着野鸭的沼泽地里。他在这儿躺了一整夜，因为他太累了，太丧气了。
天亮的时候，野鸭都飞起来了。他们瞧了瞧这位新来的朋友。
“你是谁呀？”他们问。小鸭一下转向这边，一下转向那边，尽量对大家恭恭敬敬地行礼。
“你真是丑得厉害，”野鸭们说，“不过只要你不跟我们族里任何鸭子结婚，对我们倒也没有什么大的关系。”可怜的小东西！他根本没有想到什么结婚；他只希望人家准许他躺在芦苇里，喝点沼泽的水就够了。
他在那儿躺了两个整天。后来有两只雁——严格地讲，应该说是两只公雁，因为他们是两个男的——飞来了。他们从娘的蛋壳里爬出来还没有多久，因此非常顽皮。“听着，朋友，”他们说，“你丑得可爱，连我（注：这儿的“我”（jeg）是单数，跟前面的“他们说”不一致，但原文如此。）都禁不住要喜欢你了。你做一个候鸟，跟我们一块儿飞走好吗？另外有一块沼泽地离这儿很近，那里有好几只活泼可爱的雁儿。她们都是小姐，都会说：‘嘎！’你是那么丑，可以在她们那儿碰碰你的运气！”“噼！啪！”天空中发出一阵响声。这两只公雁落到芦苇里，死了，把水染得鲜红。“噼！啪！”又是一阵响声。整群的雁儿都从芦苇里飞起来，于是又是一阵枪声响起来了。原来有人在大规模地打猎。猎人都埋伏在这沼泽地的周围，有几个人甚至坐在伸到芦苇上空的树枝上。蓝色的烟雾像云块似地笼罩着这些黑树，慢慢地在水面上向远方漂去。这时，猎狗都普通普通地在泥泞里跑过来，灯芯草和芦苇向两边倒去。这对于可怜的小鸭说来真是可怕的事情！他把头掉过来，藏在翅膀里。不过，正在这时候，一只骇人的大猎狗紧紧地站在小鸭的身边。它的舌头从嘴里伸出很长，眼睛发出丑恶和可怕的光。它把鼻子顶到这小鸭的身上，露出了尖牙齿，可是——扑通！扑通！——它跑开了，没有把他抓走。
“啊，谢谢老天爷！”小鸭叹了一口气，“我丑得连猎狗也不要咬我了！”他安静地躺下来。枪声还在芦苇里响着，枪弹一发接着一发地射出来。
天快要暗的时候，四周才静下来。可是这只可怜的小鸭还不敢站起来。他等了好几个钟头，才敢向四周望一眼，于是他急忙跑出这块沼泽地，拼命地跑，向田野上跑，向牧场上跑。这时吹起一阵狂风，他跑起来非常困难。到天黑的时候，他来到一个简陋的农家小屋。它是那么残破，甚至不知道应该向哪一边倒才好——因此它也就没有倒。狂风在小鸭身边号叫得非常厉害，他只好面对着它坐下来。它越吹越凶。于是他看到那门上的铰链有一个已经松了，门也歪了，他可以从空隙钻进屋子里去，他便钻进去了。
屋子里有一个老太婆和她的猫儿，还有一只母鸡住在一起。她把这只猫儿叫“小儿子”。他能把背拱得很高，发出咪咪的叫声来；他的身上还能迸出火花，不过要他这样做，你就得倒摸他的毛。母鸡的腿又短又小，因此她叫“短腿鸡儿”。她生下的蛋很好，所以老太婆把她爱得像自己的亲生孩子一样。
第二天早晨，人们马上注意到了这只来历不明的小鸭。那只猫儿开始咪咪地叫，那只母鸡也咯咯地喊起来。“这是怎么一回事儿？”老太婆说，同时朝四周看。不过她的眼睛有点花，所以她以为小鸭是一只肥鸭，走错了路，才跑到这儿来了。“这真是少有的运气！”她说，“现在我可以有鸭蛋了。我只希望他不是一只公鸭才好！我们得弄个清楚！”
这样，小鸭就在这里受了三个星期的考验，可是他什么蛋也没有生下来。那只猫儿是这家的绅士，那只母鸡是这家的太太，所以他们一开口就说：“我们和这世界！”因为他们以为他们就是半个世界，而且还是最好的那一半呢。小鸭觉得自己可以有不同的看法，但是他的这种态度，母鸡却忍受不了。
“你能够生蛋吗？”她问。
“不能！”
“那么就请你不要发表意见。”
于是雄猫说：“你能拱起背，发出咪咪的叫声和迸出火花吗？”
“不能！”
“那么，当有理智的人在讲话的时候，你就没有发表意见的必要！”
小鸭坐在一个墙角里，心情非常不好。这时他想起了新鲜空气和太阳光。他觉得有一种奇怪的渴望：他想到水里去游泳。最后他实在忍不住了，就不得不把心事对母鸡说出来。“你在起什么念头？”母鸡问。“你没有事情可干，所以你才有这些怪想头。你只要生几个蛋，或者咪咪地叫几声，那么你这些怪想头也就会没有了。”
“不过，在水里游泳是多么痛快呀！”小鸭说。“让水淹在你的头上，往水底一钻，那是多么痛快呀！”
“是的，那一定很痛快！”母鸡说，“你简直在发疯。你去问问猫儿吧——在我所认识的一切朋友当中，他是最聪明的——你去问问他喜欢不喜欢在水里游泳，或者钻进水里去。我先不讲我自己。你去问问你的主人——那个老太婆——吧，世界上再也没有比她更聪明的
人了！你以为她想去游泳，让水淹在她的头顶上吗？”
“你们不了解我，”小鸭说。
“我们不了解你？那么请问谁了解你呢？你决不会比猫儿和女主人更聪明吧——我先不提我自己。孩子，你不要自以为了不起吧！你现在得到这些照顾，你应该感谢上帝。你现在到一个温暖的屋子里来，有了一些朋友，而且还可以向他们学习很多的东西，不是吗？不过你是一个废物，跟你在一起真不痛快。你可以相信我，我对你说这些不好听的话，完全是为了帮助你呀。只有这样，你才知道谁是你的真正朋友！请你注意学习生蛋，或者咪咪地叫，或者迸出火花吧！”
“我想我还是走到广大的世界上去好，”小鸭说。
“好吧，你去吧！”母鸡说。
于是小鸭就走了。他一会儿在水上游，一会儿钻进水里去；不过，因为他的样子丑，所有的动物都瞧不其他。秋天到来了。树林里的叶子变成了黄色和棕色。风卷起它们，把它们带到空中飞舞，而空中是很冷的。云块沉重地载着冰雹和雪花，低低地悬着。乌鸦站在篱笆上，冻得只管叫：“呱！呱！”是的，你只要想想这情景，就会觉得冷了。这只可怜的小鸭的确没有一个舒服的时候。
一天晚上，当太阳正在美丽地落下去的时候，有一群漂亮的大鸟从灌木林里飞出来，小鸭从来没有看到过这样美丽的东西。他们白得发亮，颈项又长又柔软。这就是天鹅。他们发出一种奇异的叫声，展开美丽的长翅膀，从寒冷的地带飞向温暖的国度，飞向不结冰的湖上去。
他们飞得很高——那么高，丑小鸭不禁感到一种说不出的兴奋。他在水上像一个车轮似地不停地旋转着，同时，把自己的颈项高高地向他们伸着，发出一种响亮的怪叫声，连他自己也害怕起来。啊！他再也忘记不了这些美丽的鸟儿，这些幸福的鸟儿。当他看不见他们的时候，就沉入水底；但是当他再冒到水面上来的时候，却感到非常空虚。他不知道这些鸟儿的名字，也不知道他们要向什么地方飞去。不过他爱他们，好像他从来还没有爱过什么东西似的。他并不嫉妒他们。他怎能梦想有他们那样美丽呢？只要别的鸭儿准许他跟他们生活在一起，他就已经很满意了——可怜的丑东西。
冬天变得很冷，非常的冷！小鸭不得不在水上游来游去，免得水面完全冻结成冰。不过他游动的这个小范围，一晚比一晚缩小。水冻得厉害，人们可以听到冰块的碎裂声。小鸭只好用他的一双腿不停地游动，免得水完全被冰封闭。最后，他终于昏倒了，躺着动也不动，跟冰块结在一起。
大清早，有一个农民在这儿经过。他看到了这只小鸭，就走过去用木屐把冰块踏破，然后把他抱回来，送给他的女人。他这时才渐渐地恢复了知觉。小孩子们都想要跟他玩，不过小鸭以为他们想要伤害他。他一害怕就跳到牛奶盘里去了，把牛奶溅得满屋子都是。女人惊叫起来，拍着双手。这么一来，小鸭就飞到黄油盆里去了，然后就飞进面粉桶里去了，最后才爬出来。这时他的样子才好看呢！女人尖声地叫起来，拿着火钳要打他。小孩们挤做一团，想抓住这小鸭。他们又是笑，又是叫！——幸好大门是开着的。他钻进灌木林中新下的雪里面去。他躺在那里，几乎像昏倒了一样。要是只讲他在这严冬所受到困苦和灾难，那么这个故事也就太悲惨了。当太阳又开始温暖地照着的时候，他正躺在沼泽地的芦苇里。百灵鸟唱起歌来了——这是一个美丽的春天。忽然间他举起翅膀：翅膀拍起来比以前有力得多，马上就把他托起来飞走了。他不知不觉地已经飞进了一座大花园。这儿苹果树正开着花；紫丁香在散发着香气，它又长又绿的枝条垂到弯弯曲曲的溪流上。啊，这儿美丽极了，充满了春天的气息！三只美丽的白天鹅从树荫里一直游到他面前来。他们轻飘飘地浮在水上，羽毛发出飕飕的响声。小鸭认出这些美丽的动物，于是心里感到一种说不出的难过。
“我要飞向他们，飞向这些高贵的鸟儿！可是他们会把我弄死的，因为我是这样丑，居然敢接近他们。不过这没有什么关系！被他们杀死，要比被鸭子咬、被鸡群啄，被看管养鸡场的那个女佣人踢和在冬天受苦好得多！”于是他飞到水里，向这些美丽的天鹅游去：这些动物看到他，马上就竖起羽毛向他游来。“请你们弄死我吧！”这只可怜的动物说。他把头低低地垂到水上，只等待着死。但是他在这清澈的水上看到了什么呢？他看到了自己的倒影。但那不再是一只粗笨的、深灰色的、又丑又令人讨厌的鸭子，而却是——一只天鹅！只要你曾经在一只天鹅蛋里待过，就算你是生在养鸭场里也没有什么关系。
对于他过去所受的不幸和苦恼，他现在感到非常高兴。他现在清楚地认识到幸福和美正在向他招手。——许多大天鹅在他周围游泳，用嘴来亲他。
花园里来了几个小孩子。他们向水上抛来许多面包片和麦粒。最小的那个孩子喊道：“你们看那只新天鹅！”别的孩子也兴高采烈地叫起来：“是的，又来了一只新的天鹅！”于是他们拍着手，跳起舞来，向他们的爸爸和妈妈跑去。他们抛了更多的面包和糕饼到水里，同时大家都说：“这新来的一只最美！那么年轻，那么好看！”那些老天鹅不禁在他面前低下头来。
他感到非常难为情。他把头藏到翅膀里面去，不知道怎么办才好。他感到太幸福了，但他一点也不骄傲，因为一颗好的心是永远不会骄傲的。他想其他曾经怎样被人迫害和讥笑过，而他现在却听到大家说他是美丽的鸟中最美丽的一只鸟儿。紫丁香在他面前把枝条垂到水里去。太阳照得很温暖，很愉快。他扇动翅膀，伸直细长的颈项，从内心里发出一个快乐的声音：
“当我还是一只丑小鸭的时候，我做梦也没有想到会有这么的幸福！”

The Ugly Duckling
Once upon a time down on an old farm, lived a duck family, and Mother Duck had been sitting on a clutch of new eggs. One nice morning, the eggs hatched and out popped six chirpy ducklings. But one egg was bigger than the rest, and it didn't hatch. Mother Duck couldn't recall laying that seventh egg. How did it get there? TOCK! TOCK! The little prisoner was pecking inside his shell.

"Did I count the eggs wrongly?" Mother Duck wondered. But before she had time to think about it, the last egg finally hatched. A strange looking duckling with gray feathers that should have been yellow gazed at a worried mother. The ducklings grew quickly, but Mother Duck had a secret worry.

"I can't understand how this ugly duckling can be one of mine!" she said to herself, shaking her head as she looked at her last born. Well, the gray duckling certainly wasn't pretty, and since he ate far more than his brothers, he was outgrowing them. As the days went by, the poor ugly duckling became more and more unhappy. His brothers didn't want to play with him, he was so
clumsy, and all the farmyard folks simply laughed at him. He felt sad and lonely, while Mother Duck did her best to console him.

"Poor little ugly duckling!" she would say. "Why are you so different from the others?" And the ugly duckling felt worse than ever. He secretly wept at night. He felt nobody wanted him.

"Nobody loves me, they all tease me! Why am I different from my brothers?"

Then one day, at sunrise, he ran away from the farmyard. He stopped at a pond and began to question all the other birds. "Do you know of any ducklings with gray feathers like mine?" But everyone shook their heads in scorn.

"We don't know anyone as ugly as you." The ugly duckling did not lose heart, however, and kept on making inquiries. He went to another pond, where a pair of large geese gave him the same answer to his question. What's more, they warned him: "Don't stay here! Go away! It's dangerous. There are men with guns around here!" The duckling was sorry he had ever left the farmyard.

Then one day, his travels took him near an old countrywoman's cottage. Thinking he was a stray goose, she caught him.

"I'll put this in a hutch. I hope it's a female and lays plenty of eggs!" said the old woman, whose eyesight was poor. But the ugly duckling laid not a single egg. The hen kept frightening him.

"Just wait! If you don't lay eggs, the old woman will wring your neck and pop you into the pot!" And the cat chipped in: "Hee! Hee! I hope the woman cooks you, then I can gnaw at your bones!" The poor ugly duckling was so scared that he lost his appetite, though the old woman kept stuffing him with food and grumbling: "If you won't lay eggs, at least hurry up and get plump!"

"Oh, dear me!" moaned the now terrified duckling. "I'll die of fright first! And I did so hope someone would love me!"

Then one night, finding the hutch door ajar, he escaped. Once again he was all alone. He fled as far away as he could, and at dawn, he found himself in a thick bed of reeds. "If nobody wants me, I'll hid here forever." There was plenty a food, and the duckling began to feel a little happier, though he was lonely. One day at sunrise, he saw a flight of beautiful birds wing overhead. White, with long slender necks, yellow beaks and large wings, they were migrating south.

"If only I could look like them, just for a day!" said the duckling, admiringly. Winter came and the water in the reed bed froze. The poor duckling left home to seek food in the snow. He dropped exhausted to the ground, but a farmer found him and put him in his big jacket pocket.

"I'll take him home to my children. They'll look after him. Poor thing, he's frozen!" The duckling was showered with kindly care at the farmer's house. In this way, the ugly duckling was able to survive the bitterly cold winter.

However, by springtime, he had grown so big that the farmer decided: "I'll set him free by the pond!" That was when the duckling saw himself mirrored in the water.

"Goodness! How I've changed! I hardly recognize myself!" The flight of swans winged north again and glided on to the pond. When the duckling saw them, he realized he was one of their kind, and soon made friends.

"We're swans like you!" they said, warmly. "Where have you been hiding?"

"It's a long story," replied the young swan, still astounded. Now, he swam majestically with his fellow swans. One day, he heard children on the river bank exclaim: "Look at that young swan! He's the finest of them all!"

And he almost burst with happiness.
