In the forest, there is a fast rabbit. He likes to race other animals. He always wins. "I am very fast," he says. "I can win any race." One day, the rabbit sees a turtle. "You are so slow. I am faster than you," he says. "Do you want to race me?" "Yes," says the turtle. "Ha, ha. It will be easy to win," laughs the rabbit. "You will lose. Your legs are too short." "Tomorrow we will have a race," says the rabbit. All of the animals are excited. They want to see the race. "The turtle will lose. He is too slow," they all say. The turtle gets up early in the morning. The race is today. There are many animals at the race. The turtle walks to the starting line. All the animals laugh at him. The rabbit is waiting for the turtle."Are you ready "asks rabbit. "I'm ready" says the turtle. "I will win," laughs the rabbit. "I will try my best," says the turtle. The race begins. All of the other animals are excited. "Go, go, go," they say. The rabbit runs very quickly. The turtle walks slowly. The rabbit turns around. The turtle is walking so slowly. "Ha, ha, you will never win this race," the rabbit says. The turtle is slower than the rabbit. The rabbit laughs at the turtle. Then the rabbit sees a tree. "The turtle is so slow. I will take a nap. I can still win the race," says the rabbit. He goes to sleep under the tree. The turtle keeps walking. He is tired and his legs hurt. The rabbit is sleeping under a tree. The turtle quietly walks past the rabbit. He is very quiet because he doesn't want to wake up the rabbit. "I can do it! I can do it!" says the turtle. "My legs are short and I am slow, but I can win this race." The turtle can see the finish line. "Yeah! You are the best," say the other animals. "You are great!" The turtle is happy. The rabbit feels sad. All of the animals now laugh at the rabbit. "Ha, ha, ha," they laugh. "You say you are the best, but the slow turtle is the winner," they say. "He is the best! The turtle is great!" "I am slow. I have short legs. I am not fast, but I did it!" says the turtle. The rabbit is quiet. He slowly walks home. |
森林裡有一隻跑得很快的兔子。他喜歡跟其他動物賽跑。每一次他都贏。 “我的速度很快,”他說。”任何比賽我都會贏。” 有一天,兔子看到了烏龜。”你太慢了。我比你快,”他說。”你要不要跟我賽跑呀?” “好呀,”烏龜說。”哈,哈。要贏太容易了,”兔子笑道。”你會輸的。你的腿太短了。” “明天我們就來比賽,”兔子說。所有的動物都很興奮。他們想要觀賞這場比賽。”烏龜會輸。他太慢了,”他們大家都說。 烏龜一大早就起床了。今天是比賽的日子。比賽地點有好多動物。烏龜走到起跑線。所有的動物都在取笑烏龜。 兔子在等候烏龜,“你準備好了嗎?”兔子問,“準備好了”烏龜說。“我贏定了,”兔子笑道。”我會盡全力,”烏龜說。 比賽開始了,所有其他的動物都很興奮。”加油!加油!加油!”他們說。兔子跑得很快。烏龜則走得很慢。 兔子轉過身來。烏龜正慢慢地走。”哈,哈,這場比賽你絕對贏不了,”兔子說。烏龜比兔子慢多了,兔子嘲笑烏龜。 這時兔子看到一棵樹。”烏龜太慢了。我要小睡片刻。我仍能贏得這場比賽,”兔子說。他就在樹下呼呼大睡。 烏龜繼續走。他很累,四條腿都很疼痛。兔子正在一棵樹下睡覺。烏龜靜悄悄地經過兔子的身邊。他很安靜,因為他不想吵醒兔子。 “我會成功!我會成功!”烏龜說。”我腿短,動作又慢,但是這場比賽我會贏。”烏龜可以看到終線了。 突然間兔子醒了。烏龜已經走到好遠的地方。”他要贏了!”他說。兔子跑呀跑的,可是太遲了。烏龜贏了比賽。 “哇!你最棒,”其他動物說。”你真行!”烏龜很快樂。兔子很難過。現在所有動物都在嘲笑兔子。 “哈,哈,哈,”他們笑道。”你說你最棒,可是慢吞吞的烏龜卻是贏家,”他們說。”他才是最棒的!烏龜了不起!” “我的動作慢,腿又短。我跑不快,可是我卻成功了!”烏龜說。兔子一言不發,慢慢地走回家。
