The Little Prince Day7
It took me a long time to learn where he came from. The little prince, who asked me so many questions, never seemed to hear the ones I asked him. It was from words dropped by chance that. Little by little ,everything was revealed to me.
我花了很长时间去弄明白他来自哪里。那个问了我这么多问题的小王子似乎从未听说过我问他的地方。一次偶然的对话，让一切渐渐的明了了起来。
The first time he saw my airplane for instance(I shall not draw my airplane: that would be much too complicated for me), he asked me:
比如他第一次见到我的飞机的时候（我没法画我的飞机：那对于我来说实在是太复杂了）
“What is that object?”
“那是什么东西？”
“That is not an object. It flies. It is an airplane. It is my airplane.”
“那不是个东西，它会飞。它是一架飞机。是我的飞机。”
And I was proud to have him learn that I could fly.
我非常骄傲的对他说我可以飞。
He cried out, then:
“What! You dropped down from sky?”
他惊叫道：
“什么！你是从天上掉下来的？”
“Yes,” I answered, modestly.
“是的，”我惭愧的回答到。
“Oh! That is funny!”
“哦！那太有趣了！”
Then the little prince broke into a lovely peal of laughter, which irritated me very much. I like my misfortunes to be taken seriously.
随后，小王子发出一阵清脆的笑声，那令我很气恼，我希望我的遭遇被认真对待。
