亲爱的同学们，今天是赵校长英语小课堂坚持日更的第77天。
一天一个英语小知识，相信日积月累的力量。
今天，赵校长继续带来长期占据美国亚马逊畅销榜第一名的《Who Moved My Cheese?》的翻译之第6节：
"This is great," Hem said. "There's enough Cheese here to last us forever." The littlepeople felt happy and successful, and thought they were now secure.
“太好了！”哼哼说，“这里有这么多奶酪，足够我们享用一辈子。”小矮人们充满了幸福和成功感，觉得从此可以无忧无虑了。
It wasn't long before Hem and Haw regarded the Cheese they found at the Cheese Station C as their cheese. It was such a large store of Cheese that they eventually moved their homes to be closer to it, and built a social life around it.
不久，哼哼和唧唧就把在奶酪C站发现的奶酪，视为他们自己的。这是一个如此巨大的奶酪储备，以致于他们最终把家搬到了离它更近的地方，并且围绕它建立了社交生活。
To make themselves feel more at home, Hem and Haw decorated the walls with sayings and even drew pictures of Cheese around them which made them smile. One read: HAVING CHEESE MAKES YOU HAPPY.
为了让自己更有家的感觉，哼哼和唧唧用格言装饰了墙壁，甚至在墙上画了很多奶酪的图画，这让他们面露微笑。其中一个写道：拥有奶酪让你快乐。
Sometimes Hem and Haw would take their friends by to see their pile of Cheese at Cheese Station C, and point to it with pride, saying, "Pretty nice Cheese, huh?" Sometimes they shared it with their friends and sometimes they didn't.
有时，哼哼和唧唧会带朋友来参观奶酪C站里他们那成堆的奶酪，自豪地指着奶酪说：“多么美妙可口的奶酪呀，不是吗？”有时，他们与朋友们一起分享这些奶酪，有时则单独享用。
"We deserve this Cheese," Hem said. "We certainly had to work long and hard enough to find it." He picked up a nice fresh piece and ate it. Afterward, Hem fell asleep, as he often did.
“我们值得这些奶酪，”哼哼说道，“为了找到它们，我们必须得长时间地工作和足够地努力才行。”他拿起一块诱人的新鲜的奶酪，吃了起来。然后，像往常一样，他慢慢进入了梦乡。
Every night the littlepeople would waddle home, full of Cheese, and every morning they would confidently return for more. They went on for quite some time.
每天晚上，当肚子里装满了奶酪，小矮人们摇摇晃晃地走回家。第二天早上，他们又信心十足回来享用更多的奶酪。他们这样持续了相当长的一段时间。
After a while Hem's and Haw's confidence grew into arrogance of success. Soon they became so comfortable they didn't even notice what was happening.
一段时间后，哼哼和唧唧的自信变成了成功的自大。不久，他们变得如此自在，甚至没有注意到正在发生的一切。
