The Story--故事
Once, long ago in a land far away, there lived four little characters who ran through a Maze looking for cheese to nourish them and make them happy.
曾经，很久以前，在一个遥远的土地上，住着四个小人物，他们在迷宫穿来穿去，寻找奶酪来滋养它们和让它们快乐。
Two were mice, named "Sniff" and "Scurry" and two were Littlepeople - beings who were as small as mice but who looked and acted a lot like people today. Their names were "Hem" and "Haw".
有两只是老鼠，名字叫“嗅嗅”和“匆匆”；有两个是小人——它们跟老鼠一样小但是看上去和动作上都跟今天的人很像。他们的名字是“哼哼”和“唧唧”。
Due to their small size, it would be easy not to notice what the four of them were doing. But if you looked closely enough, you could discover the most amazing things!
由于它们体型很小，很难注意到它们四个正在做什么。但是，如果你看得足够仔细的话，你会发现令人震惊的事情。
Every day the mice and the Littlepeople spent time in the Maze looking for their own special cheese.
每天，老鼠和小人都在迷宫里花费时间去寻找它们自己独特的奶酪。
The mice, Sniff and Scurry, possessing simple brains and good instincts, searched for the hard nibbling cheese they liked, as mice often do.
两只老鼠，嗅嗅和匆匆拥有简单的大脑和良好的本能，寻找那些它们喜欢的难咬的奶酪，就像是老鼠经常做的那样。
The two Littlepeople, Hem and Haw, used their complex brains, filled with many beliefs and emotions, to search for a very different kind of Cheese - with a capital C - which they believed would make them feel happy and successful.
两个小人，哼哼和唧唧用他们复杂的，装满信仰和情感的大脑，去寻找一种非常不同的奶酪——带有大写的字母C——他们相信这可以使他们感到幸福和有成就感。
