The Ugly Duckling 《丑小鸭》
Once upon a time, there was a mother duck who hatched a clutch of eggs. When the eggs cracked open, all the ducklings were cute and fluffy except for one. This duckling was big, gray, and awkward-looking.
很久很久以前,有一只母鸭孵化了一窝鸭蛋。当鸭蛋破裂时,所有的小鸭子都是可爱而毛茸茸的,只有一只不同。这只小鸭子又大、又灰,看起来笨拙。
Because he looked different, the other ducklings teased and bullied him. Feeling lonely and rejected, the ugly duckling ran away from the farm in search of a place where he could belong.
因为长得与众不同,其他的小鸭子嘲笑和欺负他。感到孤独和被拒绝,丑小鸭离开了农场,寻找一个属于自己的地方。
He traveled far and wide, facing many challenges and hardships along the way. He endured harsh weather, escaped from predators, and struggled to find food and shelter.
他远走高飞,一路上面临着许多挑战和困难。他忍受着严酷的天气,逃离了捕食者,艰难地寻找食物和庇护所。
One day, as winter approached, the ugly duckling stumbled upon a serene pond where a flock of graceful swans lived. To his surprise, the other swans welcomed him with open wings and accepted him as one of their own.
一天,随着冬天的临近,丑小鸭发现了一个宁静的池塘,那里生活着一群优雅的天鹅。令他惊讶的是,其他的天鹅张开翅膀欢迎他,并把他当作自己人。
To his amazement, the ugly duckling saw his reflection in the water and realized that he had transformed into a beautiful swan. He had never been an ugly duckling—he was a swan all along.
令他惊讶的是,丑小鸭看到了自己在水中的倒影,意识到自己已经变成了一只美丽的天鹅。他从来都不是一只丑小鸭——他一直都是一只天鹅。
And so, the once-ugly duckling lived happily ever after, surrounded by friends who loved and accepted him for who he truly was.
于是,曾经的丑小鸭过上了幸福的生活,被那些爱他、接受他真实的朋友们包围着。
