LESSON 16 The wasp and the bee

第十六課 黃蜂和蜜蜂

A wasp met a bee that was just buzzing by,

一只黃蜂遇見了一只嗡嗡作響的蜜蜂,

And he said, Little cousin, can you tell me why

他問：小表妹，你能告訴我為什么

You are loved so much better by people than I?

人類愛你比愛我更多嗎？”

My back shines as bright and as yellow as gold,

我的背發(fā)光像黃金一樣又亮又黃，

And my shape is most elegant,too, to behold;

我的身材看起來也是最優(yōu)雅的；

Yet nobody likes me for that, I am told.—

但是我被告知沒人因為這些喜歡我。”——

Ah, cousin! said the bee, 'tis all very true;

呀，表哥！”蜜蜂說，“這些都對；

But if I were half as much mischief to do,

但如果我把盡可能多的惡作劇做了一半，

Indeed they would love me no better than you.

他們對我的愛真的不會比你多多少。

You have a fine shape, and a delicate wing;

你有好的身材，精美的翅膀；

They own you are handsome;but then there's one thing

他們承認你很英?。坏幸患?/p>

They cannot put up with and that is your sting.

他們不能忍受，那就是你的刺。

My coat is quite homely and plain, as you see,

就像你看到的，我的外表非常平凡、樸素，

Yet nobody ever is angry with me—

但沒人曾生過我的氣——

Because I'm a harmless and diligent bee.

因為我是一只無害的、勤勞的蜜蜂?！?/p>

From this little story let people beware;

這個小故事讓人們當(dāng)心；

Because, like the wasp, if ill-natured they are,

因為，就像黃蜂，如果他們心地不良，

They will never be loved, though ever so fair.

盡管非常美麗，他們也不會受人喜愛。

QUESTIONS

問題

What did the wasp ask the bee? Why did he think people should love him? What did the bee say people could not put up with? What kind of coat had the bee? Why was nobody ever angry with her? Ill-natured people will…? though they are…?

黃蜂問了蜜蜂什么？為什么他認為人們應(yīng)該喜愛他？蜜蜂說人們不能忍受什么？蜜蜂有怎樣的外表？為什么人們從來沒有生過她的氣？心地不良的人會怎樣？盡管他們怎樣？
