花坛的秘密(1) 从前有位英国王子叫亨利。亨利王子喜欢学习语言，但他的脸上从来没有笑容。他的父亲即国王非常爱他，尽力用所有可能的方法让他快乐。 国王给这个男孩一匹小马(small horse)，这样他乐意时就可以骑马。国王还让人给王子造了一艘小船(The King also had a boat made for the Prince)，这样他可以在湖上(on the lake)航行。 然而（yet）年轻的王子还是不快乐。有一天国王会见(interview) 一位亚瑟爵士。亨利王子也在那里，一副不开心的样子，和平时一样(as usual)。 亚瑟爵士转向(turn to)国王，说，“我有一个方法(method)可以让亨利王子快乐，但您必须送他去乡下(countryside)。”起初(at first)，国外拒绝了，但亚瑟爵士坚持(insist)带王子去乡下，最后，国王同意了。 五十五. The Flower-bed's Secret (2) Prince Henry and Sir Arthur went to Sir Arthur's house. His big yard was divided into two parts-inside yard and outside yard, and the outside yard was a big garden with a flowerbed. Sir Arthur cancelled all his activities and stayed with the Prince at home. He told Henry, “Do you know my flowerbed can talk, and it has a secret.”The prince thought it very strange. Sir Arthur went on, “it tells the secret only to those who watch it every day. If you learn the secret, you will be happy every day in the year.”? Prince Henry looked, but there was no flower, not even a leaf upon it. Then he circled the flower-bed every day. Even when a storm came，he didn't go inside, so he caught a cold and coughed badly. Many days passed. The flowerbed was wet, and the warm sun shone upon it. At last, one fine morning, he saw tiny plants coming up. Day after day he saw that these plants made lines, and that the lines formed some letters. He thought about the spelling and tried to translate them into his own language. At last, he got it: DO SOME GOOD TO SOMEONE EVERY DAY. 【汉语翻译】 花坛的秘密(2) (责任编辑：admin) |
