求翻译,有好评!!! Long, long ago, there was a king. He
翻译:很久很久以前,有一个国王。他喜欢画画。他认为他的画很好,所以他喜欢把它们展示给人们看。人们不敢说国王的画不好,所以他们都说他的画很好。有一天,国王向一位艺术家展示了他的一些照片。他希望这位艺术家能把这些话说得很好。
但是这位艺术家说他的画太差了,他应该把它们放进火里。国王生他的气,把他关进了监狱。过了一段时间,国王的卫队把这位艺术家带回了宫殿。
国王对画家说。“如果你告诉我哪张照片好,我就放你走。”他又给他看了几张新照片,问他对它们有什么看法。看了一眼之后,艺术家立刻转向警卫说:“请带我回监狱。”
原文:Long, long ago, there was a king. He liked to draw pictures. He thought his pictures were good, so he liked to show them to people. People were afraid to say that the king's pictures were bad, so they all said that his pictures were very good.
One day, the king showed some of his bast pictures to an artist. He wanted the artist to speak well of these pictures. But the artist said his pictures were so bad that he should put them into the fire. The king got angry with him and put him to prison.
After some time, the king's guard brought the artist back to the palace. The king said to the artist. "I will set you free if you tell me which one of my pictures is good."
Again he showed him some of his new pictures and asked what he thought of them. After having a look at them, the artist at once turned to the guard and said,"Take me back to prison, please."
