The Young Thief and His Mother

Long ago, there were a mother and a son living in a house. She worked hard everyday, but they were always poor.

One day, her son stole his friend's bag. "Mom, what do you think of this bag?" His mother praised her son rather than scolding him. "It looks great!"

The next time, he stole an overcoat. She praised him again when he stole it.

A few years later, he grew up to be a young man. He stole jewelry and brought them to his mother. "How beautiful!" This time, she did not scold her son again.

Then, because he was elated by his mother, he started to steal more expensive things. One day, the police caught him. Before putting him in jail, he begged the police to meet his mother. They took him to his mother.

As soon as he saw his mother, he bit her earlobe. "Ouch! What's the matter with you?" She finally scolded him. Her son answered. "If you had given me a scolding like that when I stole the first bag, I could not have become a thief."

She collapsed as she looked at her son heading to prison. "If I only could turn back time, I would scold him severely." She regretted that she always praised him, whatever he did.

小偷和他的年轻妈妈

很久以前，有一个母亲和儿子住在一所房子。她每天都努力工作，但他们始终贫困。

有一天，她的儿子偷了他朋友的袋子。 “妈，你怎么看这个包想的?”他的母亲受表扬而不是骂他，她的儿子。 “这看起来很棒!”

下一次，他偷了一件大衣。她又表扬了他，当他偷走了。

几年后，他成长为一名年轻男子。他偷了珠宝，交给他母亲。 “真漂亮!”这一次，她并没有骂她的儿子了。

然后，因为他是由他的母亲高兴了，他开始偷更昂贵的东西。有一天，警察抓到他。他将在监狱前，他恳求警察，以满足他的母亲。他们把他交给他母亲。

当他看到他的母亲，他咬了她耳垂。 “哎哟!怎么回事呀?”她终于骂他。她的儿子回答说。 “如果你给了我这样的时候我偷了第一袋，我就不会成为一个小偷骂。”

她倒在她的儿子，她看着前往监狱。 “如果真的可以时光倒流，我会严厉责骂他。”她感到遗憾的是她总是称赞他，无论他做到了。

The Thirsty Pigeon口渴的鸽子

A PIGEON, oppressed by excessive thirst, saw a goblet of water painted on a signboard. Not supposing it to be only a picture, she flew towards it with a loud whir and unwittingly dashed against the signboard, jarring herself terribly. Having broken her wings by the blow, she fell to the ground, and was caught by one of the bystanders.

Zeal should not outrun discretion.

有只鸽子口渴得很难受，看见画板上画着一个水瓶，以为是真的。他立刻呼呼地猛飞过 去，不料一头碰撞在画板上，折断了翅膀，摔在地上，被人轻易地捉住了。

这是说，有些人想急于得到所需的东西，一时冲动，草率从事，就会身遭不幸。

My First Sleepover

Last fall, I had my first sleepover.
I slept over at my friend Steve’s house.
It was so much fun!
“Jim, here is your sleeping bag. Have fun!”
“See you tomorrow, Mom.”
“Hi, Jim! Let’s ride on our rollerblades.”
“OK, Steve! Let’s ride on the sidewalk.”
“Hey! Watch me turn around!”
“Yeah! Watch me jump!”
Later, Steve’s mom called us into the house.
“Come in! Time to eat pizza!”
“This is really yummy!”
After we ate pizza, we played the computer game, too.
“Come on! Come on!”
“Now, it is time to sleep. Let me turn off the lights.
Don’t stay up and talk. You will be tired tomorrow.
Good night!”
“Good night!”
But we couldn’t sleep. We giggled! And giggled!
And giggled, again!
“Shh! This time, go to sleep! Good night!”
“OK. Good night!”
We felt very tired! But suddenly, we heard a strange
sound by the closet! “What was that?”
We were scared.
We heard the sound, again!
“Ooh!”
“There might be a monster in the closet!”
“Oh, no!”
My friend pulled his blanket over his head.
I pulled my blanket over my head, too.
“Did you hear that sound, again?”
“I’m scared! I want my mommy!”
He did not want to look! But soon, it was quiet.
So, I peeked out from under the covers.
“Guess what?
It is just your guinea pig!”
It got out of its cage.
We both laughed!
But soon, we both snored!!
The next morning, my mom came to pick me up.
“Was it fun?” ”Terrific! Mom, can I invite Steve to sleep
over at my house, next weekend?”
“Yes, you can.” “Thank you, Mom.”

我的第一次外宿

去年秋天，我有了第一次外宿。
我夜宿在我的朋友史蒂夫的家。
非常好玩！
“吉姆，给你睡袋。过得开心！”
“明天见，妈妈。”
“嗨，吉姆！让我们滑我们的单排溜冰鞋。”
“好的，史蒂夫！让我们在人行道上滑。”
“嘿！看我转圈！”
“呀！看我跳跃！”
后来，史蒂夫的妈妈叫我们进房间。
“进来！到了吃匹萨饼的时间了！”
“这个真的很好吃！”
在我们吃了匹萨以后，我们也玩了电脑游戏。
“冲啊！冲啊！”
“现在，到时间睡觉了。让我关上灯。”
不要起来和谈话。否则你们明天会疲倦的。
晚安！”
“晚安！”
但是我们睡不着。我们咯咯笑！咯咯笑！
咯咯笑！
“嘘！是时间睡觉了！晚安！”
“好的。晚安！”
我们感到很累！但是忽然，我们听到壁柜附近有
奇怪的声音。“那是什么？”
我们害怕了。
我们再次听到这个声音！
“哦！”
“也许有一只妖怪在壁柜里面！”
“哦， 不！”
我的朋友把毛毯拉过他的头。
我也把我的毛毯拉过我的头。
“你又听到那个声音了么？”
”我害怕了！我要我的妈妈！”
他不想去看！但是很快，安静了。
于是，我从毯子下面往外偷偷看。
“猜是什么？
它只是你的豚鼠！”
它从它的笼子跑出来了。
我们都笑了！
但是很快，我们都打鼾了！
第二天早上，我的妈妈来接我。
“有趣么？”“好极了！妈妈，我能邀请
史蒂夫下个周末在我的房子夜宿么？”
“好的，你可以。”“谢谢你，妈妈”
