请帮忙翻译篇文章

Patrick never did homework. "Too boring," he said. He played baseball and basketball and Nintendo instead. His teachers told him, "Patrick! Do your homework or you won't learn a thing." And it's true, sometimes he did feel like a ding-a-ling. But what could he do? He hated homework. Then on St. Patrick's Day his cat was playing with a little doll and he grabbed it away. To his surprise it wasn't a doll at all, but a man of the tiniest size. He had a little wool shirt with old fashioned britches and a high tall hat much like a witch's. He yelled, "Save me! Don't give me back to that cat. I'll grant you a wish, I promise you that." Patrick couldn't believe how lucky he was! Here was the answer to all of his problems. So he said, "Only if you do all my homework 'til the end of the semester, that's 35 days. If you do a good enough job, I could even get A's." The little man's face wrinkled like a dishcloth thrown in the hamper. He kicked his legs and doubled his fists and he grimaced and scowled and pursed his lips, "Oh, am I cursed! But I'll do it." And true to his word, that little elf began to do Patrick's homework. Except there was one glitch. The elf didn't always know what to do and he needed help. "Help me! Help me!" he'd say. And Patrick would have to help -- in whatever way. "I don't know this word," the elf squeeked while reading Patrick's homework. "Get me a dictionary. No, what's even better. Look up the word and sound it out by each letter." When it came to math, Patrick was out of luck. "What are times tables?" the elf shrieked. "We elves never need that. And addition and subtraction and division and fractions? Here, sit down beside me, you simply must guide me." Elves know nothing of human history, to them it's a mystery. So the little elf, already a shouter, just got louder "Go to the library, I need books. More and more books. And you can help me read them too." As a matter of fact every day in every way that little elf was a nag! Patrick was working harder than ever and was it a drag! He was staying up nights, had never felt so weary, was going to school with his eyes puffed and bleary. Finally the last day of school arrived and the elf was free to go. As for homework, there was no more, so he quietly and slyly slipped out the back door. Patrick got his A's; his classmates were amazed; his teachers smiled and were full of praise. And his parents? They wondered what had happened to Patrick. He was now the model kid. Cleaned his room, did his chores, was cheerful, never rude, like he had developed a whole new attitude. You see, in the end Patrick still thought he'd made that tiny man do all his homework. But I'll share a secret, just between you and me. It wasn't the elf; Patrick had done it himself!

帕特里克从来没有作业。“太无聊了,”他说。他打棒球,篮球和任天堂相反。他的老师告诉他,“帕特里克!做你的家庭作业,否则你就不会学到些东西。”这是真实的,有时候,他感觉像个笨蛋。
　　
　　但是他能做些什么呢?他讨厌家庭作业。
　　
　　然后在圣帕特里克节的斗争的猫在玩一只小娃娃,他抓住它。使他惊奇的是,这并不是一个洋娃娃,但一个人的最微小的大小。他有一个小毛线衫,老式britches和高顶高帽子很像巫师的。他喊道,“救救我!别跟我回到那只猫。我会给你一个愿望,我答应你。”
　　
　　帕特里克无法相信他是多么幸运啊!这里是答案,他所有的问题。他说:“如果你所做的一切都是我的作业,直到这学期结束时,那是35天内完成。如果你做的不够好,我还可以找工作了。”
　　
　　那个矮个男人在脸上的皱纹像抹布扔在篮子里。他踢了他的腿,翻了一番,他的样子,他的拳头和噘起嘴唇皱起了眉头,“哦,我诅咒!但是我会做的。”
　　
　　和信守诺言,那小精灵开始做作业,帕特里克。除了有故障。精灵们并不总是知道该做什么了,他需要帮助。“救救我!帮帮我吧!”他说。和帕特里克将不得不帮助——不论以何种方式。
　　
　　“我不知道,”这个词的精灵squeeked在读帕特里克的作业。“给我一本字典。没有,什么是更好的。查这个词和声音是由每个字母。”
　　
　　当它的数学,帕特里克很倒霉。“时间?”小精灵表尖叫起来。“我们精灵从不需要。与加法和减法,分裂和分数吗?在这里,坐我旁边,你必须引导我。”
　　
　　精灵们不知道人类历史中,对他们来说,这是一个谜。这么小的精灵,已shouter,刚响亮”去图书馆,我所需要的书。越来越多的书。你能帮我读过他们。”
　　
　　实际上每天在各方面都是一匹老马,小精灵!李旭东是比以往任何时候都更加努力工作,是一个拖动!他是熬夜的晚上,从未感到如此疲惫,上学的膨化、bleary闭着眼睛。
　　
　　最后这个学期的最后一天来到这,精灵是免费的。至于家庭作业,没有
　　
　　
　　没有,所以他悄悄地溜出去,神情闪烁地问道。
　　
　　一个是得到了他;派他的同学都惊奇;他的老师微笑着,充满了赞扬。和他的父母吗?他们想知道发生了什么事情,帕特里克。他现在是该模型的小孩。打扫自己的房间,他的杂务,性格开朗,从不粗鲁,就像他已经开发出一种全新的姿态。
　　
　　你看,最后还以为他要派人表示所有的家庭作业。但是我将分享一个秘密,只在你和我之间。这不是精灵,帕特里克刚做完这件事!
