点评:A mouse took a stroll through the deep dark wood.
A fox saw the mouse, and the mouse looked good.
"Where are you going to, little brown mouse?
Come and have lunch in my underground house."
"It's terribly kind of you, Fox, but no –
I'm going to have lunch with a gruffalo."
"A gruffalo? What's a gruffalo?"
"A gruffalo! Why, didn't you know?
He has terrible tusks, and terrible claws,
And terrible teeth in his terrible jaws."
"Where are you meeting him?"
"Here, by these rocks,
And his favourite food is roasted fox."
"Roasted fox! I'm off!" Fox said.
"Goodbye, little mouse," and away he sped.
"Silly old Fox! Doesn't he know,
There's no such thing as a gruffalo?"
On went the mouse through the deep dark wood.
An owl saw the mouse, and the mouse looked good.
"Where are you going to, little brown mouse?
Come and have tea in my treetop house."
"It's terribly kind of you, Owl, but no –
I'm going to have tea with a gruffalo."
"A gruffalo? What's a gruffalo?"
"A gruffalo! Why, didn't you know?
He has knobbly knees, and turned-out toes,
And a poisonous wart at the end of his nose."
"Where are you meeting him?"
"Here, by this stream,
And his favourite food is owl ice cream."
"Owl ice cream! Toowhit toowhoo!"
"Goodbye, little mouse," and away Owl flew.
"Silly old Owl! Doesn't he know,
There's no such thing as a gruffalo?"
On went the mouse through the deep dark wood.
A snake saw the mouse, and the mouse looked good.
"Where are you going to, little brown mouse?
Come for a feast in my logpile house."
"It's terribly kind of you, Snake, but no –
I'm having a feast with a gruffalo."
"A gruffalo? What's a gruffalo?"
"A gruffalo! Why, didn't you know?
His eyes are orange, his tongue is black,
He has purple prickles all over his back."
"Where are you meeting him?"
"Here, by this lake,
And his favourite food is scrambled snake."
"Scrambled snake! It's time I hid!"
"Goodbye, little mouse," and away Snake slid.
"Silly old snake! Doesn't he know,
There's no such thing as a gruffal...?"
...OH!"
But who is this creature with terrible claws
And terrible teeth in his terrible jaws?
He has knobbly knees, and turned-out toes,
And a poisonous wart at the end of his nose.
His eyes are orange, his tongue is black,
He has purple prickles all over his back.
"Oh help! Oh no!
It's a gruffalo!"
"My favourite food!" the Gruffalo said.
"You'll taste good on a slice of bread!"
"Good?" said the mouse. "Don't call me good!
I'm the scariest creature in this wood.
Just walk behind me and soon you'll see,
Everyone is afraid of me."
"All right," said the Gruffalo, bursting with laughter.
"You go ahead and I'll follow after."
They walked and walked till the Gruffalo said,
"I hear a hiss in the leaves ahead."
"It's Snake," said the mouse. "Why, Snake, hello!"
Snake took one look at the Gruffalo.
"Oh crumbs!" he said, "Goodbye, little mouse!"
And off he slid to his logpile house.
"You see?" said the mouse. "I told you so."
"Amazing!" said the Gruffalo.
They walked some more till the Gruffalo said,
"I hear a hoot in the trees ahead."
"It's Owl," said the mouse. "Why, Owl, hello!"
Owl took one look at the Gruffalo.
"Oh dear!" he said, "Goodbye, little mouse!"
And off he flew to his treetop house.
"You see?" said the mouse. "I told you so."
"Astounding!" said the Gruffalo.
They walked some more till the Gruffalo said,
"I can hear feet on the path ahead."
"It's Fox," said the mouse. "Why, Fox, hello!"
Fox took one look at the Gruffalo.
"Oh help!" he said, "Goodbye, little mouse!"
And off he ran to his underground house.
"Well, Gruffalo," said the mouse. "You see?
Everyone is afraid of me!
But now my tummy's beginning to rumble.
My favourite food is – gruffalo crumble!"
"Gruffalo crumble!" the Gruffalo said,
And quick as the wind he turned and fled.
All was quiet in the deep dark wood.
The mouse found a nut and the nut was good.
翻译:一只老鼠在幽暗的树林里漫步。
一只狐狸看到了老鼠,老鼠看起来很好。
“你要去哪里,小棕鼠?
来我的地下房子吃午饭吧。”
“你真是太好了,福克斯,但是不——
我要和一只咕噜牛一起吃午饭。”
“咕噜牛?什么是咕噜牛?”
“一只咕噜牛!怎么,你不知道吗?
他有可怕的獠牙和可怕的爪子,
他可怕的下巴里还有可怕的牙齿。”
“你在哪里遇见他?”
“在这里,在这些岩石旁边,
他最喜欢的食物是烤狐狸。”
“烤狐狸!我走了!”狐狸说道。
“再见,小老鼠”,他飞快地走了。
“愚蠢的老狐狸!他难道不知道吗?
没有咕噜牛这种东西吗?”
老鼠继续穿过幽暗的树林。
一只猫头鹰看到了老鼠,老鼠看起来不错。
“你要去哪里,小棕鼠?
来我的树顶小屋喝茶吧。”
“你真是太好了,猫头鹰,但是不——
我要和咕噜牛一起喝茶。”
“咕噜牛?什么是咕噜牛?”
“一只咕噜牛!怎么,你不知道吗?
他的膝盖突出,脚趾外翻,
他鼻尖上还有一个毒疣。”
“你在哪里遇见他?”
“在这里,在这条小溪边,
他最喜欢的食物是猫头鹰冰淇淋。”
“猫头鹰冰淇淋!嘟嘟嘟嘟!”
“再见,小老鼠。”猫头鹰飞走了。
“愚蠢的老猫头鹰!他难道不知道吗?
没有咕噜牛这种东西吗?”
老鼠继续穿过幽暗的树林。
一条蛇看见了老鼠,老鼠看起来不错。
“你要去哪里,小棕鼠?
来我的木堆屋里吃顿饭吧。”
“你真是太好了,Snake,但是不——
我正在和一只咕噜牛一起享用一顿盛宴。”
“咕噜牛?什么是咕噜牛?”
“一只咕噜牛!怎么,你不知道吗?
他的眼睛是橙色的,他的舌头是黑色的,
他的背上长满了紫色的刺。”
“你在哪里遇见他?”
“在这里,在这个湖边,
他最喜欢的食物是炒蛇。”
“炒蛇!我该躲了!”
“再见,小老鼠。”蛇蛇就溜走了。
“愚蠢的老蛇!他难道不知道吗?
没有粗暴的东西吗……?”
...哦!”
但这个长着可怕爪子的生物是谁
他那可怕的下巴里还有可怕的牙齿吗?
他的膝盖突出,脚趾外翻,
鼻尖上还有一个毒疣。
他的眼睛是橙色的,他的舌头是黑色的,
他的背上长满了紫色的刺。
“哦救命啊!哦不!
这是一只咕噜牛!”
“我最喜爱的食物!”咕噜牛说道。
“吃一片面包,味道会很好!”
“好的?”老鼠说。 “别说我好!
我是这片树林里最可怕的生物。
只要走在我身后,很快你就会看到,
每个人都害怕我。”
“好吧,”咕噜牛大笑起来。
“你先走,我跟在后面。”
他们走呀走,直到咕噜牛说:
“我听到前面树叶发出嘶嘶声。”
“是蛇,”老鼠说。 “怎么了,蛇,你好!”
Snake看了一眼咕噜牛。
“噢,碎屑!”他说:“再见,小老鼠!”
然后他就溜到了他的木堆房子里。
“你看?”老鼠说。 “我已经告诉过你了。”
“惊人的!”咕噜牛说。
他们又走了一段路,直到咕噜牛说:
“我听到前面的树林里有叫声。”
“是猫头鹰,”老鼠说。 “哎呀,猫头鹰,你好!”
猫头鹰看了一眼咕噜牛。
“哦亲爱的!”他说:“再见,小老鼠!”
然后他飞向他的树顶小屋。
“你看?”老鼠说。 “我已经告诉过你了。”
“惊人!”咕噜牛说。
他们又走了一段路,直到咕噜牛说:
“我能听到前面路上的脚步声。”
“是狐狸,”老鼠说。 “怎么了,狐狸,你好!”
狐狸看了一眼咕噜牛。
“噢,救命啊!”他说:“再见,小老鼠!”
然后他跑向他的地下房子。
“好吧,咕噜牛,”老鼠说。 “你看?
大家都怕我!
但现在我的肚子开始咕咕叫了。
我最喜欢的食物是——咕噜牛碎!”
“咕噜牛崩溃了!”咕噜牛说,
他如风般迅速转身逃跑。
幽暗的树林里一切都很安静。
老鼠发现了一颗坚果,而且坚果是好的。
