A brave pig 一只勇敢的猪

I lived in DC when I was young, and dad used1 to take us on weekend trips south into the Carolina, so that we could see what "real life" was like. He’d just drive along the road for a while, and then pull over at some farm and start talking to the people there.

Dad was chatting up a farmer’s wife once，when I discovered this pig...

It was a nice pig. But it only had three legs. The right back leg was wooden! Well, I was ascurious2 as could be, so I asked the farmer:"Excuse me, sir. Why does your pig have a wooden leg?"

"Well, boy. That is a courageous3 pig. The wife and me were asleep in the house one night, when that pig came running in and woke us up. The whole place was ablaze4. We just got out alive."

"And the pig got its leg burned up in the fire?"

"Nope. Pig got out just fine. Matter of fact, he even went back in and saved the kids."

"Then why does the pig have a wooden leg?"

"I told you, boy. That is a BRAVE pig! A heroic5 pig! That pig saved our lives!"

"Yes, sir. But why does he have a wooden leg!"

"Boy, a pig like that, you don’t eat all in one sitting!"

我小的时候生活在华盛顿。到了周末，爸爸常常带我们到南部的卡罗莱纳州去玩。正是在那里我们看到了什么是“真正的生活”。爸爸会沿路开一会儿车，然后把车停在路边，找农场里的人聊聊天。

正当爸爸和一个农妇聊天时，我发现了这只猪……

那只猪很漂亮，可只有三条腿，右后腿还是用木头做的!我对这点很好奇。于是就问那个农民：“先生，为什么你的猪有一只木头腿啊?”

“是这样的，孩子。这是一只勇敢的猪。有天晚上，我和妻子正在房里睡觉时，这只猪跑进来叫醒了我们，我们才知道房子着火了。我们立刻跑了出去，才保住了性命。”

“这只猪的腿是在那场火灾中烧坏的吗?”

“不是的，它完好无损地跑了出去。实际上，它甚至还跑了回去，把我们的孩子也救了出来。”

“那为何这只猪会有一只木头腿呢?”

“我已经告诉你了，孩子。那是只勇敢的猪!一只英勇的猪!它救了我们全家人的性命!”

“是的，先生。可是为何它有只木头腿呢?”

“孩子，像这样的猪，我们是不舍得一次就把它吃光的!”

A hasty retreat 快速逃命

After a week's absence, a mountain man staggered1 home, clothes torn, shoes worn thin. He was exhausted2.

"Where have you been?" asked his wife.

"I went out in the woods to check the still." Replied the mountain man, "and a giant bear stepped out in front of me. I took off running ahead of him and finally lost him. I never ran so fast in my life."

"But that was a week ago." Said the wife. "Where have you been since?"

The mountain man collapsed3 in a chair. "Walking back."

离开家一个星期后，那个登山人摇摇晃晃地回到了家，他的衣服也破了，鞋底也磨薄了，他本人更是疲惫不堪的样子。

“你到哪儿去了?”老婆问。

“那天我到森林里去检查有无无非法酿酒的地方，”登山人叙述着，“忽然一只大熊出现在我的面前，我拔腿就跑，熊就在后面追，好不容易才把它甩掉，我这辈子从来没有跑这么快。”

“可是那是一周前的事了，”他老婆说：“后来你到哪儿去了?”

登山人瘫在在椅子上说：“往回走啊!”

A surprise 大吃一惊

We had just moved into a new school district, when brother was invited to a surprise birthday party. He didn't want to go, however, because he couldn't recall ever meeting the birthday boy.

"Ridiculous!" said my mother. "If he didn't know you, his mother wouldn't have invited you." And with that she packed him off to have a good time.

When Dave came home, Mom wanted to know how it had gone.

"Well," he said glumly1, "We got there and everyone hid behind a couch. Then, when the boy came in, we all jumped up and yelled, 'SURPISE'. And he pointed2 straight at me and shouted, 'Who is he?'"

我们刚刚搬到一个新的学区，我哥哥就被邀请去参加一个惊喜生日聚会。他不想去，因为他无论如何也想不起曾见过那个过生日的男孩。

“莫名其妙!”妈妈说：“如果他不认识你，他妈妈是不会来要邀请你的。”说着，妈妈就把他送出了门。

大卫回到家后，妈妈很想知道聚会开得怎样。

“怎么说呢?”他无精打采地说：“我们到会后，大家都藏在一个沙发的后边，等到过生日的男孩一进屋，我们就跳起来喊：“给你一个惊喜哟!”这时，他朝直地指着我问：“他是谁?”
