The Little Prince
Once when I was six years old I saw a magnificent① picture in a book, [1]called True Stories from Nature, about the primeval② forest.It was a picture of a boa constrictor③ in the act of④ swallowing⑤ an animal.Here is a copy of the drawing.
①magnificent adj.宏伟的;壮丽的
②primeval adj.原始的,远古的
primeval forest 原始森林
③boa constrictor 蟒蛇
④in the act of 正在做……
⑤swallow v.吞下,咽下
In the book it said:“Boa constrictors swallow their prey⑥ whole, without chewing⑦ it.After that they are not able to move, and they sleep through the six months [2]that they need for digestion⑧.”
I pondered⑨ deeply, then, over the adventures of the jungle⑩.And after some work with a colored pencil I succeeded in making my first drawing.My Drawing Number One.It looked like this:
I showed my masterpiece⑪ to the grownups⑫, and asked them [3]whether the drawing frightened⑬ them.
⑥prey n.猎物
⑦chew v.咀嚼
⑧digestion n.消化(过程)
⑨ponder v.仔细考虑,深思
ponder over 仔细考虑
⑩jungle n.(热带)丛林
⑪masterpiece n.杰作
⑫grownup n.大人,成年人
⑬frighten v.使惊吓,使惊恐
[1]过去分词短语作后置定语,修饰a book。
[2]that引导定语从句,修饰先行词the six months,that在从句中作宾语。
[3]whether引导宾语从句,作ask的直接宾语。
But they answered:“Frighten? Why should anyone be frightened by a hat?”
My drawing was not a picture of a hat.It was a picture of a boa constrictor [4]digesting⑭ an elephant.But [5]since the grownups were not able to understand it, I made another drawing:I drew the inside of
⑭digest v.消化(食物)
the boa constrictor, [6]so that the grownups could see it clearly.[7]They always need to have things explained.My Drawing Number Two looked like this:
[4]动词ing短语作后置定语,修饰a boa constrictor。
[5]since引导原因状语从句。
[6]so that引导目的状语从句。
[7]本句中have things explained为“have+宾语+宾语补足语”结构,其中过去分词explained作宾语补足语。
The grownups' response, this time, was to advise me to lay aside⑮ my drawings of boa constrictors, whether from the inside or the outside, and devote myself instead to⑯ geography, history, arithmetic⑰ and grammar.[8]That is why, at the age of six, I gave up what might have been a magnificent career as a painter.I had been disheartened⑱ by the failure of my Drawing Number One and my Drawing Number Two.Grownups never understand anything by themselves⑲, and [9]it is tiresome⑳ for children to be always and forever explaining things to them.
⑮lay aside 把……搁置一边
⑯devote oneself to
致力于,献身于
⑰arithmetic n.算术
⑱disheartened adj.
沮丧的,灰心的

It is tiresome for sb.to do sth.
某人厌烦去做某事
[8]That is why...意为“那就是为什么……”,why引导表语从句;what引导宾语从句。
[9]本句中it作形式主语,动词不定式短语to be always and forever explaining things to them作真正的主语。
So then I chose another profession㉑, and learned to pilot㉒ airplanes.I have flown a little over all parts of the world; and it is true that geography has been very useful to me.At a glance㉓ I can distinguish㉔ China from Arizona.If one gets lost in the night, such knowledge is valuable.
㉑profession n.职业,行业
㉒pilot v.驾驶(飞机);领航(船只)
㉓at a glance 一瞥, 看一眼
㉔distinguish v.区分,辨别
distinguish...from...区分……和……
In the course of this life, I have had a great many encounters㉕ with a great many people [10]who have been concerned with㉖ matters of consequence㉗.I have lived a great deal among grownups.I have seen them intimately㉘, close at hand㉙.And that hasn't much improved my opinion of them.
[11]Whenever I met one of them who seemed to me at all clearsighted, I tried the experiment of showing him my Drawing Number One, which I have always kept. I
㉕encounter n.相遇;邂逅
㉖be concerned with 关心;与……有关
㉗consequence n.后果
㉘intimately adv.亲密地,密切地
㉙close at hand 在附近,近在咫尺
would try to find out, so, if this was a person of true understanding.But, [12]whoever it was, he, or she, would always say:
“That is a hat.”
[10]who引导定语从句,修饰先行词a great many people。
[11]本句为主从复合句。其中Whenever引导让步状语从句;who引导定语从句,修饰代词them;which引导非限制性定语从句,修饰先行词Drawing Number One。
[12]whoever引导让步状语从句。
Then I would never talk to that person about boa constrictors, or primeval forests, or stars.I would bring myself down to his level.I would talk to him about bridge, and golf㉚, and politics㉛, and neckties㉜.And the grownup would be greatly pleased to㉝ have met such a sensible㉞ man.
(Excerpt from The Little Prince by Antoine de SaintExupéry)
㉚golf n.高尔夫球运动
㉛politics n.政治
㉜necktie n.领带
㉝be pleased to do sth.很高兴做某事
㉞sensible adj.明智的,理智的
小王子
我六岁的时候在一本书里看到了一张非常震撼的图。书的名字是《大自然的真实故事》,讲的是原始森林。那张图片上有一条蟒蛇正在吞掉一只动物。这是那张图的摹本:
书上写着:“蟒蛇把猎物整个吞下,完全不咀嚼。在这之后,它们就动不了了,它们在六个月的睡眠中消化食物。”
那个时候,我深深地思考着原始丛林里的奇遇。我用一支彩色铅笔,成功画出了我的第一幅画作。我的“一号画作”是这样的:
我把我的杰作给大人看,问他们有没有被我的画吓到。
但他们回答说:“吓到?为什么有人会被一顶帽子吓到?”
我画的不是帽子,而是一条正在消化一头大象的蟒蛇。但由于大人们没有看懂,我又画了一幅:我画出了蟒蛇身体的内部,这样大人就能看清楚了。所有事情都非要你跟他们解释清楚他们才能懂。我的“二号画作”是这样的:
这次,大人的回答是建议我把不管是蟒蛇内部还是外部的画都放到一边,然后转而专心学习地理、历史、算术和语法。那就是为什么在我六岁的时候,我放弃了可能会十分辉煌的画家职业道路。“一号画作”和“二号画作”的失败使我心灰意冷。大人从来没法自己弄懂任何事情,小孩永远要给他们解释是很辛苦的。
所以后来我选了另一个职业,我开始学习驾驶飞机。世界上每个地方我差不多都去过;地理对我确实很有用。我一眼就能分辨中国和亚利桑那州。如果晚上迷路了,这样的知识很有价值。
在生命历程中,我多次遇到过很多关心大事的人。我在大人之中生活了很久。我密切地观察过他们,近在咫尺地看过。然而我对他们的看法还是没有改观。
每一次我遇到一个看上去头脑完全清楚的大人,我都会给他看我一直带着的“一号画作”,想看看这个人是不是能真正地理解。但是,不论这个人是谁,他(她)总是会说:
“那是顶帽子。”
然后我就不再跟那个人聊任何有关蟒蛇、原始森林或是星星的事情了。我就会把自己降低到他的层次,跟他聊桥梁、高尔夫、政治、领带。而这个大人就会很高兴能遇到这样一个明智的人。
(节选自安托万·德·圣埃克苏佩里的《小王子》)

Caring 17yearold, Lauren Schroeder was inspired to help bring healthy food to needy families in her community.Volunteering at a food shelter when she was just 14, and tasked with helping fill boxes for households in need with packaged food, this Iowa teen felt that something was missing from the donated items: fresh vegetables.
This kindhearted teen then told her parents about her desire to start a garden on part of their family farm in Dixon, Iowa, in order to supply local families in need with fresh produce.
The work involved in realizing Lauren's plan was not a walk in the park.While proud of her daughter's idea and eager to support her project, Katie Schroeder, her mother, admitted to some concern about the workload, “How much work is this going to be?”
This was one determined young changemaker, however! Lauren researched plants online, checking which species needed more shade, how much water was required, and the best times to harvest each crop.More importantly, Lauren didn't shy away from hard work.During Iowa's hot and dry summers, she had to water her crops by hand for around two to three hours daily.She also checked daily for weeds and bent down to pick her green bean crop, the most challenging vegetable to harvest in her opinion.
With help from her family, she planted half an acre (英亩) of land, with 15 varieties of vegetables in 2022, harvesting her first crops, totaling 40 pounds.The eight initial beneficiaries included food banks, a nursing home, and a soup kitchen.In the past two years, this admirable high school junior has donated more than 7,000 pounds of homegrown produce, with an estimated value of $15,000.
Explaining her motivation to local media, Lauren says, “I wanted to have something that would impact people.I want to impact community members.Many people help you out, but it makes more difference when you help others out.That's what makes me happiest.”
