小之又小
Teeny-Tiny
从前,在一个极小极小的村庄里,有一座极小极小的房子,里面住着一位极小极小的妇人。有一天,这位极小极小的妇人戴上她极小极小的帽子,走出她极小极小的房子,去散了一会儿极小极小的步。
Once upon a time there was a teeny-tiny woman lived in a teeny-tiny house in a teeny-tiny village. Now, one day this teeny-tiny woman put on her teeny-tiny bonnet, and went out of her teeny-tiny house to take a teeny-tiny walk.
这位极小极小的妇人走了一小段极小极小的路,来到了一扇极小极小的大门前;于是这位极小极小的妇人推开极小极小的大门,走进了一座极小极小的教堂墓地。
And when this teeny-tiny woman had gone a teeny-tiny way she came to a teeny-tiny gate; so the teeny-tiny woman opened the teeny-tiny gate, and went into a teeny-tiny churchyard.
这位极小极小的妇人走进极小极小的教堂墓地后,在极小极小的坟墓上看到了一根极小极小的骨头。这位极小极小的妇人心里暗暗地想:“这根极小极小的骨头,正好可以给我做一碗极小极小的晚饭汤。”
And when this teeny-tiny woman had got into the teeny-tiny churchyard, she saw a teeny-tiny bone on a teeny-tiny grave, and the teeny-tiny woman said to her teeny-tiny self, “This teeny-tiny bone will make me some teeny-tiny soup for my teeny-tiny supper.”
于是,这位极小极小的妇人把这根极小极小的骨头放进她极小极小的口袋里,回到了她极小极小的家。
So the teeny-tiny woman put the teeny-tiny bone into her teeny-tiny pocket, and went home to her teeny-tiny house.
这位极小极小的妇人回到她极小极小的家里时,感到有一点点极小极小的累;于是她走上极小极小的楼梯,来到极小极小的床边,把那根极小极小的骨头放进了一个极小极小的壁橱里。
Now when the teeny-tiny woman got home to her teeny-tiny house she was a teeny-tiny bit tired; so she went up her teeny-tiny stairs to her teeny-tiny bed, and put the teeny-tiny bone into a teeny-tiny cupboard.
这位极小极小的妇人睡了极小极小的一会儿,就被极小极小的壁橱里传来的一个极小极小的声音吵醒了,那个声音说:
And when this teeny-tiny woman had been to sleep a teeny-tiny time, she was awakened by a teeny-tiny voice from the teeny-tiny cupboard, which said:
“把我的骨头还给我!”
“Give me my bone!”
这位极小极小的妇人感到极小极小的一阵害怕,就把她极小极小的脑袋藏在极小极小的被子下面,又睡着了。
And this teeny-tiny woman was a teeny-tiny frightened, so she hid her teeny-tiny head under the teeny-tiny clothes and went to sleep again.
她又睡了极小极小的一会儿,那个极小极小的声音又从极小极小的壁橱里传出来,而且稍微大了一点点:“把我的骨头还给我!”
And when she had been to sleep again a teeny-tiny time, the teeny-tiny voice again cried out from the teeny-tiny cupboard a teeny-tiny louder, “Give me my bone!”
这让这位极小极小的妇人感到更加害怕了一点点,于是她把极小极小的脑袋往极小极小的被子下面又藏深了一点点。
This made the teeny-tiny woman a teeny-tiny more frightened, so she hid her teeny-tiny head a teeny-tiny further under the teeny-tiny clothes.
这位极小极小的妇人又睡了极小极小的一会儿,极小极小的壁橱里那个极小极小的声音又稍微大声了一点点,说道:
And when the teeny-tiny woman had been to sleep again a teeny-tiny time, the teeny-tiny voice from the teeny-tiny cupboard said again a teeny-tiny louder,
“把我的骨头还给我!”
“Give me my bone!”
这位极小极小的妇人感到更加害怕了一点点,但她还是把她极小极小的脑袋从极小极小的被子里伸出来,用她最响亮的极小极小的声音喊道:“拿走吧!”
And this teeny-tiny woman was a teeny-tiny bit more frightened, but she put her teeny-tiny head out of the teeny-tiny clothes, and said in her loudest teeny-tiny voice, “TAKE IT!”
