Lesson 9 The Little Milk-maid 第九课 小小挤奶女工
Look at me, boys and girls. I am a little milkmaid. I am going home with my milk-pail and my stool. 男孩们,女孩们,看看我,我就是一个小小挤奶女工,我提着牛奶桶,拿着凳子,准备回家。
I have been milking the cow. You can see her on the grass in the field. 我刚才一直在挤牛奶。在那片草地上,你能看见那头奶牛。
The cow knows me. She never moves when I am milking her. 那头奶牛认识我。当我给她挤奶时,她一动不动。
Now my pail is quite full of nice sweet milk. 现在我的桶里装满了芬芳新鲜的牛奶。
Little baby is very fond of milk. When he can speak, I will teach him to say: 小宝贝很喜欢喝牛奶。当他能说话时,我会教他说:
Thank you, pretty cow, that made Nice rich milk to soak my bread, 谢谢你啊,漂亮的奶牛,你日日产出大量的鲜奶,
Every morn and every night,Fresh and warm, and sweet and white. 我用它来蘸食面包,它可真是新鲜温暖甜蜜又洁白。
