一只能够随着周围环境变化颜色的变色龙,
厌恶了每天只会伸舌头捕苍蝇的生活。
一天,它看到了一个动物园,
从此变得自惭形秽,
它希望拥有各种动物的特长,
于是它许愿,
那么它的这些愿望都实现了吗?
一起去看一看吧!
今日句型
It moved onto a brown tree and turned brownish.
它爬到褐色的树干上就变成了褐色。
I wish I could be big and white like a polar bear.
我要是能像北极熊又大又白就好了。
But the chameleon was very mixed-up.
It was a little of this and it was a little of that.
And it couldn't catch the fly.
槽糕的是,它只是拼拼凑凑起来的,
有点像这个,又有点像那个,
它已经捉不到苍蝇了。
On a shiny green leaf sat a small green chameleon. You could hardly see it.
It moved onto a brown tree and turned brownish.
Then it rested on a red flower and turned reddish.
When the chameleon moved slowly across the yellow sand , it turned yellowish.
When it was cold and hungry , it turned gray and dull.
It sat still and waited. Only its eyes moved-up , down , sideways-until it spotted a fly.
Then the chameleon's long and sticky tongue shot out and caught the fly.
When it was warn and had something to eat , it turned sparkling green.
That was its life.
It was not very exciting.
But one day...
...the chameleon saw a zoo !
It had never seen so many beautiful animals.
The chameleon thought:
How small I am , how slow , how weak !
I wish I could be big and white like a polar bear.
And the chameleon's wish came true.
But was it happy?
No !
I wish I could be handsome like a flamingo.
I wish I could be smart like a fox.
I wish I could swim like a fish.
I wish I could swim like a fish.
I wish I could see things for away like a giraffe.
I wish I could hide in a shell like a turtle.
I wish I could be strong like an elephant.
I wish I could be funny like a seal.
I wish I could be like people.
Just then a fly flew by.
The chameleon was very hungry.
But the chameleon was very mixed-up.
It was a little of this and it was a little of that.
And it couldn't catch the fly.
I wish I could be myself.
The chameleon's wish came true.
And it caught the fly !
它的愿望都一一实现,拥有狐狸一样的聪明,大象一样的强壮等,可是,到头来它却变成了一个四不像的怪物,连最基本的捕捉苍蝇的能力都丧失了,后悔之余,它最终还是选择做回自己。
这个故事告诫小朋友们,盲目跟从,看似得到很多,其实是失去了自我,始终保持自己的本色,这样才会找到真正的快乐。
