中文故事

明智的老猫头鹰巴纳比 unanimously(一致地)审视着他被unanimously(一致地)决定的王国。所有动物都同意他是最好的领导者。今天,他感到有点somber(忧郁),不是因为有什么真正的问题,而是因为他花了一个上午在笔记本上画fictitious(虚构的)生物。他甚至画了一棵长着ornamental(装饰性的)果实的树,尝起来像阳光。他的朋友,一只名叫比阿特丽斯blunt(直率的)獾,摇摇摆摆地走过来。“你为什么愁眉苦脸的,巴纳比?”她问道。巴纳比叹了口气,“我只是在思考存在,比阿特丽斯。我们应该credence(信任)梦想,还是只信任我们能触及的东西?”从不深思熟虑的比阿特丽斯只是用鼻子推了推一片落叶。“这片叶子是真的,巴纳比。梦想很好,但现实养活我们。”巴纳比笑了,somber(忧郁)的情绪消散了。也许比阿特丽斯,以她blunt(直率的)方式,是对的。有些事情只是画着doodle(涂鸦)很有趣,即使它们不是真的。

英语故事

The wise old owl, Barnaby, surveyed his unanimously decided kingdom. All the animals agreed that he was the best leader. Today, he felt a bit somber, not because of any real problem, but because he had spent the morning drawing fictitious creatures in his notebook. He'd even drawn a tree with ornamental fruit that tasted like sunshine. His friend, a blunt badger named Beatrice, waddled up. "What's with the long face, Barnaby?" she asked. Barnaby sighed, "I'm just pondering existence, Beatrice. Do we give credence to dreams, or only to what we can touch?" Beatrice, never one for deep thoughts, simply nudged a fallen leaf with her nose. "This leaf is real, Barnaby. Dreams are nice, but reality feeds us." Barnaby chuckled, the somber mood lifting. Perhaps Beatrice, in her blunt way, was right. Some things were just fun to doodle about, even if they weren't real.
