Ann+Gadzikowski

Once there was a bluebird who liked to brag. He looked at the sky， he looked at his wings， and he smiled. 從前有一只自大的知更鳥(niǎo)，他看了看天空，看了看他自己的翅膀，然后他笑了。

“How fine I look！” thought the bluebird. “I am as blue as the sky！” “我看起來(lái)多漂亮啊?！敝B(niǎo)想道，“我像天空一樣藍(lán)。”

The bluebird flew high and low in the blue sky. 知更鳥(niǎo)在空中飛上飛下。

The bluebird saw a mouse. 知更鳥(niǎo)看到一只老鼠。

“Hello！” said the bluebird to the mouse. “It is a beautiful day， isn't it？” “你好。”知更鳥(niǎo)對(duì)老鼠說(shuō)?！敖裉焯鞖庹婧冒?，是嗎？”

“Yes， it is a beautiful day，” said the mouse. “是的，今天天氣很好?！崩鲜笳f(shuō)。

“The sky is a beautiful blue. I am blue， too.” “天空是美麗的藍(lán)色。我也是藍(lán)色的?！?/p>

said the bluebird. “I am beautiful， like the blue sky.” 知更鳥(niǎo)說(shuō)?！拔蚁袼{(lán)色的天空一樣美麗?！?/p>

“Oh，” sighed the mouse. “I am not blue. I am gray. I am not the color of the sky.” The bluebird laughed and flew away. “噢。”老鼠嘆氣道，“我不是藍(lán)色，我是灰色，我不是天空的顏色?！敝B(niǎo)笑著飛走了。

The bluebird saw a flamingo.知更鳥(niǎo)看到一只火烈鳥(niǎo)。

“Hello！” said the bluebird. “It is a beautiful day， isn't it？”“你好?！敝B(niǎo)說(shuō)?！敖裉焯鞖庹婧冒?，不是嗎？”

“Yes，” said the flamingo. “It is a fine and sunny day.”“是的?！被鹆银B(niǎo)說(shuō)?！斑@是個(gè)又好又晴朗的天?！?/p>

“Look at the beautiful blue sky，” said the bluebird. “I am blue， like the sky.” “看，藍(lán)色的天空?！敝B(niǎo)說(shuō)?！拔乙彩撬{(lán)色的，像天空一樣。”

“I am pink，” said the flamingo. “Blue is better than pink，” bragged the bluebird. “Blue is the color of the sky！” “我是粉色的，”火烈鳥(niǎo)說(shuō)?！八{(lán)色比粉色好看。”知更鳥(niǎo)自夸道。“藍(lán)色是天空的顏色！”

“Oh，” said the flamingo. “I am not the color of the sky.” The flamingo was angry. He flew away without saying good-bye. “噢。”火烈鳥(niǎo)說(shuō)?！拔也皇翘炜盏念伾??！被鹆银B(niǎo)生氣了，他沒(méi)有說(shuō)再見(jiàn)就飛走了。

The bluebird looked up. He saw a blackbird at the top of a tree. 知更鳥(niǎo)向上看。他看到了一只烏鴉在樹(shù)頂上。

“Hello！” said the bluebird. “It is a beautiful day， isn't it？” “你好?！敝B(niǎo)說(shuō)?！敖裉焯鞖庹婧冒?，不是嗎？”

“Yes， it is.” said the blackbird. “是的?！睘貘f說(shuō)。

“I am blue， like the sky，” said the bluebird. “我是藍(lán)色的，像天空一樣?！敝B(niǎo)說(shuō)。

“I am not blue，” said the blackbird. “I am black.” “我不是藍(lán)色的。”烏鴉說(shuō)。“我是黑色的?！?/p>

“Blue is better than black，” bragged the bluebird. “Blue is the color of the sky.” “藍(lán)色比黑色好看?！敝B(niǎo)自夸道。“藍(lán)色是天空的顏色?！?
