The Little Prince
Once when I was six years old I saw a magnificent① picture in a book，called True Stories from Nature，about the primeval② forest． It was a picture of a boa constrictor③ in the act of④ swallowing an animal． Here is a copy of the drawing．
In the book it said：“Boa constrictors swallow⑤ their prey⑥ whole，without chewing⑦ it． After that they are not able to move，and they sleep through⑧ the six months that they need for digestion⑨．”
I pondered⑩ deeply，then，over the adventures of the jungle． And after some work with a colored pencil I succeeded in making my first drawing． My Drawing Number One． It looked like this：
I showed my masterpiece to the grown ups，and asked them whether the drawing frightened them．
But they answered: “Frighten Why should anyone be frightened by a hat？”
My drawing was not a picture of a hat． It was a picture of a boa constrictor [1]digesting an elephant．[2]But since the grown ups were not able to understand it，I made another drawing：I drew the inside of the boa constrictor，so that the grown ups could see it clearly． They always need to [3]have things explained．My Drawing Number Two looked like this：
[1]此處為動詞 ing形式短語在句中作定語，修飾a boa constrictor。
[2]本句中since引導原因狀語從句，so that引導目的狀語從句。
[3]此處為“have sth． done”結構。have是使役動詞，意為“使……”。
The grown ups' response，this time，was to advise me to lay aside my drawings of boa constrictors，whether from the inside or the outside，and devote myself instead to geography，history，arithmetic and grammar． [4]That is why，at the age of six，I gave up what might have been a magnificent career as a painter． I had been disheartened by the failure of my Drawing Number One and my Drawing Number Two． Grown ups never understand anything by themselves，and [5] it is tiresome for children to be always and forever explaining things to them．
[4]本句是一個主從復合句。why在此引導表語從句，從句中包含what引導的賓語從句，what在賓語從句中作主語。
[5]此處為“it is＋adj．＋(for sb．) to do sth．”結構，it是形式主語，真正的主語是后面的不定式短語。
So then I chose another profession ， and learned to pilot airplanes． I have flown a little over all parts of the world; and it is true that geography has been very useful to me． At a glance I can distinguish China from Arizona． If one gets lost in the night，such knowledge is valuable．
　　In the course of this life，I have had a great many encounters with a great many people who have been concerned with matters of consequence ． I have lived a great deal among grown ups． I have seen them intimately ，[6]close at hand ．And that hasn't much improved my opinion of them．
[6]此處為副詞性短語，作狀語。
[7]Whenever I met one of them who seemed to me at all clear sighted ，I tried the experiment of showing him my Drawing Number One，which I have always kept． [8]I would try to find out，so，if this was a person of true understanding．But，[9]whoever it was，he，or she，would always say：
“That is a hat．”
[7]本句是一個主從復合句。whenever在此引導時間狀語從句，從句中包含who引導的限制性定語從句，先行詞是them；主句中包含which引導的非限制性定語從句，先行詞為my Drawing Number One。
[8]本句是一個主從復合句。find out后接if引導的賓語從句。
[9]此處為whoever引導的主語從句。
Then I would never talk to that person about boa constrictors，or primeval forests，or stars． I would bring myself down to his level． I would talk to him about bridge，and golf ，and politics ，and neckties ． And the grown up would be greatly pleased to have met such a sensible man．
(Excerpt from The Little Prince by Antoine de Saint Exupéry)
小王子
我六歲的時候在一本書里看到了一張非常震撼的圖。書的名字是《大自然的真實故事》，講的是原始森林。那張圖片上有一條蟒蛇正在吞掉一只動物。這是那張圖的摹本：
書上寫著：“蟒蛇把獵物整個吞下，完全不咀嚼。吞下以后，蟒蛇就動不了了。消化食物需要六個月，因此蟒蛇就睡六個月。”
那個時候，我深深地思考著原始叢林里的奇遇。我用一支彩色鉛筆，成功畫出了我的第一幅畫作。我的“一號畫作”是這樣的：
我把我的杰作給大人們看，問他們有沒有被我的畫嚇到。
但他們回答說：“嚇到？為什么有人會被一頂帽子嚇到？”
我畫的不是帽子，而是一條正在消化一頭大象的蟒蛇。但由于大人們沒有看懂，我又畫了一幅：我畫出了蟒蛇身體的內部，這樣大人們就能看清楚了。所有事情都非要你跟他們解釋清楚他們才能懂。我的“二號畫作”是這樣的：
這次，大人們的回答是建議我把不管是蟒蛇內部還是外部的畫都放到一邊，然后轉而專心學習地理、歷史、算術和語法。所以，六歲的時候，我放棄了可能會十分輝煌的職業畫家道路?！耙惶柈嬜鳌焙汀岸柈嬜鳌钡氖∈刮倚幕乙饫洹４笕藗儚膩頉]法自己弄懂任何事情，小孩永遠要給他們解釋是很辛苦的。
所以后來我選了另一個職業，我開始學習駕駛飛機。世界上每個地方我差不多都去過；地理對我確實很有用。我一眼就能分辨中國和亞利桑那州。如果晚上迷路了，這樣的知識很有價值。
在生命歷程中，我多次遇到過很多關心大事的人。我在大人之中生活了很久。我密切地觀察過他們，近在咫尺地看過。然而我對他們的看法還是沒有改觀。
每一次我遇到一個看上去頭腦完全清楚的大人，我都會給他看我一直帶著的“一號畫作”，想看看這個人是不是能真正地理解。但是，不論這個人是誰，他(她)總是會說：
“那是頂帽子?！?br/>然后我就不再跟那個人聊任何有關蟒蛇、原始森林或是星星的事情了。我就會把自己降低到他的層次，跟他聊橋牌、高爾夫、政治、領帶。而這個大人就會很高興能遇到這樣一個明智的人。

I showed my masterpiece to the grown-ups，and asked them whether the drawing frightened them．
But they answered: “Frighten Why should anyone be frightened by a hat？”
My drawing was not a picture of a hat．It was a picture of a boa constrictor [1]digesting an elephant．[2]But since the grown-ups were not able to understand it，I made another drawing：I drew the inside of the boa constrictor，so that the grown-ups could see it clearly． They always need to [3]have things explained．My Drawing Number Two looked like this：
[1]此處為動詞-ing形式短語在句中作定語，修飾a boa constrictor。
[2]本句中since引導原因狀語從句，so that引導目的狀語從句。
[3]此處為“have sth．done”結構。have是使役動詞，意為“使……”。
The grown-ups' response，this time，was to advise me to lay aside my drawings of boa constrictors，whether from the inside or the outside，and devote myself instead to geography，history，arithmetic and grammar．[4]That is why，at the age of six，I gave up what might have been a magnificent career as a painter． I had been disheartened by the failure of my Drawing Number One and my Drawing Number Two．Grown-ups never understand anything by themselves，and [5] it is tiresome for children to be always and forever explaining things to them．
[4]本句是一個主從復合句。why在此引導表語從句，從句中包含what引導的賓語從句，what在賓語從句中作主語。
[5]此處為“it is＋adj．＋(for sb．) to do sth．”結構，it是形式主語，真正的主語是后面的不定式短語。
So then I chose another profession ， and learned to pilot airplanes．I have flown a little over all parts of the world; and it is true that geography has been very useful to me．At a glance I can distinguish China from Arizona．If one gets lost in the night，such knowledge is valuable．
In the course of this life，I have had a great many encounters with a great many people who have been concerned with matters of consequence ．I have lived a great deal among grown-ups．I have seen them intimately ，[6]close at hand ．And that hasn't much improved my opinion of them．
[6]此處為副詞性短語，作狀語。
[7]Whenever I met one of them who seemed to me at all clear-sighted ，I tried the experiment of showing him my Drawing Number One，which I have always kept． [8]I would try to find out，so，if this was a person of true understanding．But，[9]whoever it was，he，or she，would always say：
“That is a hat．”
[7]本句是一個主從復合句。whenever在此引導時間狀語從句，從句中包含who引導的限制性定語從句，先行詞是them；主句中包含which引導的非限制性定語從句，先行詞為my Drawing Number One。
[8]本句是一個主從復合句。find out后接if引導的賓語從句。
[9]此處為whoever引導的主語從句。
Then I would never talk to that person about boa constrictors，or primeval forests，or stars．I would bring myself down to his level．I would talk to him about bridge，and golf ，and politics ，and neckties ．And the grown-up would be greatly pleased to have met such a sensible man．

小王子
我六歲的時候在一本書里看到了一張非常震撼的圖。書的名字是《大自然的真實故事》，講的是原始森林。那張圖片上有一條蟒蛇正在吞掉一只動物。這是那張圖的摹本：
書上寫著：“蟒蛇把獵物整個吞下，完全不咀嚼。吞下以后，蟒蛇就動不了了。消化食物需要六個月，因此蟒蛇就睡六個月?！?br/>那個時候，我深深地思考著原始叢林里的奇遇。我用一支彩色鉛筆，成功畫出了我的第一幅畫作。我的“一號畫作”是這樣的：
我把我的杰作給大人們看，問他們有沒有被我的畫嚇到。
但他們回答說：“嚇到？為什么有人會被一頂帽子嚇到？”
我畫的不是帽子，而是一條正在消化一頭大象的蟒蛇。但由于大人們沒有看懂，我又畫了一幅：我畫出了蟒蛇身體的內部，這樣大人們就能看清楚了。所有事情都非要你跟他們解釋清楚他們才能懂。我的“二號畫作”是這樣的：
這次，大人們的回答是建議我把不管是蟒蛇內部還是外部的畫都放到一邊，然后轉而專心學習地理、歷史、算術和語法。所以，六歲的時候，我放棄了可能會十分輝煌的職業畫家道路?！耙惶柈嬜鳌焙汀岸柈嬜鳌钡氖∈刮倚幕乙饫洹４笕藗儚膩頉]法自己弄懂任何事情，小孩永遠要給他們解釋是很辛苦的。
所以后來我選了另一個職業，我開始學習駕駛飛機。世界上每個地方我差不多都去過；地理對我確實很有用。我一眼就能分辨中國和亞利桑那州。如果晚上迷路了，這樣的知識很有價值。
在生命歷程中，我多次遇到過很多關心大事的人。我在大人之中生活了很久。我密切地觀察過他們，近在咫尺地看過。然而我對他們的看法還是沒有改觀。
每一次我遇到一個看上去頭腦完全清楚的大人，我都會給他看我一直帶著的“一號畫作”，想看看這個人是不是能真正地理解。但是，不論這個人是誰，他(她)總是會說：
“那是頂帽子?！?br/>然后我就不再跟那個人聊任何有關蟒蛇、原始森林或是星星的事情了。我就會把自己降低到他的層次，跟他聊橋牌、高爾夫、政治、領帶。而這個大人就會很高興能遇到這樣一個明智的人。
