The Pear in the Pear Tree

By Pamela Allen

梨子树上的梨子



When John and Jane went out walking, they were busy talking.

Until ...

'Look, ' said John. ' Look up here. I can see a juicy pear. '

当John和Jane两个人出去散步的时候，他们正忙着聊天。

突然间……

“快看，”John大叫道。“看，看上面，我看到一只多汁的梨子。”

They couldn't reach. They had a try. What will they do ? It's up too high.

他们够不到。他们试了半天。他们应该怎么办？梨子太高了。



They fetched a ladder. ' I'm ready, ' said Jane. ' You must hold it steady.'

他们搬来一把梯子。“我准备好了，” Jane说，“ 你一定要稳稳地扶住哦。 ”

But just as Jane was reaching out, poor John let out a warning shout.

但是，就在Jane快要够到的时候，可怜的John大声警告道。

The ladder leaned... Jane screamed...

OOOOOWWWWWWWW !!!!

梯子倾斜……Jane尖叫着……

哦哦哦哦哦哦哦！！



Now clining to the top-most rung, just like a metronome she swung ... back and forth, back and forth. 

现在，Jane身处梯子最顶端，就像个摇摆的节拍器……摆来摆去，摆来摆去。

Soon John was running very fast to keep Jane up. It didn't last ---

不久之后，John快跑起来，从而保持Jane不掉下去。但这并不能持续多久——



Jane like a fishing lure was cast.

OOOOOOWWWWWWW!!!!

Jane像个鱼饵被扔了出去。

哦哦哦哦哦！！



SPLOSH !

A bird was sound asleep that day in a pond not far away, when Jane came hurtling from the sky and landed SPLOSH-SH-SH nearby.

扑通 !

一只鸟在不远处的池塘边熟睡着，正在此时Jane从空中嗖嗖地飞过，“扑通”一声落入水中。



The startled bird got such a scare. She was shot UP... in the air.

AAARK !

受惊的鸟儿吓坏了，它被弹到空中大叫……

啊啊啊~~~嘎嘎嘎！



Jane was struggling in the water.

John reached out his hand and caught her.

Now Jane was wet with dripping hair.

But still they had to have that pear.

Jane 在水中挣扎。

John伸出手把她拖上来。

现在Jane披着湿漉漉的头发。

但是，他们还是想要摘到那个梨子。



How will they ever reach up there ? How will they ever get that pear ?

Boingng-ng... the bird dropped from the sky and landed on the branch, up high.

可是他们怎么上去呢？怎么样才能拿到梨子呢？

“砰”的一声，鸟儿从天而降，摔在高高的树枝上。



She landed PLONK ! in quite a state and bent the branch with her great weight.

Although she landed heavily, and bounced and rocked unsteadily.

她“砰”地一声落在树上，用肥肥的身体把树枝压弯了。她落得很重，并且压得树枝摇摇晃晃。



John was able to reach the pear now that she was sitting there.

The pear was fastened very tight. They pulled and pulled with all their might.

当那只鸟儿坐在树枝上的时候，John正好够到了梨子。

鸭梨紧紧地挂在书上，他们用尽了力气拉呀啦。



TWANG - NG ! the precious pear came free. And the the bird, as you can see, was CAT-A-PUL-TED from the tree.

She landed SHPLOP ! back in the pond, safe and sound where she belonged.

Duang ！ 那来之不易的梨子就这么拿下来了。之后，那只鸟儿就像你看到的那样，从树上弹射出去。

她“砰”地一声，落回到池塘里，完好如初地回到她原来呆的地方。



John and Jane now ate the pear. One bite each --- that was fair.

They ate it up, down to the core.  ' That's all, ' said Jane. ' There is no more. '

现在，John和Jane正在吃着梨子。你一口，我一口——这样才公平嘛。他们吃完，并留下梨核。Jane说，“就这些，没有啦！”

The end.
