《The Ugly Duckling》
A duck is sitting on five eggs.
The eggs break and five baby ducks come out.
The mother duck looks at her babies.
She has four beautiful baby ducks. But one is different.
It is big and grey. Its legs are very long.
The mother duck doesn't like it.
"Go away!" she says to the different duck."You are not my baby."
The different duck says goodbye and goes away. It's sad.
Then it sees the mother pig with her baby pigs.
"Are you my mother ?" it asks.
"No, I'm not your mother." says the mother pig .
breakfast(早餐):打破斋戒的第一餐
有很多人相信,短暂地禁食有益于身体健康。因此,很多宗教以及地方习俗中都有“斋戒”的做法,即在某段时期减少或停止饮食。斋戒在英语中是 fast,用于宗教术语斋戒,绝食。同时由稳固的衍生词义快速的。
斋戒期结束后吃的第一餐就叫做 breakfast ,字面意思就是“终止斋戒”。由于这一餐通常是在早晨吃的,所以后来 breakfast 就变成了“早餐”的英语叫法。
