2019年小學(xué)英語(yǔ)晨讀練習(xí)：《Birbal the wise》

　　Once there was a wise man named Birbal. One day， a rich man came to Birbal. He said to Birbal， “I have seven servants in my house. One of them has stolen my bag of precious pearls. Please find out the thief.”

　　從前，有個(gè)很聰明的人，他叫比巴爾。有一天一個(gè)富人找到了比巴爾，對(duì)他說(shuō)：“我家里有7個(gè)仆人，其中有一個(gè)人偷了我一袋珍貴的珍珠。請(qǐng)幫我找出這個(gè)小偷吧！”

　　So Birbal went to the rich man‘s house. He called all the seven servants in a room. He gave a stick to each one of them. Then he said， “These are magic sticks. Just now all these sticks are equal in length. Keep them with you and return tomorrow. If there is a thief in the house， his stick will grow an inch longer by tomorrow.”

　　于是比巴爾去了富人家里，他叫來(lái)了全部7個(gè)仆人，給每個(gè)人發(fā)了一根棍子。然后對(duì)他們說(shuō)：“這些是有魔法的棍子，現(xiàn)在這些棍子都是一樣長(zhǎng)，你們把它們帶回家，明天再帶過(guò)來(lái)，如果家里有小偷的話，這個(gè)人的棍子明天就會(huì)長(zhǎng)長(zhǎng)一寸。”

　　The servant who had stolen the bag of pearls was scared. He thought， “If I cut a piece of one inch from my stick， I won’t be caught.” So he cut the stick and made it shorter by one inch.

　　偷了珍珠的仆人害怕了，他想：“如果我把棍子切掉一寸的話，就不會(huì)被抓到了。”于是他切掉了棍子，讓棍子短了一寸。

　　The next day Birbal collected the sticks from the servants. He found that one servant‘s stick was short by an inch. Birbal pointed his finger at him and said， “Here is the thief.” The servant confessed to his crime. He returned the bag of pearls. He was sent to jail.

　　第二天，比巴爾把仆人們的棍子都收了上來(lái)。他發(fā)現(xiàn)有一個(gè)仆人的棍子短了一寸，于是就指著他說(shuō)：“你就是小偷。”仆人承認(rèn)了罪行，把珍珠還給了富人，最后還被送進(jìn)了監(jiān)獄。
