【笑話原文】

The Goldfish Is inside Your Cat 金魚(yú)在貓咪的肚子里

Little Amy was in the garden filling in a hole when her neighbor peered over the fence.

Interested in what the cheeky-faced youngster was doing, he politely asked, "What are you up to there, Amy?"

"My goldfish died," replied Amy tearfully, without looking up, "and I've just buried him."

The neighbor was concerned, "That's an awfully big hole for a goldfish, isn't it?"

Amy patted down the last heap of earth then replied, "That's because he's inside your cat."

【中文譯文】

小艾米正在花園里填一個(gè)坑，這時(shí)，她的鄰居隔著籬笆看見(jiàn)了。

鄰居很好奇這個(gè)胖嘟嘟的小家伙在干什么，于是禮貌地問(wèn)：“艾米，你在那兒忙些什么呀?”

“我的金魚(yú)死了，”艾米頭也不抬地哽咽道，“我剛剛把它埋了。”

鄰居困惑地說(shuō)：“這個(gè)坑對(duì)于一條金魚(yú)來(lái)說(shuō)也太大了吧，對(duì)不?”

艾米輕輕拍了拍最后一捧土并回答：“那是因?yàn)榻痿~(yú)在你貓咪的肚子里!”

【詞匯講解】

1.peer vi.凝視，注視。不及物動(dòng)詞，因此要加上介詞over?？梢愿鶕?jù)不同的情況加不同的介詞，如：he peered through a crack in the door.他通過(guò)門縫瞇眼看。

2.interested in 對(duì)什么感興趣，后面加名詞或動(dòng)名詞

3. youngster 年輕人，小孩，有時(shí)也指小動(dòng)物

4. what are you up to there? 非?？谡Z(yǔ)化，和what are you doing 是一個(gè)意思，你在忙些什么?be up to 有時(shí)也表示進(jìn)展的意思，如：what are you up to? 你(的事情)進(jìn)展怎么樣了?

5. replied Amy tearfully 使用了倒裝，把動(dòng)詞置于主語(yǔ)前，使短文的句子結(jié)構(gòu)更豐富

6.awfully也是個(gè)很口語(yǔ)化的詞，表示非常的意思，置于形容詞前，例如：I’m awfully sorry我感到十分抱歉
