小王子英文中英对照第2 5The Little Prince (Excerpt)Chapter 2It was then that the six-year-old me, in the book, saw a magnificent picture which was called "The Boa Constrictor from the Tropics in an Act to Swallow an Animal." It was a picture of a boa constrictor in the act of swallowing an animal. Here is a copy of the drawing.In the book, the grown-ups' response to this drawing was to say, "That's a hat."But I had not drawn a hat. I had drawn a boa constrictor digesting an elephant. But since the grown-ups were not able to understand it, Imade another drawing: I drew the inside of the boa constrictor, so that the grown-ups could see it clearly. They always need to have things explained. My Second Drawing looked like this:The grown-ups advised me to put aside my drawings of boa constrictors, whether from the inside or the outside, and devote myself instead to geography, history, arithmetic, and grammar. 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 it is tiresome for children to be always and forever explaining things to them.Chapter 5As each day passed, I would learn, in the morning, from the flowers,and at night, from the stars. I would already have loved to take my sheep and go off somewhere else. But the recollection of the flower that I had left behind atone for my ingratitude. All the stars are good, he used to say, and he made lovely tricks with them. But he never could do anything really important. My flower is ephemeral, and she has only four thorns to defend herself against the world. And I have left her on my planet, all alone!That is why it is of the greatest importance to me, and also, I believe, to the little prince, that the sheep should eat his flowers with the utmost care.He assured me that it would be so: "It is true that they do not eat bushes or flowers. I heard that somewhere. But one never knows! They are so strange! They are like boxes with chickens inside!"And I noticed with some surprise that he was becoming thoughtful. He worried about the sheep, about the flower, and about the thorns. For the first time in his life, he was responsible for something real. He was not used to it. He took my advice to heart. He bought a wooden fence to put around his flower, and he watered it every day. I must, then, have been very important to him.For the little prince, I was the one who understood his flower. That isbecause I was the one who had been initiated into its secrets—all those actions hidden beneath the reserve and the apparent indifference. Under that cold exterior, I had discerned the first signs of a great affection.The little prince, who now wanted to be certain of the sheep's good behavior, came back to me again:"You have good poison? You are sure that it will not make me suffer too long?"I answered that I had, indeed, a poison that was deadly, but that the merest trace of it would put an end to both hunger and thirst. I added: "But why should I use it on your sheep?""In order to make sure that they die right away," he said. "That way, it will not be necessary for them to suffer.""But why should they die at all?""So that my flower may not be bothered by them!" he answered, "she has been troubling me enough as it is!"His answer touched me deeply. For behind all the reserve of his manner, what was revealed was a remarkable sweetness and loyalty. I said to him:"My dear little prince, your flowers are in no danger。
