英语翻译
My grandfather was a fine man.I loved him very much.But one day I told him a lie(谎话).I can not tell you now what the lie was.I was only seven years old then.Grandfather was not cross with me.
"Ask Jim to get a long ladder," he said."My boy now jumps from the tops houses,up to the roof(屋顶)."
Jim brought the big ladder.Then Grandfather said,"My boy now jumps from the tops of houses.The ladder is for him."
I knew at once what his was telling me.I had often heard the old saying," A lie is a jump form the top of a house.
I said nothing.But I felt like crying.
The minutes went by.What would people think about the ladder?It stood by the front door.I was afraid ti might be there a long time.I had to do something!
At last I went to Grandfather.He was reading a book.I went up to him and put my face on his arm.
"Grandfather," I said,"I will not tell a lie again.We don't need the ladder now." Grandfather seemed very happy once again.He called Jim."Take the ladder away," he said,"My boy does not jump from the tops of houses."
His words made me happy once again.
我祖父很开朗,我非常爱他.但是有一天我对他说了谎,现在我可以告诉你那个谎言是什么了.那时候我才7岁,祖父没有难为我.
"让吉姆抬一个梯子”他说:“我的小孩,现在你要从顶楼跳到房顶上”.
吉姆带来了大梯子.然后祖父说:“跳吧!梯子是为他准备的”.
我马上明白了.我听说过一句古老的谚语:“一个谎言就如同坠入深渊”.我什么也没有说,像是要哭了,随着时间的过去,人们会把梯子想象成什么呢?它就树立在前门,我担心它会在门前很长时间.我必须做一些事请了!
最后我回到祖父那里,他正在读一本书,我冲上去扑进他的臂弯.
“祖父”,我说:“我再也不会说慌了.现在我们不需要那个梯子了”.祖父又一次高兴了,他叫来吉姆.
“把梯子搬回去”他说:“我的孩子不会说谎的”
他的一字一句让我又一次展开了幸福的笑脸.
