He Hates Carrots
讨厌胡萝卜
“Eat your vegetables, Mikey,” Mom said. “I am eating my vegetables,” Mikey said. He was eating the sliced carrots. He was eating the sliced carrots one by one. He was eating them one at a time. He picked up one sliced carrot with his fork. He looked at it. He slowly put it in his mouth. He slowly chewed it. Finally, he swallowed it. Then he drank some water. Then he picked up another sliced carrot with his fork. Mom watched him. “Why do you hate vegetables, Mikey?” He said, “I don’t hate vegetables. I hate carrots.” “Why do you hate carrots?” Mom asked. “Because they don’t taste good,” Mikey said. “But they are good for you,” Mom said. “They are good for your eyes. They help you to see well. Don’t you want to see well?” “Not if I have to see carrots,” Mikey said.
妈妈说：“麦琪，吃蔬菜。”麦琪说：“我正在吃。”他正在吃切片胡萝卜。他一片一片地吃。他每次吃一片。他用叉子叉起胡萝卜。他看着胡萝卜。并将它慢慢放在嘴里。慢慢咀嚼。最终吞咽下去。之后喝点水。又用叉子叉起另一片胡萝卜。妈妈看着他。他说：“你为什么讨厌吃蔬菜？”他说：“我不讨厌蔬菜，但我讨厌胡萝卜。”妈妈问：“为什么？”麦琪说：“因为不好吃。”妈妈说：“它有益健康。它对眼睛好。它能让你明目。你不想明目了？”麦琪说：“如果必须吃胡萝卜那就不要了。”
