六一特别节目-孩子的选择

愿你永远保持一颗童心

马上就要到儿童节啦！

孩子的世界十分单纯，无非是吃好玩好。

说起玩，玩具就成了快乐的源泉。

今天我们分享一篇英语美文，讲述的是一个6岁小男孩在得到十美元零花钱的故事。

最后他拿着这是美元做什么了呢？

我们一起在故事中找答案把！

My husband gave my 6-year-old son a $10 bill.

丈夫把一张10美元的钞票交给了儿子。

This $10 bill went with my son everywhere, from one pair of jeans to another, one hoodie to the other.

这张钞票跟着他走到这儿走到那儿，从一条牛仔裤的口袋转移到另一条牛仔裤的口袋，从一件兜帽衫转移到另一件兜帽衫。

My son would even sleep soundly with the $10 bill under his head.

他把这张钞票放在枕头下面，似乎这样他就能睡得格外香甜。

You see, he was holding out to buy something special.

我明白，他想留着这张钞票，准备买点特别的东西。

One day my son and I went to the local grocery store where a man was singing carols and ringing a bell.

一天，我带他去附近的杂货店。我们看到一个男人，他一边唱着圣诞颂歌，一边摇着铃铛。

My son asked me "what is he doing?"

儿子问我，“他在做什么？”

I told my son "he's singing to get our attention in hopes of collecting money for the poor or for children who don't have toys."

我告诉他，“他想通过唱歌来吸引路人的注意，这样他就能为穷人，或者为没有玩具的孩子们筹集善款了。”

I proceeded to keep walking but my son wasn't next to me.

我继续向前走，儿子却不在我旁边了。

I turned around to see his little hand digging in his pocket, pulling out his $10 bill.

我转身发现他把小手伸进了口袋，拿出了那张10美元的钞票。

He slid the bill into the slot, said Merry Christmas and walked over to me.

他把钞票塞进了捐赠箱里，对那个男人说“圣诞快乐”，然后走回我身边来。

I said "you made mommy very happy."

我对他说，“你让妈妈非常开心！”

He told me "I heard a voice say go, give him the money."

他对我说，“我听到一个声音对我说，去吧，把你的钱给他。”

Then he said "I heard another voice say "no, keep the money, you want a toy."

接着他又说，“我听到另一个声音说，‘不，别给他，你不是想买个玩具的吗？’”

I told my son "you listened to the right voice……” He looked up at me with his hands in the air and asked "but who are they?"

我告诉他，“你听从了正确的声音，你做得对。”他扬起脸看着我，两手一摊，“可是，那是谁发出的声音呢？”

I laughed and said "they're you."

我笑了，对他说，“是你的心在对你说话呀！”
