The Little Boy and the Old Man

　　Said the little boy, "Sometimes I drop my spoon."

　　Said the old man, "I do that too."

　　The little boy whispered, "I wet my pants."

　　"I do that too," laughed the old man.

　　Said the little boy, "I ofter cry."

　　The old man nodded, "So do I."

　　"But worst of all," said the boy, "it seems

　　Grown-ups don't pay attention to me."

　　And he felt the warmth of a wrinkled old hand.

　　"I know what you mean," said the little old man.

　　词语解释:

　　spoon: n. 勺子

　　pants: n. 裤子,短裤

　　Grown-ups: n. 成人,大人

　　wrinkle: n.&v. 皱纹 wrinkled指布满皱纹的

　　读了这段对话,我脑子里浮现出这样一幅画面,在村边的一块大石头上,一个流着鼻涕的小男孩和一个头发花白佝偻着背的小老头坐在一起,或许我们真的要对孩子和老人多一些关心和爱护了。不知道大家有什么感想？试着翻译一下吧,或许能给你带来更多的沉思……
