不如演丑小鸭吧!
Once upon a time a mother duck sat on her nest waiting for her eggs to hatch.
Suddenly,seven ducklings popped out of their eggs and began to chirp.As they
looked around,everyone started to stare at one special duckling.
"That one is grey and bigger than the rest of us!" cried one duckling."He is
uglier than the rest of us," said another duckling.
The grey duckling often watched the other ducklings play happily in the pond,
but nobody wanted to play with him.The farm animals were very mean to him and
everyone knew him as the ugly duckling.He would often cry during the night as
mother duck whispered,"You are a very special duck,and I love you."
One day the ugly duckling decided to run away from the farm.He found a pond
with many wild ducks."Welcome to our home at the pond.Please be careful
because this is a dangerous pond," said one of the wild ducks.
The ugly duckling decided to stay with the nice ducks all summer.One day he
looked up in the sky and saw two beautiful white birds with large wings and
long necks fly over the pond - they were swans.He wished that he could be as
beautiful as a swan.
Pow!Pow!One autumn day,lots of men and dogs arrived at the pond and they
were shooting at the wild ducks.The wild ducks all flew away and the ugly
duckling was left behind.Winter was about to begin and the ugly duckling
wondered how he would survive the long,cold winter.A man who was walking in
the woods saw the ugly duckling."I'll take this bird home so my family can
take care of him during the cold winter months," said the man.So the ugly
duckling lived with the man all winter.
When it was spring,the man and his family released the ugly duckling back
into the forest.The ugly duckling went to the pond and as he looked at his
reflection,he realized that he was a beautiful white bird - just like the
ones he had seen in the summer.He looked up and saw four swans flying in
the sky.He flew up to join them in the sky."Welcome to our family," said one
of the swans.
The ugly duckling was not ugly anymore.He was a beautiful and happy swan.
