愿望wish[英][wɪʃ] [美][wɪʃ] 中英文小故事：三个愿望 有三个探险家，一个英国人，一个美国人，一个澳大利亚人，他们在热带丛林里迷路了。 此前，他们已经在丛林里待了六个月。现在他们没有了食物，而且身体也很虚弱。 他们知道如果不赶快找到一个村子落脚，大家就都活不成了。 当天夜里，一个精灵拜访了他们。 “我是丛林里的精灵，”它说，“我很同情你们的遭遇，可以帮你们实现三个愿望。” “你是说我们每人都实现三个愿望，还是我们三个人一共实现三个愿望？”美国探险家问道。 “你们每个人只可以实现一个愿望。”丛林精灵答道。彬彬有礼的英国探险家对美国探险家和澳大利亚探险家说：“请你们先来许愿吧。” 同样有礼貌的澳大利亚探险家说：“还是你们先来吧。”“好吧，”英国探险家说，“我根本不用考虑，我很清楚我想许什么愿望，我想回家与我的妻子和家人团聚。” 说完他立刻就消失了。 “太棒了！”澳大利亚探险家说，“我的愿望和他的差不多，我想回澳大利亚。” 他也立刻消失了。 这时就剩下美国人了。 “你的愿望呢？”丛林精灵问他。 “那两个探险家都是好人，”美国探险家说，“我们已经成为了亲密的朋友。老实说，他们不在这儿，我感到很孤独。我的愿望就是让他们再回到这儿。” Three Wishes Three explorers，an Englishman，an American and an Australian were lost in the jungle. They stayed in the jungle for 6 months before they got lost. Now they had no food left，and they were weak and ill. They knew that if they did not find a village soon, they would die. Then, during the night, a jungle spirit visited them. “I’m the spirit of the jungle,”it said. “I feel sorry for you. You may have three wishes. ” “Does that mean three wishes each，or three wishes between us?”the American explorer asked. “I will give each of you one wish,”the spirit of the jungle said. The English explorer，who was very polite, said to the American and Australian explorers，“Please，you wish first. ” The Australian explorer, who was almost as polite as the Englishman said，“Please，you wish first. ” “Very well,”the English man said. “I don’t have to think for a minute. I know exactly what to wish for. I wish to be back home with my wife and family. ” Immediately he disappeared. “That’s wonderful,”the Australian explorer said. “My wish is similar. I’d like to be back in Australia. ” And immediately he disappeared. The American was left alone. “And what is your wish?” the spirit of the jungle asked him. “Those two explorers were nice men,”the American explorer said. “We became close friends. To tell you the truth, I am feeling rather lonely here without them. I wish they were back here again. ” 中英文例句 1. Wish him plenty of both. 希望他能两者兼具。 2. They will probably get their wish. 他们愿望也许会得以成真。 3. But what does he wish for? 但圣诞老人的愿望是什么呢？ 4. Each one represents a wish fulfilled. 每一块匾代表一个愿望成真了。 5. What sort of wish is that? 什么样的祝愿是那样的？ |
