胡萝卜carrot[英]['kærət] [美][ˈkærət] 中英文故事：留给妹妹一份（4） 我记得自己对护士说："这个可爱的小孩很聪明——她为自己要了两块糖。如果我是她的话，我可能会要一整袋糖果！”但是护士又问了她几个问题，我们才知道： 谭奇拉今年7岁了。两年前，她5岁的时候，她的爸爸妈妈和这个国家里的很多人一样死于艾滋病。父母惨死时，她和当时只有3岁的小妹妹被拆散了，从此她再也没有见到小妹妹。但是从那时起，无论什么时候别人送给谭奇拉东西，包括食物在内，不给两份，她就不接受。两个胡萝卜、两个玩具、两块糖。一份给自己，一份给她小妹妹（很可能已不在人世）。 I remember saying to the nurse, “This little darling is clever. She has taken two for herself. If I were her I’d probably have asked for the whole bag !，，But after the nurse had asked her some more questions this is what we learned ： Tanzile is 7 now. Two years ago when she was five her mum and dad both died of HIV/AIDS like so many have in this country. At the time of her parents’ tragic death, she was separated from her baby sister who was three at the time. Tanzile has not laid eyes on her since. But ever since that time, whenever Tanzile receives anything from anyone, including food—she refuses to accept it, unless they give her two. Two carrots, two toys, two sweets—one for her and one for her baby sister (who in all likelihood didn’t sur¬vive) . 中英文例句 1.
