Last week we said that in the Happy Forest, there was a New Year’s Party. After it was finished, everyone made their wishes for the new year.
上周我们说到,Happy Forest举办了精彩的新年晚会。晚会结束后,大家都许下了各自的新年愿望。
Pandora’s New Year’s wish was to lose weight. She decided to get rid of her belly fat. She made a detailed exercise plan, and decided to begin on day two of the new year.
Pandora的新年愿望是减肥。她决定减掉肚子上的游泳圈。Pandora做了详细的运动计划,决定从第二天开始减肥。
On that day, however, Pandora slept until noon, and completely forgot about her exercise plan.
可是第二天,Pandora一觉睡到中午才起床,竟然把运动计划给忘了。
After lunch, Junior went to ask Pandora to play badminton with him, but she said she was too tired, so she refused. Pandora yawned, pulled up her blanket and went back to sleep. When she woke up, it was already evening.
It was only then that she remembered her diet plan, but she was also feeling a little hungry.
吃完午饭,Junior来找Pandora去打羽毛球,Pandora却说自己太累,拒绝了Junior。她
哈欠连天,蒙着被子又睡起了午觉。这一觉醒来就到晚上了。Pandora这才想起自己的减肥计划,可此时的她又觉得有些饿了。
So Pandora lay on the couch, watched cartoons, and ate junk food. She quickly devoured the French fries, sausages, ice cream, and chocolates on the table. By the time she finished eating, it was already very late. Pandora sighed and said, “Ah, I guess I’ll just start tomorrow.”
于是Pandora窝在沙发上看起了动画,一边看,一边吃零食。桌上的薯片、香肠、冰淇淋、巧克力,很快就都进了Pandora的肚子。等到Pandora吃完桌上的零食,已经是深夜了。Pandora叹了口气:“哎,只能明天再减肥了。”
After a week, everyone was surprised to see that Pandora was even heavier than the year before. It turns out she’d been putting off her diet. Day after day passed and she hadn’t even yet begun.
一个星期之后,大家惊讶地发现Pandora比去年更胖了。原来这几天懒惰的Pandora总是在拖延,日子一天天过去,她的减肥计划却一直没有启动。
Teacher Rolin laughed and said, “Pandora, you always think you’ll start tomorrow, but when tomorrow is over, there’s always another one. You’ve already made your plan, so don’t make excuses. Get started. It’s the first step to making a change.”
Rolin老师笑着说,“Pandora,你总想着明天再开始,明天结束了,还有无数个明天。既然你做好了新年的减肥计划,就不能找借口,要马上行动起来,毕竟行动才是改变的第一步。”
Pandora was very ashamed. She hung her diet plan on the wall and would see it every morning when she opened her eyes. She gave away all the junk food she didn’t finish, and exercised vigorously. A month later, Pandora’s belly fat was gone! Everyone was very happy for her.
Pandora羞愧极了,她将减肥计划贴在墙上,每天睁开眼就能看到;她把没吃完的零食分给大家,积极地参加运动。过了一个月,Pandora肚子上的游泳圈果然不见了!大家都为她感到高兴。
Many of the children in the Happy Forest had lost their wallets recently. Could there be a thief among them? Who stole the wallets? Let’s find out next week!
最近Happy Forest的很多小伙伴都丢了钱包,难道森林里出现了一个小偷?到底是谁偷走了大家的钱包呢?我们下周再见咯。
