英語小故事約翰第一天上學

 John's first class約翰第一天上學

The six-year-old John was terribly spoiled. His father knew it, but his grandma doted on(溺愛,寵愛) him. He hardly left her side. And when he wanted anything, he either cried or threw a temper tantrum(亂髮脾氣) . Then came his first day of school, his first day away from his grandmother's loving arms.

六歲的約翰嬌生慣養。他的父親知道這一點,可他的祖父母仍然寵着他。這孩子幾乎寸步不離他的祖母。他想要什麼不是哭,就是鬧。

When he came home from school his grandma met him at the door. "Was school all right?" she asked, "Did you get along all right? Did you cry?"

他第一天上學才離開祖母的懷抱。約翰放學了,他奶奶在門口接他並問道:“學校怎麼樣?你過的`好嗎?哭了沒有?”

"Cry?" John asked. "No, I didn't cry, but the teacher did!"

“哭?”約翰問,“不,我沒哭,可老師哭了。”
