Dad's Day of Adventure — 爸爸的冒险之日
1One
sunny day, Dad decided
to
have
a
little adventure. He grabbed
his
comic
book
and sat down
at
his computer. As
he clicked
open
his
favorite
science
fiction page,
he dreamed of becoming
a doctor
in
the future. "Surely,
I
can save lives,"
he thought
with
a smile.
一个晴朗的日子,爸爸决定要有一次小冒险。他抓起他的连环画书,坐在电脑前。当他点击打开他最喜欢的科幻页面时,他梦想着将来成为一名医生。“我一定可以拯救生命”,他满怀希望地想到。
2Suddenly,
he heard
a
knock
on
the door. It was Mary,
their neighbor, holding
a
stamp
in
her hand. "I
think
this
stamp belongs
to you, Dad,"
she said
with
a
great
big smile. Dad thanked
her
and gave
a
little whistle, making
his messy
hair bounce. "I'm going
to
the
hairdresser
right now!"
he exclaimed.
突然,他听到了敲门声。那是玛丽,他们的邻居,手里拿着一枚邮票。“我觉得这枚邮票是你的,爸爸”,她笑得合不拢嘴。爸爸感谢她,吹了一声口哨,让他蓬乱的头发弹跳起来。“我马上就要去理发店了!”他兴奋地说道。
3As Dad
put
on
his
raincoat
and checked
the schedule,
he realized
he had
a free day. He headed
to
the
park
but stopped
by
the
toilet
to check
the temperature. It was perfect
for
a barbecue! Dad found
his trusty frying pan
and set
up
a
tropical
track
in
the park.
爸爸穿上雨衣,查看了行程表,意识到他有一天空闲。他朝公园走去,但在去之前他顺便去了厕所,检查了一下温度。它正好适合烧烤!爸爸找到了他可靠的平底锅,在公园里搭建了一个热带赛道。
4Just as
he was about
to
start
his adventure,
a
lion appeared
on
a poster. Dad laughed
and decided
to
head
to
the
beach instead. In
the future,
he wanted
to
act
like
a
handsome hero,
so
he practiced
running
on
the sandy shores.
就在他即将开始冒险的时候,一个狮子出现在一张海报上。爸爸笑了笑,决定改去海滩。将来,他想要像一个英俊的英雄一样行动,所以他在沙滩上练习奔跑。
5On
his
way home, Dad passed
by
a
closed museum.
January was
the
month of
their grand reopening. He couldn't resist
phoning
his friends
to
tell
them about
the
science
cartoon exhibit. Excitedly,
he pushed
open
the
museum doors.
在回家的路上,爸爸经过了一家关闭的博物馆。一月是他们盛大重新开放的月份。他忍不住给朋友打电话,告诉他们有关科学漫画展的事。兴奋地,他推开了博物馆的门。
6Inside, Dad felt
like an
astronaut exploring
a mysterious planet. He picked
up
a
postcard
and
a pail, pretending
to
be
a
waiter serving
eel
and
carrot soup. His wild imagination boiled over as
he pretended
to
be
twenty-four different
characters
in
the museum.
在里面,爸爸感觉自己像一名宇航员探索着一个神秘的星球。他拿起一张明信片和一个铲子,假装是一名侍应生给人们端上鳗鱼胡萝卜汤。他疯狂的想象力爆发出来,他在博物馆中扮演了24个不同的角色。
7The next morning, Dad woke
up
with an idea. He wanted
to
fly
like
a superhero. After breakfast,
he called
the
cleaners
and asked
for
a
flying carpet. They laughed
and said
it wasn't possible. Undeterred, Dad brainstormed
and realized
he
could use
a
big
bowl as
his
flying saucer.
第二天早上,爸爸醒来有了一个主意。他想要像超级英雄一样飞翔。早餐后,他给清洁工打电话,要求一块飞毯。他们笑了笑,说这是不可能的。然而,爸爸没有气馁,他开始脑力激荡,意识到他可以用一个大碗作为他的飞碟。
8With
his
flying bowl, Dad set off
on
a journey
across
the country. He visited businesses,
sandal shops,
and even fundraisers
for towel-clad teenagers. Dad recorded
everything
on
videotape
to share
with
his friends.
带着他的飞碟,爸爸展开了一次穿越国家的旅程。他参观了企业、凉鞋店,甚至为裹着毛巾的青少年募捐。爸爸把这一切都记录在录像带上,与他的朋友们分享。
9At
one stop,
he met
a
young
boy
who loved skateboarding. Dad cheered
him
on
at
the local carnival, watching
him perform tricks
in awe. Afterward, Dad took
a refreshing
shower
and washed
away
the sweat
from
his own adventures.
在其中一个停靠点,他遇到了一个热爱滑板的小男孩。爸爸在当地嘉年华会上为他喝彩,惊叹地看着他表演技巧。之后,爸爸洗了一个清爽的澡,洗去自己冒险中的汗水。
10Lastly, Dad spent
the
weekend
sightseeing
in
a quaint
little town. He used
soap bubbles
to
paint
a
big
picture
on
the
wall of
a farmhouse. At night,
he lit
a
candle
and enjoyed
a delicious
chocolate dish
at
a local parade.
最后,爸爸在一个宁静的小镇观光度过了周末。他用肥皂泡泡在一座农舍的墙上画了一副大图画。晚上,他点燃了一支蜡烛,在当地的游行中品尝了一道美味的巧克力菜肴。
11On
the piano, Dad played an enchanting melody while
sitting
in
his
favorite armchair. As
he washed
away
the day's adventures,
he reflected
on
the joy
he found
in embracing every moment. Dad knew
that life was
like
a
beautiful painting,
and
he was
the painter.
在钢琴上,爸爸坐在他最喜欢的扶手椅上弹奏着迷人的旋律。当他洗净一天的冒险时,他沉思着在每一个瞬间所找到的快乐
12Everyday
with Dad was filled
with laughter
and love. In
this nature-filled world,
they built memories
together
at
their
favorite hotel. With
a
flashlight
in hand,
they played
jump
rope
and meditated
under lemon-scented trees.
13And so,
this
is
the
story of Dad's Day of Adventure. Wherever
he goes, whatever
he does, Dad's spirit shines bright, reminding
us all
to embrace
the
world
and
know
that life
is
full of possibilities.
