Kangaroos and the Cage 袋鼠与笼子

睡前英语小故事三只小猪(睡前英语小故事)(1)

One day the staff members of a zoo called a meeting to discuss the problem (问题)--how to deal with the kangaroos (袋鼠) that were found out of the cage.

有一天,动物园的管理员们召开会议讨论着一个问题——当发现袋鼠跑出笼子外面时,该如何处理。

They came to the conclusion (结论) that the cage was placed too low and decided to raise it from one to two meters high.

他们一致认为是笼子的高度过低,所以他们决定将笼子由原来的1米加高到2米。

But the next day the kangaroos were still out of the cage and they again raised the cage to three meters.

但是第二天袋鼠还是跑到笼外,所以他们又将笼子加高到3米。

Quite beyond their expectation (预期) the next morning they saw the kangaroos still free to go about.

出乎意料的是,隔天早上他们又看到袋鼠们都在外面。

They were alarmed and determined to go to all the length by raising the cage to the height of ten meters.

于是管理员们大为紧张,并决定将笼子的高度加高到10米。

Later a giraffe (长颈鹿), while chatting with some kangaroos, asked them: “Do you think they will go on raising your cage?”

之后一只长颈鹿和几只袋鼠在闲聊时问道:“你们觉得这些人会不会再继续加高你们的笼子?”

“Hard to say.” said a kangaroo, “If they continue forgetting to fasten the cage door!”

“很难说。”一只袋鼠说,“如果他们再继续忘记锁门的话!”
