兔八哥

世界儿童双语阅读(他们陪伴了你的童年)(2)

"What's up, doc?" Bugs Bunny is, perhaps, the most recognizable and famous cartoon character. Looney Tunes were first created as lead-ins to feature films. Bugs first appeared as a rabbit with no name in 1938 in "Porky's Hare Hunt." “出什么事了,伙计?”或许,兔八哥算得上辨识率最高、最著名的卡通人物了。1938年,兔八哥这一形象首次出现在电影《猪小弟猎兔》中,不过那时它还没有名字。

Tex Avery later named him Bugs Bunny after the infamous West Coast mobster. Decades later, Looney Tunes cartoons became a Saturday morning staple. Bugs Bunny is still tops.

在与臭名昭著的西海岸盗匪斗智斗勇的情节播出以后,特克斯·艾佛里将其定名为兔八哥。数十年后,兔巴哥漫画依旧是周六上午最受人欢迎的读物。

Charlie Brown

查理·布朗

这世上最悲伤的事大概就是,我养的狗,比我还出名……查理布朗是谁?哦,史努比的主人。其实,这个圆脑袋小男孩很乖的~

Introduced on TV in A Charlie Brown Christmas in 1965, this comic strip staple became a holiday tradition. The kid who never kicks the football, whose dog is more popular than he is and who has a crush on the red-headed girl steals our hearts every year with a variety of cartoon specials.

查理·布朗是1965年播出的《查理·布朗的圣诞节》中的人物。该系列漫画书连载五十年,似乎成为了一种节日传统。里面的孩子总要输球,就连身边的小狗看起来都更受人喜爱,他暗恋着一位红发女孩……每年的卡通特辑都让人为之倾心。

Popeye

大力水手波派

世界儿童双语阅读(他们陪伴了你的童年)(4)

Like many TV cartoon characters, Popeye began life as a comic strip. Then in 1933, he starred in aPopeye the Sailor. His catchphrases include, "Well, blow me down!" and "I eats my spinach!" His bulging forearms, squinty eyes, and a staccato chuckle are recognized by many generations.

像许多卡通人物一样,波派最初以连环漫画的方式问世。1933年,拍摄了卡通电影短片《大力水手》。波派的口头禅包括:“哇,真够可以的!”、“我吃菠菜!”。他健硕的前臂、斜着的眼睛、短促刺耳的笑声为一代代人所熟知。

Mickey Mouse

米老鼠

世界儿童双语阅读(他们陪伴了你的童年)(5)

Mickey Mouse represents Disney in all its forms. He started life in black and white in 1928's Steamboat Willie, the first synchronized sound cartoon. 米老鼠是迪士尼创造的代表人物。1928年,他拍摄了首部有声黑白卡通电影《汽船威利》。

Mickey Mouse was first voiced by Walt Disney, himself, then later byJim MacDonaldand Wayne Allwine. Mickey Mouse isn't just a cartoon character; he's an icon.米老鼠最初由沃特·迪士尼配音,接着是吉姆·麦克唐纳、韦恩·艾尔温。对于很多人来说,米老鼠不仅是一个卡通人物,更是一名偶像。

Homer Simpson

霍默·辛普森

世界儿童双语阅读(他们陪伴了你的童年)(6)

Homer Simpson is known throughout the world. Having been on TV for over 20 seasons, this patriarch is not the father who knows best, but he certainly tries. 霍默·辛普森是全球知名的卡通形象。开播二十年来,使观众印象最深的不是他作为一名父亲有多优秀,而是敢于尝试。

Homer Simpson is based on creator Matt Groening's father, who is also named Homer. And if you look at Homer's profile, a bit of his hair and his ear form the initials "M G."

霍默·汤普森这一形象取自《辛普森一家》创始人马特·格勒宁的父亲,他的父亲也叫霍默。看了《辛普森一家》,你就会发现霍默的头发和耳朵像极了马特·格勒宁姓名缩写“MG.”

Winnie the Pooh

小熊维尼

世界儿童双语阅读(他们陪伴了你的童年)(7)

When you hear the name "Winnie the Pooh," you may think of the honey-colored bear who wears a red shirt.This little bear who started as a doodle in a beloved children's book has been a thriving franchise for Disney since they bought rights to him and his woodland friends in the 60s. Winnie the Pooh has starred in many cartoons and specials, both on TV and in feature films.一听到“小熊维尼”这个名字,你也许会想起一只蜂蜜色的熊,穿着一件红色衬衫。起初,这只小熊出现在极受儿童喜爱的涂鸦书中;六十年代迪斯尼公司买下了维尼小熊及其林地朋友们的特许经营权,之后维尼小熊一度风靡世界,在电视电影方面,推出了不少上漫画、特辑。

皮杰猪和跳跳虎也很招人喜欢呢~

Donald Duck

唐老鸭

世界儿童双语阅读(他们陪伴了你的童年)(8)

As Mickey Mouse's cynical sidekick, Donald Duck was always my favorite. It wasn't the raspy voice or fashionable duds, but his eye-rolling attitude and exasperation. 米老鼠愤世嫉俗的伙伴唐老鸭,一直是我的最爱。喜欢它并非因为刺耳的声音,也非新潮的衣服,而是因为它嗤之以鼻的态度和愤怒。

Donald Duck made his debut in Walt Disney's Silly Symphony cartoon segment, "The Wise Little Hen," in 1934. His most memorable turn may be as Scrooge McDuck in Mickey's Christmas Carol, released in 1983.

1934年,唐老鸭首次出现,是在迪士尼的《糊涂交响曲》里“聪明的小母鸡”这一卡通片段中。1983年,它在《米奇的快乐圣诞》中扮演的吝啬鬼形象,是其最令人难忘的转变。

Woody Woodpecker

啄木鸟伍迪

世界儿童双语阅读(他们陪伴了你的童年)(9)

Another anti-hero, Woody Woodpecker lives to cause trouble. His most famous trait is no doubt his cackling, stuttering laugh. 啄木鸟伍迪同样是一位非传统英雄式的主角,它活着似乎就是为了制造麻烦。略带结巴的咯咯笑声是伍迪最大的特点。

Walter Lantz created Woody Woodpecker. Although Mel Blanc, then Ben Hardaway, originally voiced the character, Grace, voiced Woody Woodpecker from 1948's Banquet Busters through 1972.

沃尔特·兰兹创造了啄木鸟伍迪。梅尔·布兰科、本·哈德威最初相继为该角色配音,而1948年至1972年间,格蕾丝在《盛宴坏蛋》中为该角色配音。

Tom and Jerry

汤姆和杰瑞

世界儿童双语阅读(他们陪伴了你的童年)(10)

Tom and Jerry chase each other, torment each other and generally try to defeat the other. Though Tom has the upper hand more than, say, Sylvester, he still has yet to make a meal of Jerry. 汤姆和杰里相互追逐,彼此折磨,二人总是试图打败对方。不过汤姆多占上风,宣称傻大猫永远享受不了鼠肉。

Tom and Jerryhave had many incarnations, beginning with the Academy award-winning MGM shorts in the 1940s to the most recent episodes on Cartoon Network.

《汤姆和杰里》有许多典型作品,从20世纪40年代,奥斯卡奖得主米高梅公司推出的作品到近期美国卡通电视网播出的剧集,都可见其身影。

那只穿尿布的小老鼠Nibbles,你们还记得吗?

The Powerpuff Girls

飞天小女警

世界儿童双语阅读(他们陪伴了你的童年)(12)

Girl power times three. Blossom, Bubbles, and Buttercup keep Townsville, USA safe from evil while dealing with the pressures of kindergarten. The visual style of The Powerpuff Girlssets it apart, though, along with the abundance of tongue-in-cheek humor.The Powerpuff Girlsfirst premiered in 1998 and can still be seen on Boomerang.

飞天小女警有三位,分别是花花、泡泡和毛毛。她们一边保卫着汤斯维尔和美国不受邪恶势力的侵犯,一边还要上幼儿园。《飞天小女警》中的女孩视觉风格各异,剧中随处可见半玩笑式的幽默。1988年《飞天小女警》问世,美国卡通电视网经典动画频道至今仍在播出。

最后,拯救世界三人组来啦~~

Superman/ Spider-Man/ Batman

超人、蜘蛛侠、蝙蝠侠

世界儿童双语阅读(他们陪伴了你的童年)(13)

Superman is the ultimate superhero because of his unerring loyalty to doing well. Like his other DC Comics friends, Superman starred inSuper Friendsand Justice League of America. His own series have been Superman(1988) and Superman: The Animated Series(1996). But who could forget The Superman/Aquaman Hour of Adventure(1967)?

超人是终极超级英雄,因为他向来忠诚。像其他DC公司创作的漫画形象一样,超人也在《超级英雄战队》和《正义联盟》中亮相。接着,有了《超人》系列(1988年)以及《超人:动画系列》(1996年)。但是,谁能忘记1967年动画剧集《超人与水行侠的冒险》?

世界儿童双语阅读(他们陪伴了你的童年)(14)

Spider-Man is the everyman superhero. He started out as the geek next door and was transformed into a mega-strong, mega-agile dude. Spidery first starred in 1967's Spider-Man, then cameSpider-Man and His Amazing Friends(1981),Spider-Man: The Animated Series(1995) andSpider-Man: The New Animated Series (2003).

蜘蛛侠是人人心目中的英雄。起初,他只是一名邻家的极客,由于意外被一只受过放射性感染的蜘蛛咬伤而变成敏捷强大的超人。1967年,蜘蛛侠在动画《蜘蛛侠》中首次亮相。随后,推出了《新蜘蛛侠》(1981)、《蜘蛛侠动画版》(1995)、《新蜘蛛侠动画版》(2003)。

世界儿童双语阅读(他们陪伴了你的童年)(15)

Can you imagine a time when Batman wasn't the Dark Knightwe know now? Hard to believe the many transformations this superhero has seen through the years, especially on television. The caped crusader has had several of his own cartoons: Batman: The Brave and the Bold(2008),The Batman(2004), Batman Beyond (1999), Batman: The Animated Series(1992).你能想象,蝙蝠侠一度并非是人们在《黑暗骑士》中所见到的形象吗?难以相信这个超级英雄这些年发生了如此之多的变化,特别是在电视荧屏。这位身披披肩的战士有多部电影动画片:《蝙蝠侠:神勇双雄》(2008年)、《蝙蝠侠》(2004年)、《未来蝙蝠侠》(1999年)以及《蝙蝠侠:动画系列》(1992年)。

好啦,今天的盘点就到这儿了,这里面,有你的童年吗?

By the way,花栗鼠们真的没那么出名吗?
