Snow Magic 雪的魔法

When snow falls*， it seems* the whole world is new! Kids are very happy. They can have snowball fights*.

譯文：下雪時，似乎整個世界煥然一新！孩子們非常開心，他們可以打雪仗。/他們可以堆雪人。看！好大的雪人啊！他的個子跟孩子們一樣高。

“Here are branches* for arms，” says the girl. “And buttons* for a coat，” says the boy. They put a hat on the snowman’s head. Now the snowman is perfect*.

Right before bed， they wave* and say good night to their snowman. “Why does he look so lonely*?” says the boy.

譯文：“這些樹枝用來做雪人的手臂。”女孩說。“那些是衣服的紐扣。”男孩說。他們把一頂帽子戴在雪人的頭上。現在雪人很完美了。/ 就在睡覺前，他們向雪人揮手說晚安。“為什么他看起來這么孤單呢？”男孩說。

Soon he has some friends. In a little while*， snow begins to fall. And guess what? Magic is about to* happen*!

Do you see what is happening? The snowflakes* are beautiful. He has three snowman friends!

譯文：很快，他就有了一些朋友。過了一會兒，開始下雪了。猜猜怎么樣？魔法即將發生嘍！/你看到發生了什么沒有？雪花真漂亮。他有了三個雪人朋友！

His three new friends need* some eyes and arms. So he dresses them up*. Soon they are ready to play!

First stop* is the playground*. There are two snowmen on the teeter-totter*， one on the swings*， and one sliding* down the slide!

譯文：他的三個新朋友需要眼睛和手臂，所以他給他們打扮了一番。很快他們就可以去玩了！/第一站是游樂場。有兩個雪人在玩蹺蹺板，一個雪人在蕩秋千，還有一個在滑滑梯！

What luck*! Someone left their sled*. “I’m going first!” says the big snowman. “Me next， me next!” says the little snowman.

The next morning， when the children wake up* and go to the window to say hello to their snowman， they can hardly* believe* their eyes! Now there are FOUR snowmen in the yard*!

譯文：真幸運！有人把雪橇落在這兒了。“我第一個坐！”大雪人說。“我第二個，我第二個！”小雪人說。/第二天早上，當孩子們醒來，走到窗口要向雪人問好時，他們幾乎不敢相信自己的眼睛！現在院子里竟有四個雪人！

The children rush* outside* and start dressing* their new snowman friends. There must be magic in the air today!

譯文：孩子們奔跑到外面，開始給他們的新雪人朋友打扮起來。今天，空氣中一定彌漫著魔法的氣息！

星彩：琪琪，你已經一動不動地盯著外面那個雪人很久了，有什么好看的呢？

琪琪：噓，別吵！我在看一個雪人怎么變成四個雪人。

樂天：暈，琪琪又看故事看得走火入魔了。上次她看完《白雪公主》，硬是把我當成小矮人。我很納悶，她怎么就不

把我當成王子呢？

星彩：你就知足吧。她沒把你當成老巫婆就已經不錯了。

琪琪：對了，我要考考你們。下面這些跟雪有關的東西，你們知道用英語怎么說嗎？來連連看吧！
