A toad saw a frog near the road. He was a fat old frog. He satand moaned and groaned.

一只癞蛤蟆在路边看到一只青蛙。那是只又胖又老的青蛙。他坐在那里呻吟叹息着。

The toad said, “Do not moan and groan, Mr. Frog. Hop like me.Hop down the road。”

癞蛤蟆说:“青蛙先生,不要呻吟叹息了。像我一样跳吧。沿着这条路跳。”

So the frog and the toad went down the road to a big oaktree。

“I am home,” said the toad. “Come in and I will make tea。”

But Mr. Frog said, in a deep croak, “I must not roam far fromhome. I will be off to my home near the pond。”

但青蛙用低沉的声音说:“我不能在离家远的地方闲逛,我要回我在池塘边上的家。”
