Well,you know,of course,that most people used to break their boiled eggs at the larger end.
哦,你當然知道,大多數(shù)人過去習慣于從煮蛋的大的一端打破。
But our King's grandfather once cut a finger while breaking his egg this way,and so his father the King ordered all Lilliputians,from then on,to break the smaller end of their eggs.
而我們國王的祖父有一次這樣打蛋時弄傷了手指,所以國王的父王下令所有的利力浦特人從那以后從小的一端打破蛋。
People who do that are called Small Endians.
那樣做的人稱作小端派。
But Lilliputians feel strongly about this and some Big-Endians have fought angrily against this law.
可是利力浦特人強烈反對這一點,有些大端派人憤怒地反抗這項法令。
As many as eleven thousand people have been killed because they refused to break their eggs at the smaller end.
多達1.1萬人因為拒絕從小的一端打蛋而被處死。
Some of the Big-Endians have escaped to join our enemies in Blefuscu.
有些大端派人逃脫加入了我們在不來夫斯古的敵人一邊。
The King of Blefuscu has always wanted to defeat Lilliput in war,and now we hear that he's prepared a large number of ships,which will attack us very soon.
不來夫斯古的國王早就想在戰(zhàn)爭中打敗利力浦特,而現(xiàn)在我們聽說他已經(jīng)準備了大量的戰(zhàn)船,不久就要進攻我們。
So you see,my friend,how much our King needs your help,in order to defeat his enemies.
所以,你看,我的朋友,為了打敗他的敵人,我們的國王多么需要你的幫助。
I did not hesitate for a moment.Please tell the King,I answered warmly,that l am ready to give my life to save him or his country.
我一點也沒猶豫。請轉(zhuǎn)告國王,我熱情地回答,為了救他和他的國家我寧愿犧牲生命。
