概念點撥:
月兔的記載,首見于屈原的《天問》:“夜光何德,死而又育?厥利維何,而顧菟在腹。”在西漢初期的馬王堆一號漢墓帛畫中月上繪有蟾蜍和玉兔。劉向《五經通義》:“月中有兔與蟾蜍何?月,陰也;蟾蜍,陽也,而與兔并,明陰系于陽也。”
詞組點撥:

Three animals, in particular —the fox, the monkey, and the rabbit—were most sympathetic, and went into the forest to search for food for the men.

3.「跪下」- Fall On One's Knees
As the heaven shocked, the Jade Rabbit fell on its knees and confessed that it gave the extra pills to the Queen Mother of the West out of fear, and would therefore accept any punishment the emperor deemed.
當天庭震動,玉兔雙膝跪地,并坦承是它出于畏懼給了王母娘娘更多藥丸,因此將接受任何玉帝覺得它該受的懲罰。
4.「時常」- All The Time
I see. And we see them together all the time now.
我懂了。然后我們現在常常看他們在一起。
