One warm afternoon,
一個暖和的下午,
Fern and Avery put on bathing suits and went down to the brook for a swim.
弗恩和艾弗里穿上泳衣到下面的小河去游泳。
Wilbur tagged along at Fern's heels.
威爾伯緊跟著
When she waded into the brook, Wilbur waded in with her.
下了水。
He found the water quite cold - too cold for his liking.
它覺得水很涼——涼得它受不了。
So while the children swam and played and splashed water at each other,
因此,當兩個朋友游泳、玩耍、用水你潑我我潑你時,
Wilbur amused himself in the mud along the edge of the brook,
威爾伯就待在河邊的爛泥里自得其樂,
where it was warm and moist and delightfully sticky and oozy.
爛泥暖和,濕嗒嗒的,黏黏糊糊,舒服極了。
Every day was a happy day,
天天這樣,白天快快活活,
and every night was peaceful.
夜里安安靜靜。
