Lesson 2　Bubbles　第2課　吹泡泡

beauti ful porch rainbow burst bubbling same biggest sneeze colors

main soap wash red many

The boys have come out on the porch to blow bubbles. The old cat is asleep on the mat by the door.

"Ha！ha！"laughs Robert, as a bubble comes down softly on the old cat's back, and does not burst.

Willie tries to make his bubble do the same. This time it comes down on the cat's face, and makes her sneeze.

"She would rather wash her face without soap，"says Harry."Now let us see who can make the biggest bubble."

"Mine is the biggest，"says Robert."See how high it foats in the air！I can see-ah！it has burst."

"I can see the house and the trees and the sky in mine，"says Willie；"and such beautiful colors."

"How many, Willie?"

"Red, one；blue, two；there-they are all out. Let us try again."

"I know how many colors there are，"says Harry."Just as many as there are in the rainbow."

"Do you know how many that is?"

男孩子們來到走廊上吹泡泡。老貓正在門邊的墊子上睡覺。

“哈！哈！”羅伯特笑了起來，他看見一個泡泡緩緩地落在老貓的背上，而且沒有破。

威利也想學著那樣做。這一次，泡泡落在了貓的臉上，還讓它打了個噴嚏。

“它不用肥皂就可以洗臉，”哈里說，“現在讓我們比一比誰吹的泡泡最大。”

“我的最大，”羅伯特說，“看！它在空中飛得多高啊！我能看見——啊！它破了。”

“在我的泡泡里，我能看見房子、樹和天空，”威利說，“還有那些漂亮的顏色。”

“威利，有多少種顏色？”

“紅色，藍色，還有……太多了，我們再試一次吧。”

“我知道有多少種顏色，”哈里說，“就和彩虹的顏色一樣多。”

“那你知道究竟有多少種嗎？”
