    像猪一样生活(2)
    听到这些徒弟很伤心(sad),但他同意(agree)照大师所说的去做。
    事情正和大师提到(mention)的一样。在他们的对话(conversation)之后不久,大师死了,四只猪仔出生了。有一天,徒弟握着(hold)他的刀,挑选(pick out)出脸上有记号的那只小猪。当他正要(be about to)杀掉它时,小猪突然(suddenly)开口说话:“住手!不要杀我!”小猪大喊道。
    徒弟非常吃惊(surprised),他听到小猪用人的声音(in a human voice)说:“别杀我!我想要当猪继续活下去。当我要求你杀我时,我并不知道猪的生活将是什么样。猪的生活很棒(great)!就让我活下去吧。”
    十二. Greenland and Iceland
    Greenland is thelargestislandonearth. It is in the north of Europe. Near Greenland is another island. It is small. Its name is Iceland. Do you think that Greenland is green and warm?Do you think that Iceland is white with ice?If you do, you are wrong. Not many people live on the big island of Greenland. There are more people in your hometownthanin all of Greenland. That is because Greenland is not green. Greenland is white. Mostof Greenlandiscoveredwithlots of ice. The ice covering Greenland is higher than some of the world's buildings.WhataboutIceland? Is it colder than Greenland? No, it is not. Iceland has ice, but notsomuchiceasGreenland. Iceland has a Lot of hot springs(温泉). They give out hot water and steam (蒸汽). So it is notascoldasGreenland. And there are a lot more people who live in Iceland.

    格林兰岛与冰岛
    格林兰岛是世界上(on earth)最大的岛屿(largest island)。它位于欧洲(Europe)的北部(north)。在格林兰岛的附近有另外一个岛。这个岛很小。它的名字叫冰岛。你认为格林兰岛是绿色(green)、温暖的(warm)吗?你认为冰岛是冰(ice)覆盖的白色(white)岛屿吗?如果你这样想,你就错了。格林兰岛上没有很多人居住。你家乡(hometown)的人会比(than)整个格林兰岛的居民都多。那是因为格林兰岛不是绿色的,它是白色的。格林兰岛的大部分(most)覆盖着(be covered with)很多冰。覆盖格林兰岛的冰比这个世界上的一些建筑物(building)还要高。冰岛怎样呢(what about Iceland)?它比格林兰岛还要冷(cold)吗?不,不是的。冰岛有冰,但不像格林兰岛那么多的冰(not so much ice as Greenland)。冰岛有很多温泉。这些温泉放出(give out)热水和蒸汽,因此冰岛不像格林兰岛那样冷(not as cold as Greenland)。而且冰岛的居民远远多于格林兰岛。
