【英文有聲繪本】大紅穀倉《Big Red Barn》

2021-03-01 天空樹

今天分享的繪本名字叫《Big Red Barn》,繪本的作者是瑪格麗特·懷斯·布朗,說到這個名字可能不太熟悉,但經常陪孩子讀繪本的家長對她的另外兩部作品《Goodnight Moon (晚安,月亮)和The Runaway Bunny (逃家小兔)》肯定不會陌生,都是世界經典繪本中的精品。

瑪格麗特是一位才華橫溢的女作家,她的這部《Big Red Barn》以優美清新的圖畫,簡潔平和的文字以及朗朗上口的韻律,充滿的濃濃的生活化氣息,營造出一種美好詩意的氛圍,是一本非常適合靜謐夜晚,陪著孩子甜甜入睡的故事書。

By the big red barn

In the great green field.

在那綠綠的田野上,有一座大紅穀倉。

There was a pink pig

Who was learning to squeal.

There was a great big horse

And a very little horse.

有一隻粉色的小豬

正在練習尖叫。

有一匹大大的馬

和一匹小小的馬。

And on every barn

Is a weather vane, of course-

A golden flying horse.

當然,每個穀倉,都有一個風向標

大紅穀倉是一匹金色的飛馬。

There was big pile of hay

And a little pile of hay,

And that is where the children play.

But in this story the children are away.

Only the animals are here today.

有一大堆乾草,和一小堆乾草。

那是孩子們玩耍的地方。

但是在這個故事裡,孩子們到別處去了。

今天只有動物們在。

The sheep and the donkey,

The geese and the goats,

Were making funny noises.

Down in their throats.

And old scarecrow

Was leaning on his hoe.

And a field mouse was born.

綿羊,驢。

鵝,山羊。

從喉嚨發出有趣的聲音。

一個上了年紀的稻草人斜倚著鋤頭站立。

一直田鼠出生了……

In a field of corn.

在一片玉米地裡。

Cock-a-doodle dooooo!

In the barn there was rooster

And a pigeon, too

And a big white hen

Standing on one leg.

And under the hen

Was a quiet egg.

喔喔喔!

穀倉裡有隻公雞。

還有隻鴿子

一隻大白母雞單腿站立

身下一枚還沒孵化的蛋。

There was bantam rooster

And a little bantam hen

With a big clutch of eggs.

Count them. There are ten.

Cock-a-doodle-doo!

Moooooo! Moo!

There was a big brown cow

And a little brown cow.

有一隻矮腳公雞和一隻矮腳母雞。

以及一大窩蛋。數一數,有十個。

喔-喔-喔!哞·哞·哞!

有一頭棕色的大母牛和一頭棕色的小牛。

There was an old black cat,

Meow! Meow!

And a tiger tomcat,

Yeow! Yeow!

There was a big red dog,

Bow! Wow!

With some little puppy dogs

All round and warm.

有一隻黑色的老貓,

喵喵!

和一隻虎紋公貓,

喵嗚!喵嗚!

有一隻大紅狗。

汪汪!

和幾隻小狗圍在一起好暖和。

And they all lived together

In the big red barn

And they played all day

In the grass and in the hay

它們一起住在這座紅色的大穀倉裡。

它們終日嬉戲,在草地上,在乾草堆裡。

When the sun went down

In the great green field,

The big cow lowed

The little pig squealed

The horses stomped in the sweet warm hay,

And the little donkey gave one last bray.

當太陽落山,餘暉略過那片草地

大母牛低吟,小豬尖叫。

馬兒在甜甜溫暖的乾草上跺著蹄。

小驢發出最後一聲嘶鳴。

The hens were sleeping on their nests.

Even the roosters took a rest.

The little black bats flew away

Out of the barn at the end of the day

母雞們都在窩裡睡著了

連公雞們都休息了。

一群黑色的小蝙蝠飛走了,在一天結束的時候離開穀倉。

And there they were all night long

Sound asleep

動物們整夜安睡

In the big red barn.

在紅色大穀倉。

Only the mice were left to play,

Rustling and squeaking in the hay.

While the moon sailed high.

只有田鼠在玩耍,乾草堆裡吱吱。

此時月亮懸在空中。

In the dark night sky.

在黑色的夜空中。

小樹媽說:

英語啟蒙的重要性,相信不用小樹媽反覆嘮叨,媽媽們也都會深刻了解,小樹媽的平臺上也曾經分享過不少有關的文章。

但無論什麼方法都繞不開多聽,多看,多用,有了一定量的積累,英文能力才有可能達到質的飛躍。

在小樹媽的經驗中,英文繪本的閱讀和學習,既不深奧又不枯燥,對孩子啟蒙階段的英語學習是極有好處的。

所以今天開始,小樹媽會在咱們平臺上每天給朋友們準備一段英文繪本,這些繪本都是在世界範圍內廣為流傳的經典之作,很多在國內沒有出版,但對培養孩子英語語感卻非常有幫助的。每天讓孩子抽出10多分鐘,堅持一段時間,相信你一定能發現孩子們的進步!

另外,朋友們如果有什麼相關的意見或建議,也歡迎給小樹媽留言。
