今天與大家分享的是《小王子》經(jīng)典故事。
- we are warned as to the dangers of the baobabs
As each day passed I would learn, in our talk, something about the little prince's planet, his departure from it, his journey. The information would come very slowly, as it might chance to fall from his thoughts. It was in this way that I heard, on the third day, about the catastrophe of the baobabs.
This time, once more, I had the sheep to thank for it. For the little prince asked me abruptly-- as if seized by a grave doubt-- "It is true, isn't it, that sheep eat little bushes?"
"Yes, that is true."
"Ah! I am glad!"
I did not understand why it was so important that sheep should eat little bushes. But the little prince added:
"Then it follows that they also eat baobabs?"
I pointed out to the little prince that baobabs were not little bushes, but, on the contrary, trees as big as castles; and that even if he took a whole herd of elephants away with him, the herd would not eat up one single baobab.
The idea of the herd of elephants made the little prince laugh.
"We would have to put them one on top of the other," he said.

But he made a wise comment:
"Before they grow so big, the baobabs start out by being little."
"That is strictly correct," I said. "But why do you want the sheep to eat the little baobabs?"
He answered me at once, "Oh, come, come!", as if he were speaking of something that was self-evident. And I was obliged to make a great mental effort to solve this problem, without any assistance.
Indeed, as I learned, there were on the planet where the little prince lived-- as on all planets-- good plants and bad plants. In consequence, there were good seeds from good plants, and bad seeds from bad plants. But seeds are invisible. They sleep deep in the heart of the earth's darkness, until some one among them is seized with the desire to awaken. Then this little seed will stretch itself and begin-- timidly at first-- to push a charming little sprig inoffensively upward toward the sun. If it is only a sprout of radish or the sprig of a rose-bush, one would let it grow wherever it might wish. But when it is a bad plant, one must destroy it as soon as possible, the very first instant that one recognizes it.
Now there were some terrible seeds on the planet that was the home of the little prince; and these were the seeds of the baobab. The soil of that planet was infested with them. A baobab is something you will never, never be able to get rid of if you attend to it too late. It spreads over the entire planet. It bores clear through it with its roots. And if the planet is too small, and the baobabs are too many, they split it in pieces…

每天我都了解到一些關(guān)于小王子的星球，他的出走和旅行等事情。這些都是 偶然從各種反應(yīng)中慢慢得到的。就這樣，第三天我就了解到關(guān)于猴面包樹的悲劇。
這一次又是因?yàn)檠虻氖虑?，突然小王子好象是非常?dān)心地問我道：
“羊吃小灌木，這是真的嗎？”
“是的，是真的?！?br />“啊，我真高興?！?br />我不明白羊吃小灌木這件事為什么如此重要?？尚⊥踝佑终f道：
“因此，它們也吃猴面包樹羅？”
我對小王子說，猴面包樹可不是小灌木，而是象教堂那么大的大樹；即便是 帶回一群大象，也啃不了一棵猴面包樹。
一群大象這種想法使小王子發(fā)笑：
“那可得把這些大象一只疊一只地壘起來?！?br />他很有見識地說：
“猴面包樹在長大之前，開始也是小小的?！?br />“不錯?？墒菫槭裁茨阆虢心愕难蛉コ孕『锩姘鼧淠兀俊?br />他回答我道：“唉！這還用說！”似乎這是不言而喻的?？墒俏易约阂M(fèi)很 大的心勁才能弄懂這個問題。
原來，在小王子的星球上就象其他所有星球上一樣，有好草和壞草；因此， 也就有益草的草籽和毒草的草籽，可是草籽是看不見的。它們沉睡在泥土里，直到其中的一粒忽然想要蘇醒過來……于是它就伸展開身子，開始靦腆地朝著太陽長 出一棵秀麗可愛的小嫩苗。如果是小蘿卜或是玫瑰的嫩苗，就讓它去自由地生長。如果是一棵壞苗，一旦被辨認(rèn)出來，就應(yīng)該馬上把它拔掉。因?yàn)樵谛⊥踝拥男乔?上，有些非?？膳碌姆N子……這就是猴面包樹的種子。在那里的泥土里，這種種子多得成災(zāi)。而一棵猴面包樹苗，假如你拔得太遲，就再也無法把它清除掉。它就 會盤踞整個星球。它的樹根能把星球鉆透，如果星球很小，而猴面包樹很多，它就把整個星球搞得支離破碎。
