One winter morning Peter woke up and looked out the window.
Snow had fallen during the night.
It covered everything as far as he could see.
一个冬天的早晨，彼得醒来，望着窗外。
昨天夜里下了一场雪。
他一眼望去，到处都被雪盖住了。
After breakfast he put on his snowsuit and ran outside.
The snow was piled up very high along the street to make a path for walking.
吃完早餐，他穿上防雪衣，跑到屋子外面。
路的两旁，雪堆得高高的，只空出一条可以走的路。
Crunch, crunch, crunch, his feet sank into the snow.
He walked with his toes pointing out, like this:
He walked with his toes pointing in, like that:
咯吱，咯吱，咯吱，每走一步，他的脚都深陷进雪里。
他走路时一下子脚趾往外走，就像这样：
一下子又脚趾朝内走，就像那样：
Then he dragged his feet s-l-o-w-l-y to make tracks.
And he found something sticking out of the snow that, made a new track.
然后他拖着脚慢慢地，在雪地里划线。
他发现雪地里露出一样东西，拿它划出了一条新的线。
It was a stick — a stick that was just right for smacking a snow-covered tree.
哦，是一根树枝——树枝正好可以用来拍打树上的雪。
Down fell the snow — plop! — on top of Peter's head.
雪掉下来——啪！掉在彼得的头上。
He thought it would be fun to join the big boys in their snowball fight,
but he knew he wasn't old enough — not yet.
他觉得和大哥哥们打雪仗一定会很好玩，但他知道自己还不够大。
So he made a smiling snowman, and he made angels.
于是，他做了一个微笑的雪人，又做了一个天使。
He pretended he was a mountain-climber.
He climbed up a great big tall heaping mountain of snow – and slid all the way down.
他假装他是一位登山者。
他爬上了一座又高又大的堆成了山的雪。
再一路滑到山脚下。
He picked up a handful of snow — and another, and still another.
He packed it round and firm and put the snowball in his pocket for tomorrow. Then he went into his warm house.
He told his mother all about his adventures while she took off his wet socks.
他抓起了一把雪——一把，再一把。
他把雪压成圆圆硬硬的雪球放进口袋里，留着明天再玩。
然后他回到温暖的家里。
妈妈帮他脱下湿袜子，他把他做的那些好玩的事告诉妈妈。
And he thought and thought and thought about them.
他一直想，一直想着那些好玩的事。
Before he got into bed he looked in his pocket.
His pocket was empty. The snowball wasn't there. He felt very sad.
上床前，他摸了一下他的口袋。
口袋里空空的。雪球不见了。他好伤心。
While he slept, he dreamed that the sun had melted all the snow away.
But when he woke up his dream was gone.
The snow was still everywhere. New snow was falling!
他睡着了，他梦见太阳把所有的雪都融化了。
不过，他一醒来，梦就不见了。
到处都是雪，新的雪还不停地下着！
After breakfast he called to his friend from across the hall,
and they went out together into the deep, deep snow.
吃完早餐，他去找住在对面的朋友。
他们一起跑进深深的雪地里。
