Charlotte’s Web｜夏洛的网

原著作者｜E B White The farm was quiet in the early morning Mist slowly moved along the ground Inside the pigpen a newborn pig struggled to stand and fell down again The man looked at it shook his head and said this kind of pig would not live The axe was already raised when a little girl suddenly stood in front of him She said it has not had a chance yet She held the pig in her arms and felt how light it was She gave it a name Wilbur Wilbur survived in a wooden box between milk and straw growing little by little But before summer was over he was sent to another farm That place was bigger and much lonelier At night Wilbur lay in the pigpen and heard the animals talking softly for the first time They said a pigs fate is decided from the day it is born Wilburs breathing grew fast and he understood he was only kept for a while Fear made the night very long Just then a thin and calm voice came from above It was a gray spider resting quietly at the center of her web She said my name is Charlotte She listened to Wilburs fear she did not say the world would be better and she did not say fate was a lie She only told him I will save you The next morning something strange appeared on the farm Above the pigpen the spider web shone in the sunlight with clear words written on it Some Pig People stopped read the web again and again and then looked down at Wilbur They began to talk to hesitate and to see the pig in a new way Night came again Charlotte kept working She moved back and forth in the air pulling out new threads The web changed again and again and new words appeared Terrific Radiant Humble Each word carried Wilbur farther from death On the day of the fair Wilbur was taken away and became the center of the crowd Charlotte stayed in the corner and finished her last weaving She laid her egg sac and trusted it to Wilbur Then she never woke up again Wilbur lived but he lost his friend Spring came and the little spiders were born Most of them floated away with the wind only a few stayed on the farm Wilbur slowly grew old and the farm changed its shape But the web that once held words the friendship given at the cost of a lifetime remained in this world前往小宇宙评论区与主播互动
