But the teacher cried 可是老师哭了

The six-year-old John was terribly spoiled. His father knew it, but his grandma doted on him. He hardly left her side. And when he wanted anything, he either cried or threw a temper tantrum. Then came his first day of school, his first day away from his grandmother's loving arms.

六岁的约翰娇生惯养。他的父亲知道这一点，可他的祖父母仍然宠着他。这孩子几乎寸步不离他的祖母。他想要什么不是哭，就是闹。他第一天上学才离开祖母的怀抱。

When he came home from school his grandma met him at the door.Was school all right? she asked, Did you get along all right? did you cry?

约翰放学了，他奶奶在门口接他并问道：学校怎么样？你过的好吗？哭了没有？

Cry? John asked. No, I didn't cry, but the teacher did!

哭？约翰问，不，我没哭，可老师哭了。

知识点讲解:

1.spoiled

被宠坏了,一般都有点负面的色彩,最好别用它形容你的朋友

eg:Not so much wayward as that spoiled child.

与其说是任性，倒不如说是被宠坏的孩子。

2.temper tantrum

temper:性情，脾气；tantrum：突然爆发，在口语中也可以表示发脾气。

eg:How can a store throw a temper tantrum?

一个商店怎么可能会发脾气。
