Unit 12 A Chicken to A Library
第12单元 小鸡上图书馆
A chicken walks into a library. He goes to the front counter and says, "Buck". The librarian thinks this is very cute. She says, "Oh, aren't you cute. You want a book." So, she gives the chicken a book and he goes away.
有只小鸡走进图书馆，到服务台叫了一声：“呱。”图书管理员觉得小鸡好可爱，说道：“哇，你好可爱哦，要书是吗？”于是她拿了一本书给小鸡，小鸡拿了书就走了。
The next day the same chicken comes back to the library. He goes to the front counter and says, "Buck, buck." The librarian is impressed.
第二天，小鸡又回到图书馆，仍然跑到前面柜台叫着：“呱、呱。”图书管理员一副佩服不已的表情说道：
“You already read the first book I gave you and now you want two more books. What a smart chicken you are.” And she gives the chicken two more books.
“我给你的第一本书已经读完了啊，现在居然还要再拿两本书，好聪明的小鸡哦。”她又拿两本书给这只小鸡。
The chicken returns to the library yet another day, goes up to the front counter and says, "Buck, buck, buck." The library is becoming very curious. She gives the chicken three books and this time she follows him to see where he goes.
小鸡没过几天又回到图书馆，直接跳上前面柜台叫道：“呱、呱、呱。”图书管理员很好奇，这回拿了三本给小鸡后，便跟踪它看看它要去哪里。
The chicken brings the books to the pond, where she sees a frog. He gives the books to the frog and he says, "Read it, read it."
小鸡带着书来到池塘，图书管理员看到那里有一只青蛙。小鸡把书拿给青蛙时，青蛙说道：“咧滴，咧滴。”
(注：buck 在这里是指小鸡发出的声音，和 book 发音相似；青蛙发出的声音，音似英文的 read it)
