The only true failure can come if you quit. 放弃，才会带来真正的失败， 希望每个孩子都记得。 先看动画视频吧~ 先读为快 Rosie Revere, Engineer《罗西想当个工程师》 This is the story of Rosie Revere, who dreamed of becoming a great engineer. In Lila Greer’s classroom at Blue River Creek, young Roise sat shyly, not daring to speak. 这是罗西·雷维尔希望成为一个伟大的工程师的故事。在蓝河溪，有一个学校，在里面莉拉·格雷尔的班级里，年轻的罗西安静地坐着，不敢大声讲话。 But when no one saw her, she peeked in thetrash for treasures to add to her engineer’s stash. And late, late at night,Roise rolled up her sleeves and built in her hideaway under the eaves. 然而当无人关注她时，罗西就到垃圾堆里寻宝，为自己的工程师宝藏库添点儿什么。到了深夜，罗西就卷起袖子，在屋檐下修建她的秘密。 Alone in her attic, the moon high above,dear Roise made gadgets and gizmos she loved. And when she grew sleepy, she hidher machines far under the bed, where they’d never be seen. 在阁楼上，伴着天空中的月亮，亲爱的罗西做起了她喜欢的小玩意儿。当她长大了，就把制造出来的小机器放在床底下，它们永远不会被别人发现。 When Roise was young, she had not been so shy. She worked with her hair swooping over one eye and made fine inventions for uncles and aunts: a hot dog dispense and helium pants. 当罗西长大后，她不再那么容易害羞。她总是让头发盖着一只眼睛，为叔叔阿姨们制造有趣的发明：一个既像热狗又像裤子的氢气球。 The uncle she loved most was Zookeeper Fred. She made him a hat(to keep snakes off his head) from parts of a fan and some cheddar cheese spray-which everyone knows the pythons away. 罗西最喜欢的一个叔叔是一名动物园管理员，名字叫弗雷德。她给这位叔叔做了一顶帽子（好让蛇不太容易爬上弗雷德叔叔的头上）。罗西用扇子和搅拌机的一部分做了那顶帽子，就是为了防止大蟒蛇过来。 And when it was finished, young Roise was proud, but Fred slapped his knee and he chuckled out loud. He laughed till he wheezed and his eyes filled with tears, all to the horror of Roise Revere, who stood there embarrassed, perplexed, and dismayed. She looked at the cheese hat and then looked away. “ I love it, “ Fred hooted. “Oh, truly I do.” But Roise Reverse knew that could not be true. She stuck the cheese hat on the back of her shelf and after that day kept her dreams to herself. 当罗西做完了之后，她感到很自豪，但弗雷德叔叔一边拍着膝盖，一边笑个不停。笑得根本停不下来，眼泪都出来了，这对罗西来说太恐怖了，她站在那里，极为尴尬、极为困惑、极为沮丧。她看着奶酪帽子，望向远方。“我喜欢它，”弗雷德叔叔说道。“我真的很喜欢它。”但是罗西知道弗雷德叔叔说的是安慰人的话。她把奶酪帽子塞到架子上，自从那天起，她就不再向他人说起自己的梦想。 And that’s how it went until one autumn day. Her oldest relation showed up for a stay. Her great-great-aunt Rose was a true dynamo who’d worked building airplanes a long time ago. She told Rosie tales of the things she had done and goals she had checked off her list one byone. She gave a sad smile as she looked to thesky: The only thrill left on my list is to fly! But time never lingers as long as it seems. I’ll chalk that one up to an old lady’s dreams.” 这件事就这样过去了，直到一个秋天，罗西还沉浸在过去的打击中，她最崇拜的萝丝阿姨，曾经在飞机发电机制造工厂里工作。她告诉罗西自己的故事，自己设定目标，逐一检查完成。 萝丝阿姨露出了悲伤的微笑，她望向天空：唯一能让我激动的就是飞行！但逝者如斯夫，不舍昼夜，时间这把杀猪刀会摧毁一个老太太的梦想。” That night, as Rosie lay wide-eyed in bed,a daring idea crept into her head. Could she build a gizmo to help her auntfly? She looked at the cheese hat and smile, “No, not I.” But questions are tricky, and some hold on tight, and this one kept Rosie awake through the night. So when dawn approached and red streaks lit the sky, young Rosie knew just how to make her fly. 那天晚上，罗西躺在床上，一直睁着眼睛，突然脑海中浮现出了一个很棒的主意。她是否能制造一个小玩意儿，帮助萝丝阿姨圆一个飞行梦？她看着那顶奶酪帽子，笑了笑，“哦，不，不是我！” 但是问题很棘手，有些拿捏不准，想到这些，罗西整晚睡不着。当晨曦微露，红霞出来，年轻的罗西想到了怎样帮助萝丝阿姨飞行的方法。
She worked and she worked till the day was half gone, then hauled her cheese-copter out onto the lawn to give her invention a test to see the ridiculous flop it might turn out to be. 说干就干，罗西一头扎进去，不知不觉中，半天过去了，不经意间把奶酪直升机放到了草坪上，这给了她发明一个检验的机会：看看这项愚蠢的发明究竟能不能化腐朽为神奇。
Strapped into the cockpit, she flipped onthe switch. The heli-o-cheese-copter sputtered and twitched. It floated amoment and whirled round and round, then froze for a heart beat and crashed to the ground. 罗西把自己固定在驾驶舱内，扭转开关，这辆奶酪直升机开始转动，在空中飘了一会儿，螺旋桨最终打结了，坠落到地面上。
Then Rosie heard laughter and turned round to see the old woman laughing and slapping her knee. She laughed till she wheezed and her eyes filled with tears all to the horror of Rosie Revere, who thought, Oh, no! Never! Not ever again will I try to build something to sputteror spin or build with a lever, a switch, or a gear. And never will I be a great engineer.” 罗西听到一阵笑声，她转过头看到一位老妇人拍着腿大笑，笑得都喘不上气来，眼泪都出来了，这些在罗西看来太恐怖了，她想：“哦，不！不！我永远不会再尝试用杠杆、开关或齿轮来建造物体，我永远不会变成一个伟大的工程师。
She turned round to leave, but then Great-great-Aunt Rose grabbed hold of young Rosie and pulled her in close and hugged her and kissed her and started to cry. “You did it! Hooray! It’s the perfect first try! This great flop is over. It’s time for the next!” young Rosie was baffled,embarrassed, perplexed. Didn’t you see it? The cheese-copter crashed.”” Yes!”said her great aunt. “It crashed. That is true. But first it did just what itneeded to do. Before it crashed, Rosie…before that…it flew!” 罗西想要离开，但萝丝阿姨抓住年轻的罗西，抱着并亲吻她，有点激动。“你做的很好！太好了！是很完美的开始，这次失败了，下次再接再厉！”年轻的罗西有点困惑、有点尴尬。”您没看到吗？奶酪直升机坠毁了。””是的，我看见了！”萝丝阿姨说，“但在这之前，我看到它真的飞了起来，真的……飞了起来！”
“Your brilliant first flop was a raging success! Come on, let’s get busy and on to the next!” she handed a notebook to Rosie Revere, who smiled at her aunt as it all became clear. Life might have its failures, but this was not it. The only true failure can come if you quit. “你第一次试飞就这样成功！加油，为下次成功而努力！”她给了罗西一个笔记本，而罗西因为阿姨的一句话重展笑颜。生活中都有可能遭遇失败，但失败不是生活的全部。如果你放弃了，那就是完完全全的失败。 They worked till the sun sneaked away toits bed. Aunt Rose tied her headscarf around Rosie’s head and sent her to sleepwith a smile ear-to-ear to dream the bold dreams of a great engineer. 她们一直工作，直到太阳落了山。萝丝阿姨给罗西带了一顶头巾，让她入睡，在她耳畔，祝福好梦，勇敢实现伟大的工程师梦想。
At Blue River Creek all the kids in grade two build gizmos and gadgets and doohickeys too. With each perfect failure,they all stand and cheer, but some quite as proudly as Rosie Revere. 在蓝河溪，而年轻所有的小朋友们都在做各种各样的小玩意儿。每一次完美的失败，众人都站起来欢呼，但是没有人像罗西那样自豪。 《读读》跟着绘本读英文 每天一起读一本英文绘本 音频、视频 全方位阅读 有趣、有用、有成长 让孩子从小学好英文 让你和孩子有更美好的亲子时光 |
