Aladdin and the magic lamp
Long ago, a poor tailor
lived in a small village. He lived with his wife
and boy, Aladdin.
Aladdin didn't like
to work hard. He liked to play in the streets. He
never learned to do
useful things. This
made his father very angry.
很久以前，
某个小村庄里，
有一位贫穷的裁缝师。
他和妻儿住在一起，<
/p>
儿子叫做阿拉丁。
阿拉丁不喜欢努力干活，
反而喜欢在街上玩耍。
他从不学些正经的事，
这点让他父亲非
常生
气。
The tailor
worked very hard. One day, he felt very ill, and
the next day, he died. Aladdin
and his
mother had almost no money. How would the family
live? Aladdin had no job, so
his mother
was very upset with him.
裁缝师工作得很卖力。有一天，
他觉
得身体很不舒服，隔天他就过世了。阿拉丁和他的
母亲没什么钱。这个家要怎么过下去呢
？阿拉丁没有工作，因此他的母亲对他又气又担心。
One
day, a strange man came to the village. He was a
magician from the western desert.
Aladdin was playing in the street. The
magician saw the boy and walked up to him.
有一天，
一个陌生男子来到了村庄，
他是来自
西边沙漠的一位魔术师。
阿拉丁那时正在
街上玩耍，魔术师看到
了阿拉丁，便走上前去。
“
你是裁缝师幕斯塔法的儿子吗？<
/p>
”
他问阿拉丁。
“
是的，我就是，
”
阿拉丁回答。
“
但我父亲已经过世了。
”
The magician said that he was
Aladdin's uncle. He was returning to the village
after many
years away. Aladdin took the
magician to his house. There, the magician gave
some fruit
and wine to Aladdin's
mother
.
, but I never
knew him,
or shoes or
clothing. Then you will have money.
魔术师说他是阿拉丁的叔叔，
他在离开村庄多年之后，
现在回来了。
阿拉
丁把魔术师带
回家里。回到家时，魔术师送阿拉丁的妈妈一些水果和酒。
“
这是真的，幕斯塔法真的有一个弟弟，但我从不认识他，
”
阿拉丁的妈妈说道。
“
我丈
夫什么都没留给我们，阿拉丁也没有工作。
”
“
我想要
帮助你儿子，
”
魔术师说。
“
我会帮他开一间店，他可以卖水果、鞋子或是衣服，
这样你们就会有钱了
。
”
That evening,
the magician took Aladdin to the market. There, he
bought the boy some
nice clothes. Then,
he took Aladdin around the village. He told
Aladdin interesting stories
about his
travels. Aladdin felt very curious about his new
uncle.
当晚，
魔术师便带着阿拉丁到市集去。在那里，他买了几件好衣服给阿拉丁，<
/p>
然后又带
着他逛了一下村庄。
他跟阿拉丁
讲了一些他旅游时发生的趣事，
阿拉丁对这位刚认识的叔叔
感到
很好奇。
The next day, the
magician took Aladdin outside of the village. They
walked for a long time,
and Aladdin
began to feel tired. They stopped in a garden to
rest. The magician had some
cake, and
gave half to Aladdin.
is a special
place I want you to see.
第二天，魔术师带着阿拉丁到了村外。他们走了很久，阿拉丁
开始觉得累了。
他们在一
座花园停下来休息，魔术师有一些蛋糕
，分了一半给阿拉丁。
“
我们还要走多远？
”
阿拉丁问道。
“
我好累，我
想回家了。
”
“
有点耐心吧！
小子，
”
魔术师回答。
“
我要带你到山里去，
有个特别的地方要给你看看。
”
The magician and Aladdin
walked into the mountains. Suddenly, the magician
stopped, and
looked around. There was
nobody there. He told Aladdin to find some wood.
He wanted to
make a fire. Aladdin
picked up some sticks, and put them down in a
pile. The magician
made a fire, and
then he threw some powder on it.
魔术师和阿拉丁走到山中。
突然间，
魔术师停下了脚步，
往四周看了看，
并没有发现任
何人。
于是他要阿拉丁去找些木头来，
他想要生火。
阿拉丁捡了些树枝来，
把它们放成一
堆。
魔术师生了火，接着在火上面洒了一些粉末。
Poof! The ground shook, and they saw a
square stone in the ground. Aladdin felt scared.
He wanted to run away. The magician put
his hand on Aladdin's arm.
do as I tell
you, you will be rich and happy.
碰！整个地面摇了一下，接着他们
看到地上出现一块方形的石头。
阿拉丁很害怕，
他想
要逃走。魔术师把手放在阿拉丁的肩膀上。
“
不要害
怕，
”
他告诉阿拉丁。
“
在这块石头下面有个很棒的东西。你若照我的话做，就
会变得富有又快乐。<
/p>
”
The magician
told Aladdin to pull up the stone. Under it, there
was a deep, dark hole.
There were many
stone steps going down to the bottom. The magician
put a special ring
on Aladdin's
finger
. Alone, Aladdin went down the
steps. At the bottom, he saw a garden.
In
the
middle
of
the
garden
was
a
table,
and
on
the
table
was
a
lamp.
The
magician
wanted this lamp.
魔术师
要阿拉丁把石头搬起来。
石头下方有个又深又黑的洞，
里头有很
多石阶可以通往
洞的最底端。魔术师把一枚特殊的戒指套在阿拉丁的手指上。
阿拉丁独自走下阶梯。在阶
梯底端，
他看到了一座花园，
花园中间摆了一张桌子，
桌上
有一盏灯，
魔术师就是要这盏灯。
Aladdin poured the oil out of the lamp.
Then he returned to the steps. The magician heard
him coming.
,
Uncle,
come up the steps...
阿拉丁把灯里的油倒出来，接着返
回阶梯处，魔术师听到他来了。
他告诉阿拉丁说：
“
停在那里，把灯丢给我。
”
阿拉丁说：
“
叔叔，您太远了，我不想把灯摔坏。等我爬上阶梯再说
……
。
”
The
magician got very angry. He threw some more powder
on the fire, and the stone rolled
on
top of the hole. Suddenly, everything around
Aladdin was dark.
that
hole!
魔术师非常生气，他在火堆上洒了更多的粉末，石头就滚到了洞口上方。突然间，
阿
拉
丁的四周暗了下来。
“
笨蛋！
”
魔术师大叫。
“
你没照着我的话去做！现在就要你死在洞里！
”
The magician was not Aladdin's uncle.
He was an evil man. The lamp would make him rich
and powerful. He couldn't go into the
hole to get the lamp. He needed Aladdin to do it.
He
was going to take the lamp and kill
Aladdin!
魔术师并不是阿拉丁的叔叔，
他是一个邪恶的人。
这盏灯会让他致富而且更有法力。
因
为他没办法自己进洞里去拿
那盏灯，
所以需要阿拉丁帮他。
魔术师准备在拿到了这盏灯后就
杀掉阿拉丁！
Aladdin
cried for one whole day. He thought he was going
to die in that dark place. Then,
he
remembered the ring on his finger
. He
took it off and rubbed it. Poof! A strange man
was flying in front of Aladdin. It was
a genie.
阿拉丁喊了一整天。
他以为他会死在这个黑漆漆的地方，
这时，
他想到了他手指上的那
枚戒指。
他取下戒指把它摩擦了一下。
碰！
一个奇怪的男子飞
到阿拉丁的面前，
是一个精灵。
精灵问道：
“
你需要我吗？
”
“
请带我
离开这个地方，
”
阿拉丁回答。
“
我想要回家。
”
The genie clapped his hands two times.
The stone over the hole moved, and Aladdin could
see light. He picked up the lamp and
walked up the steps. Aladdin felt very hungry, but
he
had no food. He would have to sell
his lamp.
精灵拍了手两下，
洞口上面的那块石头便移动了，
阿拉丁看见了光，
他拿起灯走上阶梯。
他觉得很饿，但却没有
东西吃，所以他必须卖掉他那盏灯。
The
lamp
was
very
dirty.
Nobody
would
buy
a
dirty
lamp.
Aladdin
wiped
off
the
dirt.
Suddenly, a cloud came out of the lamp.
Another genie was flying in front of him.
You can ask me to do
anything.
那盏灯非常脏，
而脏兮兮的灯谁也不会想买。
于是阿拉丁就把上面的灰尘拍掉。
突然间，
一阵烟从灯里面冒出
来，另一个精灵飞到他的面前。
“
谢谢您把我从洞里拯救出来，
”
精灵说。
“
我会
成为您的仆人，
您可以要求我做任何事。
”
“
我肚子饿了，
”
阿拉丁说。
“
你可以给我一点吃的东西吗？
”
The genie flew away. In a few
moments, he came back. He was carrying a large
basket.
The basket was full of tasty
dishes. It smelled wonderful. Aladdin ate the food
quickly. Now,
he felt very happy. He
could give his mother food and money. She would be
proud of him!
精灵飞走了，过了一会儿又飞回来，
手里还提着一个大篮子。<
/p>
这篮子装满了美食，
闻起
来香喷喷的。阿
拉丁很快就把菜吃光。他现在好快乐，因为他可以供给母亲食物和金钱，她
会以他为荣的
！
Aladdin and his mother
lived well for a long time. If they needed
something, the genie gave
it to them.
Aladdin became a handsome young man. His mother
wanted him to get married.
.
grandchildren soon.
阿拉丁和母亲过了一段很长的优渥
生活，
他们要什么，
精灵就会给他们什么。
阿拉丁成
了一位英俊的少年。现在，母亲认为他该结婚了。
“
你什么时候才要结婚啊？
”
他的母亲问道。
“
我已经老了，快生几个孙子给我抱抱吧。
”
One day, Aladdin was
walking on the street. Behind him, he heard the
sound of many
camels.
He
was curious, so he
turned
around. It was
the
sultan's
men.
