(单词翻译:双击或拖选)

  1、传说,有一只鸟,长着九个头。            
Long, long ago, there was a bird that had nine heads.

2、这只鸟一得到食物,九个头都过来争抢。
When the bird got some food, the nine heads all came immediately to scramble for it.

3、九个头“呀”“呀”地叫着,都用嘴咬住食物不放。
 They cried loudly, gripping the food with their beaks. 
  
4、九个头互相咬出了血,羽毛乱飞,还是没有把食物咽到肚子里。
All the while the bird couldn’t swallow anything, despite the fact that its nine heads pecked each other to blood and its feathers fluttered in the air.

5、一只野鸭看见了,耻笑它们说:“九张嘴吃食物,都是吃进一个肚子,你们为什么要互相争抢呢?”
A wild duck saw this and mocked them, “All you nine heads tried to do is make food into one stomach, but why do you scramble for it?”
