Once upon a time, there was a beautiful island. The south bank of the island was always summer, and the north shore was always winter. A happy hamster family lived in the south sand bank, under the root of a very big coconut tree. This family was made up of father, mother and daughter. The daughter was called Cheese, because she had cheese colored fur.
One morning, Cheese said to her parents “dear mum and dad, I’m old enough. I’d like to travel around the island.”
“Well, have a nice trip and we'll miss you." Replied her parents.
Cheese started off with a light heart. She bounced through the path between the coconut trees. At the corner of the path, a mouse with a backpack nearly hit her, It was Brown, a mouse who loved to play the harmonica.
“Sorry, Cheese.” Brown said “If you don’t mind, could you tell me where are you going in such a hurry ? ”
“I’m going to travel around the island.”Cheese answered.
“I’m going to go to north shore of the island, Since we are heading for the same direction, why don’t we go together?”
“Good idea, the train leaves in 25 minutes, hurry up!” They both ran and caught the train on time.
When the train began to move, the broadcast on the train announced:"Dear passengers, welcome aboard. The train will stop at the four sites, respectively: summer, autumn, winter and spring, each site for 24 hours. The next stop is autumn. The train runs round the island and you can get on any train in the loop within a week. Wish you have a pleasant journey.”
“Oh, it’s great! I have never seen red maple leaves and white snowflakes.” Cheese was very excited:” we can play for at least one day in every season.”
“Yes, you are right!” Brown said. They sat down near the window, looking at the sea in the distance, the hills on the side of the rails, the small villages in the field. The train sped along, and time flew by.
On the second day, the train arrived at the autumn platform. Cheese and Brown got off the train. They climbed mountains, watched red leaves, drank spring water and ate pine nuts. What a happy day! As the sun went down, they returned to the train.
On the third day,A voice echoed through the train:” We are sorry to inform you that the train will be delayed until five days later, because of heavy snow ahead and the damaged road. Dear passengers, you can take the return train back to the summer, or you can continue to wait. Remember, if you choose to go to winter, please bring plenty of food due to food is in short supply there.
Cheese and Brown were all dying to go to winter. So they gone to collect nuts, berries, corn. They had been working hard for 4 days. On the last day of autumn, Cheese still worked hard, but Brown didn't do anything .
“why aren’t you working, Brown?” Cheese asked him.
“Oh, sure I am.” Brown told her,” I’m collecting the sunshine and colours for the cold , dark winter.’’
On the eighth day, they finally got on the train. Cheese was so tired that soon fell asleep.
When she woke up on Next morning, she saw a new world, a silvery and silent world. Everything was covered with crystal snow. White snowflakes danced in the sky.
"Let's get going, I’ve got two Snowboards”." cried Brown eagerly.
It was a wonderful trip. The two friends were sliding along the path of the woods, and the beautiful scenery around them. When they stopped to rest, Cheese said, "I wish I could take this morning, put it in my pocket, and keep it forever."
"Me too," Brown said admiringly. "I’d like to seize the moment."
But in the evening, it began to rain heavily. The spectacular snow scene was gone.
" Oh, no! I can't believe." Cheese frowned. "It’s cold and dark."
Suddenly, she remembered something and asked, “Could you show me what you collected for the winter?”
“Ok.” said Brown,“ Close your eyes, here is my sunshine and colours for the cold dark winter.” Brown began to tell his friend some stories: the rolling golden wheat , the singing of the birds, the laughter of the companions. Finally, he began to play the harmonica, When the music rang in the ears, It seemed that the first ray of sunlight shone upon them. Cheese felt warmer and warmer .
She smiled heartly , “That’s really amazing! Thank you! I’ve learned something from you” Said Cheese.
“Yes, there’re gloomy days, but If there is sunshine in the heart, it is spring everywhere.” she mused.
Time passed. Brown decided to stay there longer and collect the winter stories. Cheese planed to continue her journey. They said goodbye to each other.
Cheese set off again, towards lovely spring.
仓鼠之旅
sunnie
从前,有一座美丽的小岛。岛的南岸始终是夏天,北岸则总是冬天。小仓鼠一家幸福地生活在南沙洲的一颗巨大的椰子树洞里面。仓鼠一家有爸爸、妈妈和女儿。女儿名字叫奶酪,因为她有着奶酪色的绒毛。
一天早上,奶酪对她的父母说:“亲爱的爸爸妈妈,我已经足够大了。我想去环岛旅行。”
“好吧,祝你旅途愉快,我们会想你的。”她的父母回答说。
奶酪怀着轻快的心情出发了。她蹦蹦跳跳穿过椰子树之间的小径。在小径的拐角处,一只背着背包的老鼠差点撞到她,原来是布朗,一只爱吹口琴的老鼠。
“对不起,奶酪,”布朗说,“如果你不介意的话,能告诉我,你这么匆忙是去哪儿呢?
“我要去环岛旅行。”
“我要去岛的北岸,既然我们要去同一个方向,为什么不结伴而行呢?”
“好主意,火车25分钟后离开,快点!”他们俩一齐跑起来,正好赶上火车。
当火车开动时,车上的广播响起:“亲爱的乘客,欢迎乘坐本次列车。列车将停靠在四个站点,分别为:夏、秋、冬、春,每个站点停留24小时。下一站是秋天。火车在岛上环线行驶,你可以在一周内乘坐任何一辆环线火车。祝您旅途愉快。”
“哦,太棒了!我从来没有见过红叶和雪花,” 奶酪非常激动:“我们在每个季节至少可以玩一天。”
“是的,没错!”布朗说。他们坐在窗边,凝视着远处的大海,铁轨边的小山,田野里的小村庄。火车飞驰而过,时间飞逝。
第二天,火车到达了秋季站台。奶酪和布朗下了火车。他们爬山,看红叶,喝泉水,吃松子。多么快乐的一天!太阳下山时,他们回到火车上。
第三天,火车上的广播宣布:“我们很抱歉地通知您,火车将推迟到五天后出发,因为前方大雪导致道路损坏。各位乘客,您可以乘坐返程列车回到夏季,您也可以继续等待。切记,如果您选择去冬天,请带上足够的食物,因为那里的食物供应短缺。
奶酪和布朗都非常渴望去冬天。所以他们就去收集食物: 坚果,浆果,玉米。他们辛苦工作了四天。在秋天的最后一天,奶酪仍然努力工作,但布朗没有做任何事情。
“你为什么不工作,布朗?”奶酪问他。
“噢,我在工作呀。”布朗对她说,“我在为寒冷黑暗的冬天收集阳光和色彩.”
第八天,他们终于上了火车。奶酪太累了,很快就睡着了。
当她第二天早上醒来时,看到了一个崭新的世界,一片银色的寂静的世界。一切都被晶莹的白雪覆盖着。白色的雪花漫天飞舞。
“我们快去玩吧,我带了两个滑雪板”。”布朗急切地喊道。
这是一次美妙的旅程。两个朋友沿着林间的小路滑着雪,周围美丽的景色环绕着他们。当他们停下来休息时,奶酪说:“真希望能把今天早上的美好时光放进我的口袋里,永远珍藏。”
“我也是,”布朗赞同地说。”我想抓住这一刻。”
可是到了傍晚,开始下起了大雨。壮观的雪景消失了。
“哦,不!我简直不敢相信,“奶酪皱着眉头。“现在又冷又黑。”
突然,她想起了一件事,问道:“布朗,能告诉我,你为冬天收集了什么呢?”
“好的,”布朗说,“闭上你的眼睛,这是我为寒冷黑暗的冬天收集的阳光和色彩。”布朗开始给他的朋友讲故事:翻滚的金色麦浪,小鸟儿的歌声,伙伴们的笑声。最后,他开始演奏口琴,当音乐在耳边响起时,仿佛清晨的第一缕阳光照耀在他们身上。奶酪觉得越来越温暖。
她发自内心地微笑,“太神奇啦!谢谢你!我从你身上学到了某些东西。”
“是的,会有阴郁的日子,但是如果心中有阳光,那么处处都是春天。”她沉思着。
时光流逝。布朗决定在那儿多呆一阵儿,收集冬天的故事。奶酪打算继续她的旅程。他们告别了彼此。
奶酪再次踏上旅程,向着可爱的春天。
