　　——馬克·吐溫

　　We had the sky up there, all speckled with stars, and we used to lay on our backs and lookup at them, and discuss about whether they were made or only just happened. Jim allowed theywere made, but I allowed they happened. I judged it would have taken too long to make somany. Jim said the moon couldn’t laid them; well, that looked kind of reasonable, so I didn'tsay nothing against it, because I've seen a frog lay most as many, so of course it could bedone. We used to watch the stars that fell, too, and see them streak down. Jim allowed they'dgot spoiled and was hove out of the nest.

　　我們頭頂就是天空，布滿了閃閃的星星。我們常常躺(在木筏上)，看著夜空中的星星，并且討論它們是造出來的還是偶然冒出來的。吉姆說他認(rèn)為星星是造出來的，但我認(rèn)為星星是偶然冒出來的。我想如果要造那么多星星，得花費(fèi)相當(dāng)長的時間。吉姆說月亮可以把它們生出來，而這個說法似乎很有道理，所以我就不再反駁他了，因?yàn)槲以娺^青蛙一次下的仔兒，也差不多有這么多，所以月亮當(dāng)然也能下出那么多的星星來。我們還常?？茨切┑粝聛淼男切?，看著它們劃出一道亮光落下去。吉姆認(rèn)為它們是變壞了，所以才被趕出了自己的窩。
