Early autumn in the pumpkin garden, there came seven wide mice escaping from a big and terrifying cat. They rushed into green vines and leaves aplenty with big and round pumpkins.
南瓜园的初秋,跑进了七只野老鼠,他们正在逃避一只可怕的大猫。他们冲进了层层叠叠的绿色南瓜藤和南瓜叶,上面正结满了又大又圆的南瓜。
The prideful cat hunted around like a chicken with its head cut off in vain and finally left in dismay.
高傲的猫就像无头苍蝇一样四处寻找但一无所获,最后只好灰溜溜地走了。
“Hooray, we are safe now!”
“万岁,我们现在安全了!”
When they came out, they were deeply attracted. The giant pumpkin leaves were as huge as the lotus leaves while the pumpkins were orange through a summer’s sunlight.
当他们出来时,被眼前的情景给深深地吸引了。大南瓜叶像荷叶一般大,而南瓜经过一个夏天的日照已呈金黄色。
The smallest mouse’s nose jutted out and got very close to a pumpkin. He smelled with a smile:
最小的一只老鼠伸出了鼻子,非常近地靠近一只南瓜,他闻了一下便笑了:
“Great, it’s sweat! It must be the biggest pumpkin I’ve ever seen. I am hungry now. I guess it must be better in my belly!”
“太棒了,好甜呀!这肯定是我见过的最大的南瓜了!我饿了,我猜它呆在我肚子里会比较好!”

“逃跑消耗能量!”
They rushed to the pumpkin and bit holes with their shape teeth. They ate, ate and ate not only the delicious meat but also the seed. Finally they stopped eating and felt good for their full and round bellies.
他们冲到那只南瓜前,用锋利的牙齿咬开洞洞。他们吃啊,吃啊,吃啊,不仅品尝了美味的南瓜肉还有可口的南瓜籽。最后,他们的肚子变得滚圆滚圆才心满意足地作罢!
Then they burped and climbed out of the pumpkin. When they saw their great work, they all laughed:
他们打着饱嗝从南瓜里爬出来,当看见自己伟大的作品时全都笑了:
“Aha, look, the pumpkin has holes here and there!”
“啊哈,看呀,这南瓜已经千疮百孔了!”
The smallest mouse suddenly had a good idea and shouted:
“Why not roll it as a pumpkin cart. It must be very interesting!”
最小的老鼠突然有了一个好主意便叫道:
“为什么不把它滚起来就像南瓜车一样,这肯定非常有趣!”
Other six mice all agreed:
“Just do it!”
另外的六只老鼠附和道:
“想做就做!”
Then they all entered the pumpkin shell and pushed it ahead forcefully:
