I bought this book "Little Prince" from China-Pub, which contains three Chinese and English French versions. Unfortunately, the pages 4th, 5, 8, and 9 in the Chinese part are not printed due to printing reasons. It is too troublesome to mail them back for replacement. simply translate the pages that are missing. I copied it to the blank page of the book and posted my name. Haha, I just created it. This is to say that bad things are a good thing!


Chapter 2 (part 2) of the little prince)

As a result, when no one could really talk to me, the next person lived the day until six years ago when I got stuck in the desert due to an airplane accident. What's wrong with my airplane engine. I have neither a mechanic nor a passenger around me. I can only rely on myself to do my best to complete the difficult maintenance work. This is a matter of life and death for me: my drinking water may not last for a week. On the first night, I fell asleep in the sand, and there was a thousand miles from where humans lived. I am more lonely than the sailors who have fallen from a ship and escaped from a raft. So you can imagine how surprised I was when the sun rose and I was awakened by a strange, tiny sound. The voice said:
"Could you please -- show me a lamb ?"
"What !"
"Draw me a lamb !"
I jumped up and was completely scared. I opened my eyes and inspected the surroundings carefully. I saw a very strange little guy standing there and looking at me very seriously. Later, you will see the best image I have drawn for him, but it is no doubt that my portrait is much inferior to his own charming and lovely.
However, it's not my fault. When I was six years old, the adults had completely destroyed the confidence of me as a painter, and I did not learn to draw anything except the "external view" and "cut view.
Now, I was surprised to stare at the sudden appearance of the uninvited guest, and it seems that I want to stare out my eyes. Remember, I crashed into a desert one thousand miles away from the crowd. In addition, my children do not seem to be lost in the sand, nor have they become dizzy due to fatigue, hunger, or fear. There was no indication that he was abandoned in the desert one thousand miles away from humans. When I finally spoke, I said to him:
"But what are you doing here ?"
As a response, he repeats it slowly as if he was talking about a significant thing:
"If you can, please draw a lamb for me ......"
When a person encounters a mysterious force that is too powerful, he does not dare to obey. Just as absurd as I was in danger of death one thousand miles away from humans, I took out a piece of paper and a pen from my pocket. But then I remembered how my learning had been concentrated on geography, history, arithmetic, and grammar. I had to tell the tough guy that I didn't know how to draw.
......

Some of the Chinese translations at the end of this chapter are normal, so I will not be able to work much.
