2019年小學(xué)英語晨讀練習(xí)：《青蛙王子》

　　旁白：Once upon a time， there was a king and his beautiful daughters. Their castle was very close to a large forest.One hot summer day， the youngest princess went into the forest to play her favourite toy， a little golden ball. She liked throwing it to the sky and then caught it. Suddenly the ball fell off and rolled into the spring. The princess was very sad when she heard a voice：

　　青蛙：What’s the matter， little girl？

　　旁白：The princess stood up and looked around.

　　公主：Who is there？

　　青蛙：Down here.

　　公主：It’s only you. I am looking for my ball.

　　青蛙：Hmmm... I can help you look for it.

　　公主：Really？

　　青蛙：But what will you do for me in return？

　　公主：I can give you all kinds of beautiful things.

　　青蛙：But I have a better idea. I want to be your best friend and share everything with you. Have dinner with you， sleep next to you...

　　旁白：The princess felt so strange to hear this. But she had to agree to the frog’s demands because she loved her ball so much.

　　The frog jumped into the spring and found the ball near the bottom. Then he rolled it to the princess.

　　青蛙：Here is your ball， dear princess.

　　旁白：The princess picked it up and ran away. The frog couldn’t catch up with her.

　　青蛙：Wait for me！

　　旁白：The next day， the frog came to the castle and knocked on the door. The young princess opened the door but found nobody there.

　　青蛙：Down here！

　　旁白：As soon as the young princess saw the frog， she shut the door suddenly. She began to cry and told the king about the things happened yesterday.

　　國王：Well， what’s wrong with that？ Bring in the frog！

　　公主：No， father. I don’t want to have him be my companion. What will I do？

　　旁白：At this time， the frog knocked the door again.

　　青蛙：Princess， have you so easily forgotten the promise you made to me？

　　國王：My dear daughter， you have made a promise. Open the door and let the frog come in.

　　旁白：The princess walked to the door and opened it. From then on， she had to keep her words and shared everything with the frog. One day， the princess dropped the frog on the ground carelessly. Then the frog hit the ground and stopped moving.

　　公主： Oh dear. What have I done？ I’m so sorry， frog.

　　旁白：The princess bent down and kissed the frog. Suddenly the frog was gone. A handsome prince lay on the ground.

　　王子： You did it. My dear princess. You broke the curse. I’m finally free.

　　旁白：The princess was very happy and fell in love with the prince.
