"Which is best？" said Kipper

to himself. "Christmas Day？

excited to decide，he just whcoped，

and went charging down the slope

towards the wood.

It was Christmas Eve and

" A$ O6 o) n" G0 U$ g- a& W

he was looking for a Christmas

“哪个最好呢？”Kipper自言自语的说：

9 v7 O- k6 \& I' a
6 _6 j: {5 E% k. m! w

“圣诞节？还是平安夜？”

- @* z  T- X5 _1 F! }; u  F2 s

他爬到大山的山顶上，然后停了下来：

" Q2 P. H! k9 ]7 I' }+ X2 n

“礼物？还是期盼礼物的心情？”

然后，他越想越兴奋，

于是他大喊着从山坡上一路跑到了

! _3 B) T- |; U$ K+ S1 [

山脚下的小树林。

% K" f* G4 W* \1 o6 o

这天是平安夜，Kipper要去小树林里

找一棵圣诞树带回家呢。

In the middle of the

1 q) O; l2 X. Q& Q4 c  z

wood was a little fir tree.

& T( Y& v; g& A/ H4 j, k2 W; V

"That's the one！" said Kipper.

He dug away the snow with

his spade. Then he grabbed the

tree and pulled. It wouldn't come.

He pushed it，shook it，twisted

and lifted it. Then he looped his

scarf around it，

and heaved，

1 O3 @( M' L/ W' M9 q8 b3 r! X6 _

and heaved，

and heaved，

until ...

树林中央，有一棵小小的冷杉树。

& k( J! z/ b- Y+ H% ]7 }

“就是这棵了。”Kipper说。

3 D( h- v. m" X' a; n8 a

Kipper用小铲子把树下的雪都铲开，

然后他抓住这棵树，用力的拉。

可是，小树，一动也不动。

他又试着推它，摇晃它，拔起它。

最后，他把自己的围巾绕在树上，

然后用力的拖啊，拖啊，拖啊，终于……

"I wonder what Father Christmas

as he dragged the tree home.

This year，as every year，Kipper

couldn't think what sort of present

said Kipper.

“不知道圣诞老人会送

什么样的礼物给我呢？”Kipper在把

这棵冷杉拖回家的路上，想着。

( V, w; N# R2 Z& L% A  ]+ y

今年，Kipper还是和往年一样，

想不出自己想要什么样的礼物。“

7 @5 Q+ L0 T+ G% Z

希望当我看到它的时候，

( i  I. v% a( p, r* j( ~$ e

能想到自己想要什么。”Kipper说。

* ?# L. @6 a; K6 q- }4 p

He was still thinking

about presents when he

saw Pig and his little cousin

2 i9 C7 k6 r0 K3 Z3 ~: H, C. c4 F

Arnold coming over the hill.

% o8 D, R  {0 z2 h* i0 D( ~

Kipper正想着他的礼物呢，

Pig和他的表弟Arnold也来到了山上。

"Hello Kipper！" said Pig.

6 \- o: m) u* L* O0 k8 e- ~/ Y

"Do you want a hand with that？"

! ^" t) b! ~; B' M

Pig tied his own scarf to the

fir tree and together they heaved

  A! N, V. ^: F; N
4 \! c2 v) i, V) l2 }

it up the slope，while Arnold

toddled along behind，

sucking his thumb.

He was pointing at something

& N/ m, [, X* ~

in the tree. But Kipper and Pig

$ y# D4 {: A6 _. G! \  L
- x8 T0 Z( P" L5 O. e

were too busy talking

about presents to notice.

  |- r3 q$ Y/ @$ d$ w6 Y

“你好，Kipper！”Pig说：“需要帮忙么？”

1 n4 f1 s+ Q+ d4 G8 K( i

Pig把自己的围巾也系在了冷杉上，

! h& V% h" `( D2 M9 p

然后和Kipper一起把冷杉拉上山坡。

Arnold正吮着他的拇指

摇摇晃晃的跟在后面。

( j; q" f, i. H! v! v3 l
/ C, Y- B  s; i% Z" l8 n

他指着树上的什么东西，

" h/ g. ^7 o& W2 L* ~- V9 H* y, G

可是Kipper和Pig正忙着讨论礼物，没注意到。

At Kipper's house they stood the

: ]2 h+ c( J3 K" z3 ~" }
9 M& m2 ]) z# q8 O% S

tree in a bucket. Arnold peered

into the branches，walking round and

( T2 \2 n" O- i* R: E) k' _8 |
1 S+ Y9 `# L4 u9 }( Q

round the tree，until he bumped into

a pile of Christmas presents.

5 s& K7 t; e5 k9 i( G% U. U

One of them had a label with his

name on it. "Happy Christmas，Arnold.

3 z4 B+ X9 i* i

"You mustn't open that until

tomorrow！" said Pig.

! F% \- `7 Z5 f+ t' y

But he already had.

4 l+ |6 @- |% ]( ?# F

回到Kipper家，他们把冷杉立在一个桶里。

+ X8 {3 S: O2 q& S0 j
  D  [8 I% ^  `

Arnold在树枝里看来看去，

绕着冷杉转啊转，最后跳进了一堆礼物里。

3 P! Q9 U/ G) X" j- S, e: B

其中有一个礼物上的小纸条上面

2 l; a6 g5 P8 z, Z1 @9 y- V

写着Arnold的名字。

' h( c- Q$ P8 o* z3 j, F" {: }
2 }# `. J3 R1 X4 Z6 M

纸条上写着：“圣诞快乐，Arnold！

爱你的Kipper。”

( Y, Q+ {3 v+ `& E4 B1 Y" B5 H$ y) n+ i

“你要等到明天才可以拆开礼物！”Pig说。

% r5 I/ e! ?* I

可是，Arnold已经打开了他的礼物。

Kipper's present to Arnold was

a reindeer hat.

"The red nose lights up！" said Kipper

- @3 r- G+ N; W+ U& T% c4 ^

enthusiasically. "And it flashed too！"

) O- F" \) k  F' k1 Q* e

But then his face fell.

He had forgotten to

' E4 c2 w9 T7 X" {

buy the batteries.

$ X0 ~0 c& t2 c+ u7 `: z
3 a( ~# z1 ?# r0 d- w

Arnold didn't mind.

- s( G# u' D* K7 D5 F# F

He loved his hat，

: S- r, d' S; `3 M

even without its battery

( f+ b/ [- p# s- c5 E8 |
2 G! K, f5 K; j* s4 V

operated flashing red nose.

3 P9 G. F5 E* u, W( W
& g, K( W$ h, N3 y

Kipper送给Arnold的礼物

4 G4 C- r, Q8 L8 t  w, B) q, J

是一顶驯鹿的帽子。“

5 L: G4 I- ^: j! j' n8 [, ~

这个红色的鼻子是可以发光的，”

. ^, n2 ]/ I% ~

Kipper热情的说：“还可以一闪一闪的。”

! u% }2 a5 w/ g* s6 @1 v8 G3 W

然后，他脸色暗下来了，

因为他忘记买电池了。

6 P! g: e& u) U/ Z4 b" T

不过Arnold并不在意。

虽然没有电池，帽子上的鼻子就不会亮起来，

但他还是很爱这顶帽子

"That reminds me！" said Pig.

# t! W6 T' F, ?) j/ z9 e/ `

"I haven't wrapped up your

present yet！" So Pig went home，while

0 j7 ^% {5 \; m  W2 A

Arnold stayed with Kipper to help him

decorate the Christmas tree.

2 e# G% g. C0 k" v! d2 }  A- }

"What shall we put on top，Arnold？"

9 I, z+ e8 z4 r# L, g. }

said Kipper. "A snowman？Or a star？"

' d6 S$ d% y' c% ^4 Z2 T2 G

But Arnold didn't seem to be

7 e2 O( f. N9 ]$ n1 V
9 o# e5 R/ w& A9 N6 i

interested in the decorations.

“这提醒我了！”Pig说：

* C! a2 c; c5 ~$ Z0 k" {

“我还没包好给你们的礼物呢！”

0 `  I- q& w0 O" ]  L2 k7 @
+ s: [5 u6 E1 e5 Z5 O

所以Pig赶紧回家去包礼物了。

/ D. X. l2 H0 W: b* z" H5 g

Arnold则和Kipper一起开始装饰圣诞树了。

( G( ~9 }* ?7 t

“咱们应该把什么放在树顶上呢？”

* r$ t: `8 o( ^' i( N) D
" K' `* t3 x  u

Kipper问：“一个雪人？还是一颗星星？”

" {; V! A* e! q

可是Arnold好像对装饰圣诞树并不感兴趣。

2 c9 X2 z2 \- c' c: {& h

Arnold climbed on to the stool，

- w( J/ O4 k/ F( r

took off his hat，and plopped it

/ X5 r- [+ U& R3 c9 P

over the mouse.

The stool wobbled and fell over.

Arnold爬上一个凳子，拿下他的帽子，

4 U( v5 [  Z& O4 s8 H7 y

盖在一只小老鼠上。凳子晃了晃，然后倒了。

4 C4 _( u, S7 e# n% q
' @/ E8 |/ e2 U, s5 o

"Are you all right，Arnold？"

said Kipper. Arnold sat up

and pointed.

Kipper looked at the reindeer hat

sitting on top of the Chritmas tree.

# O3 W0 N6 o) w6 c2 @

"Clever old you！" he said to Arnold.

"It's just right！"

And so it was.

“你没事吧，Arnold？”Kipper问。

Arnold坐起来，指了指。

3 c. o; B3 d8 I& B2 @, x5 m. h

Kipper看到那个驯鹿帽子

戴在了圣诞树的树顶上。

4 l$ g3 P! i2 R+ @$ F) x+ G
7 V) B: T0 x8 a- U; Z

“你真聪明！”Kipper对Arnold说：

“这样真棒！”所以他们就用驯鹿帽子

来装饰圣诞树的树顶了。

门铃响了。是Tiger。

"It makes you wonder what's inside."

Pig也回来了。“不好意思，

Pig说，“我不太会包装东西。”

“我喜欢这样疙疙瘩瘩的礼物，”

Kipper说，“这会让我很想知道，

"Time to go home，" said Pig to

Arnold. Kipper took Arnold's hat

from the tree and gave it back to him.

Arnold looked inside. There was no mouse.
