我家养了一头又高又大的老水牛,它的头上长着一对弯弯的大角,一双又明又亮的大眼睛,灰黑色的瞳仁能照出人的影子来。它全身灰色,皮很厚,毛很稀,那两只大耳朵和长长的尾巴,赶起蚊蝇来更是有趣儿。
My family raised a tall and big old buffalo. On its head, there are a pair of big curved horns, big bright eyes, and grey black pupils that can reflect people's shadow. Its whole body is gray, its skin is thick and its hair is thin. Those two big ears and long tail make it more interesting to drive mosquitoes and flies.
夏天,老水牛爱在水里洗澡。它在水里闭着眼睛,喘着粗气,那样子就好像在水塘里睡着了似的,还不时地甩动着那条粗长的尾巴,扇动着那两只肥大的耳朵驱赶着蚊蝇。这时,它仿佛在对我说:“小主人,瞧我多舒服。”我用绳子打了它一下,它生气似的晃动一下身体,把水塘中的泥水弄了我一身。这下,我更生气了,狠狠地用细荆条抽它,它好像很后悔似的说:“我的小主人,我错了。对不起,请原谅,以后我再也不敢了。”我只好放下“武器”,爱怜地看着它。
In summer, the old buffalo likes to bathe in the water. It closed its eyes and gasped heavily in the water, as if it had fallen asleep in the pond, and occasionally swung its long and thick tail and fanned its big ears to drive away mosquitoes and flies. At this time, it seemed to say to me, "little master, look how comfortable I am." I hit him with a rope, and he shook his body angrily, which made me covered with mud and water in the pond. Now, I was even more angry. I smoked it with a thin piece of thorns. It seemed to regret saying, "my little master, I'm wrong. I'm sorry, please forgive me. I'll never dare to do it again. " I had to lay down my weapon and look at it fondly.
老水牛最喜欢吃的是青草。一来到青草地,它就津津有味地吃起来,还不时地抬起头来看看我,仿佛在对我说:“真好吃,真好吃。”它吃饱了,就一动不动地躺在小塘里休息。
The old buffalo's favorite food is grass. As soon as he came to the green grassland, he began to eat with relish and looked up at me from time to time, as if to say to me, "it's delicious, it's delicious." When he was full, he lay still in the small pond to rest.
老水牛的脾气不好,它爱和别的牛打架。如果别的牛靠近它,它就会两眼瞪得圆圆的,两只耳朵竖立着,尾巴紧紧夹起来,头低低垂下,一步一步地逼过去,用坚硬的角猛顶过去!你别看老水牛平时很温驯,但在这时,它完全像一头猛虎!
The old buffalo has a bad temper. He likes to fight with other cows. If other cattle get close to it, they will stare round, their ears stand upright, their tails are tightly clamped, their heads are lowered, they will press forward step by step, and they will use hard horns to push them forward! You don't think the old buffalo is very gentle at ordinary times, but at this time, it's just like a tiger!
点评:从老水牛的外形入手,描写了它的角、眼睛、瞳仁、颜色、皮毛、耳朵、嘴巴,接着介绍它的习性:夏天爱在水塘里洗澡、用耳朵驱赶蚊蝇、喜欢吃青草、还爱和别的牛打架。运用拟人的手法,想象老水的语言,使文章活泼主动。
Comments: starting from the appearance of the old buffalo, this paper describes its horns, eyes, pupils, color, fur, ears and mouth, and then introduces its habits: in summer, it likes to bathe in the pond, drive away mosquitoes and flies with its ears, like to eat grass, and love to fight with other cattle. Use the anthropomorphic technique to imagine the language of Laoshui and make the article lively and active.
