踩影子

今天晚上，妈妈在接我画漫画回来的路上，我们玩起了踩影子的游戏。

This evening, my mother was on the way back from picking up my cartoon. We played the game of stepping on the shadow.

妈妈的影子总是变来变去的，一会儿在左边，一会儿在右边，一会儿跑到了前面，一会儿又逃到了后面，一会儿拉得很长很长，一会儿又变得很短很短，还会一下子变没了，然后一下子又跳出来，

My mother's shadow is always changing. It's on the left, on the right, on the front, on the back, long and long, short and short, and then it's gone, and then it jumps out,

它好调皮呀，不过我可有好办法对付它。长长的影子时，我就使劲叉开两条腿，正好就把妈妈的影子从头到脚都踩住了；短短的影子的时候，我就尽量靠着妈妈，这样就正好站在影子上；它快要到前面的时候，我会加速跑，赶在它的前面占领它的位置，它变到后面，我还会以不变应万变，等着它的到来。

It's so naughty, but I have a good way to deal with it. When there is a long shadow, I will try my best to spread my legs, just to step on my mother's shadow from head to foot; when there is a short shadow, I will try to lean against my mother, so that I will just stand on the shadow; when it is near the front, I will speed up running, catch up with its front to occupy its position, and when it changes to the back, I will respond to all changes and wait for its coming.

妈妈看我玩得起劲，就故意一会儿慢走，一会儿又快跑。这下，影子会一下子失踪了，一下子又调皮地出现在我想不到的地方。刚开始我根本踩不到，可是慢慢地我就找到了规律，只要灯光朝向哪里，影子就会跟着在那里出现，我就再也不会踩空了。妈妈也开心地大笑着，我们的笑声都留在了这条大路上。

My mother saw that I was playing hard, so she deliberately walked slowly for a while and ran fast for a while. This time, the shadow will disappear suddenly, and appear in a place I can't think of naughtily. At first, I couldn't step on it at all, but slowly I found the rule. As long as the light is towards where, the shadow will follow there, and I won't step on it again. Mother also laughed happily, our laughter all stayed on this road.

我和妈妈就这样，一路笑着、跑着回到了家，可是我又觉得刚刚一起玩游戏的是我的小伙伴，而不是我的妈妈。好奇怪，对吗？

My mother and I went home laughing and running all the way, but I thought it was my little friend, not my mother, who just played the game together. Curious, right?
