Poor Alice sits down and begins to cry. “Stop this moment!” she says to herself. “Stop crying!” Soon there is a large pool round her. In a minute her foot slips and... Splash! She is in salt water. At first she thinks that it is the sea. Then she realizes that she is in the pool of her own tears! Then she hears something splashing in the pool near her. Alice is afraid. Is it a walrus? Then she sees that it is only a mouse. She says, “Excuse me, do you know the way out of this pool?” The Mouse looks at Alice but it does not say anything. “Perhaps it does not speak English,” Alice thinks. “Perhaps it is a French mouse.” So she begins again in French: “Ou est ma chatte?” It means in English: Where is my cat? Suddenly the Mouse leaps out of the water. “Oh, I am sorry!” cries Alice hastily. “You do not like cats.” Words - Слова poor [риэ] - бедный; begin [bi'gin] - начинать; large [la:d3] 133 |
