小王子。

Chapter 1。

第一章。

Once when I was six years old I saw a magnificent picture in a book, called True Stories from Nature, about the primeval forest.有一次，我六岁的时候，在一本叫做『自然界的真实故事』的书里看到一副绝妙的插图，那是一座原始森林的景象。

It was a picture of a boa constrictor in the act of swallowing an animal. Here is a copy of the drawing.画中有一条蟒蛇正在吞食一只动物，下面是该画的摹本。

I must confess that at first sight this presentation of the whole process shocked me a little.诚然，乍一看，这个展示整个过程的画面有点令我震惊。

And yet.. one knows that this is only a drawing and that the tiger-cat has no worry about being swallowed alive.但是......当你知道这只是一副画，而老虎猫并不会真的被活活吞下去。

But, after doing a little reflection, I felt a little ashamed of having been shocked。

只要你进行一点思考，我就觉得为自己受到震惊而感到有点羞愧。

for there is nothing unbelievable in this story。

因为这件事并不太奇怪。

especially since the world is full of foolish people.尤其是在这个充满了愚蠢人的世界里。

第六章说小王子看日落，回想起与小王子的美好时光。

《小王子》是法国当代一部有名的童话——法国作家圣一埃克絮佩里“为大人们写的童话故事”。

但也受到小读者的喜爱。

作者在献辞里写道：“献给莱昂·韦尔特请孩子们原谅，我把这本书献给了一个大人。

我这样做有三个重要的理由，其一是：这个大人是我在人世间最要好的朋友；其二是：这个大人什么都能明白，就连那些给孩子们写的书都能看懂；其三是：这个大人居住在法国，在那里他饥寒交迫，急需得到安慰。

如果所有这些理由仍嫌不足的话，那么我愿把这本书献给长成了大人的从前那个孩子。

所有的大人原先都是孩子（但他们中只有少数人记得这点）。

所以，我把我的献词改为：献给童年时代的莱昂·韦尔特”。

The narrator decides to give up drawing and becomes a pilot.Chapter 2: The narrator's plane crashes in the Sahara Desert, leaving him stranded. He tries to fix his plane, but realizes that he only has a limited amount of water left. Just when he was about to give up hope, he is approached by a little prince who asks him to draw a sheep.Chapter 3: The narrator reluctantly tries to draw a sheep, but fails multiple times. Eventually, he draws a box and tells the little prince that the sheep is inside. Surprisingly, the little prince is satisfied with the drawing and believes that the sheep is inside the box.Chapter 4: The little prince talks about his home planet, Asteroid B-612, where he takes care of a special rose.

He realizes that his rose was not as unique as he thought, and feels hurt, thinking that he wasted his time caring for something common.

The switchman tells the little prince about the traveler's quest for happiness, and how they constantly move without truly knowing what they are searching for.

小王子1-3章读后感

Judging a person is of course not by his statements, but by his actions, not by what he claims to be, but by what he does and what he actually is.同学互助一起进步（页眉可删）小王子1-3章读后感小王子1-3章读后感1我最爱的一本书是《小王子》。

我对着日落发呆，遂想起小王子的B612小星球。

于是不知在什么时候又将它翻出来看了一遍又一遍，一遍又一遍。

那时的我对《小王子》甚至看不太清逻辑和情节，再到了后来我对《小王子》的痴念让我讶异。

这莫非就是“书翻百边，其义自现”的道理么，那些每每想起都忍不住鼻酸的对话简单之极，却满是日落般那股淡淡的忧愁。

玫瑰，狐狸，飞行员，小王子，还有猴面包树和沙漠间的无名小花在我心里扎根，不知什么时候发现自己有了一本最爱的书。

“驯养”、“常规”这些朴素的字眼在其中都被予作者特别的理解。

如果你不愿意被驯养，而且铁定不改，那你可以微笑着看，把它当成童话故事书，想象自己是国王。

这样就请你不要寄望从它身上找到丝毫快乐的答案。

如果你愿意被驯养，那么你可以躺在沙漠里看，和“被你驯养”或“驯养你的人”一起看，和它作真正的朋友，看穿箱子后面的秘密。

不论一切都需要常规，而我们从其中获得报酬，“有了惦记”是其中最甜蜜的一个：一个人一旦让自己被人驯养后，就必须承担一点哭泣的风险……“要是一个人看着一朵花，在千千万万的星群里，唯有她盛开着，只要看着星星，也会让他觉得快乐。

”每每读到这一句，嘴角总是在不经意间勾起。

《小王子》给了我多少似曾相识的温情，在不经意间被温暖了心房。

因为想念着那世上独一无二的花朵，漫天的星光只因一朵高傲的玫瑰而闪亮。

在经历无数旅行之后泪流满面：“那时的我太年轻。

”于是悔恨着自己年轻的少不更事。

我还想他，小王子。

不知道他在他的小星球上过得如何，他的玫瑰是不是还在等待之中亮着她天真的四颗刺。

It looked like this:I showed my masterpiece to the grown-ups, and asked them whether the drawing frightened them.But they answered: 'Frighten?

But since the grown-ups were not able to understand it, I made another drawing: I drew the inside of the boa constrictor, so that the grown-ups could see it clearly. They always need to have things explained.

小王子（英文版）1至5章

Little Prince（《小王子》英文版）Written By Antoine de Saiot-Exupery (1900～1944)To Leon Werthwhen he was a little boyask the indulgence of the children who may read this book fordedicating it to a grown-up . I have a serious reason: he is the best friend I have in the world. Ihave another reason: this grown-up understands everything, even books about children. I have athird reason: he lives in France where he is hungry and cold. He needs cheering up. If all thesereasons are not enough, I will dedicate the book to the child from whom this grown-up grew. All grown-ups were once children-- although few of them remember it. And so I correct myd edication:[ Chapter 1 ]- we are introduced to the narrator, a pilot, and his ideas about grown-upsOnce when I was six years old I saw a magnificent picture in a book, called True Stories fromNatu re, about the primeval forest.

I would talk to him about bridge, and golf, and politics, and neckti es. Andthe grown-up would be greatly pleased to have met such a sensible man.[ Chapter 2 ]- the narrator crashes in the desert and makes theacquaintance of the little princeSo I lived my life alone, without anyone that I could really talk to, until I had an accident with my plane in the Desert of Sahara, six years ago. Something was broken in my engine. And as I had wit h meneither a mechanic nor any passengers, I set myself to attempt the difficult repairs all alone. It was aquestion of life or death for me: I had scarcely enough drinking water to last a week.The first night, then, I went to sleep on the sand, a thousand miles from any human habitation. I w asmore isolated than a shipwrecked sailor on a raft in the middle of the ocean. Thus you can imagi ne myamazement, at sunrise, when I was awakened by an odd little voice. It said: "If you please-- draw me a sheep!""What!""Draw me a sheep!"I jumped to my feet, completely thunderstruck. I blinked my eyes hard. I looked carefully all arou ndme. And I saw a most extraordinary small person, who stood there examining me with great seri ousness.Here you may see the best portrait that, later, I was able to make of him. But my drawing i s certainly verymuch less charming than its model.That, however, is not my fault. The grown-ups discouraged me in my painter‘s career when I wassix years old, and I never learned to draw anything, except boas from the outside and boas fro m theinside.Now I stared at this sudden apparition with my eyes fairly starting out of my head in astonishment. Remember, I had crashed in the desert a thousand miles from any inhabited region. And yet my lit tle manseemed neither to be straying uncertainly among the sands, nor to be fainting from fatigue or hunger orthirst or fear. Nothing about him gave any suggestion of a child lost in the middle of t he desert, a thousandmiles from any human habitation. When at last I was able to speak, I said to h im: "But-- what are youdoing here?"And in answer he repeated, very slowly, as if he were speaking of a matter of great consequence: "Ifyou please-- draw me a sheep..."When a mystery is too overpowering, one dare not disobey. Absurd as it might seem to me, athous and miles from any human habitation and in danger of death, I took out of my pocket a sheet ofpa per and my fountain-pen. But then I remembered how my studies had been concentrated on geogra phy,history, arithmetic, and grammar, and I told the little chap (a little crossly, too) that I did not k now how todraw. He answered me:"That doesn‘t matter. Draw me a sheep..."But I had never drawn a sheep. So I drew for him one of the two pictures I had drawn so often. Itw as that of the boa constrictor from the outside. And I was astounded to hear the little fellow greet it with,"No, no, no! I do not want an elephant inside a boa constrictor. A boa constrictor is a verydangero us creature, and an elephant is very cumbersome. Where I live, everything is very small. What Ine ed is a sheep. Draw me a sheep."So then I made a drawing.He looked at it carefully, then he said:"No. This sheep is already very sickly. Make me another."So I made another drawing.My friend smiled gently and indulgently. "You see yourself," he said,"that this is not a sheep. This isa ram. It has horns."So then I did my drawing over once more.But it was rejected too, just like the others."This one is too old. I want a sheep that will live a longtime."By this time my patience was exhausted, because I was in a hurry to start taking my engine apart. SoI tossed off this drawing.And I threw out an explanation with it."This is only his box. The sheep you asked for is inside."I was very surprised to see a light break over the face of my young judge:"That is exactly the way I wanted it! Do you think that this sheep will have to have a great deal of grass?""Why?""Because where I live everything is very small...""There will surely be enough grass for him," I said."It is a very small sheep that I have given you."He bent his head over the drawing:"Not so small that-- Look! He has gone to sleep..."And that is how I made the acquaintance of the little prince.[ Chapter 3 ]- the narrator learns more about from where the littleprince cameIt took me a long time to learn where he came from. The littleprince, who asked me so many quest ions, never seemed to hear theones I asked him. It was from words dropped by chance that, little b y little, everything was revealed tome.The first time he saw my airplane, for instance (I shall not draw my airplane; that would be much t oocomplicated for me), he asked me: "What is that object?""That is not an object. It flies. It is an airplane. It is my airplane." And I was proud to have him lea rnthat I could fly.He cried out, then: "What! You dropped down from the sky?""Yes," I answered, modestly."Oh! That is funny!"And the little prince broke into a lovely peal of laughter, which irritated me very much. I like mym isfortunes to be taken seriously.Then he added: "So you, too, come from the sky! Which is your planet?"At that moment I caught a gleam of light in the impenetrable mystery of his presence; and Ideman ded, abruptly: "Do you come from another planet?"But he did not reply. He tossed his head gently, without taking his eyes from my plane:"It is true thaton that you can‘t have come from very far away..."And he sank into a reverie, which lasted a long time. Then, taking my sheep out of his pocket, heb uried himself in the contemplation of his treasure.You can imagine how my curiosity was aroused by this half-confidence about the "other planets." Imade a great effort, therefore, to find out more on this subject."My little man, where do you come from? What is this ‘where I live,‘ of which you speak? Where doyou want to take your sheep?"After a reflective silence he answered:"The thing that is so good about the box you have given me isthat at night he can use it as his hous e.""That is so. And if you are good I will give you a string, too, so that you can tie him during the da y,and a post to tie him to."But the little prince seemed shocked by this offer: "Tie him! What a queer idea!""But if you don‘t tie him," I said, "he will wander off somewhere, and get lost."My friend broke into another peal of laughter: "But where do you think he would go?""Anywhere. Straight ahead of him."Then the little prince said, earnestly:"That doesn‘t matter. Where I live, everything is so small!"And, with perhaps a hint of sadness, he added:"Straight ahead of him, nobody can go very far..."[ Chapter 4 ]- the narrator speculates as to which asteroid fromwhich the little prince cameI had thus learned a second fact of great importance: this wasthat the planet the little prince came f rom was scarcely any larger than a house!But that did not really surprise me much. I knew very well that in addition to the great planets-- su chas the Earth, Jupiter, Mars, Venus-- to which we have given names, there are also hundreds of o thers,some of which are so small that one has a hard time seeing them through the telescope. Whe n anastronomer discovers one of these he does not give it a name, but only a number. He might cal l it, forexample, "Asteroid 325."I have serious reason to believe that the planet from which the little prince came is the asteroidkno wn as B-612. This asteroid has only once been seen through the telescope. That was by a Turkisha stronomer, in 1909.On making his discovery, the astronomer had presented it to the International AstronomicalCongr ess, in a great demonstration. But he was in Turkish costume, and so nobody would believe what h esaid.Grown-ups are like that...Fortunately, however, for the reputation of Asteroid B-612, a Turkish dictator made a law that hiss ubjects, under pain of death, should change to European costume. So in 1920 the astronomer gave hisdemonstration all over again, dressed with impressive style and elegance. And this time everyb odyaccepted his report.If I have told you these details about the asteroid, and made a note of its number for you, it is onac count of the grown-ups and their ways. When you tell them that you have made a new friend, they never ask you any questions about essential matters. They never say to you,"What does his voice soundlike? What games does he love best? Does he collect butterflies?" Inst ead, they demand:"How old is he?How many brothers has he? How much does he weigh? How much money does hi s father make?" Onlyfrom these figures do they think they have learned anything about him.If you were to say to the grown-ups:"I saw a beautiful house made of rosy brick, with geraniums inthe windows and doves on the roof, " they would not be able to get any idea of that house at all. Youwould have to say to them:"I saw a house that cost $20,000." Then they would exclaim: "Oh, what apretty house that is!"Just so, you might say to them:"The proof that the little prince existed is that he was charming, thathe laughed, and that he was lo oking for a sheep. If anybody wants a sheep, that is a proof that he exists."And what good would it do to tell them that? They would shrug their shoulders, and treat you like a child.But if you said to them:"The planet he came from is Asteroid B-612," then they would be convinced, andleave you in pea ce from their questions.They are like that. One must not hold it against them. Children should always show great forbeara ncetoward grown-up people.But certainly, for us who understand life, figures are a matter of indifference. I should have liked t obegin this story in the fashion of the fairy-tales. I should have like to say:"Once upon a time there was alittle prince who lived on a planet that was scarcely any bigger than himself, and who had need of asheep..."To those who understand life, that would have given a much greater air of truth to my story.For I do not want any one to read my book carelessly. I have suffered too much grief in settingdo wn these memories. Six years have already passed since my friend went away from me, with hissh eep. If I try to describe him here, it is to make sure that I shall not forget him. To forget a friend is sad.Not every one has had a friend. And if I forget him, I may become like the grown-ups who are no longerinterested in anything but figures...It is for that purpose, again, that I have bought a box of paints and some pencils. It is hard to take updrawing again at my age, when I have never made any pictures except those of the boa constrict or fromthe outside and the boa constrictor from the inside, since I was six. I shall certainly try to make myportraits as true to life as possible. But I am not at all sure of success. One drawing goes along all right,and another has no resemblance to its subject. I make some errors, too, in the littl e prince‘s height: in oneplace he is too tall and in another too short. And I feel some doubts about th e color of his costume. So Ifumble along as best I can, now good, now bad, and I hope generally fa ir-to-middling.In certain more important details I shall make mistakes, also. But that is something that will not be my fault. My friend never explained anything to me. He thought, perhaps, that I was like himself. But I,alas, do not know how to see sheep through t he walls of boxes. Perhaps I am a little like the grown-ups.I have had to grow old.[ Chapter 5 ]- we are warned as to the dangers of the baobabsAs each day passed I would learn, in our talk, something about the little prince‘s planet, his departure from it, his journey. The information would come very slowly, as it might chance to fall from his thoughts. It was in this way that I heard, on the third day, about the catastrophe of the baobabs.This time, once more, I had the sheep to thank for it. For the little prince asked me abruptly-- as if seized by a grave doubt-- "It is true, isn‘t it, that sheep eat little bushes?""Yes, that is true.""Ah! I am glad!"I did not understand why it was so important that sheep should eat little bushes. But the little prince added:"Then it follows that they also eat baobabs?"I pointed out to the little prince that baobabs were not little bushes, but, on the contrary, trees as big as castles; and that even if he took a whole herd of elephants away with him, the herd would not eat up one single baobab.The idea of the herd of elephants made the little prince laugh."We would have to put them one on top of the other," he said.But he made a wise comment:"Before they grow so big, the baobabs start out by being little.""That is strictly correct," I said. "But why do you want the sheep to eat the little baobabs?"He answered me at once, "Oh, come, come!", as if he were speaking of something that was self-evident. And I was obliged to make a great mental effort to solve this problem, without any assistance.Indeed, as I learned, there were on the planet where the little prince lived-- as on all planets-- good plants and bad plants. In consequence, there were good seeds from good plants, and bad seeds from bad plants. But seeds are invisible. They sleep deep in the heart of the earth‘s darkness, until some one among them is seized with the desire to awaken. Then this little seed will stretch itself and begin-- timidly at first-- to push a charming little sprig inoffensively upward toward the sun. If it is only a sprout of radish or the sprig of a rose-bush, one would let it grow wherever it might wish. But when it is a bad plant, one must destroy it as soon as possible, the very first instant that one recognizes it.Now there were some terrible seeds on the planet that was the home of the little prince; and those were the seeds of the baobab. The soil of that planet was infested with them. A baobab issomething you will never, never be able to get rid of if you attend to it too late. It spreads over the entire planet. It bores clear through it with its roots. And if the planet is too small, and the baobabs are too many, they split it in pieces..."It is a question of discipline," the little prince said to me later on. "When you‘ve finished your own toilet in the morning, then it is time to attend to the toilet of your planet, just so, with the greatest care. Y ou must see to it that you pull up regularly all the baobabs, at the very first moment when they can be distinguished from the rosebushes which they resemble so closely in their earliest youth. It is very tedious work," the little prince added, "but very easy."And one day he said to me: "Y ou ought to make a beautiful drawing, so that the children where you live can see exactly how all this is. That would be very useful to them if they were to travel some day. Sometimes," he added, "there is no harm in putting off a piece of work until another day. But when it is a matter of baobabs, that always means a catastrophe. I knew a planet that was inhabited by a lazy man. He neglected three little bushes..."So, as the little prince described it to me, I have made a drawing of that planet. I do not much like to take the tone of a moralist. But the danger of the baobabs is so little understood, and such considerable risks would be run by anyone who might get lost on an asteroid, that for once I am breaking through my reserve. "Children," I say plainly, "watch out for the baobabs!"My friends, like myself, have been skirting this danger for a long time, without ever knowing it; and so it is for them that I have worked so hard over this drawing. The lesson which I pass on by this means is worth all the trouble it has cost me.Perhaps you will ask me, "Why are there no other drawing in this book as magnificent and impressive as this drawing of the baobabs?"The reply is simple. I have tried. But with the others I have not been successful. When I made the drawing of the baobabs I was carried beyond myself by the inspiring force of urgent necessity.。

小王子-第1章

第1章当我还只有六岁的时候，在一本描写原始森林的名叫《真实的故事》的书中，看到了一副精彩的插画，画的是一条蟒蛇正在吞食一只大野兽。

页头上就是那副画的摹本。

这本书中写道：“这些蟒蛇把它们的猎获物不加咀嚼地囫囵吞下，尔后就不能再动弹了；它们就在长长的六个月的睡眠中消化这些食物。

”当时，我对丛林中的奇遇想得很多，于是，我也用彩色铅笔画出了我的第一副图画。

我的第一号作品。

它是这样的：我把我的这副杰作拿给大人看，我问他们我的画是不是叫他们害怕。

他们回答我说：“一顶帽子有什么可怕的？”我画的不是帽子，是一条巨蟒在消化着一头大象。

于是我又把巨蟒肚子里的情况画了出来，以便让大人们能够看懂。

这些大人总是需要解释。

我的第二号作品是这样的：大人们劝我把这些画着开着肚皮的，或闭上肚皮的蟒蛇的图画放在一边，还是把兴趣放在地理、历史、算术、语法上。

就这样，在六岁的那年，我就放弃了当画家这一美好的职业。

我的第一号、第二号作品的不成功，使我泄了气。

这些大人们，靠他们自己什么也弄不懂，还得老是不断地给他们作解释。

这真叫孩子们腻味。

后来，我只好选择了另外一个职业，我学会了开飞机，世界各地差不多都飞到过。

的确，地理学帮了我很大的忙。

我一眼就能分辨出中国和亚里桑那。

要是夜里迷失了航向，这是很有用的。

这样，在我的生活中，我跟许多严肃的人有过很多的接触。

我在大人们中间生活过很长时间。

我仔细地观察过他们，但这并没有使我对他们的看法有多大的改变。

当我遇到一个头脑看来稍微清楚的大人时，我就拿出一直保存着的我那第一号作品来测试测试他。

我想知道他是否真的有理解能力。

可是，得到的回答总是：“这是顶帽子。

”我就不和他谈巨蟒呀，原始森林呀，或者星星之类的事。

我只得迁就他们的水平，和他们谈些桥牌呀，高尔夫球呀，政治呀，领带呀这些。

于是大人们就十分高兴能认识我这样一个通情达理的人。
