Hello, this is Teacher Bear. 我是Bear老師。

今天的故事是關於一隻小臭鼬的煩惱。
Today's story is about the worries of a little skunk.

你們知道臭鼬(skunk)為什麼會臭嗎？Why they are so stinky?為什麼他們那麼臭？ 其實啊，臭鼬會臭並不是因為放屁(fart)，而且啊，他們也不總是那麼臭。只有在遇到敵人的時候，臭鼬才會從肛門旁邊的肛門腺噴出一種非常臭的液體來保護自己、嚇跑敵人。但是很多人不知道，就以為是他們放的屁很臭。所以啊，下次如果你也碰到臭鼬，可千萬別嚇唬他們喔，免得被臭暈了。

現在我們來聽故事嘍。

有一隻小臭鼬，他非常煩惱，
There was a little skunk, and he worried a lot.

因為，他很想交朋友，
Because he wanted to make friends,

可是，森林裡的小朋友都躲著他，
but the kids in the forest all avoided him,

讓他感到非常自卑。
which made him feel very inferior.(他覺得很自卑喔~)

有一天，他跟媽媽說：(One day, he said to his mother：)
「媽媽，我好難過(Mom, I'm so sad)，大家都說我臭(everyone says I'm stinky)，沒有人想當我的朋友(no one wants to be my friend.)。」
媽媽回答：「天生我材必有用(All things in their being are good for something)，我們臭鼬雖然有時候會臭得讓人受不了，可是，我們也有優點啊(although we skunks stink so badly, we also have strengths.)。放心(Don't worry)，他們總有一天會看到你的優點(they will see your strengths someday.)。」

小臭鼬聽了媽媽的話以後，決定再試一試，於是他去找了小貓咪。
After listening to his mother, the little skunk decided to try again, so he went to visit the kitten.(他去找小貓咪)

「小貓咪，你願意當我的朋友嗎？」"Kitty, would you like to be my friend?"小臭鼬問。

小貓咪回答：「(No)我才不要，你上次把我臭得睜不開眼睛(You were so stinky last time and made me unable to open my eyes)，你忘了嗎(did you forget)？」
小臭鼬不好意思地說：「(I'm sorry,)對不起啊， (it was really dark that day, I couldn't see clearly,)那天真的太暗了，我看不清楚，(I thought you were a tiger.)我以為你是老虎。」

小貓咪不想聽解釋，跑走了。The kitten ran away.

小臭鼬去找小松鼠(little squirrel)，想繼續試試看(He wanted to try again)。

「小松鼠，你願意當我的朋友嗎？」"Little squirrel, would you like to be my friend?"

小松鼠回答：「唉~~我上次被你臭得暈倒了，有好幾天連爬樹都有困難。(oh~~ I fainted because of your smell last time, and had difficulty climbing trees for days.)」
小臭鼬不好意思地說：「(I'm sorry)對不起， (because you suddenly jumped beside me.)因為你忽然跳到我身邊，我嚇了一跳(I was startled)。」

小松鼠說：「那是因為我要給你一個驚喜啊！(That's because I wanted to surprise you!)」

小臭鼬說：「請再給我一次機會吧~~( Please give me another chance~)」

忽然，

小臭鼬緊張地說：「是老虎(It’s taiger)！小鹿有危險了(The little deer is in danger!)，我要去救他(I am going to rescue him)。」小臭鼬連忙跑了過去，然後，用力擠了肛門腺噴向老虎。

老虎大叫：「哎呀！好臭啊！(so stinky！)我的眼睛好痛啊！(my eyes hurt so much)」終於，老虎被嚇跑了！(the little skunk scared the tiger away)小臭鼬把老虎嚇跑了！

「謝謝你救了我的命。(Thank you for saving my life.)」小鹿感激地說。

「你好厲害啊！(You are amazing!)」小松鼠也跑過來誇獎小臭鼬。

小臭鼬開心地說：「媽媽說『天生我材必有用』(My mother said, " All things in their being are good for something.")，很高興能幫到你們(I am so happy that I can help you.)。可是我現在這麼臭(but I am so stinky now)，你們還願意當我的朋友嗎？(Would you still want to be my friends?)」
「當然願意(of course)！雖然你臭(although you are stinky)，可是你是英雄(but you are a hero)。」小鹿和小松鼠異口同聲地回答，都願意當他的朋友。
就這樣，小臭鼬收獲了友誼。The little skunk made new friends.

小朋友，你知道自己有什麼優點(strength)或缺點(weakness) 呢？

你還記得「天生我材必有用」的英文怎麼說嗎？
All things in their being are good for something.

請跟Bear老師再說一次：
All things in their being are good for something.
