Adam was in his room.
He was playing with his cat.
He liked playing with it.
His little sister Kate came in and said, “Next Friday is Mom’s birthday. What about buying her a gift this weekend?”
“Oh, I forgot it! What does she want?” asked Adam.
“I don’t know,” said Kate. “We bought her a birthday cake last time.”
“Yes,” said Adam. “And we ate most of it! We mustn’t do that again.”
“Let’s buy her a book,” said Kate. “She likes reading.”
“What kind of book would she like?” asked Adam.
“I don’t know,” said Kate. “Let’s find it out.”
The children went into the living room.
Mrs. Wilson was watching TV there.
“We want to buy you a book for your birthday, Mom,” said Kate. “What book do you want?”
“How much do you want to spend?” asked Mom.
“We have twenty dollars,” said Adam.
“Good. That’s enough for the book. It’s called Quick and Easy Cooking,” said Mom.
Then the children went to the bookshop by bus.
They bought their mom the book for her birthday.
It cost them eighteen dollars.
Their mom liked it very much and read it every day.
They didn’t eat her gift this time, but they ate the things she cooked from it!
翻译：Adam在他的房间里。
他正在和他的猫玩。
他喜欢和猫玩。
他的小妹妹Kate进来说，“下周五是妈妈的生日。这个周末我们买个礼物怎么样？”
“哦，我忘了！”Adam问，“她想要什么？”
“我不知道，”Kate说，“上次我们给她买了一个生日蛋糕。”
“是的，”Adam说，“而且我们吃掉了大部分！我们不能再那样做了。”
“我们买本书给她吧，”Kate说，“她喜欢阅读。”
“她会喜欢什么样的书呢？”Adam问。
“我不知道，”Kate说，“我们找出来吧。”
孩子们走进客厅。威尔逊太太正在那里看电视。
“妈妈，我们想买本书给你过生日，”Kate说，“你想要什么书？”
“你们想花多少钱？”妈妈问。
“我们有二十美元，”Adam说。
“好的，够买那本书了。它叫《快速简易烹饪》，”妈妈说。
然后孩子们坐公共汽车去书店。
他们为妈妈买了那本书作为生日礼物。
它花了他们十八美元。
他们的妈妈非常喜欢，每天都在阅读。
这次他们没有吃掉她的礼物，但他们吃了她用书中的食谱做的东西！
