"Do you remember? You left me when I was a little girl and now you find me a grown woman. I am so old, I could almost be your mother!"

"Oh, I'm tired of always being a Marionette!" cried Pinocchio disgustedly. "It's about time for me to grow into a man as everyone else does."

查看中文翻译

"You rascal of a Marionette! How did you know it was I?" she asked, laughing.

查看中文翻译

"That's a secret!"

查看中文翻译

"Tell it to me. I also want to grow a little. Look at me! I have never grown higher than a penny's worth of cheese."

查看中文翻译

"I am very glad of that, for then I can call you mother instead of sister. For a long time I have wanted a mother, just like other boys. But how did you grow so quickly?"

查看中文翻译

"My love for you told me who you were."

查看中文翻译

If Pinocchio cried much longer, the little woman thought he would melt away, so she finally admitted that she was the little Fairy with Azure Hair.

查看中文翻译

"But you can't grow," answered the Fairy.

查看中文翻译

"Why not?"

查看中文翻译

"Because Marionettes never grow. They are born Marionettes, they live Marionettes, and they die Marionettes."

查看中文翻译

"And I, on the contrary, am a lazy fellow and a tramp all year round."

查看中文翻译

"Don't you think I do?"

查看中文翻译

"Will I ever be lucky enough to find him and embrace him once more?"

查看中文翻译

"Good boys love study and work, but you --"

查看中文翻译

"I do not know."

查看中文翻译

"I think so. Indeed, I am sure of it."

查看中文翻译

"Good boys always tell the truth."

查看中文翻译

"I promise. I want to become a good boy and be a comfort to my father. Where is my poor father now?"

查看中文翻译

"Good boys go gladly to school."

查看中文翻译

At this answer, Pinocchio's happiness was very great. He grasped the Fairy's hands and kissed them so hard that it looked as if he had lost his head. Then lifting his face, he looked at her lovingly and asked:

查看中文翻译

"And I always tell lies."

查看中文翻译

"And I get sick if I go to school. From now on I'll be different."

查看中文翻译

"And you will if you deserve it --"

查看中文翻译

"And I never obey."

查看中文翻译

"Far from it! Good boys are obedient, and you, on the contrary --"

查看中文翻译

"Really? What can I do to deserve it?"

查看中文翻译

"Do you promise?"

查看中文翻译

"Tell me, little Mother, it isn't true that you are dead, is it?"

查看中文翻译

"It's a very simple matter. Try to act like a well-behaved child."

查看中文翻译

"It doesn't seem so," answered the Fairy, smiling.

查看中文翻译

"I know it, and for that I have forgiven you. The depth of your sorrow made me see that you have a kind heart. There is always hope for boys with hearts such as yours, though they may often be very mischievous. This is the reason why I have come so far to look for you. From now on, I'll be your own little mother."

查看中文翻译

"No, indeed. Remember it is never too late to learn."

查看中文翻译

"Beginning tomorrow," said the Fairy, "you'll go to school every day."

查看中文翻译

"You will obey me always and do as I wish?"

查看中文翻译

"Gladly, very gladly, more than gladly!"

查看中文翻译

"I was just saying," whined the Marionette in a whisper, "that it seems too late for me to go to school now."

查看中文翻译

"If you only knew how I suffered and how I wept when I read 'Here lies -- '"

查看中文翻译

Pinocchio became more serious.

查看中文翻译

"What are you mumbling to yourself?" asked the Fairy.

查看中文翻译

"But I don't want either trade or profession."

查看中文翻译

"Then you will choose the trade you like best."

查看中文翻译

Pinocchio's face fell a little.

查看中文翻译

"Oh! How lovely!" cried Pinocchio, jumping with joy.

查看中文翻译

"Because work wearies me!"

查看中文翻译

"Why?"

查看中文翻译

These words touched Pinocchio's heart. He lifted his eyes to his Fairy and said seriously: "I'll work; I'll study; I'll do all you tell me. After all, the life of a Marionette has grown very tiresome to me and I want to become a boy, no matter how hard it is. You promise that, do you not?"

查看中文翻译

"My dear boy," said the Fairy, "people who speak as you do usually end their days either in a prison or in a hospital. A man, remember, whether rich or poor, should do something in this world. No one can find happiness without work. Woe betide the lazy fellow! Laziness is a serious illness and one must cure it immediately; yes, even from early childhood. If not, it will kill you in the end."

查看中文翻译

"Yes, I promise, and now it is up to you."
