Scene 1 · Beginner
Pewnego gorącego letniego dnia lis chodził po sadzie. Zobaczył winogrona, które właśnie dojrzewały. Wisiały wysoko na gałęzi.
One hot summer day, a fox was walking around an orchard. He saw some grapes that were just ripening. They hung high on a branch.
– Chce mi się pić. Chcę zjeść te winogrona – powiedział lis.
“I’m thirsty. I want to eat those grapes,” said the fox.
Cofnął się o kilka kroków, pobiegł i skoczył. Prawie dosięgnął winogron, ale nie udało mu się ich złapać. Wrócił na swoje miejsce i policzył: „Raz, dwa, trzy”. Potem znów skoczył, jednak i tym razem nie dosięgnął owoców.
He stepped back a few paces, ran, and jumped. He almost reached the grapes, but couldn’t grab them. He went back to his spot and counted: “One, two, three.” Then he jumped again, but he couldn’t reach the fruit this time either.
