馒头是一只六岁的柴犬,住在一条老胡同里。她每天早上都出门散步。对她来说,散步是很重要的工作。
Mantou is a six-year-old Shiba Inu who lives in an old hutong lane. Every morning she goes out for a walk. For her, a walk is a very important job.
她的工作,就是记住街上的每一种新气味。哪棵树下有新味道,她都要知道。每个角落,她也要去闻一闻。
Her job is to remember every new smell on the street. Whenever there is a new scent under a tree, she has to know about it. She also has to go and sniff every corner.
馒头一边走路,一边用鼻子闻地上的气味。砖缝里藏着味道,她也要闻。胡同里又安静又凉快,她心情很好。
Mantou walks along, sniffing the smells on the ground. Smells are hidden in the cracks between the bricks, and she has to sniff those too. The hutong is quiet and cool, and she is in a good mood.
馒头走到一根路灯柱旁,停了下来。附近的狗都在这里留过气味,她每天都要来闻。可是今天旁边站着一只大狗,挡住了路。
Mantou comes to a lamppost and stops. All the dogs in the neighborhood have left their smell here, and she comes to sniff it every day. But today a big dog is standing beside it, blocking the way.
那只狗又大又凶,站在路灯柱旁边不动。馒头往前走一步,它就低声叫。她只好退回来,路灯柱上的气味一点儿也没闻到,心里很不高兴。
The dog is big and fierce, and it stands beside the lamppost without moving. When Mantou takes one step forward, it growls. She has to step back. She hasn't smelled the lamppost at all, and she is very unhappy.
馒头站着想了一会儿。今天的工作还没做完,她可不想就这样回家。她离大狗远远的,绕着路灯柱慢慢地走。
Mantou stands and thinks for a while. Today's job isn't finished yet, and she doesn't want to go home like this. Keeping well away from the big dog, she slowly walks around the lamppost.
馒头一边绕着圈走,一边低头闻着地面。突然,她在路灯柱附近的地上闻到了一种新气味!她的尾巴摇了起来。
Mantou walks in a circle with her head down, sniffing the ground. Suddenly, on the ground near the lamppost, she smells something new! Her tail starts to wag.
大狗看馒头不想打架,就慢慢走开了。馒头终于能靠近路灯柱了,她闻了又闻,把新气味都记在心里。今天的工作做完了。
The big dog sees that Mantou doesn't want to fight, so it slowly walks away. At last Mantou can get close to the lamppost. She sniffs and sniffs, and remembers every new smell. Today's job is done.
馒头继续向前走,一边走一边想着刚才的新气味。工作做完了,现在是玩儿的时间。她高高地卷着尾巴,低下头,又开始闻地上的味道了。
Mantou keeps walking, thinking about the new smells from a moment ago. The job is done, and now it's time to play. With her tail curled up high, she lowers her head and starts sniffing the ground again.
