Little Prince Episode 3 (英语版磨耳朵)

我孤独地生活着，没有一个人真正谈得来，直到有一次，六年前吧，飞机出了故障，在撒哈拉大沙漠。发动机里有什么东西弄碎了。身边没有机械师，也没有乘客，我只好自己来干这棘手的修理活儿。
So I lived my life alone, without anyone that I could really talk to, until I had an accident with my plane in the Desert of Sahara, six years ago. Something was broken in my engine. And as I had with me neither a mechanic nor any passengers, I set myself to attempt the difficult repairs all alone. 
这对我是生死大事。我带的水，只够喝八天。
It was a question of life or death for me: I had scarcely enough drinking water to last a week.
第一天晚上，我就睡在大沙漠里，千里之内，荒无人烟。我孤零零的，比大海中央漂在船板上的海难者还要孤零零。
The first night, then, I went to sleep on the sand, a thousand miles from any human habitation. I was more isolated than a shipwrecked sailor on a raft in the middle of the ocean. 
因此，黎明时，当一个奇怪的小小的声音唤醒我时，你们可以想象，我是多么吃惊！这个声音说：
Thus you can imagine my amazement, at sunrise, when I was awakened by an odd little voice. It said:
“请……给我画一只绵羊吧！”
“嗯！”
我猛地跳了起来，像被雷电击中。我使劲揉眼睛，仔细瞧了瞧。一个完全是天外来客的小人儿，正认真地瞧着我呢。后来，我还给他画了一幅最棒的肖像。当然，他本人比肖像要可爱多了！
"If you please­­ draw me a sheep!" 
"What!"
"Draw me a sheep!"
I jumped to my feet, completely thunderstruck. I blinked my eyes hard. I looked carefully all around me. And I saw a most extraordinary small person, who stood there examining me with great seriousness. Here you may see the best potrait that, later, I was able to make of him. But my drawing is certainly very much less charming than its model.
这不能怪我。六岁那年，大人们让我很失望，我已经放弃了画家生涯。我再没画过什么，除了大蟒蛇。
That, however, is not my fault. The grown­ ups discouraged me in my painter‘s career when I was six years old, and I never learned to draw anything, except boas from the outside and boas from the inside.
