Little Women

小妇人

(xiǎo fùrén)

1. How come some girls get to have lots of pretty things, and others have nothing at all?

为什么有些女孩有很多漂亮的东西,而有些女孩什么都没有呢?

(wèi shénme yǒuxiē nǚhái yǒu hěnduō piāoliànɡ de dōnɡxī, ér yǒuxiē nǚhái shénme dōu méiyǒu ne?)

2. Because with every chance of being good, happy and useful, you are lazy, faulty and miserable.

因为每一个变得善良、快乐和有用的机会你都没有把握住,你都是懒惰的、错误的、可悲的。

(yīnwèi měi yíɡè biàndé shànliánɡ kuàilè hé yǒuyònɡ de jīhuì nǐ dōu méiyǒu bǎwò zhù, nǐ dōushì lǎnduòde cuòwùde kěbēide.)

3.  And you will always be a critic, and never an author. 

你永远都会是一个批评者,而不是作家。

(nǐ yǒnɡyuǎn dōuhuì shì yíɡè pīpínɡ zhě, ér bùshì zuòjiā.)

4. Someday you'll need me, and you'll wish you had behaved better.

总有一天你会需要我的,你会希望你当初表现得好些。

(zǒnɡyǒu yìtiān nǐhuì xūyào wǒde, nǐhuì xīwànɡ nǐ dānɡchū biǎoxiàn dé hǎoxiē.)
