《Choosing a Birthday Cake Flavor》封面

Wesley wanted to buy a cake for Brooke's birthday. Brooke was his best friend at school. Her party was the next afternoon. Wesley went to the bakery with his sister Greta. The bakery had many cakes in the window.

韦斯利想给布鲁克的生日买一个蛋糕。布鲁克是他在学校里最好的朋友。她的派对就在第二天下午。韦斯利和妹妹格蕾塔一起去了面包店。面包店的橱窗里摆着许多蛋糕。

Two cakes looked perfect for the party. One cake was chocolate with pink flowers. The other cake was lemon with white frosting. Wesley liked chocolate cake very much. Brooke loved lemon cake even more.

有两个蛋糕看起来很适合派对。一个是巧克力蛋糕,上面有粉色的花。另一个是柠檬蛋糕,裹着白色的糖霜。韦斯利非常喜欢巧克力蛋糕。布鲁克更爱柠檬蛋糕。

"Which one do we pick?" Greta asked. Wesley thought about his friend Brooke. "Brooke always orders lemon cake at restaurants," he said. "Then lemon is a good choice," Greta said. Wesley still looked at the chocolate cake.

“我们选哪一个?”格蕾塔问。韦斯利想着他的朋友布鲁克。“布鲁克去餐厅总是点柠檬蛋糕,”他说。“那柠檬的就是个好选择,”格蕾塔说。韦斯利还是看着那个巧克力蛋糕。

He wanted to try something new too. Then he had an idea. "Can we buy two small cakes?" he asked the baker. The baker smiled and nodded her head. "Of course. Small cakes are easy to make," she said.

他也想尝尝新的东西。这时他有了一个主意。“可以买两个小蛋糕吗?”他问面包师。面包师笑着点了点头。“当然可以。小蛋糕很好做,”她说。

Wesley paid for both small cakes. He carried the box home carefully. The next day, he brought both cakes to the party. Brooke opened the box and gasped. "Two flavors? Now I don't have to choose!" she said. Everyone laughed and had a slice of each cake.

韦斯利付钱买下了两个小蛋糕。他小心地把盒子拿回家。第二天,他把两个蛋糕都带到了派对上。布鲁克打开盒子,惊讶地倒吸一口气。“两种口味?这下我不用选了!”她说。大家都笑了,每种蛋糕都吃了一块。
