雙語美文：鉛筆與橡皮的的故事

Pencil：You know, Im really sorry.

鉛筆：我想說，我真的很抱歉。

Eraser: For what? You didnt do anything wrong.

橡皮：為什么?你沒有做錯事情啊?

Pencil: Im sorry, Because you get hurt because of me. Whenever I make a mistake, you are always there to erase it. But as you make my mistakes vanish, you lose a part of yourself. You get smaller and smaller everytime.

鉛筆：對不起，每次都是因為我而連累你受到傷害。我犯錯的時候，你總是會幫我糾正，但在幫助我的同時，你消耗的卻是自己的身體。你看看，你已經快要消失了。

Eraser: Thats true, but I dont really mind. You see, I was made to do this. I was made to help you whenever you do something wrong. Even though, one of these days, I know Ill be gone and you have to replace me with a new one, Im actually happy with my job. So please, stop worrying. I hate seeing you sad.

橡皮：沒錯，但是真的沒關系。我生來就是為了幫助你，糾正你的錯誤，即使有一天我會因此消失，而你也會找到新的朋友，繼續如我一樣毫無保留地幫助你。我其實很開心能在你身邊，履行我的使命。所以，不要傷心了，我可不想看到你難過的樣子啊。
