The Little Mermaid
小美人鱼

Once upon a time, there was a young mermaid Princess. She was swimming on the surface of the sea, and suddenly the weather turned terrible, the sky was dark and a big storm was coming.
很久很久以前，有个年轻的人鱼公主，她正自在地在海面上悠游着，突然间，天气转坏了，天空变得黑沉沉的，暴风雨就要来临了。

The Princess saw a ship being rocked in the waves. as she watched, a man was thrown overboard into the water. She swam over and saved the young man, but then she swam away.
此时，人鱼公主看见了一艘船在海浪上剧烈摇晃，同时又见到了一个男子被海浪打入海里，于是她游了过去，救起了那个年轻人，然后她很快地游走了。

This all happened so quickly. The young man was actually a prince. he never got a chance to say thank you to the mermaid. Over the next days, the young mermaid became very sad. She had fallen in love with the handsome young man.
这整件事情发生的很快，那个年轻人其实是一个王子，他并没有机会跟人鱼公主说声谢谢。接下来的日子，这个年轻的人鱼公主变得非常的悲伤，因为她已经爱上那个英俊的年轻人了。

So she went to the sea witch to help her become a human. The sea witch was not very nice. “I can help you,” she said with an evil look. “However, I will take your beautiful voice as payment, but if the man marries someone else, you will die and turn into foam.”
于是她去找海巫婆帮忙，请海巫婆把她变成人类，然而，海巫婆并不是一个好人。“我可以帮你，”海巫婆用邪恶的眼神看着她说，“但是，我要拿走你美妙的声音作为报酬，而且如果王子娶了别人，你将会死掉并且变成泡沫。”

The little mermaid was a bit nervous. But she was so happy at the thought of becoming human. So she gave the sea witch her beautiful voice.
这时候，小美人鱼显得有点紧张，但是一想到可以变成人类，她又高兴不已。于是，她就把她美妙的声音交给了海巫婆。

After the young mermaid became a human, she went to the surface. She found out that the young man was actually a prince. But she couldn’t tell him who she was. She had lost her voice.
小美人鱼变成了人类后，就来到了陆地上，结果，她发现那个年轻人其实是个王子！但是她没有办法告诉王子她是谁，因为她已经失去她的声音了。

Soon after, the Prince announced that he was going to marry another Princess, the little mermaid’s heart almost broke.
不久之后，王子宣布说，他即将跟另外一位公主结婚了，一听到这个消息，小美人鱼的心几乎都要碎了。

Her five sisters told her to kill the prince in order to save herself. But she couldn’t because she loved the Prince too mach. So, the sad little mermaid jumped into the sea to die.
此时，她的五个姐姐却要她把王子给杀掉，以拯救她自己的生命，但是她不肯，因为她太爱王子了，因此，悲伤的小美人鱼跳海寻死。

But the sea witch had lied. She didn’t turn into foam. Instead, she became an angel. She was finally able to be happy and free.
没想到，海巫婆当时说的并非实话，小美人鱼并没有变成泡沫，她反而变成了一个天使。最后，她变得快乐又逍遥！
