The little prince
有一些人，
世俗是關(guān)不住的，
因為他們用心在看世界。
憑借一本《小王子》，安東尼·德·圣埃克佩蘇里上了50元面值的法郎，因為它的全球閱讀率僅次于《圣經(jīng)》。一個熱愛飛翔的人，用一顆大人的童心勾勒出法國、乃至世界文學(xué)史上的著名形象——系著圍巾的小王子。 《小王子》是一個哲理童話，但它與說教無關(guān)。在一個許多人認為“上帝已死”的時代，《小王子》試圖用愛和責(zé)任作為世界的出路。
如果你是一個孩子，愿你感受到愛意滿滿的世界。
如果你已長大成人，愿你學(xué)會如何肩負一種責(zé)任。
接下來的20周，我們一起用心看這一本被無數(shù)人喜愛的《小王子》
CHAPTER 1
①
Once when I was six years old I saw a magnificent(壯觀的) picture in a book, called True Stories from Nature, about the primeval(原始的) forest.
It was a picture of a boa constrictor(巨蟒) in the act of swallowing(吞下) an animal.
Here is a copy of the drawing.
In the book it said: “Boa constrictors(巨蟒) swallow(吞下) their prey(獵物) whole, without chewing(嚼) it.
After that they are not able to move, and they sleep through the six months that they need for digestion(消化).”
I pondered(思索) deeply, then, over the adventures(冒險) of the jungle(叢林).
