Little by little, I learned the little prince's secret. 渐渐地,我了解了小王子的秘密。
He came from far away, from a tiny planet no bigger than a house. 他来自很远的地方,来自一个不比一栋房子大的小星球。
His planet was so small that he could see many sunsets in one day. 他的星球太小了,以至于他一天能看到很多次日落。
He only had to move his chair a little. 他只需要把椅子挪动一点点。
One day, he told me softly, I watched the sun go down 44 times. 有一天,他轻声对我说:“我看了44次日落。”
When a person is very sad, he added, He loves to watch the sunset. 他补充道:“当一个人非常悲伤的时候,他就会喜欢看日落。”
On his planet grew tiny plants called baobab trees. 在他的星球上,长着一些叫做猴面包树的小植物。
When they were small, they looked harmless. 当它们还小的时候,看起来是无害的。
But baobabs grow into giant trees, and their roots can break a small planet into pieces. 但是猴面包树会变成参天大树,它们的根能把一个小星球撕成碎片。
So every morning, the prince said, I pull out the baby baobabs. 所以每天早上,小王子说:“我把小猴面包树拔掉。”

There is an important rule, he told me. 他告诉我:“有一个重要的规则。”
When you get up in the morning, you wash yourself. 当你早上起床的时候,你要洗漱。

but small problems left alone can destroy a whole world. 但是被忽视的小问题能摧毁整个世界。
Then his face grew sad. 然后,他的脸变得悲伤起来。
He wanted to tell me about a flower. 他想告诉我关于一朵花的事情。
