一个好的聆听者 A Good Listener

半个月前，妈妈陪着我在双泉学校门口买了二只小螃蟹。

Half a month ago, my mother accompanied me to buy two crabs at the gate of Shuangquan school.

它们的颜色是灰灰的，暗青色，肚皮是白色的。每只螃蟹有八个爪子。还有二个威武的大钳子。二个小眼睛可以一伸一缩不太好看。它的嘴巴是长方形的，老是不停的吐泡泡。

Their color is gray, dark blue, and their belly is white. Each crab has eight claws. And two mighty tongs. It's not very nice to have two small eyes that stretch and shrink. Its mouth is rectangular, always spitting bubbles.

螃蟹的最大特点是横着走路。我拿来一个小棍动螃蟹，螃蟹有钳子夹住了我的小棍，我一提小棍把螃蟹也提了出来。我把它放在地上后，它横着走，躲藏到衣架腿下，可能觉得那里很安全。

The biggest characteristic of crabs is to walk sideways. I brought a small stick to move the crab. The crab had a pair of pliers to hold my little stick. I picked up the little stick and brought the crab out. After I put it on the ground, it walked sideways and hid under the leg of the coat hanger. It might feel safe there.

螃蟹横着走的时候，我用小棍动它，它的两个大钳子立刻张起来，身体半直立，好像要和我战斗似的。我又用小棍把它放进鱼缸，螃蟹好一会才把大钳子收起来。看来，螃蟹的警惕性不挺高的哩！

When the crab walked sideways, I moved it with a small stick, and its two big pliers immediately opened up, half upright, as if to fight with me. I put it in the fish tank again with a small stick, and the crab took a long time to put the big pliers away. It seems that crab's vigilance is not very high!

小螃蟹吃鱼虫、馍花、蚯蚓等。我用鱼虫喂它。它一天到晚嘴里不停地吐泡泡。我给鱼缸里放了沙子、石子和水，好像就是它安闲又自在的家。

Small crabs eat fish worms, steamed flowers, earthworms, etc. I feed it with worms. He kept bubbling in his mouth all day long. I put sand, stones and water in the fish tank, as if it was a peaceful and comfortable home.

小螃蟹真可爱，我真喜欢它们呀！

Little crabs are so cute. I really like them!
