The House of 1000 Mirrors 千镜之屋

The House of 1000 Mirrors

千镜之屋

Long ago in a small, faraway village, there was a place known as the House of 1000 Mirrors.

很久以前，在一个很远的小村庄里，有一个以“千镜屋”而著名的地方。

A small, happy little dog learned of this place and decided to visit.

一个乐观的小狗听说了这个地方并决定去参观。

When he arrived, he bounced happily up the stairs to the doorway of the house.

当来到这个地方，他蹦蹦跳跳欢快地上了台阶，来到房门口。

He looked through the doorway with his ears lifted high and his tail wagging as fast as it could.

他高高竖起耳朵，欢快地摇着尾巴，从门口往里张望。

To his great surprise, he found himself staring at 1000 other happy little dogs with their tails wagging just as fast as his.

他惊奇地看到有1000只欢乐的小狗像他一样欢快地摇尾巴。

He gave a great smile, and was answered with 1000 great smiles just as warm and friendly.

他灿烂地微笑着，回报他的是1000张热情友好的灿烂笑脸。

Ashe left the House, he thought to himself, “This is a wonderful place. I will come back and visit it often.”

离开时他心想：“这真是一个精彩的地方，我一定要经常来参观。”

In this same village, another little dog, who was not quite as happy as the first one, decided to visit the house, too.

在这个村子里还有另一只想参观“千镜屋”的小狗，不过他不像第一只小狗那么乐观。

He slowly climbed the stairs and hung his head low as he looked into the door.

他慢吞吞地爬上台阶，然后耷拉着脑袋往屋子里看。

When he saw the 1000 unfriendly looking dogs staring back at him, he growled at them and was horrified to see 1000 little dogs growling back at him.

一看到有1000只小狗不友好地盯着他，他便开始冲他们狂吠，镜中的1000只小狗也冲着他狂吠，把他给吓坏了。

Ashe left, he thought to himself, “That is a horrible place, and I will never go back there again.”

他离开时心想：“这可真是个恐怖的地方，我再也不会来了。”

All the faces in the world are mirrors. What kind of reflections do you see in the faces of the people you meet?

世界上每一张面孔其实都是一面镜子，那么，在你遇见的人的脸上，你会看到什么呢？
