課文講解

 

Before they escaped, Daedalus warned Icarus, "Don't fly too high. The sun will melt the wax and ruin your wings." Icarus nodded. Then, the father and son jumped out of the window and began flying! Icarus had so much fun and became careless. He went too high. His dad yelled, "Icarus, come back down!"

 

在他们逃离之前,代达勒斯警告着伊卡洛斯:「别飞太高,太阳会将蜡融化而毁了你的翅膀。」伊卡洛斯点着头。接着,这对父子跳出窗外开始飞翔!伊卡洛斯太过开心而变得疏忽大意;他飞过高了。他父亲吼着:「伊卡洛斯,回到下面来!」

 

But it was too late. The sun melted the wax, and Icarus' wings came apart. Icarus fell into the ocean and drowned. Daedalus' heart broke, and he cried and cried. He decided to call the land near Icarus' death "Icaria" in memory of his son.

 

然而,为时已晚;太阳融化了蜡并支解了伊卡洛斯的翅膀,他坠落海中溺毙。代达勒斯因而心碎地哭了又哭;他决定将邻近伊卡洛斯葬身处的陆地取名为「伊卡利亚」以纪念他的爱子。
