ENJOY READING! 1 The Little Prince
p. 96, 97 本文音声
 So,/the last planet he visited/was Earth.// The prince saw tall mountains and many roses.// He was sad to discover/that his volcanoes and rose were not so special.//
 Then a fox appeared.// The prince wanted to play with him,/but the fox said,/“I’m not tamed.”//
 The little prince asked,/“What does tame mean?”//
 The fox explained,/“To tame me,/you must be patient until you feel/that I am unique/in all the world.”// The little prince listened carefully.// He took his time/and finally became friends with the fox.//

 The little prince learned a valuable lesson/from the fox.// There were thousands of roses in the universe,/but now he knew/that his rose was the special one.// The fox said,/“Sometimes we cannot see the most important things.// We can see them clearly/only with our hearts.// And then we become responsible forever/for the things we have tamed.”//
 I wanted to be together/with the little prince forever,/but he had been bitten/by a poisonous snake/and had collapsed in the sand.// But,/I’m sure/his wish to cherish his beloved rose will continue to live on somewhere.//

 When I look up at the stars in the night sky,/I think about the little prince.// Sometimes I feel sad.// I hope/that he is still taking care of his rose.// If the little prince comes back one day,/please tell me.//
