第二十章
网络小说网www.txtwl.com，最快更新《小王子》最新章节！
在沙漠、岩石和雪地上行走了很长的时间以后，小王子终于来到一条大路。所有的大路都是通往人住的地方的。
“你们好。”小王子说。
他正站在一个花园前面，里面玫瑰盛开。
“你好。”玫瑰花说道。
小王子仔细看着这些花，她们全都和他的那朵花一样。
“你们是什么花？”小王子惊奇地问。
“我们是玫瑰花。”花儿们说道。
他感到自己非常伤心。他的那朵花曾对他说她是整个宇宙中独一无二的花。可是，仅在这一座花园里就有五千朵和她完全一样的花！
小王子心想：“如果她看到这些，她一定会很羞愧……她会咳嗽得更厉害，并且为避免让人耻笑，她会佯装死去。那么，我还得装着去护理她，因为如果不这样的话，不去卑躬屈膝，她可能会真的死去……”
接着他又想：“我还以为我很富有，我有一朵全世界独一无二的花，可我有的仅是一朵普通的花。这朵花，再加上三座只有我膝盖那么高的火山，而且其中一座还可能是永远熄灭了的，这一切不会使我成为一个了不起的王子……”
于是，他趴在草丛中哭泣起来。
Chapter 20
But it happened that after walking for a long time through sand, and rocks, and snow, the little prince at last came upon a road. And all roads lead to the abodes of men.
"Good morning," he said.
He was standing before a garden, all a-bloom with roses.
"Good morning," said the roses.
The little prince gazed at them. They all looked like his flower.
"Who are you" he demanded, thunderstruck.
"We are roses," the roses said.
And he was overcome with sadness. His flower had told him that she was the only one of her kind in all the universe. And here were five thousand of them, all alike, in one single garden!
"She would be very much annoyed," he said to himself, "if she should see that... she would cough most dreadfully, and she would pretend that she was dying, to avoid being laughed at. And I should be obliged to pretend that I was nursing her back to life— for if I did not do that, to humble myself also, she would really allow herself to die..."Then he went on with his reflections: "I thought that I was rich, with a flower that was unique in all the world; and all I had was a common rose. A common rose, and three volcanoes that come up to my knees— and one of them perhaps extinct forever... that doesn’t make me a very great prince..."And he lay down in the grass and cried.
