但这个故事 意义非凡
But there's more to this story than what's on the page,
在我布景之时 请各位注意

故事发生在特尼镇
We open in Thneedville,
人们叫它塑料假城
a city they say that was plastic and fake,
但居民却十分满意
and they liked it that way!
没有自然之物 树木也不见踪迹
A town without nature, not one living tree.
这是怎么回事
So, what happened to them?

以前这里长满了树
They used to grow all around here.
人们说 树的冠毛
And people said that the touch of their tufts
比任何东西都要柔软 连丝绸都逊色三分
was softer than anything, even silk.
他们还说这树有蝴蝶草的味道
And they smelled like butterfly milk!
真是难以想象
Wow! What does that even mean?
是啊
I know, right?
好吧
Oh, yeah.
我最大的梦想 就是看到
What I want more than anything in the whole world is to see
一棵真正的树
a real living tree
长在我家后院里
growing in my backyard.
那么如果 我只是随便一想
So if, say... I'm just thinking out loud here.
有个小伙给你搞来一棵
If a guy somehow got you one...
我可能当场嫁给他
I'd probably marry him on the spot.
这想法一定很疯狂 你觉得呢
I bet that sounds crazy. Does that sound crazy?
不 不疯狂
No! Not crazy.
一点都不疯狂
Not crazy at all.
泰德 亲爱的 好好吃饭
Ted, honey, don't play with your food.

妈妈 你知不知道在哪儿
So, Mom, do you happen to know if there's any place
能找到一棵真正的树
where I could get a real tree?
泰德 我们已经有一棵了
Ted, we already have a tree.

It's the latest model.
是啊 但我想要一棵真树
Yeah, but I mean a real one
能从地里长出来的那种
that grows out of the ground or whatever.
真正的树
You know, a real tree.
是吗
Really?
你要一块脏兮兮 乱糟糟
You would rather have some dirty, messy
从地里长出来的烂木头吗
lump of wood that just sticks out of the ground?
它能干嘛 我都不知道那有什么用
And it does what? I don't even know what it does.
生存的目的是什么
What's its purpose?
看看我们家的树
Look at what we've got.
是自动橡树 唯一的可遥控款

So, anyway...
假如我需要一棵树
Let's just say I need a tree.

Where would I go? What do I do?
那么 你就要先要找老万

老万知道那些树是怎么消失的
The Once-ler is the man who knows what happened to the trees.
你要树的话 就得找到他
You want one, you need to find him.
老万
The Once-ler?
奶奶 我们说的这事
Okay. Grammy, is this a real thing
是真的吗
that we're talking about now?
他现在还活得好好的
Oh, he's real all right.
那我该上哪儿去找他
Well, where can I find him?
那个地方 远在城外 寸草不生
Far outside of town where the grass never grows
空气凝滞 酸风阵阵
and the wind smells slow and sour when it blows.
群鸟不鸣 鸦声遍野
And no birds ever sing, excepting old crows.
别吓我了
Quit doing that.
老万就住在那儿
That's the place where the Once-ler lives.
等等 要出城吗
Wait, outside of town?
大家都说 只要给他十五美分
People used to say if you brought him 15 cents,
一个钉子
a nail
和一只老态龙钟的蜗牛的壳
and the shell of a great, great, great grandfather snail,
他就会告诉你一切
he would tell you everything.
欧海尔先生 我们要展示的产品
