晚上，我和妈妈一块去捉小蝉，我们带好了工具就出发了。

in the evening, my mother and i went to catch cicadas together. we took our tools and set out.

来到大坝上，我们仔细寻找，过了好一会儿，我听到妈妈大叫一声：“快来看，这里有一只小蝉。”我和爸爸飞奔过去，我看见那只小蝉已经开始蜕皮了，爸爸把它捉住后放到我的手里，我感觉它的身体软软的，像一块棉花糖，仔细一看，淡黄色的身体，两只黄黄的小眼睛长在头的两侧，嘴巴上长着像针一样的长长地吸管，它有六条腿，还长着一对嫩嫩的小翅膀，屁股软软的，可爱极了。我想，过不了多久，它就会变成一只全身黑色的长着一对有力的翅膀，展翅飞翔。我带着这只小蝉继续去寻找新的小蝉……

when we came to the dam, we looked for it carefully. after a while, i heard my mother shouting, "come here, there is a little cicada." my father and i rushed to see that cicada had begun to shed its skin. my father caught it and put it in my hand. i felt that its body was soft, like a piece of marshmallow. look carefully. it had a light yellow body, two yellow eyes on both sides of its head, and a long needle like straw on its mouth. it had six legs and a pair of tender wings the ass is soft and lovely. i think it will become a pair of strong wings with black body in a short period of time. i take this little cicada to continue to look for a new cicada

在回家的路上，我看着它想，小蝉只能活五周，但它们并没有放弃每一个爬出地面的机会。因为它们有一个共同的梦想，那就是成为主宰夏天的歌唱家。虽然它们听不到自己的歌声，但它们每天却很快乐，自信的在大声歌唱，它们共同谱写出一首首夏天的乐曲。

on the way home, i looked at it and thought, little cicadas can only live for five weeks, but they didn't give up every chance to climb out of the ground. because they have a common dream, that is to become the singer who dominates the summer. although they can't hear their own songs, they are happy every day. they are singing loudly with confidence. together, they compose a song of summer.
