"Two more days!" thought Lisi happily. "Two more days to my birthday." Lisi was almost seven years old. Monday was her birthday and she couldn't wait. Today was only Saturday. Two days can be a very long time if you are almost seven.
Lisi lived in a lovely yellow house with her Mother and Father; her younger brother, Andrew,and Tom, her puppy.
"Lisi," said Father, "We are going to hang new wallpaper in your room. I have found some very nice blue-striped wallpaper in the attic and your
room does need redecorating."
"I don't like blue! Lisi pouted. When you are a girl who is almost seven, you want pink wallpaper, not blue. Everyone knows that.
"Lisi!" scolded Mother. "Don't be like that. You should be glad your room is getting redone."
"Yes," Father said, "I would be very happy to have such nice wallpaper in my room. I have arranged for Nelson to come by and put it up as soon as he can."
"I don't care what they say," thought Lisi, "I hate blue wallpaper. I want pink!"
“还有两天!” 丽丝高兴地想。 “还有两天就是我的生日。” 丽丝快七岁了。 星期一是她的生日,她等不及了。 今天只是星期六。 如果你快七岁了,两天可能会很长。
丽丝和她的父母住在一栋漂亮的黄色房子里。 她的弟弟安德鲁和她的小狗汤姆。
“丽丝,”父亲说,“我们要在你的房间里挂新墙纸。我在阁楼上找到了一些非常漂亮的蓝色条纹墙纸,你的
房间确实需要重新装修。”
“我不喜欢蓝色!丽丝撅着嘴。当你是一个快七岁的女孩时,你想要粉红色的壁纸,而不是蓝色。这个谁都知道。
“丽丝!” 骂妈妈。 “别那样。你应该庆幸你的房间正在重新装修。”
“是的,”父亲说,“如果我的房间里有这么漂亮的墙纸,我会很高兴的。我已经安排尼尔森过来,尽快把它贴上。”
“我不在乎他们说什么,”丽丝想,“我讨厌蓝色壁纸。我想要粉色!”
