=============

He does not like work and he plays all day with his friends in the market. He and his mother are very poor, and are often hungry, but Aladdin never works, and never helps his mother.

//完了，自己也不喜欢工作，家里还穷，懒惰的我。QAQ

He gives them gold, buys Aladdin a beautiful new coat, and wants to help them. Aladdin is very happy.

//天上掉下个富叔叔，是福还是祸。

'But it is our money, Mother,'

//强调 is：确实是…我们的钱。

'But he knows my name, and my father's name,' Aladdin said…Abanazar had tears in his eyes and Aladdin's mother began to cry too.

//Abanazar 骗人的技巧真滴高

He plays with his friends all day, and only comes home when he is hungry.'

//完了，好像又是在说我，又挨骂了。

They drank coffee, talked to people, and had a very good dinner.

//阿拉伯人也爱喝咖啡吗。

It was dark and he was afraid, but he was more afraid of Abanazar.

//已经没有退路了， Aladdin 这时候最怕违逆 Abanazar 带来杀身之祸。

'You good-for-nothing! You dog! You and the lamp can stay down there!'

//Abanazar 怎么这时候反而没了理智，就不能先把 Aladdin 救上来。

'I am here, master, I am here,' the jinnee cried. 'I am the slave of the ring. What is your wish?'

// Fate stay night 就有相似的对话，而且英灵也是为了实现主人的愿望。

'That dirty old thing?' Aladdin's mother said. 'I must clean it first.' She began to rub it and…

//好心的擦拭，结果学会了使用宝具。

The sellers liked Aladdin because he was good to them.The market children liked Aladdin too, because he gave them money when he walked past.

//《寄生虫》: 有钱人才会善良。

Everybody liked Aladdin.

//想获得人喜欢只要给人们钱就行了。

he said. 'I have no father to do this for me. You must help me—I must marry the Princess. I love her!'

//阿拉伯结婚的传统：必须由长辈提亲。

So the next day, and for many days after that, Aladdin's mother went to the palace, but she was always afraid to speak.

//母亲真滴不容易，明明这么害怕，却一直被儿子催。

'These are very beautiful jewels,' he said. 'No man in Arabia has jewels more wonderful than these. Your son is a rich man — a good husband for my daughter.'

//那时候也有彩礼哇，古老的传统。

The Vizier did not like to hear this, because he wanted the Princess to marry his son.

//强调 his：公主是我儿子的, 挺强势的大臣。

In a second the jinnee was back with the Princess asleep in his arms. He put her carefully on a bed, and then the Princess opened her eyes and saw Aladdin.

//让灯神牵红线

And last came Aladdin, on a beautiful white horse.

//郎骑白马来，绕床送神灯。

'Aladdin must marry my daughter. How can I say no?'

//强调 must: 一是因为言出必行，二是抱了个富女婿。论钱的重要作用。

The jinnee of the lamp worked all night, and the next morning the Sultan saw from his window a beautiful new palace,

//搞什么，是你取媳妇，反而最辛苦的是灯神。

'Mistress,' she said, 'the children in the street are laughing at an old man. He's selling lamps, but not for money. "New lamps for old," he cries. "Give me an old lamp, and you can have a new lamp." So everybody's getting new lamps.'

//我滴天，Abanazar 骗人的技巧太高了。他赌公主不知道神灯的事，表演看似荒诞的行为，背后蕴藏着巨大的利益，而且这是最接近完美的智取，连一点魔法都没用，这是对其他魔法师的无情嘲笑：脑子…比魔法好用。

'Let us drink from one cup, Abanazar,' she said, and smiled at him. 'You first, then me. In my country new husbands and wives always do this.'

//提前放好药，编个理由让 Abanazar 先喝，公主也是个聪明人。

The sword did its work quickly, and Abanazar never opened his eyes again.

//这时候手下留情就是傻瓜，因为实力相差太悬殊，不能留活口。对敌人善良就是对自己残忍。

'Carry this palace, Badr-al-Budur, and me back to our city in Arabia. But leave that dog, Abanazar, here.'

//以前说人是狗是骂人的，现在则是夸人，例如：人不如狗忠诚。讽刺人类反复无常。

But Aladdin always carried the magic lamp with him, day and night.

//一直带身上，Day and night, rain or shine. 毕竟神灯就是全部。
