In a small village，there was a carpenter named Geppetto. He was very kind.

Geppetto：I am Geppetto. I have no wife and no child. I am lonely. So I make a puppet. His name is Pinocchio. Look，he almost looks alive. I wish my Pinocchio could be a real boy. How nice if he become a real boy ... a real ... boy ... （falls asleep）

A fairy appeared.

Blue Fairy：Geppetto，given that you have given happiness to others，your wish will come true. （walks to Pinocchio） Little puppet！ Wake up！

Pinocchio：I can move！ I can talk！ I can jump！

Blue Fairy：Yes，Pinocchio！ I am the Blue Fairy. I help you come alive！（disappears）

Pinocchio：Dad，Dad，I’m alive！ I can talk！ I can jump！

Geppetto：（wakes up） Oh，my dear. You’re alive！

In the morning，Pinocchio went to school like other students.

Fox：Hey，boy，you are very handsome. You should be an actor or a superstar.

Pinocchio：But I have to go to school anyway.

Cat：School is boring. A star can earn much more money.

Pinocchio：Really？ Let’s go and have a try.

The puppet master saw Pinocchio.

Puppet Master：Oh，that puppet can move and speak. People will pay a lot of money to see him. Hey，boy！ You are very cute. What’s your name？

Pinocchio：I am Pinocchio.

Puppet Master：Do you want to be a superstar？ Do you want to earn much money？

Cat & Fox：Yes，he does.

They sold Pinocchio to the Puppet Master.

Puppet Master：Now you are mine！ Stay here！ You must earn much money for me！

Pinocchio：（cries）Oh，no！

The Blue Fairy appeared.

Pinocchio：Please save me！ I want to go home.

Blue Fairy：Pinocchio，why are you here？

Pinocchio：I wanted to go to school. A master caught me here！ Oops！ My nose is growing longer！

Blue Fairy：Pinocchio，you are lying，so your nose is growing. Your nose becomes longer.

Pinocchio：Sorry. I will not lie again.

Blue Fairy：Good. （says “Magic！ Magic！ Magic！”） Now your nose gets well as before.

Pinocchio：Thank you，Blue Fairy！ I will never tell a lie again，I pledge（保證）！

Pinocchio saw a circus on the road.

Children1：We are going to play. Do you want to join us？

Pinocchio：No. I have to go to school.

Children2：School is boring.

Pinocchio：Let me think ... OK，I’ll go with you！

Next morning，Pinocchio woke up.

Pinocchio：Oh，no！ （cries） My ears changed into donkey ears.

The Blue Fairy appeared again.

Blue Fairy：Why are you a donkey，Pinocchio？

Pinocchio：Because I played with other guys.

Blue Fairy：Pinocchio，you are bad.

Pinocchio：I see. I have learned a lesson this time. I will keep in mind（牢记在心）.

Blue Fairy：This is the last time I trust you. I will take away your donkey ears.

Pinocchio：Thank you，Blue Fairy.

Pinocchio went back home.

Pinocchio：Dad，where are you？

Gull：Geppetto is not here. A big fish came and ate him. Help him，hurry up！

Pinocchio：（swims） Oh，there is the big fish！ I must save my Dad. Oh no！ It is almost swallowing me！

Pinocchio saw a light inside the fish.

Pinocchio：Dad，is that you？

Geppetto：Yes. I looked for you day and night. Last night，this fish came and said he knew where you were. But I ... I was cheated.

Big fish：Achoo！ Achoo！（打噴嚏声）

Geppetto：Wait！ This fish must have a cold. Maybe we can get out of its mouth.

Pinocchio：OK！ I am ready.

Big fish：Achoo！ Achoo！

Geppetto：Yahoo！ We are out！

Geppetto and Pinocchio went back home.

Pinocchio：Dad，I will go to school and study hard. I will never tell a lie，I promise.

The Blue Fairy appeared and she was pleased to find out Pinocchio had become a really good boy.
