Meet Dolly the high-wire hamster... who hauls herself back onto the tightrope when she takes a tumble. 来看看这只可爱的高空绳索小仓鼠Dolly吧...当它翻筋斗时会拉着绳子把自己悬吊在绳索上。A high-wire hamster who loves to show off her circus skills almost came a cropper when she slipped off a tightrope in the middle of a routine.一只会走空中绳索的小仓鼠非常喜欢展示它的杂技技巧,当它顺着绳子滑到绳中央的时候就像是要栽跟头一样。
Dolly s delightful trick could have ended in trauma as the cute critter misplaced a paw. But, teetering on the edge, she managed to haul herself up to finish off her routine.Dolly的这些滑稽的小把戏本会使它伤痕累累,这个可爱的小动物可能会伤掉它的小爪子。但是结果却是它摇摇晃晃的爬到了绳子边缘,它成功的用手抓着绳子完成了这段距离。
Luckily she was only inches from the ground, and would not have suffered injury had she taken a tumble.幸运的是它离地面只有几尺高,如果它栽了个跟头也不会受伤。请访问百考试题网站http://www.100test
These adorable photographs were taken by keen photographer Mirko Waltermann, 37, at his home in Hamm, Germany.这些让人喜爱的照片是由37岁的机灵的摄影师Mirko Waltermann在他德国哈姆的家中拍摄的。He said: "Dolly is very curious and funny - she likes to play and hang on the rope for a couple of minutes or so at a time before having a break and starting all over again.She really enjoys performing for us and I m pretty sure she is showing off. She likes to be the centre of attention.My daughter Lara has had her for three years now and she doesn t seem to be slowing down, if anything it is harder to get her off it.As much as she loves it though I think her favourite trick is to hide somewhere so all the family has to search for her."
他说:“Dolly很有好奇心并且很有趣,它喜欢玩着悬在绳子上并持续好几分钟,然后休息一下,另起炉灶,重新再来一遍。它真的很喜欢为我们表演,我敢确定它这是在炫耀它自己。它喜欢成为人们关注的焦点。我的女儿Lara已经养了它三年了,不管任何事都不会让她停止了,她会一直养着它。她非常的喜欢它,尽管它最喜欢的把戏就是把自己藏起来,让全家人到处找它。”
