想知道太阳和月亮的由来吗？阿拉斯加州的因纽特人对此有个理论。
They tell a story about a beautiful girl. She was very nice. In contrast, her brother was a mean little boy. One day he proposed something. "We should go to a party," he said. The girl accepted. First, it was necessary for her to prepare. She arranged her hair and put on nice clothes. This required a lot of time. But the girl worked hard, and soon she had success. She looked perfect.
他们当中流传着一个故事。故事讲的是一个善良的小女孩和她小气的哥哥。有一天，哥哥对妹妹提议说：“我们去参加一个派对把。”小女孩同意了，但首先她得好好准备一下。她要做好发型，穿上好看的衣服，这需要很长时间的准备。但小女孩很用心，最后把自己打扮得很漂亮。
They attended the party together. The girl was having fun. Later, she walked into the bathroom. Suddenly, the lights were turned off! Someone grabbed her hair and tore her clothes. She ran out of the bathroom. She wanted to know who did this to her.
他们一起去参加了聚会，而且小女孩玩得很开心。随后，她走进洗手间，但是洗手间的突然被关掉了！里面有人在抓扯她的头发和衣服，她赶紧从里面跑了出来。她想知道是谁在捉弄自己。
Then she had an idea. She fixed her hair again. This time it was even more beautiful. She even balanced beautiful jewels in it. She wanted to encourage the person to grab it again. She put black dirt in her hair. The purpose of this was to catch the person.
她想出了一个主意。她把头发重新扎了起来，这次打扮得比原来还要好看。她甚至还在头发上带了珠宝。她想引诱那个人再次抓扯她的头发。她在头发上抹了黑泥，这样就能抓住那个捉弄她的人。
She went to the bathroom again, and it was the same pattern. The lights went off, and someone grabbed her hair. When he released it, his hand was black. The girl returned to the party. She knew there was only a single person with a black hand. When she saw that person, he was very familiar. It was her brother!
她再次走进了洗手间，和上次一样，有人关了灯并开始抓扯她的头发。等他松手后手上沾上了黑泥。女孩回到聚会上，她知道只有一个人手上沾了黑泥。她看见那个人之后觉得有些眼熟，然后发现竟然是自己的哥哥！
He ran into the woods. The girl ran after him. They both carried fire so they could see in the dark. The smoke went into the air. As they ran, they grew. They became huge.Then they went into space. When the girls fire went out, she hung in the sky. She became the moon, and her brother became the sun. They chase each other forever.
看着哥哥跑进了树林，她也跟着追了进去。他们手上都拿着火把照明。烟升上了天空，他们在奔跑的过程中越长越大，最后变成了巨人。然后他们飞上了天。女孩手中的火把燃尽了，她就悬在了天空中，变成了月亮。她的哥哥则变成了太阳。就这样，他们开始了永不停息的互相追逐。
