小屁孩日记 · 15 Deep End
The only person who didn't jump was MANNY. He had climbed back down into the camper van and was sitting in the DRIVER'S seat. The rest of us were freaking out, because the camper van was about to hit the BRIDGE. But at the last second Manny pulled the wheel hard to the right, and the camper van started to TURN. And when it reached the bridge the camper van snapped into place like a puzzle piece.
唯一没跳车的人就是曼尼。 他爬回了露营车,正坐在驾驶座上。 我们其他人都快吓疯了,因为露营车马上就要撞桥了。 但就在最后一秒,曼尼猛地把方向盘向右打,露营车开始转弯了。 开到桥边时,露营车刚好卡进空位,就像一块拼图完美对上了。
Manny wash't FINISHED, though. He grabbed something out of the glove compartment, then he shot off the flare gun for the second time this trip. Even though it was still raining hard, the flare lit up the sky. A few minutes later we saw headlights coming our way. At first I thought people were coming to RESCUE us. But when they got to the bridge they just kept GOING.
不过曼尼还没忙活完呢。 他从手套箱里掏出一样东西,这是我们这趟旅程第二次发射信号弹了。 尽管雨还下得很大,信号弹还是照亮了整片天空。 几分钟后,我们看到有车灯朝这边开过来。 一开始我以为他们是来救我们的。 可他们开到桥边之后,就直接开走了。
It took a full HOUR for all the vehicles to cross to the other side.
所有车辆全部开到对岸,整整花了一个小时。
And when the very last motorcyle drove over the briage, the only thing we could hear was the rain.
最后一辆摩托车开过桥后,我们耳边只剩下下雨的声音。
Saturday After the campsite emptied out, we were the only ones LEFT. With all the people gone, we were finally able to enjoy ourselves. And, for once, Campers" Eden lived up to its NAME. So all it took for this place to turn into paradise was for everyone else to LEAVE. Two days after the storm, the delivery truck came back to supply the camp store. And that night we ate like KINGS.
周六露营地的人都走光后,就只剩下我们了。 所有人都离开后,我们终于能好好享受假期了。 这一回,伊甸园露营地总算名副其实了。 原来这块地方要变成天堂,只需要其他所有人都走光。 暴风雨过去两天后,补给车回来给营地商店补货了。 那天晚上,我们吃得像国王一样丰盛。
We had the whole lake to ourselves, too. And, since the water was nice and deep, we actually had FUN.
整片湖也都归我们独享了。 而且湖水宜人又深邃,我们真的玩得特别开心。
