11 You!

Chapter 11 YOU! Warm air filled the tree house. No time at all had passed in Frog Creek. The sky was dark blue. The first stars were out. Jack and Annie were wearing their summer clothes again. "Welcome home," said Annie. Jack sighed with relief. Frog Creek seemed especially nice in the soft twilight. The woods smelled of green trees and green plants. "Let's go," said Jack. He left Morgan's rhyme, the Greenland book, and their note for Leif on the floor of the tree house. Then he put his notebook into his backpack and headed down the rope ladder.

第十一章你！温暖的空气充满了树屋。 青蛙溪一点时间也没有过去。 天空是深蓝色的。第一颗星星出来了。 杰克和安妮又穿上了夏天的衣服。 “欢迎回家，”安妮说。 杰克松了口气。在柔和的暮色中，青蛙溪显得格外美丽。 树林里弥漫着绿树和绿色植物的味道。 “我们走吧，”杰克说。他把摩根的押韵诗、格陵兰岛的书和他们给雷夫的便条留在了树屋的地板上。 然后他把笔记本放进背包，顺着绳梯往下走。

Annie followed. As Jack and Annie started through the woods, the air was filled with the sounds of crickets and tree frogs. "So, do you get it about thanks?" Annie asked. "Uh… sort of, but it seems so ordinary," said Jack. "People say it all the time and they don't even think about it." "Exactly!" said Annie. "So, let's think about it." "Okay…," said Jack. "You say thanks when someone helps you or is nice to you or gives you a gift, right?" said Annie. "Yeah," said Jack. "Leif helped us free the narwhal. And we said thanks," said Annie. "His parents gave us food, and we said thanks. We gave Leif our map, and he said thanks. The narwhal came back and said thanks. And I thanked him for thanking us and for just being

安妮。当杰克和安妮穿过树林时，空气中充满了蟋蟀和树蛙的叫声。 “那么，你明白谢谢的意思了吗？”安妮问。 “嗯……有点像，但看起来太普通了。”杰克说。 “人们总是这么说，但他们甚至都没想过。” “没错！”安妮说。“所以，让我们考虑一下。” “好吧……”杰克说。“当有人帮助你或对你很好或给你礼物时，你说谢谢，对吗？”安妮说。 “是的，”杰克说。“利夫帮我们解救了独角鲸。 我们说了谢谢，”安妮说。 “他的父母给了我们食物，我们说谢谢。 我们把地图给了雷夫，他说谢谢。 独角鲸回来说了声谢谢。 我感谢他感谢我们，感谢他

amazing." "Got it," said Jack. "But what does thanks do?" Annie took a deep breath. "Okay. This is the important part," she said. "When the Vikings say thanks to us and we thank them, our world joins with their world. We unite our worlds, like the rhyme said. Two worlds, a thousand years apart, come together." "Whoa. That's cool," said Jack.

神奇的。”“明白了。”杰克说。 “但是感谢有什么用呢？”安妮深吸了一口气。 “好吧。这是重要的部分。” “当维京人向我们表示感谢，我们也向他们表示感谢时，我们的世界就与他们的世界融为一体了。 我们的世界团结在一起，就像诗里说的那样。 相隔千年的两个世界走到了一起。” “哇。“太酷了，”杰克说。

Jack and Annie came out of the woods and started down the sidewalk. "There's more," said Annie. Her eyes were shining. "When the narwhal says thanks, our world joins with his world, a world in the darkest deep sea no one knows much about. But if people really knew how to thank narwhals just for being amazing and how to hear their thanks, it could change everything… like, it might save them if they're ever in danger…." She sounded close to tears. "Do you get it now?" "Yeah… I do actually," said Jack. "Thanks to you." "No, thanks to you," said Annie. "No, you," said Jack. "You!" said Annie. "You, you, you!" said Jack. "Thanks to BOTH OF US!" shouted Annie. "Come on, we're late," said Jack. He and Annie ran down their dark street.

杰克和安妮从树林里出来，沿着人行道往前走。 “还有，”安妮说。 她的眼睛闪闪发光。“当独角鲸说谢谢的时候，我们的世界就和它的世界结合在一起了，一个在最黑暗的深海里，没有人知道多少的世界。 但如果人们真的知道如何感谢独角鲸的神奇，以及如何听到他们的感谢，这可能会改变一切……比如，如果它们处于危险之中，它可能会拯救它们....” 她的声音几乎要哭出来了。 “你现在明白了吗？”“是的……实际上我知道，”杰克说。 “谢谢你。”“不，多亏了你，”安妮说。 “不，是你，”杰克说。“你！”安妮说。 “你，你，你！”杰克说。 “多亏了我们俩！”安妮喊道。 “快点，我们要迟到了。”杰克说。 他和安妮沿着漆黑的街道跑去。

They crossed their yard. They dashed up the porch steps and banged through the front door. "Mom! Dad! We're home!" shouted Annie. "Thanks for everything!" yelled Jack.

他们穿过院子。他们冲上门廊的台阶，砰地一声穿过前门。 “妈妈!爸爸!我们到家了！”安妮喊道。 “谢谢你做的一切！”杰克喊道。
