Ch7-Dianthus

CHAPTER SEVEN Dianthas The unicorn had a broad milk-white chest and graceful neck. A tuft of hair curled under his chin. A long, spiraled horn rose from the middle of his forehead. He stood very still and very tall. His whole body seemed to be glowing.

第七章戴安娜斯独角兽有宽阔的乳白色的胸膛和优美的脖子。 一簇头发卷在他的下巴下。 一个长长的、螺旋状的角从他的前额正中升起。 他站得很高，一动也不动。 他的全身似乎都在发光。

Balor and Grinda just stared at him. They both looked frightened. But Annie stepped forward. "Hi, Dianthus," she whispered. She reached out and gently touched the unicorn's white chest. "Feel, Jack, feel his heart pounding." "Move away!" ordered Grinda. The girl stepped between Jack and Annie. "He is ours and he is coming with us." "He's not yours!" said Annie. "Who are you, anyway?" said Jack. "Where did you come from?" Grinda glared at Jack. "We come from the same magic world he comes from," she said. "He belongs with us, not you. Balor!"

巴洛和格林达只是盯着他。 他们俩看上去都很害怕。 但是安妮走上前去。 “嗨，黛苏斯。”她低声说。 她伸出手，轻轻地摸了摸独角兽白色的胸膛。 “感受一下，杰克，感受一下他的心跳。” “走开！”格林达命令道。 那个女孩站在杰克和安妮之间。 “他是我们的，他要和我们一起去。” “他不是你的！”安妮说。 “你到底是谁？”杰克问。 “你从哪儿来？”格林达怒视着杰克。 “我们和他来自同一个魔法世界，”她说。 “他属于我们，而不是你。 巴洛!”

The boy shoved Annie aside and tried to loop the black rope around the unicorn's neck. But Dianthus reared up and wheeled around, forcing Balor and Grinda out of his way. Dianthus leapt across the tapestry room toward the garden. Jack and Annie followed him through the open doorway into the snowy cloister. Balor and Grinda charged after them. They pushed past Jack and Annie to Dianthus. Balor grabbed the unicorn's blue collar. "You are coming with us, stupid, like it or not!" "Don't pull on him!" yelled Annie. "And don't call him stupid!"

男孩把安妮推到一边，试图用黑绳子套住独角兽的脖子。 但是戴萨斯站起身来，转过身来，把巴洛和格林达推开了。 Dianthus跳过挂毯的房间朝花园跳去。 杰克和安妮跟着他穿过敞开的门，进入了白雪覆盖的回廊。 巴洛和格林达追了上去。 他们从杰克和安妮身边挤过，来到了Dianthus。 巴洛抓住独角兽的蓝领。 “你跟我们走，笨蛋，不管你喜不喜欢！”“别拉他！”安妮喊道。 “别叫他蠢！”

Dianthus tried to back up. "Let go!" screamed Annie. "He doesn't want to go with you!" "He has no choice," said Grinda. "As soon as that rope goes around his neck, all three of us will be instantly transported back to the Castle of the Dark Wizard."

Dianthus试图后退。 “放手！”安妮尖叫道。“他不想和你一起去！”“他别无选择。” “绳子一套上他的脖子，我们三个人就会立刻被送回黑巫师的城堡。”

"No!" Jack shouted. He charged at Balor and tried to grab the rope from his hand. Balor let go of the unicorn's collar and shoved Jack into the snow. Then he turned back to the unicorn and began to swing the magic rope like a lasso. Dianthus reared up again and kicked his legs. Breath from his nostrils billowed into the icy air. "A rhyme, Jack!" yelled Annie. "A rhyme!" Kneeling in the snow, Jack yanked the book from his briefcase. He frantically turned the pages, looking for a rhyme they hadn't used. "Call a Cloud from the Sky?" he shouted to Annie. "Anything!" she called. "Try it!" Jack read the rhyme aloud: Down from high, out of the sky,

“不!”杰克喊道。他冲向巴洛，试图从他手中夺过绳子。 巴洛松开独角兽的项圈，把杰克推到雪地里。 然后他转向独角兽，开始像套索一样挥动那根神奇的绳子。 Dianthus又站起来踢他的腿。 他鼻孔里呼出的气在冰冷的空气中翻滚。 “押韵，杰克！”安妮喊道。 “一个押韵!”杰克跪在雪地里，从公文包里抽出书来。 他疯狂地翻动书页，寻找他们没有用过的押韵。 “叫天上的云来？”他对安妮喊道。 “什么都可以！”她喊道。“试试看!”杰克大声朗读了这首押韵诗：从天而降，

Ee-no-fain-ee-ro-lie! A thick white fog instantly filled the cloister. The fog was so dense that Jack couldn't even see his own hand. "Balor, where are you?" shrieked Grinda. "Here!" the boy yelled. Someone grabbed Jack. He struggled to break free. "Let me go!" he shouted. "It's me!" whispered Annie. "Come on!" Jack stood up, clinging to Annie. They stumbled together through the garden. Feeling their way along the walkway, they came to the door that led to the main hall. "Dianthus, here!" Annie whispered.

Ee-no-fain-ee-ro-lie !一团白色的浓雾立刻笼罩了回廊。 雾太浓了，杰克连自己的手都看不见。 “巴洛，你在哪儿？”格林达尖叫道。 “给！”男孩喊道。有人抓住了杰克。 他挣扎着要挣脱。 “放开我！”他喊道。“是我！”安妮小声说。 “来吧!”杰克站了起来，紧紧抱住安妮。 他们一起跌跌撞撞地穿过花园。 他们沿着走道摸索着走到通往大厅的门口。 “石竹类植物,这里!”安妮小声说。
