Ch8-Monster of the Deep

CHAPTER EIGHT Monster of the Deep! Sailors were on the top deck. They were yelling and pointing. The giant octopus loosened his hold on Jack and Annie. "The ship!" Jack gurgled before slipping under the water. His head

第八章深海怪！水手们在顶层甲板上。 他们又喊又指。 大章鱼松开了杰克和安妮的手。 “这艘船!”杰克咯咯地笑着，然后滑到水里。 他的头

popped back up. "Swim to the ship!" he shouted to Annie. Jack and Annie started swimming. The sky was still covered with clouds and the sea was still rough. But arm over arm, they swam until they got close to the ladder on the side of the ship. "Ahoy!" someone shouted from above. Jack looked up and saw Henry and the professor standing at the top of the ladder. "Climb up!" yelled Henry. "Hurry, children! Hurry!" cried the professor. "Before it comes back!"

跳了回来。“游到船上去！”他对安妮喊道。 杰克和安妮开始游泳。 天空仍然乌云密布，大海仍然波涛汹涌。 他们手挽着手，一直游到船边的梯子跟前。 “嘿！”有人从上面喊道。 杰克抬起头，看见亨利和教授站在梯子的顶端。 “爬上去！”亨利喊道。“快点,孩子!快点！”教授叫道。 “在它回来之前！”

Jack swam as fast as he could to the ladder. He and Annie got there at the same time. They pulled themselves onto the ladder and climbed. When they reached the top, Henry and the professor helped them onto the deck. Henry wrapped wool blankets around them. "Thank goodness you are saved!" said the professor. "I thought you were below in the hold!" said Henry. "How did you end up in the water?" "The storm… the waves…," gasped Jack, shivering.

杰克以最快的速度向梯子游去。 他和安妮是同时到的。 他们爬上梯子爬上去。 当他们到达山顶时，亨利和教授扶他们上了甲板。 亨利用羊毛毯子裹住他们。 “谢天谢地，你得救了！”教授说。 “我还以为你在下面的货舱里呢！”亨利说。 “你怎么会掉到水里去的？”“暴风雨……海浪……”杰克喘着气说，颤抖着。

"The waves threw us overboard," said Annie. "Why were you up on deck?" said Henry. "I was—I was seasick!" said Jack. "I followed Jack, and big waves came crashing down and washed us into the water!" said Annie. "Our life vests saved us at first," said Jack. "But then they came off!" "Then the octopus saved us," said Annie. "That monster saved you?" asked the professor.

“海浪把我们扔到海里去了，”安妮说。 “你为什么在甲板上？”亨利说。 “我——我晕船了！”杰克说。 “我跟着杰克，大浪冲下来，把我们冲进了水里！”安妮说。 “起初我们的救生衣救了我们，”杰克说。 “但后来它们掉下来了！”“然后章鱼救了我们，”安妮说。 “那个怪物救了你？”教授问。

"No, no, not a monster," said Jack, "a giant octopus!" "Yes, the monster of the deep! I do not think it saved you, boy," said the professor. "It is a miracle it did not eat you and your sister alive!" "No, no, he's—he's not a monster. He didn't try to do any of that—" said Jack. "He did save us!" said Annie. "He held us up above the water." "Really!" said Jack. "He kept us from drowning. Then he got scared away by the ship." "We didn't even thank him, Jack," said Annie. "We didn't say good-bye."

“不，不，不是怪物，”杰克说，“是一只巨型章鱼！”“是的，深海的怪物！”我不认为它救了你，孩子，”教授说。 “它没有把你和你妹妹活活吃掉，真是个奇迹！”“不，不，他不是怪物。 他并没有试图去做这些——”杰克说。 “他确实救了我们！”安妮说。 “他把我们举出水面。” “真的吗？”杰克说。“他让我们免于溺水。 然后他被船吓跑了。” “我们甚至没有感谢他，杰克，”安妮说。 “我们没有说再见。”

Jack and Annie looked back at the water. "Hey, what's going on over there?" said Annie. She pointed to the rear of the ship. Sailors were facing the sea, yelling and shouting. "What are they yelling at?" Annie asked. Jack and Annie threw off their blankets and took off across the deck. They saw Joe and Tommy standing at the edge of the crowd. "What are they doing?" Annie yelled. "What's going on?" "They snared it in the net!" shouted Tommy.

杰克和安妮回头看水。 “嘿，那边发生什么事了？”安妮说。 她指着船的尾部。 水手们面朝大海，大喊大叫。 “他们在喊什么？”安妮问。 杰克和安妮掀开毯子，穿过甲板逃走了。 他们看见乔和汤米站在人群的边缘。 “他们在干什么？”安妮喊道。 “发生什么事了？”“他们把它困在网里了！”汤米喊道。
