Ch9-Totally All Right

Totally All Right "Helicopter?" said Jack. "Yes, I received a call on my cell phone from the military," said Dr. Ling. "They're bringing medical supplies and food." "That's great," said Annie. "We need to get our pandas to other reserves," said Dr. Ling. "Until the road is cleared, we will send some by helicopter to Wolong Town. From there, a van will take them to a safe reserve." "That sounds like a good plan," said Jack. Dr. Ling smiled. "I am glad you think so, because I would like to ask you to accompany these three cubs on their first helicopter flight. Do you think your grandmother would mind?" "No problem. We've been in choppers before," Annie said casually. "Antarctica." "Really?" said Dr. Ling. She looked surprised. "Well, good. I'll be right back. I need to speak to

“直升机？”杰克说。 “是的，我的手机接到了一个来自军方的电话，”他说。 凌。“他们带来了医疗用品和食物。” “太好了，”安妮说。 “我们需要把我们的熊猫送到其他保护区去，”李博士说。 凌。“在道路畅通之前，我们将用直升机运送一些到卧龙镇。 从那里，一辆面包车会把他们带到一个安全的保护区。” “听起来是个好计划，”杰克说。 凌博士笑了。“我很高兴你这么想，因为我想请你陪这三只幼崽第一次乘坐直升机飞行。 你觉得你奶奶会介意吗？”“没问题。 我们以前坐过直升机，”安妮漫不经心地说。 “南极洲”。“真的吗？” 凌。她显得很惊讶。 “嗯,好。我马上就回来。 我需要和

the helicopter pilot and make a quick call to our staff in Wolong Town." Dr. Ling started to leave the nursery, then stopped. "Why, I just realized—I don't even know your names," she said. "Jack and Annie," said Annie. Dr. Ling nodded. "Thanks, Jack and Annie," she said, and then left. "This is so cool," Jack said to Annie. "I was wondering how we'd get back to Wolong Town and complete our mission." Annie smiled at Jack. "Remember—things always seem to work out when we just do the next right thing," she said. "Funny how that works," said Jack. "And this way, we won't have to leave the cubs yet," said Annie. She wiped milk off Roly's mouth with her hand and kissed the top of his head. All three cubs had dropped their bottles and were nodding off to sleep. "Can you stay with the kids while I say goodbye to Bing-Bing?" said Jack. "Sure," said Annie. "Say good-bye for me, too."

然后给我们卧龙镇的工作人员打个电话。” 凌医生刚要离开育婴室，又停了下来。 “哎呀，我刚意识到——我甚至不知道你们的名字，”她说。 “杰克和安妮，”安妮说。 凌博士点点头。“谢谢你们，杰克和安妮。”她说完就离开了。 “这太酷了，”杰克对安妮说。 “我在想我们怎么才能回到卧龙镇，完成我们的任务。” 安妮对杰克笑了笑。“记住——当我们做下一件正确的事情时，事情似乎总是会解决的，”她说。 “真有趣，”杰克说。 “这样的话，我们就不用离开小熊们了，”安妮说。 她用手擦去罗利嘴里的牛奶，亲吻了他的头顶。 三只小熊都把奶瓶掉在地上，打起盹来睡着了。 “我和冰冰告别的时候，你能和孩子们呆在一起吗？”杰克说。 “当然，”安妮说。“也替我说再见吧。”

"I will." Jack hurried out the door. He dashed along the path to Bing-Bing's house, sidestepping rubble and glass. Jack found Master Lee sitting with Bing-Bing on the concrete floor. He was quietly feeding her bits of bread from a small, round loaf. For a moment, the earthquake disaster seemed far away. "Bing-Bing loves a snack," Master Lee said, smiling at the panda, "even when the world is turned upside down." "I know," said Jack, kneeling beside them. "I gave her some bamboo in the woods. What's she eating now?" "It's a special treat," said Master Lee. "Here. You can give it to her." He handed Jack the loaf. The bread was very hard. Jack struggled to break off a piece. Bing-Bing opened her mouth wide, and Jack placed the bread on her pink tongue. As the giant panda chewed, she stared at Jack with her wise and gentle gaze. "I thought she ate bamboo," said Jack. "She does," said Master Lee. "This is bamboo, but it's ground up and mixed with molasses,

“我愿意。”杰克匆匆出门。 他绕过碎石和玻璃，沿着小路奔向冰冰的家。 杰克发现李师傅和冰冰坐在水泥地上。 他正在悄悄地用一小块圆面包喂她吃。 一时间，地震灾难似乎很遥远。 “冰冰喜欢吃零食，”李师傅微笑着对熊猫说，“即使世界颠倒了。” “我知道。”杰克跪在他们身边说。 “我在树林里给了她一些竹子。 她现在在吃什么？”“这是一种特殊的款待，”李师傅说。 “在这里。你可以把它给她。” 他把面包递给杰克。面包很硬。 杰克挣扎着掰下一块。 冰冰张大嘴，杰克把面包放在她粉红的舌头上。 当大熊猫咀嚼的时候，她用她睿智而温柔的目光盯着杰克。 “我以为她吃竹子呢，”杰克说。 “是的，”李师傅说。 “这是竹子，但它被磨碎并与糖蜜混合，

grains, and vitamins. It's very healthy. We call it panda bread." Jack turned his head to look at Master Lee. "And it's baked with love?" he said. "Yes…," said Master Lee, looking puzzled. Jack gave him a radiant smile. "Is everything all right?" asked Master Lee. "Yes. Everything's all right," said Jack. "Totally all right." "Good… I'm glad," said Master Lee. "It has been a very difficult day." "It has," agreed Jack. "Annie and I have to take the cubs to Wolong Town, in a helicopter. Would it be okay if I took a little panda bread with me? To show Annie?" "Yes, certainly," said Master Lee. He gave Jack a small hunk of the panda bread. "But don't try to eat it," he said. "It's very—" "Tough," finished Jack. "I know—tough as wood." He put the bread in his backpack. Then he stroked Bing-Bing's fur. "Bye, beautiful," he said. He turned to Master Lee. "Bing-Bing is really lucky to have you in her family, Master Lee."

谷物和维生素。它非常健康。 我们叫它熊猫面包。”杰克转过头看着李师傅。 “是用爱烤的吗？”他说。 “是的……”李师傅说，看起来很困惑。 杰克给了他一个灿烂的微笑。 “一切都好吗？”李大师问。 “是的。“一切都好，”杰克说。 “完全没问题。”“好……我很高兴，”李师傅说。 “这是非常艰难的一天。” “是的，”杰克同意道。“安妮和我必须用直升机把这些幼崽带到卧龙镇。 我可以带点熊猫面包吗？ 给安妮看？”“是的，当然，”李大师说。 他给了杰克一小块熊猫面包。 “但是不要试着吃它，”他说。 “这很——”“很难，”杰克说。 “我知道，像木头一样坚硬。”他把面包放进背包里。 然后他抚摸冰冰的皮毛。 “再见，美女，”他说。 他转向李师傅。“李师傅，冰冰家里有你真是太幸运了。”

The panda keeper nodded shyly. "Thank you," he said. Jack and the giant panda exchanged one last look, then Jack hurried outside. Leaping over the rubble, Jack ran back to the nursery. On his way, he saw that the helicopter had landed on the kindergarten playground. Soldiers in green-and-tan uniforms were unloading boxes. Jack found Dr. Ling and Annie waiting for him. They were holding Roly and Poly. "Jack, if you take the smallest cub, I will help you all get settled in the helicopter," said Dr. Ling. "Sure!" Jack picked up Little Guy. The cub was drowsy and cuddly. "Let's go!" said Dr. Ling. Dr. Ling, Jack, and Annie left the nursery and carried the little pandas outside. Night was falling as they stood in the playground and watched the soldiers finish unloading food and medicine.

熊猫饲养员害羞地点点头。 “谢谢你，”他说。杰克和大熊猫交换了最后一眼，然后杰克急忙跑了出去。 杰克跳过碎石，跑回育儿室。 在路上，他看到直升机降落在幼儿园的操场上。 身穿棕绿色制服的士兵正在卸货。 杰克发现凌医生和安妮正在等他。 他们抱着罗莉和保利。 “杰克，如果你带上最小的幼崽，我会帮你们在直升机上安顿下来。” 凌。“当然!”杰克抱起了小家伙。 这只幼崽昏昏欲睡，很可爱。 “我们走吧！”凌博士说。 凌博士、杰克和安妮离开育婴室，把熊猫抱到外面。 夜幕降临时，他们站在操场上，看着士兵们卸下食物和药品。

"Until you can get all the pandas out of here, how will you take care of them?" asked Annie. "We will set up tents and carry water from the stream and get by as best we can," said Dr. Ling. "I believe people here in China and around the world will help us. I've already had a call from Pandas International. They promised to send powdered milk for the young ones, and they will write about our situation and raise money to help the pandas." "Cool," said Jack. "Hey, in that case…" He reached into his pocket and pulled out the rest of their money. "We'd like to give something for the

“在你把所有的熊猫都弄出去之前，你怎么照顾它们呢？”安妮问。 “我们将搭起帐篷，从小溪里取水，尽我们所能度过难关。” 凌。“我相信中国和世界各地的人们都会帮助我们。 我已经接到熊猫国际的电话了。 他们答应给熊猫宝宝送奶粉，他们会把我们的情况写下来，并筹集资金来帮助熊猫。” “酷，”杰克说。“嘿，那样的话……”他把手伸进口袋，掏出剩下的钱。 “我们想为
