The Fourth Wish

第四个愿望

At dinnertime, the children sat around the table to eat. Bobby felt happy to be eating a meal again with his siblings. “ How did you know I was at the well?” he asked them. “ Aunt Martha was getting worried, ” Panther answered. ” We hadn’t seen you all day. ” ” So when we couldn’t find you, we decided to look in the woods, ” finished Cy.

晚饭时，孩子们围坐在桌子旁吃饭。 鲍比很高兴再次和他的兄弟姐妹们一起吃饭。 ”你怎么知道我在井里？”他问他们。 “玛莎阿姨很担心，”黑豹回答。 “我们一整天都没见到你。” “所以，当我们找不到你的时候，我们决定到树林里去找，”塞伊说。

” That’s enough, Jane, ” scolded Panther. Jane was taking more fried chicken than she could eat. “ Leave those for Bobby. ” Panther took the plate away from her. “ That’s okay. Jane can have them all, ” smiled Bobby. The others stared at him in shock.

“够了，简，”黑豹斥责道。 简吃的炸鸡太多了。 ”把这些留给鲍比。” 黑豹把盘子从她手中拿走。 ”没关系。简可以把它们都拿走，”鲍比笑着说。 其他人震惊地盯着他。

“ You’ve been acting strange. Are you okay?” Cy asked in a concerned voice. Bobby nodded and carefully asked, “ What did you do today?” Cy yawned and replied, “ It was really weird. I feel like I’ve been sleeping all day. ” “ Me too, ” said Panther. “ And I don’t remember doing anything. ”

”你一直表现得很奇怪。你没事吧？”赛伊关切地问。 鲍比点点头，小心翼翼地问：“你今天做了什么？” 赛伊打了个哈欠，回答说：“这真的很奇怪。 我觉得我一整天都在睡觉。” ”我也是，”黑豹说。 ”我什么都不记得了。”

“ I didn’t have any dreams, ” Jane said, her mouth full of chicken. “ Aunt Martha says she thinks we went to Mr. Keefer’s, but she’s not sure, ” said Panther. “ Wait a minute. ” Cy looked at Bobby suspiciously. “ Did you see Huey? What did you wish for?”

”我没有任何梦想，”简说，嘴里塞满了鸡肉。 ”玛莎阿姨说，她认为我们去了基弗先生家，但她不确定，”黑豹说。 ”等等。”赛伊怀疑地看着鲍比。 ”你看见休伊了吗？你想要什么？”

So Bobby told them everything, and everyone listened and didn’t say a word. After Bobby finished, he hung his head in shame. “ I’ve always wondered what it would be like to be an only child, ” Panther said after a while. “ It’s no fun, I tell you, ” Bobby said with feeling.

于是鲍比把一切都告诉了他们，每个人都听了，一句话也没说。 鲍比说完后，羞愧地低下了头。 ”我一直在想，当一个独生子女会是什么样子，”黑豹过了一会儿说。 ”我告诉你，这不好玩。
