The Fifth Wish
第五个愿望
The barn door was tightly locked from the outside. Then the children heard Farmer Jenkins’ voice. “ It might be a coyote, ” he said. “ Or maybe someone’s trying to steal our horses, ” the farmer’s son replied. “ Bring the guns, just in case, ” Farmer Jenkins shouted.
谷仓的门从外面紧紧地锁着。 然后孩子们听到了农夫詹金斯的声音。 ”这可能是一只郊狼,”他说。 ”也许有人想偷我们的马,”农夫的儿子回答。 ”把枪拿来,以防万一。”农夫詹金斯喊道。
“ Guns?” Cy gulped. We have to do something, ” Panther whispered. The children looked around. There was no place to hide . Meanwhile Farmer Jenkins was getting closer. “ I’m scared, ” cried Jane just as Panther ran toward the ladder.
”枪?”赛伊咽了一口。 我们必须做点什么,”黑豹低声说道。 孩子们环顾四周。 没有地方躲藏。 与此同时,农夫詹金斯越来越近了。 “我很害怕,”当黑豹跑向梯子时,简喊道。
” I have an idea! ” Panther said. ” Climb back up to the second floor. ” The others wondered what she was up to. The farmer and his son were standing just outside the door. ” Here’s the key to the lock, Pa, ” said the son. He rattled a bunch of keys. “ I guess we have no choice, ” whispered Cy. ”
“我有个主意!”黑豹说。 “爬回二楼。” 其他人都想知道她在干什么。 农夫和他的儿子就站在门外。 “这是锁的钥匙,爸爸,”儿子说。 他把一串钥匙弄得嘎嘎作响。 ”我想我们别无选择。“赛伊说
He climbed back up after Panther. Bobby and Jane quickly followed. ” Help me pull this up, ” Panther ordered. Panther and Cy pulled the ladder up. They dragged it to the open window. ” I get it now, ” smiled Cy.
他在黑豹之后爬了回来。 鲍比和简很快跟上了。 “帮我把这个拉上来,”黑豹命令道。 黑豹和赛伊把梯子拉了上去。 他们把它拖到打开的窗口。 “我现在明白了。
The older children lowered the ladder out from the window. Then they leaned it against the barn. ” Come on, Jane! ” Cy shouted. ” Climb down the ladder. ” ” What if I fall?” She sniffed. ” You won’t. I’ve got you, ” he assured her.
大一点的孩子们把梯子从窗户降下来。 然后他们把它靠在谷仓上。 “来吧,简!”赛伊喊道。 “爬下梯子。” “如果我摔倒了怎么办?”她闻了闻。 “你不会的。我抓住你了,”他向她保证。
