25-AN UNBELIEVABLE SIGHT

AN UNBELIEVABLE SIGHT I wasn't looking forward to my trip back. How would I ever find my way to camp? I could barely see my own whiskers in front of my face! "Heeelp! Heeeelp!" I shrieked in a panic. I wandered around, for who knows how long. Minutes? hours? Oh, how I longed to be back home! Just when I was beginning to lose all hope, I spotted a dim light. I ran toward it, squeaking with glee. Suddenly, Benjamin's snout appeared out

令人难以置信的景象我并不期待回来的旅行。 我怎么才能找到去营地的路呢? 我几乎看不到自己的胡子在我面前!“Heeelp !救命啊!”我惊恐地尖叫起来。 我四处游荡，谁知道过了多久。 分钟吗?小时?啊，我多么渴望回家啊!就在我开始失去所有希望的时候，我看到了一束暗淡的光。 我跑向它，高兴得吱吱叫着。 突然，本杰明的鼻子伸了出来

of the fog. "Uncle! Uncle Geronimo! You're safe!" he squeaked. "I was so worried about you." I hugged him tight. "Oh, how I missed you, dear nephew," I cried. "I love you so much. But why are you out here? It's dangerous." Benjamin hung his head. He knew I had told him not to leave camp. "We were worried you wouldn't find your way back," he explained, twisting his tail. "When nobody was looking, I took a lamp and went searching for you. I know it was wrong," he admitted. I put my paw around my nephew and told him everything was OK. Then, chattering happily. we headed for camp.

雾。“叔叔!Geronimo叔叔!你安全了!”他尖声说。 “我很担心你。” 我紧紧地拥抱着他。“噢，我多么想念你啊，亲爱的侄儿，”我叫道。 “我非常爱你。但你为什么在这里? 是很危险的。”本杰明低下了头。 他知道我告诉过他不要离开营地。 “我们担心你找不到回去的路。”他解释道，扭着尾巴。 没有人看见的时候，我拿着灯去找你。 我知道这是错的，”他承认。 我用爪子搂住侄子，告诉他一切都好。 然后，开心地聊天。我们朝营地走去。

A few minutes later, we passed BY A STEEP ICY CLIFF. Out of the corner of my eye, I noticed a dark shape outlined in the ice. I stopped for a closer look. Big snowflakes WHIRLED around me, blurring my sight. The STEEP CLIFF was terrifying. Still, I was determined to find out more. Yes, the newspaper mouse in me was taking over. I had to get the scoop! I urged Benjamin to stay put. Then, quivering with fear, I climbed up onto an enormous rock. Very carefully, I leaned toward the block of ICE. I brushed off the snow. The shape began to emerge. With shaking paws, I brushed off more snow. I could hardly believe my eyes! I, geronimo stilton, was peering right

几分钟后，我们经过一个陡峭的冰崖。 我眼角的余光注意到冰面上有一个黑色的轮廓。 我停下来仔细看了看。 雪花在我周围旋转，模糊了我的视线。 陡峭的悬崖很可怕。 尽管如此，我还是决心要了解更多。 是的，我的“报纸老鼠”控制了我。 我必须得到独家新闻!我劝本杰明不要动。 然后，我害怕得发抖，爬上一块巨大的岩石。 我小心翼翼地靠向那块冰。 我拂去了积雪。形状开始显现。 我抖着爪子，掸掉了更多的雪。 我简直不敢相信自己的眼睛!我，杰罗尼莫·斯蒂尔顿，正盯着右边看

into the face of a woolly mammoth! He was perfectly preserved within the ICE! What a find! I tried to remember what I knew about the woolly mammoth. It was a prehistoric animal that looked like an elephant, only smaller. It had two very? long tusks and thick brown fur. It became exlinct loward the end of the Pleistocene age. around 11,000 years ago. I grabbed Thea's camera out of my backpack and snapped some shots. This time, no one would think I was making up crazy mouse stories! Back at camp, Thea rushed out to meet me. "So did you find him?" she demanded. "Did you get a picture of the yeti?" I shook my head.

猛犸象的脸!他被完好地保存在ICE里!多好的发现啊!我试着回忆我对长毛象的了解。 这是一种看起来像大象的史前动物，只是更小一些。 它有两个非常?长牙和厚厚的棕色皮毛。 它在更新世末期灭绝了。 大约11000年前。我从背包里拿出西娅的相机，拍了几张照片。 这一次，没有人会认为我在编造疯狂的老鼠故事!回到营地，西娅冲出来迎接我。 “你找到他了吗?”她问。 “你拍到雪人的照片了吗?”我摇了摇头。

Thea groaned, "It figures," she grumbled. Trap swaggered over. "Well, what a surprise, GERRY BERRY," he scoffed. "All the time I thought you saw the yeti. Sometimes here, sometimes there, sometimes in your underwear!" I just shook my head, smiling. We'll see who has the last laugh, Mr. Jokester. "No, I did not find the yeti," I said, sighing; then I paused for dramatic effect. "But I did find a woolly mammoth!" I took out the digital camera and showed them the pictures of the frozen beast. For once, Trap did not make one wisecrack. In fact, he seemed to have lost his voice. He opened his mouth, but not a single squeak came out. Finally, he pulled himself together. "A woolly

西娅呻吟着，“这也算。”她嘟囔着。 陷阱大摇大摆地走过来。“哦，真是个惊喜，格里·贝里，”他嘲笑道。 “我一直以为你看到雪人了。 有时在这里，有时在那里，有时在你的内裤里!”我只是摇摇头，微笑着。 看谁笑到最后，小丑先生。 “不，我没有找到雪人，”我叹了口气说;然后我停顿了一下，以达到戏剧效果。 “但我确实找到了一头长毛象!”我拿出数码相机，给他们看了冰冻野兽的照片。 这一次，特拉普没有说一句俏皮话。 事实上，他似乎已经失声了。 他张开嘴，但连一个吱吱声也发不出来。 最后，他振作了起来。 “长毛
