19-DAY 4：THURSDAY

DAY 4: THURSDAY The next morning, I woke up to a pair of singing birds. The sun warmed my fur. I stretched. For the first time since I'd arrived in the jungle, I felt great. But what was different about today? I just couldn't put my paw on it. Then it hit me—a bucketful of icy water right in my snout! Penelope Poisonfur snickered, then she barked out orders. "LINE UP! she squeaked. "Today you will learn to use a compass. Each of you must find your way to our next CAMPSITE before nightfall. And you must do it on your own!" I shuddered. "BUT I'M AFPAID TO BE LEFT ON MY OWN IN THE FOPEST!" I cried. Too late. Everyone had already left.

第四天:星期四第二天早上，我醒来时听到一对鸟儿在唱歌。 太阳温暖了我的皮毛。我紧张。 自从我来到丛林以来，我第一次感觉很好。 但今天有什么不同呢? 我只是不能把爪子放在上面。 然后我突然想到——一桶冰水正好流进我的鼻子里!佩内洛普暗自发笑，然后大声下令。 “排队!她发出“吱吱”的响声。“今天你们将学习使用指南针。 你们每个人必须在天黑前找到下一个营地。 你必须自己去做!”我战栗。 “可是，我却要被一个人留在森林里!”我哭了。 太迟了。每个人都已经离开了。

I was alone in the forest. This was worse than the time I got separated from my uncle Nibbles at the Marvelous Mouse Tail Circus. At least that time, the rat clowns kept me laughing. Now there wasn't a rodent in sight. Monkeys SHRIEKED at me from the trees. Snakes HISSED from behind rocks. Even the singing birds sounded SERRY. I jumped at every noise. I was like a furry rubber band ready to snap. I decided I'd better study the map. This will be as easy as cheesepie, I told myself. All I had to do was figure out how to get to the camp. "Um, let's see," I mumbled. "I am here, or maybe I'm here. And then I'm headed there or maybe there?" I checked

我独自一人在森林里。 这比我在神奇老鼠尾巴马戏团和我的小啃叔走散那次还糟糕。 至少那时候，老鼠小丑逗得我哈哈大笑。 现在看不见一只啮齿动物了。 猴子从树上向我尖叫。 蛇从岩石后面发出嘶嘶声。 即使是唱歌的鸟儿也听起来很抱歉。 我一听到声音就跳起来。我就像一根毛茸茸的橡皮筋，随时会断裂。 我决定我最好研究一下地图。 我对自己说，这就像奶酪饼一样简单。 我所要做的就是想办法去营地。 “嗯，让我想想，”我咕哝着说。 “我在这儿，也许我在这儿。 然后我要去那里或者那里?”我检查过了

the compass. North, South, East, West. It wasn't as easy as I'd thought. I tried giving myself a pep talk. "You can figure it out, Stilton," I insisted. "Just use your brain!" But my brain must have been taking a cheese break. Half an hour later, I burst into tears. "Rotten rat's teeth!" I squeaked. "I'm lost!" I roamed the jungle for hours. Every now and then, I would stop to have a good cry. Oh, how could my family do this to me? They said they wanted to help me, but maybe they just wanted to get rid of me! Yes, that had to be it! If I were gone, my sister would probably sell The Rodent's Gazette. She'd buy a beauty salon and get her fur done every day for free. My cousin would move into my large, comfy mouse hole. He was such a slob. He'd make a mess of my

指南针。北，南，东，西。 这并不像我想的那么容易。 我试着给自己打气。 “你能想出办法的，斯蒂尔顿，”我坚持说。 “动动脑筋吧!”但我的大脑一定是在吃奶酪休息。 半小时后，我泪流满面。 “烂老鼠的牙!”我发出“吱吱”的响声。 “我迷路了!”我在丛林里漫游了好几个小时。 每隔一段时间，我都会停下来好好哭一场。 我的家人怎么能这样对我? 他们说他们想帮助我，但也许他们只是想摆脱我!是的，一定是这样!如果我走了，我妹妹可能会卖掉《啮齿动物公报》。 她会买一家美容院，每天免费做头发。 我的表弟会搬进我又大又舒适的老鼠洞。 他真是个懒汉。他会把我的

pretty cat-fur rug. Just thinking about it made me angry. "I'm going to make it back if it kills me!" I cried, stamping my paw. Suddenly, I heard a rustling sound in the leaves. I gulped. Maybe I shouldn't have used the word kill. I didn't want to give some wild animal any ideas! Grabbing a big stick for protection, I hid behind a tree. Just then, I saw a bush move. "Take that, you wild animal!" I shrieked, striking with all my might. "Oooouch!' a voice cried out. A

漂亮的猫毛地毯。一想到这件事我就生气。 “就算我死，我也要回来!”我跺着爪子叫道。 突然，我听到树叶中有沙沙的声音。 我一饮而尽。也许我不该用"杀"这个词。 我不想给一些野生动物任何想法!我抓了一根大棍子作保护，躲在树后。 就在那时，我看到一丛灌木在动。 “拿去吧，你这野兽!”我尖叫着，使出全身的力气。 “Oooouch !一个声音喊道。 一个

rodent crawled out from behind the bush. No, it wasn't a wild animal at all. It was Burt Burlyrat. "Oh, I'm so sorry, B.B.!" I apologized. "I thought you were about to attack me!" Burt rubbed his head. He looked annoyed.

啮齿动物从灌木丛后面爬了出来。 不，它根本不是野生动物。 是伯特·伯利拉特。“哦，我很抱歉，宝贝!”我道歉。 “我还以为你要攻击我呢!”伯特揉揉他的头。 他看上去很恼火。

By now, he had sprouted a huge bump on his forehead. I felt bad about the bump. But I didn't feel bad about running into B.B. With his help, I could definitely get to the NEW CAMP. After all, B.B. had said he was a forest ranger. A forest ranger should be able

这时，他的额头上长出了一个巨大的肿块。 我对那个肿块感到很难过。 但我并没有因为撞见b。b。而感到难过 在他的帮助下，我一定能进入新阵营。 毕竟，b。b。说过他是护林员。 一个护林员应该可以
