Chapter 3

CHAPTER THREE 'Oh, no! Whatever can we do?' George cried. Julian looked through his binoculars to the spot where the lamb had fallen. There was no sign of it.

第三章啊，不！我们能做什么呢？”乔治哭了。 朱利安通过他的双筒望远镜向羔羊坠落的地方望去。 没有任何迹象。

George and Anne kept their eyes fixed on the sea, watching nervously. Then a little white head bobbed out of the waves and started swimming towards the rocks. It was the lamb!

乔治和安妮的眼睛一直盯着大海，紧张地看着。 接着，一个白色的小头从海浪中浮了出来，开始向礁石游去。 是小羊羔！

'Thank goodness!' said Anne. The lamb had survived the fall and was now pulling itself up on to some rocks. It clambered on to a small ledge and huddled against the cliffs.

“谢天谢地!”安妮说。 那只小羊羔从坠落中幸存下来，现在正爬到一些岩石上。 它爬上一个小岩架，靠着悬崖缩成一团。

'Now what?' said Dick anxiously. For there was no way up and no way down. The little thing was trapped! In the growing wind the waves were getting bigger and bigger, and it was in danger of being swept into the sea.

“现在什么?迪克焦急地问。 因为没有上下之路。 这个小东西被困住了！风越来越大，海浪越来越大，它有被卷进海里的危险。

'Look!' Dick cried suddenly as a brown-and-white farm dog appeared on the clifftop above.

“看!”迪克突然叫了起来，一只棕白相间的农场狗出现在悬崖顶上。

'It's Rikky!' cried julian. 'Doesn't he belong to the farmer, Mr Sanders? How clever- he's fetching his master!'

“这是Rikky !朱利安叫道。 “他不是农场主的吗，桑德斯先生？” 多聪明啊——他来接他的主人了！”
