Chapter 4

CHAPTER FOUR So away went the Five as fast as they could. It was dark when they reached the town, but that didn't matter, because the street lamps were alight. They made their way to the station, half-running down the main street.

第四章五个人就这样飞快地走了。 他们到达镇上时天已经黑了，但没关系，因为街灯还亮着。 他们沿着大街半跑半跑地向车站走去。

'Look- there's Robin Hood on at the cinema here,' said Anne. 'Look at the posters!' 'And what's that on at the hall over there?' said George. 'Timmy, come here- oh, he's shot across the road. Come HERE, Timmy!' But Timmy was running up the steps of the Town Hall. Julian gave a sudden laugh. 'Look- there's a big dog show on there -and old Timmy must have thought he ought to go in for it!' 'He smelt the dogs there,' said George, rather cross. 'Come on- let's get him, or we'll miss the next train.' The hall was plastered with posters of dogs of all kinds. Julian stopped to read them while George went in after Timmy.

“看——这儿的电影院在放《罗宾汉》，”安妮说。 “看那些海报！”“那边大厅里在演什么？”乔治说。 “蒂米，过来——哦，他在马路对面中弹了。 过来，蒂米！”但蒂米正跑上市政厅的台阶。 朱利安突然大笑起来。 “瞧——那儿有一场盛大的狗秀——老蒂米一定认为他应该去参加！”“他闻到了那里有狗的味道，”乔治很生气地说。 “快点——我们去找他，不然就赶不上下一班火车了。”大厅里贴满了各种狗的海报。 朱利安停下来看，乔治跟着蒂米进去了。

'Some jolly valuable dogs here,' he said. 'Some beauties, too- look at the picture of this white poodle. Ah- here comes Tim again, looking very sorry for himself. I bet he knows he wouldn't win a single prize- except for brains!'

“这儿有几条很有价值的狗，”他说。 “也有美女——看看这只白色贵宾犬的照片。” 啊——蒂姆又来了，一副很难过的样子。 我敢打赌，他知道自己一个奖也拿不了——除了脑子！”

'It was the doggy smell that made him go to see what was on,' said George.' 'He was awfully cross because they wouldn't let him in.'

乔治说：“是狗的味道让他去看看有什么事。”“他非常生气，因为他们不让他进去。”

'Hurry up -I think I can hear a train coming!' said Dick, and they all raced down the road to the station, which was quite near.

“快点——我想我听到火车来了！”迪克说，于是他们都沿着大路奔向车站，那里离火车站很近。
