THE FAMOUS FIVE ADVENTURES GEORGE'S HAIR IS TOO LONG

乔治的头发太长了

CHAPTER ONE 'Let's go to Windy Cove,' said Julian one fine summer's day in August. 'It's so hot on Kirrin Beach- Windy Cove will be nice and cool. There's always a breeze blowing there.'

“我们去风湾吧，”八月里一个晴朗的夏日，朱利安说。 “麒麟海滩太热了——风湾会很凉爽。” 那儿总是有微风吹。”

'Right,' said Dick. 'What do you say, George?' Well, I wanted to go and have my hair cut,' said George. 'Honestly, it'll be as long as Anne's if I don't have it cut soon.' 'Well, I wish you would have it cut,' said Dick. 'You keep on complaining about it- as if it mattered whether it was short or long.' 'You forget that it matters to George very much, said Julian with a grin. 'People might mistake her for a girl if it grows half an inch longer! Well, for goodness' sake, George, get it cut this afternoon. We pass the hairdresser's on the way to Windy Cove. We'll all go into the dairy and have ice-creams, and wait for you there.'

“好的，”迪克说。“你说呢，乔治？”“嗯，我想去理发，”乔治说。 “老实说，如果我不赶快剪掉，头发会和安妮的一样长。“好吧，我希望你能把头发剪短，”迪克说。 “你一直在抱怨，好像它是长是短很重要似的。“你忘了这对乔治很重要，”朱利安咧嘴笑着说。 “如果头发再长半英寸，人们可能会把她当成女孩！”看在上帝的份上，乔治，今天下午去剪吧。 我们在去风湾的路上经过了理发店。 我们都到奶牛场去吃冰淇淋，在那儿等你。”
