8 Why We Hate Pirates So Much

CHAPTER 8 WHY WE HATE PIRATES SO MUCH Now, in case you're wondering why we hate pirates so much, it's because—as both Jill and I have already mentioned—we were all captured by a pirate. And not just any pirate. We were captured by the worst pirate of them all: Captain Woodenhead. Do you remember that wooden head we found in the shark? If you don't, go back and have a look.

现在，如果你想知道我们为什么那么讨厌海盗，那是因为——正如吉尔和我已经提到过的——我们都被海盗俘虏了。 而且不是一般的海盗。我们被最坏的海盗——伍登黑德船长俘虏了。 你还记得我们在鲨鱼身上发现的那个木头吗？ 如果没有，回去看一看。

If you do remember the wooden head, then you'll already know what a horrible-looking pirate Captain Woodenhead was and you can go straight to the start of the next paragraph and read the rest of our story— then you'll understand why we hate pirates so much.

如果你还记得那个木头脑袋，那么你就已经知道伍德黑德船长是一个多么可怕的海盗了，你可以直接进入下一段的开头，阅读我们故事的其余部分——然后你就会明白为什么我们如此讨厌海盗了。

As Jill has already mentioned Captain Woodenhead was one of the most terrifying horrible and hideous wooden-headed pirates ever to sail the seven seas. Sure, he rescued us all, but only to turn us into his pirate slaves... even the animals!

吉尔已经提到过，伍登黑德船长是七大洋上最可怕、最可怕、最丑陋的木脑袋海盗之一。 当然，他救了我们所有人，但只是为了把我们变成他的海盗奴隶…… 即使是动物！

As for me and Terry and Jill, Captain Woodenhead, forced us to peel enormous piles of potatoes.

至于我、特里和吉尔，伍登黑德船长强迫我们削一大堆土豆。
