Chapter 6

Chapter SIX After lunch we all followed Miss Cherry to the archery room, including Oscar. Jasper raced towards the dressing-up box and pulled out the bowman's outfit. 'I'm just like Robin Hood now!' he cried, putting it on over his clothes. Then it was time for an archery lesson. A lady came in and showed us how

第六章午饭后，包括奥斯卡在内，我们都跟着切里小姐去了射箭室。 贾斯帕跑向化妆箱，拿出弓箭手的装备。 “我现在就像罗宾汉！”他叫道，把它套在衣服上。 然后是射箭课的时间。 一位女士走了进来，教我们怎么做

to use a bow and arrow. We had to shoot it across the room and try and hit the target on the other side. 'It's really hard, said Sashi as her arrow went flying up towards the high ceiling.

使用弓和箭我们必须把它射到房间的另一边，试着击中另一边的目标。 “这真的很难，”Sashi说，她的箭飞向高高的天花板。

'Really hard!' agreed Jasper. 'Even with my bowman's outfit on!' Oscar was the last to have a turn. 'Wow!' said everyone as Oscar's arrow hit the bullseye. 'Amazing!' 'Well done!' said the lady, sounding really impressed. 'See if you can do it again!' She handed Oscar another arrow and Oscar shot it right in the bullseye for the second time. 'Double wow!' said the lady. 'You are really talented.' 'Woahhhh!' said the class, and Jasper's eyes almost popped out of his head. 'You are awesome, Oscar!' he said.

“真的很难!贾斯帕同意道。 “即使我还穿着弓箭手的装备！”奥斯卡是最后一个轮到他的。 “哇!当奥斯卡的箭射中靶心时，大家都说。 “神奇!“干得好！”那位女士说，听起来很有感触。 “看看你能不能再做一次！”她又递给奥斯卡一支箭，奥斯卡第二次射中了靶心。 “双哇!夫人说。 “你真的很有才华。“Woahhhh !全班同学说，贾斯帕的眼睛几乎要跳出来了。 “你太棒了，奥斯卡！”他说。

Oscar shuffled his feet with embarrassment but I could tell he was really pleased. 'I can teach you how to do it sometime, if you like,' he offered. Jasper nodded his head eagerly. 'Yes please!' he said. After the archery we made our way upstairs and looked around some of the other rooms including the one full of swords and shields, and the tall turret with one hundred steps leading up to it. Samantha found the princess outfit in the royal bedroom.

奥斯卡尴尬地拖着脚，但我看得出他真的很高兴。 “如果你愿意，我什么时候可以教你怎么做，”他主动提出。 贾斯帕急切地点了点头。 “是的,请!他说。射箭比赛结束后，我们上了楼，参观了其他的房间，包括摆满剑和盾牌的房间，还有一个有一百级台阶的高塔。 萨曼莎在王室卧室里发现了公主装。

'It's time for the last room!' said Miss Cherry once we were back on the ground floor again. 'It's the chapel. I expect there's one more costume left in there too. Who isn't dressed up yet?' 'Me!' said Dominic. 'I want to be a knight or a bowman!' 'Oh dear,' said Miss Cherry. 'I'm afraid it's more likely that you'll be a monk.' The chapel was a very beautiful room with high arched ceilings and lots of

“到最后一个房间了！”我们一回到一楼，切里小姐就问道。 “是礼拜堂。我想里面还有一套戏服。 谁还没打扮好？“我!多米尼克说。 “我想当骑士或弓箭手！”“哦，天哪，”切里小姐说。 “恐怕你更有可能当个和尚。”礼拜堂是一个非常漂亮的房间，高高的拱形天花板，还有很多

carvings covered in a thin layer of silver called silver leaf. Joined on to the chapel was another fancy room with a huge complicated-looking instrument in it. 'Oh my!' said Dad. 'An organ! I would so love to be able to play the organ! Very gothic and vampire-y, don't you think?' He sat down on the seat and started to press the notes. A tuneless song came out and everyone put their fingers in their ears. 'Dad,' I hissed. I don't think you're supposed to touch that!' 'It's quite all right, said an official- looking man who was standing nearby. 'We encourage people to have a go on the instruments. In fact, he said, gesturing

雕刻品上覆盖着一层薄薄的银，叫做银叶。 与礼拜堂相连的是另一间华丽的房间，里面有一架看起来很复杂的巨大乐器。 “哦,我的天!爸爸说。“一个器官!我真希望能演奏管风琴！非常哥特式和吸血鬼的风格，你不觉得吗？”他坐在座位上，开始按那些音符。 一首无调的歌传出来，每个人都用手指堵住了耳朵。 “爸爸，”我嘶嘶地说。我觉得你不应该碰那个！“没关系，”站在旁边的一个官员模样的人说。 “我们鼓励人们尝试一下这些乐器。 事实上，他打手势说
