4 Come Back, Cosmo!

CHAPTER 4 COME BACK, COSMO! "Cosmo?" Kaz called, staring out the window. The ghost dog floated around a tree across the street. He looked up at Kaz and wagged his tail. Then the wind pushed him farther down the street. Kaz didn't think. He just swam... across the attic and down the stairs. "Kaz? Where are you going?" Claire asked as she raced down the stairs behind him. "Kaz? Who's Kaz?" Mrs. Beesley called after Claire. "Cosmo!" Kaz cried, paddling as hard and fast

第四章回来吧，宇宙！“都市性?”卡兹盯着窗外喊道。 那只鬼狗绕着街对面的一棵树漂浮。 它抬头看着卡兹，摇了摇尾巴。 然后风把他推到了街道的另一边。 卡兹没有想。他只是游…… 穿过阁楼，走下楼梯。 “Kaz ?你要去哪儿？”克莱尔一边问一边跟在他后面跑下楼梯。 “Kaz ?Kaz是谁?”比斯利太太在克莱尔身后喊。 “都市性!”卡兹叫道，使劲地划桨

as he could... right over to the open living-room window. "NO!" Claire yelled. Too late. The wind pullllled Kaz through the window and into the Outside. Oh no! "Help! HELP!" Kaz screamed, struggling to get back inside. How could he have forgotten about the wind? He felt Claire's hand pass through his foot, but

他尽可能地……正对着起居室开着的窗户。 “不!”克莱尔喊道。太迟了。 风把卡兹从窗户吹到了外面。 噢,不!“救命!救命!”卡兹尖叫着，挣扎着要回到屋里。 他怎么能忘了风呢？ 他感觉到克莱尔的手穿过了他的脚，但是

she couldn't grab him or pull him back inside. The wind carried Kaz away from Mrs. Beesley's house... and away from Claire. Kaz soon heard footsteps pounding the sidewalk behind him. And Claire's voice: "Kaz! Come back!" "I caaaaaan't," he called. "I can't swim against the wind." Tears sprang to Kaz's eyes. "I'll miss you, Claire!" He waved good-bye. All he could do was ride the wind and see where it took him next. Up ahead, he saw a city bus turn a corner, pull over to the curb, and stop. The door whooshed open, and Cosmo passed through a woman as she stepped off the bus. The woman stopped for a second, looked all around her, and then kept on walking. "Cosmo!" Kaz called. He had blown away from Claire, but maybe he could still catch up with his dog.

她无法抓住他，也无法把他拉回屋里。 风把卡兹吹离了比斯利夫人的家。 远离克莱尔很快，卡兹听到身后人行道上传来沉重的脚步声。 还有克莱尔的声音：“卡兹！回来!”“我没有，”他叫道。 “我不能逆风游泳。” 泪水涌上了和子的眼睛。 “我会想你的，克莱尔！”他挥手告别。 他所能做的就是乘风而上，看看风会把他带到哪里去。 在前面，他看到一辆公共汽车拐了个弯，停在路边。 车门砰的一声开了，Cosmo从一个下了车的女人身边经过。 女人停了一会儿，环顾四周，然后继续往前走。 “都市性!”Kaz调用。他已经离开克莱尔了，但也许他还能赶上他的狗。

He saw Cosmo floating around inside the bus. If the bus stayed parked for another thirty seconds... if the door stayed open... then Kaz would blow right into the bus, too. He pumped his arms and legs. Faster... faster... faster... he was almost there. But the door slammed shut a second and a half before Kaz reached it. As the bus started to pull away, Kaz spotted an open window. He sailed inside. "Woof! Woof!" Cosmo greeted him from the back window of the bus. Kaz swam along the ceiling toward his dog. "Cosmo!" he cried as the dog leaped into his arms. Cosmo licked Kaz all over and wagged his tail. Kaz buried his face in his dog's fur. "I'm so happy to see you, boy." Then Kaz heard a voice outside. "STOP!" the voice called. Kaz glanced out the back window and saw Claire running toward the bus. "STOP, BUS!" she

他看见科斯莫在车里漂来漂去。 如果公共汽车再停30秒…… 如果门一直开着…… 那么卡兹也会被吹到巴士上。 他挥动胳膊和腿。 快……快……快…… 他就快到了。但在卡兹走到门口之前，门砰地关上了一秒钟半。 当巴士开始开走时，卡兹发现一扇开着的窗户。 他航行进去了。“汪!汪!”科斯莫从汽车的后窗向他打招呼。 和子沿着天花板向他的狗游去。 “科斯莫！”当狗跳进他怀里时，他叫道。 科斯莫把卡兹舔了个遍，还摇了摇尾巴。 和子把脸埋在狗毛里。 “我很高兴见到你，孩子。” 然后卡兹听到外面有声音。 “停下！”那个声音喊道。卡兹从后窗向外瞥了一眼，看见克莱尔朝公共汽车跑去。 “停车，公共汽车！

yelled, waving her hands. Her detective bag swung from one hand and Kaz's empty bottle swung from the other. Claire wasn't lost yet! "Hurry, Claire!" Kaz yelled hopefully. "Hurry!" But Claire couldn't run fast enough to catch a bus. Kaz heard a bell ding. A man with a briefcase stood up and made his way to the front of the bus. The bus stopped to let him off. "WAIT!" Claire yelled. She was starting to catch up, but the bus drove away again before she could reach it. The bus traveled another block, then stopped to let an older woman get on. Kaz glanced out the back window. Claire was running hard. "Woof!" Cosmo wagged his tail as though he wanted her to hurry, too. The older woman paid her bus fare. "You

她挥舞着双手喊道。她的侦探包从一只手上晃来晃去，卡兹的空瓶子从另一只手上晃来晃去。 克莱尔还没迷路呢！“快点,克莱儿!”卡兹满怀希望地喊道。 “快点!”但是克莱尔跑得不够快，赶不上公共汽车。 卡兹听到铃声。一个拿着公文包的男人站了起来，向公共汽车的前部走去。 公共汽车停下来让他下车。 “等等!”克莱尔喊道。她开始追赶，但在她到达之前，公共汽车又开走了。 公共汽车又开了一个街区，然后停下来让一位年长的妇女上车。 卡兹从后窗往外看了一眼。 克莱尔拼命地跑着。“汪!”科斯莫摇着尾巴，好像想让她也快点。 老妇人付了车费。 “你
