2. Where Is Fern

Where is Fern? "Fern is here!" said Kirsty. "Thank goodness I sat down on that fairy dust!" Rachel said. The girls walked all around the tower, looking under bushes and inside sweet-smelling flowers. As they walked, they softly called Fern's name. But the Green Fairy was nowhere to be found.

弗恩在哪儿?“芬在这儿!” “谢天谢地，我坐在了仙尘上!”瑞秋说。 女孩们绕着塔楼走了一圈，在灌木丛下和芬芳的花朵里寻找。 他们一边走，一边轻轻地叫着弗恩的名字。 但是绿仙女却无处可寻。

"You don't think the goblins have already caught her, do you?" Rachel asked. She was worried. "I hope not," replied Kirsty. "I'm sure Fern was here, but now it seems like she's somewhere else." "Yes, but where?" Rachel looked around the garden helplessly. "Maybe there's magic around to help us," Kirsty said. She looked down at the tiny leaves. Some of them fluttered across the garden. "I know, let's follow the fairy dust!"

“你不会认为半兽人已经抓住她了吧?”雷切尔问道。 她很担心。“我希望不会，”柯斯蒂回答。 “我敢肯定芬在这儿，但现在她好像在别的地方。” “是的，但是在哪儿呢?”雷切尔无助地环顾花园。 “也许周围有魔法可以帮助我们，”科斯蒂说。 她低头看着那些小小的叶子。 其中一些飞过花园。 “我知道了，我们跟着仙尘走吧!”

The bright green leaves floated over to a narrow path. The path led into a beautiful orchard. Rachel could see apples, pears, and plums growing on the

翠绿的树叶飘到了一条狭窄的小路上。 这条小路通向一个美丽的果园。 瑞秋可以看到树上长着苹果、梨和李子

trees. "It's a magic trail!" Kirsty breathed. "Quick, let's keep following the fairy dust," Rachel said. Rachel and Kirsty set off down the path, which twisted and turned through the fruit trees. Suddenly, the path led them into a large clearing. Kirsty's eyes opened wide when she saw what was in front of them. "It's a maze!" she cried. The thick, green hedges loomed above them, their leaves rustling in the breeze. Rachel nudged Kirsty. "Look!" She pointed. "The fairy trail leads right into the maze!" "We'll have to take that path," Kirsty said bravely.

树。“这是一条神奇的小径!”呼吸。 “快，我们继续跟着仙尘走吧。”瑞秋说。 瑞秋和科斯蒂沿着小路出发了，小路在果树间蜿蜒曲折。 突然，这条小路把他们带进了一大片空地。 看到眼前的情景，科斯蒂睁大了眼睛。 “这是个迷宫!”她叫道。浓密的绿色树篱在他们头顶若隐若现，树叶在微风中沙沙作响。 瑞秋推了推科斯蒂。“看!”她指出。 “这条仙女小径直通迷宫!”“我们必须走那条路，”科斯蒂勇敢地说。

The two girls followed the floating fairy leaves through the narrow maze entrance. Kirsty felt a little bit scared as the fairy dust led them one way, then another. What if the trail ran out and they got lost in the maze? "Maybe there will be another clue in the middle of the maze," Rachel said hopefully. "Or maybe Fern will be there!" Kirsty added. They turned one more corner and, suddenly, the hedges parted to reveal the middle of the maze. An oak tree stood in the very center. The fairy dust led right to the bottom of the tree, then stopped.

两个女孩跟着飘浮的仙叶穿过狭窄的迷宫入口。 当仙尘把他们带向一个又一个方向时，科斯蒂感到有点害怕。 如果他们在迷宫里迷路了怎么办? “也许在迷宫中间会有另一条线索，”瑞秋满怀希望地说。 “说不定芬也会在那儿呢!”基补充道。 他们又拐了一个弯，突然，树篱分开了，露出了迷宫的中央。 一棵橡树站在正中央。 仙尘一直飘到树底，然后停了下来。

"Fern must be here!" Rachel said excitedly. Kirsty frowned. "Yes, but where?" she asked, looking around. Tap! Tap! Tap! The two girls jumped. "What was that?" Rachel gasped. There it was again. Tap! Tap! Tap!

“弗恩一定在这儿!”瑞秋兴奋地说。 基皱起了眉头。“是的，但是在哪里呢?”她环顾四周问道。 利用!利用!利用!两个女孩跳了起来。 “那是什么?”瑞秋深吸一口气。 它又出现了。利用!利用!利用!
