16 Another New Home

CHAPTER 16 Another New Home The doctor's stay turned out to be a wonderful time for everyone. Grandfather enjoyed the company of an older gentleman to share stories and spend time with. Heidi took great joy in showing her friend every corner of the mountain. She finally had the chance to prove the beauty she had once only been able to talk about. And the doctor... he enjoyed the closeness of good friends and the fresh air and freedom of the mountain. Getting away from the city helped

第十六章另一个新家医生的逗留对每个人来说都是一段美好的时光。 祖父喜欢和一位年长的绅士在一起分享故事，共度时光。 海蒂带着她的朋友参观了山的每一个角落，感到非常高兴。 她终于有机会证明她曾经只能在嘴上说说的美丽。 医生……他享受好朋友的亲密，享受山上的新鲜空气和自由。 离开城市有帮助

him forget his troubles and enjoy life again. And so it was a sad day when he finally left. Heidi's heart ached so badly that she sobbed and asked to go along. "No, no, dear child," the doctor said kindly. "You must stay or you will end up sick again. But if I ever need someone to take care of me, you will be the first person I call. May I do that?" "Yes," Heidi answered. "I will come the first day you send for me. I love you nearly as much as I love Grandfather." And so the doctor waved good-bye and started on his way. Heidi looked after him until he became a tiny speck in the distance. As the doctor turned to look back at Heidi and the sunny mountain for the last time, he said to himself, "It is good to be up there good for the body and the soul. A man might learn how to be happy again here." The rest of the autumn seemed to go

他忘记了他的烦恼，再次享受生活。 所以当他最终离开的时候，那是一个悲伤的日子。 海蒂的心疼得很厉害，她哭着要求和她一起去。 “不，不，亲爱的孩子，”医生和蔼地说。 “你必须留下来，否则你会再次生病的。 但如果我需要有人来照顾我，你会是我第一个打电话的人。 我可以这么做吗？”“是的，”海蒂回答。 “你第一天叫我来，我就来。 我爱你几乎和我爱爷爷一样多。” 于是医生挥手告别，出发了。 海蒂照看着他，直到他变成了远处的一个小斑点。 当医生最后一次回头看海蒂和那座阳光明媚的山时，他对自己说：“在那里真好，对身体和灵魂都有好处。 一个人可以在这里学会如何重新快乐起来。” 秋天剩下的时间似乎都过去了

slowly for Heidi, for she dearly missed her friend's company. But finally the fresh snow came to the mountain. Grandfather kept his word and moved Heidi and the goats down to Dorfli. There was an old building near the church that had been abandoned for years. Grandfather had worked through the autumn months to make it sound and tight. Heidi was thrilled with her new home. Living in Dorfli meant that she was able to go to school every morning and afternoon. She worked hard in school and eagerly learned everything that was taught to her. She hardly ever saw Peter there. He said the snow was too deep on the mountain to make it to school. But he always seemed to be able to make his way through the snow to pay Heidi a visit once school was over. Heidi loved seeing Peter each night, but it made her more and more lonesome for Grandmother. Each time she asked to go

海蒂走得很慢，因为她非常想念朋友的陪伴。 但最后，新的雪来到了山上。 爷爷信守诺言，把海蒂和山羊搬到了多夫里。 教堂附近有一座废弃多年的老建筑。 祖父在秋天的几个月里一直在努力使它听起来又结实。 海蒂对她的新家感到很兴奋。 住在多菲里意味着她每天早上和下午都能去上学。 她在学校学习很努力，急切地学习老师教给她的一切。 她几乎没在那儿见过彼得。 他说山上的雪太深了，无法到达学校。 但他似乎总能在放学后穿过雪地去看望海蒂。 海蒂喜欢每天晚上见到彼得，但这让她越来越觉得奶奶很寂寞。 每次她都要求去

visit, Grandfather told her that the snow was too deep. It wasn't until many winter days went by and the sun appeared again that Heidi was finally able to visit the old woman. Heidi was surprised to find her in bed rather than in her corner. "Are you ill, Grandmother?" Heidi asked quickly. "No, no, child," answered the old woman. "It is just the cold getting to me." "So you shall be well when it is warm again?" "Yes. I do so want to get back to my spinning," Grandmother said. Heidi read to the old woman until it was dark. She could actually see the peacefulness spreading over the old woman as she listened to the words of her hymns. How soothing the verses were to her! It didn't seem long, though, until Peter had to put the girl on the back of his sled to head home. The two of

她去看爷爷时，爷爷告诉她雪太深了。 直到许多冬天过去了，太阳又出来了，海蒂才终于能够去看望老妇人。 海蒂惊讶地发现她躺在床上，而不是在角落里。 “你病了吗，奶奶？”海蒂急忙问。 “不，不，孩子，”老妇人回答。 “我只是觉得太冷了。” “那么，等天气暖和起来，你就会好了？”“是的。 我真想回去纺纱，”祖母说。 海蒂读书给老妇人听，直到天黑。 当她听着她的赞美诗时，她可以真切地看到平静在老妇人身上蔓延。 这些诗句对她是多么抚慰人心啊！不过，似乎没过多久，彼得就不得不把女孩放在雪橇的后面回家了。 这两个

them shot down the side of the mountain like two birds darting through the air. When Heidi was lying in bed that night, an idea struck her that she could barely wait to share. But it wasn't until Peter came the next day that she told him her thoughts. "You must learn to read, Peter," she told her friend. "I can read," he said. "Yes, but I mean really read so that you can read to Grandmother. You need to read the hymns." The young girl stared into the boy's eyes. "I will teach you." "But why?" he asked. "You can read them to her on your visits." "She needs to hear them every day, Peter. They make her feel so much better. That is a gift that you can give her. I cannot be there for her the way you can." The young boy put his head down like he

他们像两只在空中飞翔的鸟一样，从山的一边飞奔而下。 那天晚上，当海蒂躺在床上时，她突然想到了一个想法，她迫不及待地想和别人分享。 但直到第二天彼得来了，她才告诉他她的想法。 “你必须学会读书，彼得，”她对她的朋友说。 “我识字，”他说。“是的，但我是说你要读，这样你才能读给奶奶听。 你需要读赞美诗。” 小女孩凝视着男孩的眼睛。 “我来教你。”“为什么？”他问。 “你去的时候可以念给她听。” “她需要每天都听到这些，彼得。 它们让她感觉好多了。 这是你可以给她的礼物。 我不能像你那样陪在她身边。” 小男孩像他一样低着头

was thinking his answer over. "I will learn if you can teach me," Peter said at last. A smile spread over Heidi's face. She knew in her heart that he would do just fine.

正在仔细考虑他的答案。 “如果你能教我，我就去学。”彼得最后说。 海蒂的脸上绽开了笑容。 她心里知道他会做得很好。
