4 Out with the Goats

CHAPTER 4 Out with the Goats Heidi awoke the next morning with a smile on her face. She felt so happy in her new home. She remembered all the things that she had seen the day before and was excited to see them again today. She quickly jumped out of bed and ran outside, joyful at the sound of Peter's voice. While Heidi washed and made herself tidy, Grandfather packed a good lunch for her. In minutes she was out on the mountainside with the goats. "Come along," Peter yelled to Heidi. "Your

第四章和山羊一起出去第二天早上海蒂醒来时脸上带着微笑。 她在新家感到很开心。 她想起了前一天看到的所有东西，今天又能看到它们，她感到很兴奋。 听到彼得的声音，她很高兴，赶紧跳下床跑了出去。 当海蒂洗漱、整理自己的时候，爷爷为她准备了一顿丰盛的午餐。 几分钟后，她和山羊一起来到了山坡上。 “走吧，”彼得对海蒂喊道。 “你的

grandfather gave me orders to watch you!" Heidi listened to what he said and followed the boy until he slowed to rest his goats. Peter checked on his herd and then fell asleep on the warm ground. Heidi sat near him. Suddenly she heard a loud cry overhead. Lifting her eyes, Heidi saw a bird. It was larger than any she had ever seen before. It had great, spreading wings and was wheeling around and around in wide circles. "Peter, Peter, wake up!" called out Heidi. "See the great bird! Look! Look!" Peter got up and they watched the bird together until it disappeared behind the mountaintops. "Where has it gone?" asked Heidi. "Home to its nest," said Peter. "Let's go see!" Heidi answered with glee. "No!" Peter said firmly. "Even the goats can't climb that high. Stay here while I get lunch."

爷爷让我看着你的！”海蒂听了他说的话，跟着男孩，直到他放慢脚步让山羊休息。 彼得检查了一下他的牛群，然后在温暖的地上睡着了。 海蒂坐在他旁边。突然，她听到头顶上传来一声大叫。 海蒂抬起眼睛，看见一只鸟。 它比她以前见过的任何东西都大。 它长着巨大的翅膀，在大圈子里不停地旋转。 “彼得，彼得，醒醒！”海蒂喊道。 “看那只大鸟！”看！看!”彼得站了起来，他们一起看着那只鸟，直到它消失在山顶后面。 “它去哪儿了？”海蒂问。 “回巢去。”彼得说。 “我们去看看吧！”海蒂高兴地回答。 “不!”彼得坚定地说。“即使是山羊也爬不了那么高。 待在这儿，我去吃午饭。”

Heidi frowned, but only for a second. The goats were playing about her and she wanted to join them. "Tell me their names," she sang to Peter as he placed her bread and cheese before her. "That one with big horns is Turk. He always wants to ram the other goats. Most of them run when they see him coming. The only one who stays is Greenfinch. She is the little goat there. She's very brave and so quick that Turk often doesn't see her coming." All of a sudden Peter leaped to his feet and ran after one of the goats. Heidi followed him as fast as she could. They dashed through the middle of the flock and toward the side of the mountain. By the time Peter reached the mountainside, Greenfinch was leaping in the direction of the cliff. Peter threw himself down and grabbed one of her hind legs. The

海蒂皱了皱眉，但只是一秒钟。 山羊在她周围玩耍，她想加入它们。 “告诉我他们的名字，”彼得把她的面包和奶酪放在她面前时，她对彼得唱道。 “那个长着大角的是土耳其人。 他总是想欺负别的山羊。 当他们看到他来时，大多数人都跑了。 唯一留下来的是绿翅鸟。 她就是那只小山羊。 她非常勇敢，行动迅速，以至于特克常常看不到她的到来。” 突然，彼得跳了起来，追赶一只山羊。 海蒂尽可能快地跟着他。 他们冲过羊群，向山那边跑去。 彼得到达山腰的时候，绿翅雀正朝着悬崖的方向跳跃。 彼得扑了下去，抓住了她的一条后腿。 的

goat was surprised and began to bleat angrily. She tried to get free and wriggled so much that Peter had to call to Heidi for help. Heidi ran right up. She saw the danger both Peter and the animal were in and quickly gathered a bunch of sweet-smelling leaves. She held them under Greenfinch's nose, saying, "Come on, Greenfinch! You must not be naughty! Look, you might fall down there and break your leg." The young animal quickly turned and began to eat the leaves out of Heidi's hand. Meanwhile Peter stood up and took hold of Greenfinch by the band around her neck. Heidi took hold of her other side in the same way. Together they led the wanderer back to where the rest of the flock was feeding peacefully. Now that they were back to safety, Peter wasted no time in scolding the animal. He lifted his stick as he yelled, ready to give her

山羊很惊讶，开始生气地咩咩叫。 她想挣脱，扭动得太厉害了，彼得不得不叫海蒂来帮忙。 海蒂立刻跑了上去。她看到彼得和那只动物都处于危险之中，于是迅速收集了一束散发着香味的树叶。 她把它们放在绿雀的鼻子底下，说：“来吧，绿雀！你不能淘气！瞧，你可能会从那里摔下来摔断腿的。” 小动物很快转过身来，开始吃海蒂手里的叶子。 与此同时，彼得站起来，抓住绿翅雀脖子上的带子。 海蒂用同样的方式抓住了她的另一边。 他们一起把这个流浪者带回到了其他企鹅正在安静地进食的地方。 现在他们安全回来了，彼得立刻斥责了那只动物。 他一边喊一边举起棍子，准备给她

a good swat as punishment. "No, no, Peter," Heidi cried out. "You must not hit her. See how frightened she is!" "She needs it," Peter growled and lifted his stick again. Heidi quickly put herself between the boy and the goat. "You have no right to touch her. It will hurt her. Leave her alone!" Peter looked with surprise at the little girl. He thought about how kind she was. Heidi had given him most of her lunch today just because she thought he looked hungry. No one had ever done such a nice thing for him. And now she wanted to spare this naughty animal. Peter put down the stick. "I will let her go if you will give me some more of your cheese tomorrow," he said. He was still frowning about the scare the goat had given him. "You shall have it all, tomorrow and every day," replied Heidi. "I don't want it. And I

狠狠地打一巴掌作为惩罚。 “不，不，彼得。”海蒂喊道。 “你不能打她。看她有多害怕！”“她需要它。”彼得咆哮着，又举起了手杖。 海蒂迅速挡在男孩和山羊之间。 “你没有权利碰她。 那会伤害她的。放开她！”彼得惊讶地看着那个小女孩。 他想着她是多么的善良。 海蒂今天把大部分午餐都给了他，只是因为她觉得他看起来很饿。 从来没有人为他做过这么好的事。 现在她想饶了这只淘气的动物。 彼得放下了棍子。“如果你明天再给我一些你的奶酪，我就放她走，”他说。 他仍然为那只山羊给他的惊吓而皱着眉头。 “你会得到所有的，明天和每一天。”海蒂回答。 “我不想要。和我

will give you bread, too—a large piece like you had today. But then you must promise never to hit Greenfinch or any of the other goats." "All right," said Peter. "It's a deal." And it seemed the boy really did mean to keep his word.

我也会给你面包——和你今天吃的一样大。 但你必须保证永远不打绿雀或其他山羊。” “好吧。”彼得说。“一言为定。” 看来这个男孩真的是想要信守诺言。
