Part 4

Rabbit looked. And looked. And the fear shrank and shrank, until eventually... Rabbit yawned! "How do you feel?" asked Wolf. "OK," squeaked Rabbit. "I think." "Good. Now, take a step... towards it." Rabbit gulped, and took a step towards the icebear, holding his bendy stick like a magic sword. And his fear shrank even more. "See?" said Wolf. "First defeat your fear. Then defeat your enemy."

兔子看起来。而且看。 恐惧越来越小，直到最后…… 兔子打了个哈欠!“你感觉怎么样？”狼问。 “好的，”兔子尖声说。“我认为”。 “很好。现在，迈出一步…… 朝它。”兔子喘了口气，向冰熊走去，手里拿着他那根弯曲的棍子，就像拿着一把神奇的剑。 他的恐惧更少了。 “看到了吗？”狼说。“首先战胜你的恐惧。 然后打败你的敌人。”

Rabbit swung his magic bendy stick sword with a swish. "Hey!" said Rabbit. "I do feel braver!... Just a little bit," he added hastily. "But..." Rabbit had an idea. "If I'm King of Myself, I order myself... to be INFINITELY brave!" He looked inside himself for infinite bravery. Oh no! There was some new bravery; but there were also lots of little quivers of fear and shivers of worry, like always. "BAD RABBIT!!! YOU—" "No!" Wolf raised a paw. "Rule yourself WISELY! You can't just order yourself to do impossible things." "You are right, Wolf," said Rabbit. And he spoke more kindly to himself. "Do your best, Rabbit," he murmured. "Try to be

兔子挥舞着他那把神奇的弯曲木棍剑。 “嘿！”兔子说。“我确实觉得更勇敢了！” 只知道一点点。”他急忙补充道。 “但是……”兔子有了一个主意。 “如果我是我自己的国王，我命令我自己……” 无限勇敢！”他向自己内心寻找无限的勇气。 噢,不!有一种新的勇气；但也有许多小小的恐惧和担忧的颤抖，一如既往。 “坏兔子! !你——”“不!”狼举起一只爪子。 “明智地治理自己！”你不能命令自己去做不可能的事。” “你说得对，狼。”兔子说。 他对自己说得更亲切了。 “尽力而为吧，兔子。”他喃喃地说。 “试着成为

brave. But I will understand if you are not." "Good," said Wolf. "That's better. Now that you're a wise, kind King of Yourself, a wolf will run at your side, and help you." "You, Wolf?" "No; your own special wolf." Rabbit sniffed the air, but he couldn't smell another wolf. "Where is he?" "He will appear, as soon as you leave the woods." Rabbit felt happier; but then he remembered how big and mean the Icebear was. "Yes, but we will need... one, two, three..." Rabbit counted until he ran out of numbers, "...a HUGE number of wolves to defeat him!" "You have a huge number of wolves," said Wolf. "But where are they?" cried Rabbit in despair. "Bring the other animals to the cliff at the edge of the woods," said Wolf.

勇敢。但如果你不喜欢，我也能理解。” “很好，”狼说。“这是更好的。 现在你是一个聪明善良的国王，一只狼会跑到你身边来帮助你的。” “你,狼?”“不;你自己特别的狼。” 兔子嗅了嗅空气，但他没有闻到另一只狼的味道。 “他在哪儿？”“你一离开树林，他就会出现的。” 兔子觉得更快乐了；但后来他想起了那只冰熊是多么的巨大和卑鄙。 “是的，但是我们需要……一、二、三……” 兔子一直数到数完了，“……一大群狼来打败他！”“你们有很多狼，”狼说。 “可是他们在哪儿呢？”兔子绝望地叫道。 “把其他动物带到森林边上的悬崖上，”狼说。

By the time Rabbit got back, it was almost dawn. He saw Bear in the distance, and ran to give her a Bear-sized hug. "Oooof," said Bear, hugging back. "I was missing you." "I missed you, too," said Rabbit. "There was a Bear- shaped hole where you are meant to be." "Rabbit! We thought the king had already EATEN you!" cried the animals. "Where did you go?" Rabbit pointed. "I'll show you. Come with me." "Come with you into the Dark Woods?" cried the animals. "Just the edge!" said Rabbit. "It is better than being eaten at dawn." The animals stared at the Dark Woods. Behind them, the rickety palace they had been trying to build collapsed for the fiftieth time. They looked at the sad pile of sticks and stones, and listened as the king's angry snores grew louder. They were tired and grumpy and desperate: and so they followed Rabbit to the Dark Woods.

兔子回来的时候，天已经快亮了。 他在远处看到了熊，跑过去给了她一个熊那么大的拥抱。 “呜，”熊说，也拥抱了他。 “我想你了。”“我也想你，”兔子说。 “你该去的地方有一个熊形的洞。” “兔子!我们还以为国王已经把你吃掉了呢！”动物们叫道。 “你去哪儿了？”兔子指出。 “我指给你看。跟我来。” “跟你一起到黑森林里去？”动物们叫道。 “就在边上！”兔子说。 “总比黎明被人吃掉要好。” 动物们盯着黑森林。 在他们身后，他们一直试图建造的摇摇欲坠的宫殿第五十次倒塌了。 他们看着那堆悲哀的棍棒和石头，听着国王愤怒的鼾声越来越响。 他们又累又气，又绝望，就跟着兔子来到了黑森林。

Wolf explained the plan. Vole gasped. "But we might be beaten!" She thought for a second. "And eaten!" She thought for another second. "And pooped!" Wolf shrugged. "Yes," he said, "you might." "Hey!" said Vole. "You are meant to say something to make me feel better!" "Better? OK," said Wolf. "If you don't try this plan... you will definitely be beaten, eaten, and pooped." "That didn't help," said Vole, in a small voice. Mole turned pale, which is a very difficult thing for a mole to do. "It's our only chance," he said. "We have to do it." The animals nodded a yes that was so gloomy, it felt like a no. Wolf gave each animal their own crown, and sword. And he taught them everything he had taught Rabbit. As he taught them, they stood taller; and as they stood taller, the sun came up.

沃尔夫解释了这个计划。田鼠气喘吁吁地说。 “但是我们可能会被打败！”她想了一会儿。 “吃!”她又想了一秒钟。 “和精疲力竭的!”狼耸了耸肩。 “是的，”他说，“你可以。” “嘿！”田鼠说。“你应该说些让我感觉好点的话！”“好点了吗? 好吧，”狼说。“如果你不尝试这个计划…… 你肯定会被打、被吃、被拉。” “那没有用，”田鼠低声说。 鼹鼠脸色苍白，这对鼹鼠来说是一件非常困难的事情。 “这是我们唯一的机会，”他说。 “我们必须这么做。”动物们点了点头，是那么阴郁，感觉就像在说“不”。 狼给了每个动物自己的王冠和剑。 他把教给兔子的一切都教给了他们。 他一教训他们，他们就站得更高了。他们越站越高，太阳就出来了。
