88 THE FINAL FAREWELL

CHAPTER 88 THE FINAL FAREWELL "Everyone, I would like you to meet the woman who designed me." Roz walked over to the strange creature standing by the ship's doorway. For most of the island animals, this was their first time seeing a human. They squinted and sniffed and whispered to each other, trying to understand how such a frail old woman could create such a big, strong robot. Dr. Molovo started speaking softly to Roz, and then Roz started speaking loudly to the crowd of animals. "My Designer has asked me to translate her words for you," said the robot. "The following words are not mine, they are hers." The crowd settled down and listened. "Thank you, island animals, for saving Roz! Without your help she would have died here long ago. But you were not only her rescuers, you were also her teachers. You taught her to be wild, and she needed all of her wildness to survive, both in your

第八十八章最后的告别“各位，我想让你们认识一下设计我的女人。” 罗兹走向站在船门口的那个奇怪的生物。 对于大多数岛上的动物来说，这是它们第一次见到人类。 他们眯着眼睛，嗅着鼻子，互相耳语，试图理解这样一个虚弱的老妇人是如何创造出这样一个又大又强壮的机器人的。 莫罗沃医生开始轻声地对罗兹说话，然后罗兹开始大声地对着一群动物说话。 “我的设计师让我帮你翻译她的话，”机器人说。 “下面的话不是我说的，是她说的。” 人群坐下来倾听。 “谢谢你们，岛上的动物们，你们救了罗兹！”没有你的帮助，她早就死在这里了。 但你们不仅是她的救星，还是她的老师。 你教她狂野，而她需要所有的狂野才能生存，在你的

world and in mine. "As I look around at this wild paradise, I finally understand why Roz tried so hard to get back here. She does not belong with robots and humans. She belongs here, on this island, with all of you. "We cannot risk others learning about this place. That is why I will soon leave and never return. But I promise to keep your island a secret so that all of you can live in peace. And I will spend the rest of my days filled with wonder at the miracle that is our wild robot." The meadow fell silent. A flurry of wingbeats, and Brightbill landed in the grass near Dr. Molovo. He gazed up at the woman, deep into her eyes, and then he bowed his head. Then the other geese in his flock bowed their heads. Crownpoint the buck bowed his head. Pinktail the opossum bowed. Mr. and Mrs. Beaver bowed. The lizards bowed, followed by the turtles and the frogs. Like a wave rolling through the crowd, more animals bowed until every head was lowered. They were showing respect for the woman who had created their dear friend Roz, and who had brought her back to them.

世界和我。“当我环顾这个野生天堂时，我终于明白了为什么罗兹如此努力地回到这里。 她不属于机器人和人类。 她属于这里，属于这个岛，属于你们所有人。 “我们不能冒险让别人知道这个地方。 这就是为什么我很快就要离开，再也不回来了。 但我保证为你们的岛保密这样你们就能和平共处了。 我将用我余下的日子对我们的野生机器人的奇迹充满惊奇。” 草地上一片寂静。一阵拍打着翅膀的声音，Brightbill降落在Dr。 Molovo。他抬头凝视着那个女人，深深凝视着她的眼睛，然后低下了头。 其他的鹅都低下了头。 雄鹿低下了头。 负鼠粉红尾巴鞠了一躬。 比弗先生和太太鞠了一躬。 蜥蜴鞠了一躬，接着是乌龟和青蛙。 像波浪一样在人群中翻滚，更多的动物鞠躬，直到每个人都低下了头。 他们是在向创造了他们亲爱的朋友罗兹并把她带回到他们身边的女人表示敬意。

Dr. Molovo turned to Roz. "Do you understand why I can't return?" she said, her eyes glistening. "It's for your own good." "I understand," said the robot. "I only wish we had gotten to know each other a little better." Dr. Molovo smiled and pulled Roz into a hug. She didn't mind the robot's coat of mud and grass. Wrapped in each other's arms, they both felt something like love. "You're the wild robot," said the woman. "Go be wild."

莫罗沃医生转向罗兹。“你明白我为什么回不去了吗？”她说，眼里闪着光。 “这是为你好。”“我明白了，”机器人说。 “我只希望我们能更好地了解彼此。” 莫罗沃医生微笑着把罗兹拉进怀中。 她不介意机器人的泥巴和草的外套。 他们紧紧地抱在一起，感觉到了一种爱的感觉。 “你是狂野的机器人，”女人说。 “去狂野吧。”
