荒野机器人 · 3 The Wild Robot Protects
CHAPTER 77 THE GRANDMOTHER Roz gazed upon her grandgoslings for the very first time. Her eyes glowed brightly. She sat on the rocks and said in a sweet voice, "Tell me, goslings, what are your names?" One by one, they answered. "Cloudfeather!" "Widestride!" "Quickwit!" "Moontail!" "Lighteyes!" "What splendid names you have!" said Roz. "It's okay if you mix us up," said Cloudfeather. "Yeah, everybody does it," said Widestride. "A nice thing about having a robotic grandmother," said Roz, "is that I will never ever mix you up." The goslings smiled. "I am very different from you," said Roz. "I hope you are not frightened by my appearance." "We're not frightened!" said Quickwit. "Our parents told us all about you," said Moontail.
七十七章罗兹祖母第一次凝视着她的小外孙。 她的眼睛闪闪发光。她坐在岩石上,用甜美的声音说:“告诉我,小鹅们,你们叫什么名字?”他们一个接一个地回答。 “Cloudfeather !”“Widestride !”“Quickwit !”“Moontail !”“Lighteyes !”“你们的名字多好听啊!” “你把我们弄混了也没关系。”云羽说。 “是的,每个人都这么做,”widstride说。 “有一个机器人奶奶的好处是,”罗兹说,“我永远不会把你搞混。” 小鹅们笑了。“我和你很不一样,”罗兹说。 “我希望你没有被我的样子吓着。” “我们不害怕!”奎克威特说。 “我们的父母把你的事都告诉我们了。”
"We knew you'd be funny-looking," said Lighteyes. The goslings giggled. The robot giggled too. Then the goslings waddled over and started inspecting their robotic grandmother. They checked out her big feet and her long legs and her rounded torso, and they pointed out each dent and scratch on her mechanical body. Quickwit flapped into the air to get a better view of Roz's face, and soon all the goslings were fluttering around her. When they settled, there were two goslings perched on each of the robot's shoulders, and one was perched right on top of her head. Reader, I don't believe any grandmother has ever been happier than our robot was in that moment.
“我们知道你的样子会很滑稽。” 小鹅们咯咯地笑。机器人也咯咯地笑。 然后小鹅们摇摇摆摆地走过来,开始检查他们的机器人奶奶。 他们检查了她的大脚、长腿和圆润的躯干,并指出了她机械身体上的每一个凹痕和划痕。 快威特飞到空中,以便更好地看到罗兹的脸,很快,所有的小鹅都在她周围扇动着翅膀。 当他们安顿下来时,机器人的肩膀上各有两只小鹅,其中一只就在她的头顶上。 读者们,我相信没有哪位祖母在那一刻比我们的机器人更快乐。
