Chapter 10

By the time the parents arrived that evening the academy was looking perfect again. Star and Thyme had regrown the plants and trees, and also grown a path of pink flowers leading from the school to the lake. New decorations hung from the trees, and strands of fairy lights sparkled. Unicorns with food magic had conjured candy apples and lollipops and hung

那天晚上，当孩子的父母到达学校时，学校又恢复了原样。 星和百里香使植物和树木重新长了起来，还长出一条粉红色的花路，从学校一直延伸到湖边。 树上挂着新的装饰品，一串串的仙女灯闪闪发光。 有食物魔法的独角兽变出了苹果糖和棒棒糖，然后挂了起来

them from the branches of the trees, and Sherbet, Sam's unicorn, had conjured a fountain of raspberry lemonade that fizzed and popped as it shot into the air. Olivia and her friends groomed their unicorns until they shone, fed them sky berries and lake water to replenish their magic, and then went inside to change into their long

山姆的独角兽雪碧变出了一股覆盆子柠檬水的泉水，冲到空中时发出嘶嘶声。 奥利维亚和她的朋友们把他们的独角兽梳理得闪闪发光，喂它们天空浆果和湖水来补充它们的魔力，然后进去换上长衣服

sparkly-blue graduation gowns. Olivia felt a rush of happiness as she looked out of their dorm window. "Everywhere looks perfect!" "I can't believe we'll be leaving here tonight," said Layla, looking at the suitcases on their beds, packed and ready to go home with them. "I'm going to miss you all so much," said Olivia. She glanced round at her friends. "Are you really sure you don't hate me for keeping secrets?" "Of course we don't hate you!" everyone chorused. "No more secrets from now on though," said Sophia firmly. "We're a team and we're so much stronger when we work together." "We're going to be friends forever," declared Scarlett. "Friends who keep Unicorn Island safe!" agreed Isabel. "I know we live far away but we

亮蓝色的毕业礼服。 当奥利维亚向宿舍窗外望去时，她感到一阵幸福。 “到处看起来都很完美！”“我真不敢相信我们今晚就要离开这里了，”莱拉说，看着他们床上的行李箱，已经打包好了，准备和他们一起回家。 “我会非常想念你们的，”奥利维亚说。 她环视了一下她的朋友们。 “你真的不恨我保守秘密吗？”“我们当然不恨你！”大家异口同声地说。 “不过，从现在开始不要再保守秘密了。”索菲亚坚定地说。 “我们是一个团队，当我们一起工作时，我们会变得更加强大。” “我们要永远做朋友了，"思嘉说。 “保护独角兽岛安全的朋友们！”伊莎贝尔同意道。 “我知道我们住得很远，但是我们

will definitely find ways to meet up. For a start, I don't think we've seen the last of Ms Primrose." "If she tries to harm the lake again, we'll stop her!" said Sophia. "We'll never let her ruin Unicorn Island!" declared Layla. They all nodded firmly. "Ooh, look, there's Valentina," said Scarlett, pointing out of the window to where Valentina was standing with her parents. She wasn't wearing a graduation gown. "Doesn't she look sulky? It looks like Ms Nettles has stopped her from graduating." "Valentina needs to be nicer to Golden Briar before they'll ever bond," piped up Ava. "She never listens to anything Golden Briar has to say." "I'm very glad I finally listened to Snowflake," said Olivia with a smile.

一定会想办法见面的。 首先，我认为樱草花女士还没有离开我们。” 索菲亚说：“如果她再试图破坏湖泊，我们会阻止她的！” “我们绝不会让她毁了独角兽岛！”蕾拉宣布。 他们都坚定地点了点头。“哦，看，那是瓦伦蒂娜，"思嘉指着窗外瓦伦蒂娜和她父母站在一起的地方说。 她没有穿毕业礼服。 “她看上去不生气吗？”看来是奈特尔斯女士阻止她毕业了。” 艾娃说：“瓦伦蒂娜需要对金荆棘好一点，才能和她在一起。” “她从来不听金荆棘说的话。” “我很高兴我终于听了雪花的话，”奥利维亚笑着说。

The rest of the afternoon passed in a blur. Parents arrived, students were hugged and kissed, unicorns were patted and stroked. Everyone piled into the gardens and watched as the dorms did their displays. Sapphire dorm had made some last-minute changes to theirs and everyone gasped and cheered as Scarlett and Blaze made hoops of fire that Olivia and Snowflake froze as everyone jumped through them. Olivia caught sight of her little sister, Matilda, clapping wildly with her parents and felt her heart swell. Matilda was so lucky. After Christmas she would be starting at the academy, making her own friends and having her own adventures. She's going to have the best time ever, thought Olivia wistfully. Part of her felt sad that she wouldn't be at the academy with her little sister, but seeing Snowflake's parents whinnying proudly as they all bowed at the end of the routine, she knew she wouldn't change a

下午剩下的时间就模糊地过去了。 家长们来了，学生们被拥抱和亲吻，独角兽被拍和抚摸。 每个人都涌进花园，观看宿舍们的展示。 蓝宝石宿舍在最后一刻对他们的宿舍做了一些改变，当思嘉和火焰围成火圈时，每个人都倒吸一口凉气，欢呼起来，奥利维亚和雪花在大家跳过去的时候都僵住了。 奥利维亚看到她的小妹妹玛蒂尔达正和她的父母一起疯狂地鼓掌，她的心怦怦直跳。 玛蒂尔达太幸运了。圣诞节后，她将开始在学校学习，结交自己的朋友，有自己的冒险经历。 她将会度过最愉快的时光，奥利维亚若有所思地想。 她为不能和妹妹一起去学校而感到难过，但看到雪花的父母在节目结束时鞠躬，骄傲地呜咽着，她知道她不会改变

thing! After the demonstration, all the students who were graduating went into the ballroom. Lit by candles hanging in crystal chandeliers, the room sparkled prettily. Olivia gave Billy the thumbs- up as she admired the glittering paper swans, eagles and owls suspended around the room. The boys from Diamond dormitory had done a great job decorating it. On the stage, at the front, Ms Nettles gave a speech. Olivia listened carefully, bursting with pride.

的东西!表演结束后，所有即将毕业的学生都走进了舞厅。 在水晶吊灯上挂着的蜡烛的照亮下，房间里闪烁着美丽的光芒。 奥利维亚欣赏着房间里悬挂着的闪闪发光的纸天鹅、鹰和猫头鹰，对比利竖起了大拇指。 钻石宿舍的男生们装修得很漂亮。 在讲台的前面，奈特尔斯女士发表了演讲。 奥利维亚仔细地听着，充满了自豪。
