2-04 Mercy Watson Gose For A Ride

Chapter 4 Eugenia Lincoln and Baby Lincoln live next door to the Watsons. Every Saturday the Lincoln sisters watch Mercy and Mr. Watson back out of the driveway. Every Saturday Eugenia is displeased. Mr. Watson is a very bad driver, she says. He is a menace behind the wheel.

第四章 尤金妮亚·林肯和贝比·林肯住在沃森家隔壁。 每个周六，林肯姐妹俩都会看着默西和沃森先生倒车驶出车道。 每个周六尤金妮亚都很不高兴。 “沃森先生开车技术糟透了，”她说，“他握方向盘的时候就是个危险分子。”

Yes, sister, says Baby. Furthermore, says Eugenia, it is my firm opinion that pigs should not be taken for rides in automobiles, particularly that pig. That pig is a sly pig. I do not trust her. No, sister, says Baby. Baby looks down the road. The car has disappeared. Mr. Watson and Mercy are gone. Folly, says Eugenia Lincoln. She shakes her fist. It is folly, I say. Yes, sister, says Baby.

“没错，姐姐。”贝比说。 “还有，”尤金妮亚说，“我坚定地认为，猪绝对不该被带上汽车去兜风，” “尤其是那头猪。” 那头猪狡猾得很。 我信不过她。 “是呀，姐姐。”贝比说。 贝比望向路的尽头。 汽车已经不见了。 沃森先生和默西已经走了。 “荒唐。”尤金妮亚·林肯说。 她晃了晃拳头。 “要我说，这简直太荒唐了。” “没错，姐姐。”贝比说。

But secretly, Baby Lincoln thinks that a little folly wouldn't be a bad thing.

可私下里，贝比·林肯觉得，偶尔做点荒唐事也没什么不好呀。
