07 Ready,Set,Go!

Chapter 7. Ready, set, go. Run, Annie, run, cried Jack, to the tree house. They dashed down the hill together, through the tall grass, through the ferns, past the pteranodon and right to the rope ladder. They scrambled up. Seconds later they tumbled into the tree house. Annie leaped to the window. He's going away, she said panting. Jack pushed his glasses into place. He looked through the window with her.

第七章 预备，就位，出发。 快跑，安妮，快跑，杰克喊道，往树屋跑。 他们一起冲下山，穿过高高的草丛，穿过蕨类植物，经过 无齿翼龙，径直跑到绳梯跟前。 他们往上爬。 几秒后他们跌跌撞撞进了树屋。 安妮蹦到窗边。 他要走啦，她喘着气说。 杰克把眼镜推回原位。 他和她一起往窗外看。

Tyrannosaurus was wandering off. But then the monsters stopped and turned around. Duck! said Jack. The two of them hunched down. After a long moment, they raised their heads. They peeked out again. Coast clear, said Jack. Yay! whispered Annie. We have to get out of here, said Jack. You made a wish before, said Annie. I wish we could go back to Frog Creek, said Jack. Nothing happened. I wish... Wait! You were looking at a picture in the dinosaur book. Remember? The dinosaur book. Jack groaned. Oh no! I left the book and...

霸王龙正慢悠悠走开。可这只怪兽突然停住脚步，转过身来。 低头！杰克说。他俩连忙蹲下身。过了好半天，才抬起头。 他们又往外偷看。安全了，杰克说。耶！安妮小声欢呼。 我们得离开这儿，杰克说。你之前许过愿的呀，安妮说。 我希望我们能回到青蛙溪，杰克说。 什么都没发生。我希望……等等！你刚才是看着恐龙书里的图片许愿的。 记得吗？那本恐龙书。杰克哀嚎了一声。哦不！我把书还有……落在那儿了。

My pack on the hill. I have to go back. Oh, forget it," said Annie. I can't," said Jack. The book doesn't belong to us. Plus my notebook's in my pack with all my notes. Hurry," said Annie. Jack hurried down the rope ladder. He leaped to the ground. He raced past the Pteranodon, through the ferns, through the tall grass, and up the hill. He looked down. There was his pack lying on the ground. On top of it was the dinosaur book. But now the valley below was filled with Anatosaurus's, all standing guard around the nests. Where had they been? Did fear the Pteranosaurus send them home? Jack took a deep breath.

我的背包还在山上。 我得回去拿。 哎呀，别管它了，安妮说。 不行啊，杰克说。 那本书不是我们的。 而且我的笔记本还有所有笔记都在背包里呢。 快点，安妮说。 杰克急忙爬下绳梯。 他跳到地面上。 他跑过无齿翼龙身边，穿过蕨丛， 穿过高高的草丛，往山上跑。 他往下看。 他的背包就在地上躺着呢。 恐龙书就放在背包上面。 可现在下面的山谷里全是大鸭龙， 它们都守在窝的周围。 它们之前去哪儿了？ 是害怕无齿翼龙才把它们赶回窝的吗？ 杰克深吸了一口气。

Ready, set, go! He charged down the hill. He leaped to his backpack. He scooped it up. He grabbed the dinosaur book. A terrible tuba sound. Another, another. All the Anatosaurus' were bellowing at him. Jack took off. He raced up to the hilltop. He started down the hill. He stopped. The Tyrannosaurus Rex was back. And he was standing between Jack and the tree house.

预备，就位，冲！ 他冲下山去。 他跳到背包跟前。 他一把抄起背包。 抓起那本恐龙书。 忽然传来一阵像大号吹错的可怕声响。 一声接一声，响个不停。 所有大鸭龙都在对着他吼叫。 杰克拔腿就跑。 他飞快地跑回山顶。 他正要往山下跑。 他停住了脚。 霸王龙回来了。 它就挡在杰克和树屋中间。
