神奇树屋 · 02 The Knight at Dawn

03 Across the Bridge

Chapter 3. Across the Bridge. Annie was under the tree, looking across the foggy ground. A knight riding toward that bridge, I think, said Annie. The bridge goes to the castle. Wait, I'll look it up, said Jack. Give me the flashlight. He took the flashlight from her and pulled the castle book out of his pack. He opened it to the page with a leather bookmark.

第三章 过桥 安妮站在树下,望着雾气蒙蒙的地面对面。 “有个骑士正骑着马往那座桥去呢,我没看错吧。”安妮说。 那座桥是通往城堡的。 “等一下,我查查看。”杰克说。 把手电筒给我。 他从她手里接过手电筒,又从背包里掏出那本讲城堡的书。 他翻到夹着皮质书签的那一页。

He read the words under the picture of the knight. This is a knight arriving for a castle feast. Knights wore armor when they traveled long and dangerous distances. The armor was very heavy. A helmet alone could weigh up to 40 pounds. Wow, Jack had weighed 40 pounds when he was five years old. So it'd be like riding a horse with a five -year -old on your head. Jack pulled out his notebook. He wanted to take notes as he'd done on their dinosaur trip. He wrote, Heavy Head. What else? He turned the pages of the castle book.

他读了骑士图片下方的文字。 这是一位前来参加城堡盛宴的骑士。 骑士们长途跋涉走危险路段的时候都会穿盔甲。 盔甲特别沉。 光一个头盔就能有40磅重哦。 哇,杰克五岁的时候体重刚好就是40磅呢。 那这不就像头顶着个五岁小孩骑马嘛。 杰克掏出了他的笔记本。 他想像之前的恐龙旅行一样做点笔记。 他写道: 脑袋沉得要命。 还有啥要记的呀? 他继续翻着这本讲城堡的书。

He found a picture that showed the whole castle and the buildings around it. The knight's crossing the bridge, said Annie. He's going through the gate. He's gone. Jack studied the bridge in the picture. He read, A drawbridge crossed the moat. The moat was filled with water to help protect the castle from enemies. Some people believe crocodiles were kept in the moat. Jack wrote in his notebook, Crocodiles in moat? Look, said Annie, peering through the mist. A windmill right over there.

他找到一张图,上面画了整座城堡还有周边的所有建筑。 “骑士过桥啦!”安妮喊道。 他进城门啦。 他消失不见了。 杰克仔细研究起图里的那座桥。 他读道: 一座吊桥横跨在护城河上。 护城河里装满了水,用来帮助城堡抵御敌人。 有些人觉得护城河里还养着鳄鱼哦。 杰克在笔记本上写: 护城河里有鳄鱼? “你看呀。”安妮一边透过雾气张望一边说。 那边有个风车呢。

Yeah, there's a windmill in here too, said Jack, pointing at the picture. Look at the real one, Jack, said Annie, not the one in the book. A piercing shriek split the air. Yikes, said Annie, it sounded like it came from that little house over there. She pointed through the fog. There's a little house here, said Jack, studying the picture. He turned the page and read, The hawk house was in the inner ward of the castle. Hawks were trained to hunt other birds and small animals. Jack wrote in his notebook, hawks in hawk house.

“对呀,这本书里也画了个风车呢。”杰克指着图片说道。 “杰克你看真实的那个呀,别看书里的啦。”安妮说。 一阵刺耳的尖叫声划破了天空。 “妈呀,”安妮说,“听起来好像是从那边的小房子传过来的。” 她指向雾气的另一边。 “哦,图里这里也有个小房子。”杰克研究着图片说道。 他翻了一页读道: 驯鹰房坐落在城堡的内庭里。 人们会训练鹰去捕猎其他鸟类和小动物。 杰克在笔记本上写:驯鹰房里有鹰。

We must be in the inner ward," said Jack. Listen," whispered Annie, you hear that? Drums, horns, they're coming from the castle. Let's go see. Wait," said Jack. He turned more pages of the book. I want to see what's really going on, Jack, not what's in the book, said Annie. But look at this," said Jack. He pointed to a picture of a big party. Men were standing by the door, playing drums and horns. He read, fanfares were played to announce different dishes in a feast. Feasts were held in the great hall. You can look at the book. I'm going to the real feast," said Annie.

“我们现在肯定是在内庭里。”杰克说。 “你听,”安妮小声说,“你听到那个声音没?” 鼓声,号角声,都是从城堡那边传过来的。 我们去看看吧。 “等一下。”杰克说。 他又多翻了几页书。 “杰克我想知道现在真实发生了啥,不想看书里写的啦。”安妮说。 “可是你看这个呀。”杰克说。 他指着一张画着盛大派对的图片。 人们站在门边,敲着鼓吹着号角。 他读道:盛宴上每上一道不同的菜,都会奏响号角欢迎。 盛宴都是在大厅里举办的。 你慢慢看书吧。 “我要去看真实的盛宴啦。”安妮说。
