第八章 拯救安妮 守卫们想把安妮从战车比赛现场拉走 安妮先是一愣，随即满脸怒气 放开我！她大喊道 杰克冲下观景台的台阶 守卫们拽着安妮挤过人群，费了好大的劲 别碰她！杰克大吼

His voice was lost in the noise of the race. He pushed his way through the crowd. Leave her alone! He kept shouting. Leave her alone! Finally Jack reached Annie and the guards. He tried to grab her, but a guard blocked his way. Let her go! yelled Jack. I promise I'll take her home. More guards arrived. The crowd began to shout. Arrest her! Arrest her! The guards kept pulling Annie away. Jack! The story! cried Annie. Of course, thought Jack. The poet's story. This is definitely our darkest hour. He reached into his bag and pulled out the poet's scroll. He held the story up to the sky.

他的声音被比赛的喧闹声淹没了，他奋力在人群中往前挤 别碰她！他不停地喊，别碰她！ 杰克终于挤到了安妮和守卫身边，他想去拉安妮，却被一个守卫挡住了去路 放开她！杰克大喊，我保证会带她回家的 更多守卫赶来了，人群开始叫嚷：抓她！抓她！ 守卫们继续拽着安妮往前走 杰克！那个故事！安妮大喊 对呀，杰克心想，诗人的故事，现在绝对是我们最危急的时刻 他把手伸进包里，掏出诗人的卷轴，把卷轴高高举过头顶

Save Annie! he shouted. But Jack's voice was again lost in the roar of the race as the four horse chariots barreled through the dust. Jack looked around wildly for someone or something to help them. Then suddenly the crowd fell silent. All heads turned to watch as a huge white horse galloped out of the dust. The crowd murmured with excitement and wonder. The white horse was the most beautiful animal Jack had ever seen. He was pulling an empty chariot and he was galloping straight toward Jack.

救救安妮！他大喊道 可四匹马拉的战车正从尘土中疾驰而过，杰克的声音再次被比赛的轰鸣声吞没了 杰克焦急地四处张望，想找能帮他们的人或东西，突然间人群安静了下来 大家都转过头，看着一匹高大的白马从尘土中飞奔而来 人群又惊又喜，纷纷低声议论起来 这匹白马是杰克见过的最漂亮的动物 它拉着一架空战车，径直朝杰克飞奔过来
