10 Who Are You, Really?

Chapter 10. Who Are You Really? Jack opened his eyes. Late afternoon sunlight shined into the treehouse. Our third gift, said Annie. She put the lotus blossom beside the pocket watch from the Titanic and the eagle's feather from the Lakota Indians. One more gift, she said to Teddy, and you'll be free from your spell. The little dog licked her hand.

第十章 你到底是谁?杰克睁开了眼睛。午后的阳光 照进了树屋。“这是我们的第三件礼物。”安妮说。她把莲花 放在泰坦尼克号的怀表,还有拉科塔印第安人的鹰羽旁边 。“还差一件礼物,”她对泰迪说,“你的咒语就能解除啦。”这只 小狗狗舔了舔她的手。

Hey, tell me this," said Jack. How did you know Teddy wanted us to hide behind that rock? Annie shrugged. I just knew, she said. I think I saw it in his eyes. You did? Jack looked into Teddy's eyes. The little dog tilted his head and stared back at Jack. Teddy's eyes twinkled as if they held many secrets. Who are you, really? whispered Jack. Teddy just smiled a doggy smile and wagged his tail. Come for us again soon, Annie said. Okay? Teddy sneezed as if to say, of course. Jack grabbed his pack and he had.

“喂,快告诉我,”杰克说。 你怎么知道泰迪想让我们躲在那块石头后面的? 安妮耸了耸肩。 “我就是知道呀。”她说。 我好像从他的眼睛里看出来的。 真的吗? 杰克盯着泰迪的眼睛看。 小狗狗歪着脑袋,也回望着杰克。 泰迪的眼睛亮晶晶的,好像藏着好多好多秘密。 你到底是谁呀? 杰克小声问道。 泰迪只是露出一个狗狗专属的笑容,晃了晃尾巴。 “要早点再来找我们玩哦。”安妮说。 好不好? 泰迪打了个喷嚏,好像在说:那当然啦。 杰克抓起自己的背包。

Annie climbed down the rope ladder. When they stood on the ground they looked up. A little black nose was poking out the treehouse window. Bye, they called. Arf, arf. Jack and Annie took off between the trees. Birds sang in the twilight, squirrels scampered playfully through the leaves. The Frog Creek woods were very tame after the forest in India. Soon they came to their street. As they walked to their house, the last bit of daylight was slipping away. Before they went inside Jack and Annie sat on their steps. I have two questions, said Jack. If the hermit couldn't see, how did he know about

安妮顺着绳梯爬了下去。他们站到地面上后,抬头往上看。 一只黑乎乎的小鼻子正从树屋的窗户探出来。 “再见啦!”他们喊道。“汪!汪!”杰克和安妮钻进树林里往前跑。暮色里鸟儿唱着歌, 松鼠在树叶间闹着跑过。经历过印度的森林之后,青蛙溪的树林实在太温和安全了。 没过多久他们就走到了家所在的街道。他们往家走的时候,最后一缕 日光渐渐消失了。进屋前,杰克和安妮坐在家门口的台阶上。 “我有两个问题,”杰克说,“那个隐士看不见东西,他怎么知道”

to Treehouse. And how did he know that we had traveled all night with the elephants? Easy, said Annie. The one great voice of the forest told him. Hmm, said Jack. He closed his eyes for a moment and listened. He heard a car going down the street. He heard a woodpecker pecking. He heard crickets chirping. He heard a screen door opening. He heard a mom saying, Time for dinner, kids. All the sounds were like one great voice. The one great voice of home.

树屋的事?还有他怎么知道我们和大象一起赶了一整夜的路? “这还不简单,”安妮说,“森林的宏大之声告诉他的呀。” “嗯。”杰克应了一声。他闭上眼睛听了一会儿。他听见一辆汽车沿着街道 驶过。他听见啄木鸟笃笃啄树的声音。他听见蟋蟀唧唧叫。他听见纱门 被推开的声音。他听见一位妈妈喊道:“该吃晚饭啦,孩子们。”所有的声音合在一起,就像 一个宏大的声音。那是家的宏大之声。
