3 Wow?

Chapter 3. Wow! Jack! cried Annie. The skinny dog barked and jumped around happily. Jack was hanging a few feet off the ground, with a rope around his ankle. His glasses and hat and bag had fallen to the ground. Jack felt the blood rushing to his head. I must have stepped into a hunting trap, he said in a strangled voice.

第三章 哇哦！ “杰克！”安妮喊道。 那只瘦瘦的小狗汪汪叫着，开心地蹦来蹦去。 杰克的脚踝缠着绳子，被吊在离地面几英尺高的地方。 他的眼镜、帽子还有背包都掉在了地上。 杰克感觉血都往脑袋上涌。 “我肯定是踩中捕猎陷阱了。”他憋得声音都变了。

I'll free you," Annie said. She tried to reach the rope, but it was too high. Jack heard voices over the wild barking of the dog. A blur of people gathered around him and Annie. Oh, mercy! a woman cried. We've caught a boy! a man said. The dog licked Jack's face. Help! said Jack. A burly man shooed the dog away, then grabbed Jack. Another cut the rope with a knife, then they gently lowered Jack to the ground. Jack sat in the leaves, feeling dizzy. He took the rope off his foot and rubbed his ankle. Here! said Annie, handing Jack his glasses, hat, and bag.

“我来救你下来！”安妮说。她伸手想去够绳子，可绳子太高了。这时杰克听到 小狗疯狂的吠叫声外传来了人声，一群人围到了他和安妮身边。 “天呐！”一个女人叫道。“我们抓到了一个小男孩！”一个男人说。小狗还在舔杰克的脸。 “救命啊！”杰克喊。一个壮硕的男人把小狗赶开，伸手扶住杰克，另一个人拿刀 割断了绳子，接着他们慢慢把杰克放到了地上。杰克坐在树叶堆里，觉得 头昏昏的。他把脚上的绳子解下来，揉了揉脚踝。“给你！”安妮说， 把他的眼镜、帽子和背包递了过来。

He put them all on and stood up. Now he could see. About forty or fifty pilgrims, men, women, and lots of children, stared at him and Annie. Some of the children were laughing. The girls were dressed just like the women, the boys were dressed just like the men. One person, though, looked different from everyone else in the crowd. His skin was brown, a deer skin hung over his shoulder.

他把东西都穿戴好站了起来，这下他能看清了。大概四五十个清教徒，有男有女还有好多小孩，都盯着他和安妮看，有些小孩还在笑。女孩穿得和成年女性一样，男孩穿得和成年男性一样。 不过人群里有一个人和其他人都不一样，他皮肤是棕褐色的，肩上搭着一块鹿皮。

His black hair was braided and had a feather in it. Is that Squanto? Jack wondered. The Wampanoag Indian who helped out the pilgrims? Two pilgrim men stepped forward. One had a smile on his face. The other was frowning. Good day, the friendly -looking man said. Who art thou? I'm Annie, said Annie. This is my brother Jack. We come in peace. Welcome to Plymouth Colony, said the man. I am Governor Bradford. This is Captain Standish. Captain Standish kept frowning. He carried a long gun over his shoulder. Oh, wow! said Annie. Wow! said Captain Standish.

他的黑头发编成了辫子，上面还插着一根羽毛。 那是斯匡托吗？杰克心里嘀咕，就是那个帮了清教徒的万帕诺亚格印第安人？ 两个清教徒男人走上前来，一个脸上带着笑，另一个皱着眉头。 “你们好呀。”看起来很友善的男人开口说，“你们是谁呀？” “我叫安妮，”安妮说，“这是我哥哥杰克，我们没有恶意的。” “欢迎来到普利茅斯殖民地，”男人说，“我是布拉德福德总督，这位是斯坦迪什上尉。” 斯坦迪什上尉一直皱着眉，肩膀上扛着一把长枪。 “哇哦！”安妮叫道。“哇哦？”斯坦迪什上尉跟着说。

Wow !" whispered others, as if they didn't understand. "'I've just heard a lot about you,' said Annie. She looked around. "'Is Priscilla here?' "'Shh!' whispered Jack. "'I am Priscilla,' said a young woman. She looked about seventeen or eighteen. Her face looked weary, and her eyes were sad. "'Hi,' said Annie shyly. "'I was you.' "'Annie?' warned Jack. "'Thou was me?' Priscilla asked. She sounded puzzled. "'Never mind my sister,' said Jack. She's nuts.' "'Nuts?' repeated Priscilla. "'Nuts?' whispered others. "'Oh, brother,' said Jack with a nervous laugh. "'Oh, brother?' repeated Priscilla.

“哇哦？”其他人也小声跟着说，好像听不懂这个词是什么意思。 “我之前听过好多关于你们的事呢！”安妮说，她四下张望了一下。 “普里西拉在这儿吗？” “嘘！”杰克小声制止她。 “我就是普里西拉。”一个年轻女人开口说，她看起来大概十七八 岁的样子，脸上满是疲惫，眼睛里也带着悲伤。 “你好呀。”安妮有点害羞地说。 “我之前扮演过你哦。” “安妮！”杰克提醒她别乱说话。 “你扮演过我？”普里西拉问，听起来非常困惑。 “别管我妹妹，”杰克说，“她脑子有点糊涂。” “糊涂？”普里西拉重复了一遍。 “糊涂？”其他人也小声跟着念叨。 “哎呀我的天。”杰克干笑了一声说。 “哎呀我的天？”普里西拉又跟着重复。
