The Wizard of Oz
《绿野仙踪》
Chapter 1, The Cyclone. Dorothy lived on a lonely farm in Kansas, with only her uncle Henry, her aunt Em, and her little dog Toto for company. One day, as they played outside, the sky grew dark.
第一章 龙卷风 多萝西住在堪萨斯州一座偏僻的农场里, 身边只有亨利叔叔、埃姆婶婶, 还有她的小狗托托陪着她。 有一天,他们正在外面玩耍的时候, 天慢慢暗了下来。
Then the wind whipped up with a chilling moan. There's a cyclone coming! Called her Uncle Henry. Quick! Into the cellar! In a panic, Toto ran to hide under her bed. Dorothy dashed after him as the wind shrieked and the whole house shook.
紧接着狂风呼啸,发出阵阵刺骨的呜咽声。 “龙卷风要来了!” 她的亨利叔叔大喊道。 “快!” “躲到地窖里去!” 托托慌慌张张地跑到床底下躲了起来。 多萝西连忙追过去,这时狂风尖啸,整座房子都在摇晃。
With a mighty wrench, the cyclone whirls the house into the sky. Dorothy shivered with terror. What will happen to us, Toto? She whispered.
龙卷风猛地一扯,把房子卷到了天上,多萝西吓得浑身发抖。 “我们会怎么样呀,托托?”她小声说道。
The house sailed through the sky for hours. Suddenly, with a sickening jolt, they landed. Welcome to Oz! cried a man in a pointed hat. And thank you! You've just killed the wicked witch of the East and set us free! Who? What? asked Dorothy, horrified. I haven't killed anyone. Well, your house did! a woman told her. Look! Two scrawny legs stuck out from under a wall.
房子在天上飘了好几个小时。 突然,一阵让人发晕的剧烈震动后,他们落地了。 “欢迎来到奥兹国!”一个戴着尖帽子的男人大喊道。 “还要谢谢你!你刚才杀死了东方恶女巫,把我们都解放啦!” “谁?什么?”多萝西吓了一跳,开口问道。 我没有杀过人呀。 “哎呀,是你的房子杀的呀!”一个女人对她说。 “你看!墙底下露着两条瘦巴巴的腿呢。”
As Dorothy looked, the legs vanished, leaving only a pair of silvery shoes behind. The woman handed them to Dorothy. These are yours now, she said.
多萝西看过去的时候,那两条腿消失了,只留下一双银鞋子。 女人把鞋子递给了多萝西。 “现在这双鞋是你的啦。”她说道。
