维多利亚大冒险
Biff and Chip had been to London with Gran. They had some pictures which they put into a scrapbook. They wanted to take the book to school.
比夫和奇普跟奶奶一起去了伦敦。 他们拍了好多照片,都贴在剪贴簿里啦。 他们想把这本剪贴簿带去学校。
Gran came into Biff's room to look at the children's scrapbook. We had a great time in London, said Biff. Thank you, Gran! Gran was pleased. Suddenly, the magic key glowed. It was time for an adventure. The magic took the children into the little house. But did it take Gran? The magic took the children into the little house.
奶奶走进比夫的房间,来看孩子们的剪贴簿。 比夫说:"我们在伦敦玩得超开心的!" 谢谢您,奶奶! 奶奶可高兴了。突然,魔法钥匙亮了起来。 又到冒险时间啦。 魔法把孩子们带进了小房子里。 可是它有没有带上奶奶呀? 魔法把孩子们带进了小房子里。
The magic took them back in time to a street on a foggy day. A boy was standing under a gas lamp. He looked at the children in surprise. Excuse me? said Biff. Do you know where we are? Don't you know? said the boy. This is London. He took his cap off. It wasn't a boy. It was a girl.
魔法带着他们穿越回了过去,来到了一个雾天的街道上。 一个男孩站在煤气灯下面, 惊讶地看着孩子们。 比夫说:"打扰一下?你知道我们现在在哪儿吗?" 男孩说:"你们不知道吗?这里是伦敦呀。" 他摘下帽子, 原来不是男孩,是个女孩哦。
I'm called Vicky said the girl. I'm called Vicky after the Queen What Queen asked Biff Queen Victoria said Vicky, don't you know anything? I'm hungry said Vicky, have you got any money No, sorry said the children come on then said Vicky. I know where we can get some follow me
女孩说:"我叫维姬, 是用女王的名字取的哦。" 比夫问:"什么女王呀?" 维姬说:"维多利亚女王呀,你怎么什么都不知道?" 维姬说:"我饿了,你们有钱吗?" 孩子们说:"没有哦,对不起。" 维姬说:"那跟我来吧, 我知道哪儿能弄到吃的,跟我走。"
They followed Vicky down winding streets. At last they came to a blacksmith's. The blacksmith was looking at a horse's hoof. The horse needed a new shoe. Got any jobs, mister? Asked Vicky. I'll give you a penny to pump the bellows. Said the blacksmith. The children pumped and pumped until the fire glowed hot. It was hard work.
他们跟着维姬走过弯弯曲曲的街道, 终于来到了一家铁匠铺。 铁匠正在查看一匹马的蹄子。 这匹马要钉新的马蹄铁啦。 "先生,有活给我们干吗?"维姬问。 铁匠说:"你们去拉风箱,我就给你们一便士。" 孩子们拉啊拉啊,直到火烧得旺旺的, 这活可累啦。
