木偶奇遇记 第11期:他开始又哭又叫
英语课
Certain that he was dreaming, he turned the egg over and over in his hands, fondled it, kissed it, and talked to it:
他简直像在做梦，一个劲儿把鸡蛋捧在手上，转过来转过去，又摸又吻，一面吻还一面说：
And now, how shall I cook you? Shall I make an omelet? No, it is better to fry you in a pan!
这会儿我该怎么吃这个蛋呢，炒着吃不好吗？…不，用煎锅煎最好！…
Or shall I drink you? No, the best way is to fry you in the pan. You will taste better.
噢，直接把喝下去？不，最好的方式是用煎锅煎了，这样你的味道会更好啦。
No sooner said than done. He placed a little pan over a foot warmer full of hot coals.
说完就干，他把一个小煎锅放在一个装满了烧炭的脚炉上。
In the pan, instead of oil or butter, he poured a little water.
在煎锅里他放的不是素油不是牛油，而是一点儿水。
As soon as the water started to boil--tac!--he broke the eggshell.
等到水一冒气，卡嗒！…他敲破鸡蛋壳。
But in place of the white and the yolk 1 of the egg, a little yellow Chick, fluffy 2 and gay and smiling, escaped from it.
可蛋壳里倒出来的不是蛋白和蛋黄，而是一只毛绒绒的，黄色的小鸡。小鸡又快活又有礼貌。
Bowing politely to Pinocchio, he said to him:
它对皮诺乔鞠个躬说：
Many, many thanks, indeed, Mr. Pinocchio, for having saved me the trouble of breaking my shell!
多谢您，皮诺乔先生，您让我省了力气，不用去弄破蛋壳啦！
Good-by and good luck to you and remember me to the family!
再见，祝您好，请代我问候您一家人！
With these words he spread out his wings and, darting 3 to the open window, he flew away into space till he was out of sight.
它说着展开翅膀，从打开的窗子冲出去，飞不见了。
The poor Marionette 4 stood as if turned to stone, with wide eyes, open mouth, and the empty halves of the egg-shell in his hands.
可怜的木偶站在那里发呆，眼睛瞪大，嘴巴张开，手里拿着两瓣空空的鸡蛋壳。
When he came to himself, he began to cry and shriek 5 at the top of his lungs, stamping his feet on the ground and wailing 6 all the while:
等到他最后清醒过来，他开始又哭又叫，绝望得跺脚，一面哭一面说：
The Talking Cricket was right!
还是会说话的蟋蟀说得对！
If I had not run away from home and if Father were here now, I should not be dying of hunger.
如果我不从家里进出去，如果我爸爸在这儿，这会儿我就不会饿得要命了！
Oh, how horrible it is to be hungry!
噢，肚子饿多难受啊！
And as his stomach kept grumbling 7 more than ever and he had nothing to quiet it with, he thought of going out for a walk to the near-by village, in the hope of finding some charitable person who might give him a bit of bread.
肚子继续咕噜咕噜响，越响越厉害，他又不知道该怎么办才叫它不响，他觉得还是离开屋子，到隔壁村子去看看，巴望能碰到个好心人，会施舍点面包给他吃吃。
