And when the second eye was done I could see much better than before. 在第二只眼睛画成后，我就能看得更加清楚了。

Then he made my nose and my mouth. 他又画出我的鼻子和嘴巴。
But I did not speak, because at that time I didn't know what a mouth was for. 然而我没有说话，因为在那时候我还不知道嘴能说话。
I had the fun of watching them make my body and my arms and legs; 我好奇地看着他做我的身体，做我的手和脚；
and when they fastened on my head, at last, I felt very proud, for I thought I was just as good a man as anyone. 当他们最后装上我的头时，我感到很自豪，因为我想我简直就是一个人了。
"This fellow will scare 1 the crows fast enough." said the farmer. "He looks just like a man." ‘他肯定能够吓退乌鸦了，’农夫说，‘的确很像一个人。’
"Why he is a man." said the other, and I quite agreed with him. ‘他就是一个人’另一个农夫说，我非常赞同他。
The farmer carried me under his arm to the cornfield and set me up on a tall stick, where you found me. 农民把我提起来，走到稻田里，把我撑在一根竹竿上，就像你看到的那个样子。
He and his friend soon after walked away and left me alone. 后来，那两个芝奇金农夫就走掉了。把我单独留在那里。”
I did not like to be deserted 2 this way. So I tried to walk after them. “我不想就这样被遗弃；于是我想跟在他们后面走。
But my feet would not touch the ground, and I was forced to stay on that pole. 但是被强迫吊在竹竿上，我的脚不能着地。
It was a lonely life to lead, for I had nothing to think of, having been made such a little while before. 因为我还是在一刻钟之前做好的，没有什么事情可想，过着寂寞无聊的生活。
Many crows and other birds flew into the cornfield, but as soon as they saw me they flew away again, thinking I was a Munchkin; 许多乌鸦和别的鸟儿们飞到稻田里来，当它们看见我以后，以为我是一个芒奇金人，立刻飞走了。
and this pleased me and made me feel that I was quite an important person. 这倒使我高兴，我感到自己是一个重要的人物了。
By and by an old crow flew near me, and after looking at me carefully he perched upon my shoulder and said: 没过多久，一只老乌鸦飞近我，它在仔细地注视着我以后，站在我的肩头说道：
"I wonder if that farmer thought to fool me in this clumsy 3 manner. 真是好笑，那个农民还想用这个蠢笨的家伙来愚弄我。
Any crows of sense could see that you are only stuffed 4 with straw 5." 只要是有见识的乌鸦，都能够看出你不过是个塞满了稻草的稻草人罢了。’
Then he hopped 6 down at my feet and ate all the corn he wanted. 于是它飞到稻田里，吃着它所想吃的谷粒。
The other birds, seeing he was not harmed by me, came to ate the corn too, so in a short time there was a great flock 7 of them about me. 别的鸟儿们看见它并没有受到伤害，也飞下来啄包谷粒，所以没多久就有一大群乌鸦在我的周围。
