英语课
Chapter 17
第17章
As soon as the three doctors had left the room, the Fairy went to Pinocchio's bed and, touching 1 him on the forehead, noticed that he was burning with fever.
三位大夫一走出屋子,仙女就到皮诺乔床边,摸摸他的脑门,发现他在发高烧。
She took a glass of water, put a white powder into it, and, handing it to the Marionette 2, said lovingly to him: "Drink this, and in a few days you'll be up and well."
于是她把一点白色粉末溶在一杯水里,拿来给木偶,温柔地对他说:“喝了它,过几天你就好了。”
Pinocchio looked at the glass, made a wry 3 face, and asked in a whining 4 voice: "Is it sweet or bitter?"
皮诺乔看着杯子,颦眉蹙额,哭也似地问道:“这是甜的还是苦的?”
"It is bitter, but it is good for you." -"If it is bitter, I don't want it."
“苦的,可它能医好你的病。” -“苦的我不喝。”
"Drink it!" -"I don't like anything bitter."
“喝了它!” -“我不喜欢苦的东西。”
"Drink it and I'll give you a lump of sugar to take the bitter taste from your mouth." -"Where's the sugar?"
“喝了它我就给你一块糖,去去苦味。” -“糖呢?”
"Here it is," said the Fairy, taking a lump from a golden sugar bowl.
“在这儿,”仙女说着,从放糖的金碗里拿出一块来。
"I want the sugar first, then I'll drink the bitter water." -"Do you promise?" -"Yes."
“我想先吃糖,再喝这种苦水。” -“你保证?” -“我保证。”
The Fairy gave him the sugar and Pinocchio, after chewing and swallowing it in a twinkling, said, smacking 5 his lips: "If only sugar were medicine! I should take it every day."
仙女给了他糖,皮诺乔一转眼就嚼碎吃掉了,舔着嘴唇说:“要是糖是药就好了!我就天天吃药。”
"Now keep your promise and drink these few drops of water. They'll be good for you."
“现在你该信守诺言,喝了这点水,它会医好你的病。”
Pinocchio took the glass in both hands and stuck his nose into it.
皮诺乔用双手接过杯子,把鼻子插了进去。
He lifted it to his mouth and once more stuck his nose into it.
然后他把它凑到嘴边,又把鼻子插进去。
