英语课
"Give us two good rooms, one for Mr. Pinocchio and the other for me and my friend.
“给我们开两间上房,一间给皮诺乔先生,一间给我和我的朋友。
Before starting out, we'll take a little nap.
在出发之前,我们需要打个盹。
Remember to call us at midnight sharp, for we must continue on our journey."记得午夜时分叫醒我们,我们必须要继续赶路。”
"Yes, sir," answered the Innkeeper, winking 1 in a knowing way at the Fox and the Cat, as if to say, "I understand."“好的,先生们,”旅店老板回答着,对狐狸和猫眨眨眼,像是在说:“我懂的。”
As soon as Pinocchio was in bed, he fell fast asleep and began to dream.
皮诺乔一沾床就睡着了,然后开始做梦。
He dreamed he was in the middle of a field. The field was full of vines heavy with grapes.
他梦见自己站在一片田野里。田野里到处是挂满了葡萄的葡萄藤。
木偶奇遇记
The grapes were no other than gold coins which tinkled 2 merrily as they swayed in the wind.
那些葡萄就是金币,在微风吹拂下愉悦的轻摇着。
They seemed to say, "Let him who wants us take us!"他们看起来像是在说:“想要我们就把我们带走吧!”
Just as Pinocchio stretched out his hand to take a handful of them, he was awakened 3 by three loud knocks at the door.
正当皮诺乔伸手要去采一把金币时,却被房门上很响的三下敲门声惊醒了。
It was the Innkeeper who had come to tell him that midnight had struck.
原来是旅馆老板来告诉他已经午夜十二点了。
"Are my friends ready?" the Marionette 4 asked him.
“我的朋友们准备好了吗?”木偶问他。
"Indeed, yes! They went two hours ago."
“当然啦!他们两个钟头以前就走啦。”
"Why in such a hurry?"
“为什么这么急?”
"Unfortunately the Cat received a telegram which said that his first-born was suffering from chilblains and was on the point of death.
“因为猫收到电报说它的大孩子生了冻疮,有生命危险。
He could not even wait to say good-by to you."他甚至来不及和你道别。”
