And Lurvy dragged Wilbur's trough across the yard and kicked some dirt into the rat's nest,
勒维把威尔伯的食槽拖过猪栏,踢了点土到老鼠洞里,
burying the broken egg and all Templeton's other possessions. Then he picked up the pail.
把破蛋连同坦普尔顿其他所有财产全部埋了。然后他捡起桶子。
Wilbur stood in the trough, drooling with hunger. Lurvy poured. The slops ran creamily down around the pig's eyes and ears.
威尔伯站在食槽里,饿得流口水。勒维把饲料倒进去。泔脚黏糊糊地泼在小猪的眼里甚至耳朵上。
Wilbur grunted 1. He gulped 2 and sucked, and sucked and gulped, making swishing and swooshing noises, anxious to get everything at once.
威尔伯呕呕地叫。它大口大口地吃,大口大口地喝,大口大口地吃,大口大口地喝,发出稀哩哗啦、呼噜哗啦的声音,急着要一口气吃个精光。
It was a delicious meal - skim milk, wheat middlings, leftover 3 pancakes, half a doughnut,

a strip of paper from the lining 4 of the garbage pail, and a spoonful of raspberry jello 5. Wilbur ate heartily 6.
垃圾桶的一张衬纸、一勺子悬钩子果冻。威尔伯闷头大吃。
