[04:34.63]because of a bizarre accident,like a bill of freedom for Butch.

[05:18.47]肖恩一边怒吼,一边把头很快移到货摊背后,

[05:21.25]in order to avoid another blunt object

[05:23.44]以便避开另外一个黑团一样的硬物

[05:25.62]that was flying across the room like a blur 19.

[05:27.69]从房间那边横飞过来的.

[05:29.77]"I don't care about your stupid plant and soil experiments Said Michelle."

[05:33.05]我才不管你那些愚蠢的植物和泥土实验呢!"米歇尔说,

[05:36.33]"There is no longer any bond between us."

[05:38.55]我俩之间不再有任何联系了!

[05:40.77]I am sick of all of your Boasting about boring

[05:43.25]你整天吹牛,我算是受够了

[05:45.73]into a mountain in Montana to find your bonanza 20!"

[05:48.26]说是要在蒙大拿的一座山上钻个洞寻找财源,我算是受够了。"

[05:50.80]"But it's really there!"

[05:52.42]可那儿确实有财源!

[05:54.04]And I can't cancel our flight booking anymore.We have to go!" Shawn yelled back.

[05:57.51]而且我们预定的航班也不能取消了,咱们必须去。"肖恩回敬道。

[06:00.99]Michelle's only response

[06:02.71]米歇尔的惟一反应

[06:04.43]was to bombard him even more with whatever item she could find.

[06:07.46]就是用手边能找到的东西更狠地攻击他。

[06:10.49]She had left the boundary of polite conversation hours ago

[06:13.28]几个小时前,她就已经离开札貌谈话的边界了,

[06:16.06]and was now bound to make Shawn

[06:18.10]现在她一定要肖恩

[06:20.13]pay for all of the hours of pointless Brainstorming sessions

[06:22.81]为几个小时的毫无意义的献策付出代价,

[06:25.49]he had forced her into for this stupid idea.

[06:27.81]为了这个愚蠢的想法,他硬逼着她想办法。

[06:30.14]"You can't boycott 21 your future, Michelle." Shawn boomed.

[06:33.16]"米歇尔,你不能抵制你的未来。"肖恩低声说,

[06:36.17]"There is endless Bounty 22 there for both of us."

[06:38.39]那儿会给我们俩无尽的礼物。

[06:40.61]I know it's a bold adventure,but if we succeed,

[06:43.13]我知道这是一次大胆的冒险,可一旦咱们成功,

[06:45.66]then you can buy all of the brand name clothing you want when we get hack 23!"

[06:48.74]回来时你就可以买所有你一直想买的名牌衣服了!"

[06:51.82]"I don't believe you!" Michelle yelled back.

[06:54.05]"我才不相信你呢!"米歇尔喊道。

[06:56.29]And then she stopped throwing things and started to cry.

[06:58.72]然后她就不再扔东西,而是哭了起来。

[07:01.15]Shawn crawled out across the border of his safe zone

[07:03.63]肖恩爬出来越过安全区域的边界,

[07:06.11]and Boosted himself up to look Michelle in the face.

[07:08.54]抬起头来正视米歇尔的脸。

[07:10.97]That was when a huge plate crashed on his head and knocked him out.

[07:13.70]就在这时,一个大盘子击中了他的脑袋,把他给砸昏了。

[07:16.43]"That was a bonus!" Said Michelle

[07:18.61]"这是给你的奖赏!"米歇尔说,

[07:20.79]as she looked at him on the ground and got up to leave.

[07:23.17]他看了看躺在地上的肖恩,然后起身离开了。

[07:25.54]breakthrough-bulky Even for a bee...

[07:30.08]即使是对一只蜜蜂……

[07:34.61]The brood of bees approached the new field of budding flowers with care.

[07:37.59]那窝蜜蜂小心翼翼地靠近一块从未去过的田野,那里长满了含苞待放的鲜花

[07:40.56]The breeze had changed and there was a strange smell in the air.

[07:43.05]微风已经变了,空气中散发着一种怪味

[07:45.53]Something bulky was also here.

[07:47.55]这里还有个庞然大物。

[07:49.58]Several bees quickly browsed 24 the area

[07:51.64]几只蜜蜂迅速吃掉了那里的花粉,

[07:53.70]and noted that the ground was bulging 25 in one portion of the field

[07:56.43]发现一块地方正在向外膨胀

[07:59.16]close to the brink 26 of a cliff.

[08:00.85]紧靠悬崖边缘.

[08:02.53]This was also the area with the largest amount of flowers,

[08:05.21]那块地上开的花儿也最多,

[08:07.89]so the queen bee let her workers make a breakthrough

[08:10.25]所以蜂后让工蜂来一次突破,

[08:12.62]to begin briskly gathering 27 nectar.

[08:14.64]开始很快采集花蜜。

[08:16.67]It was a brief hesitation 28,

[08:18.44]蜜蜂们只做了短暂的迟疑,

[08:20.22]but her breed of bees had always been very careful in choosing new lands.

[08:23.34]但是她的这个蜂种选择新地盘时一向很谨慎。

[08:26.46]Ever since her breach of her mother' s command

[08:28.59]自从蜂后违背母亲的命令,

[08:30.72]and the subsequent breakup of the bulk of their brood,

[08:33.10]随后大部分蜜蜂分裂以来,

[08:35.47]she was even more careful.

[08:37.39]她就更加小心了。

[08:39.31]Her authority in this new group was brittle 29 and,

[08:42.14]她在这个新群体中的权威岌岌可危,

[08:44.96]like the fear of a bugbear by all of the young bees,

[08:47.39]就像所有小蜜蜂都害怕妖怪一样,

[08:49.82]all of the worker bees were watching to see if she would lead well.

[08:52.55]所有工蜂都拭目以待,看她是不是能当好这个领导。

[08:55.28]She had to budget her commands and earn their respect.

[08:57.70]她必须合理安排、指挥得当才能赢得他们的尊重。

[09:00.13]This was not her day, however.

[09:01.91]不过,今天她不太走运。

[09:03.69]Suddenly a bee came back to report

[09:05.82]突然一只蜜蜂回来报告说,

[09:07.94]that the ground was bubbling near the bulging area.

[09:10.16]凸起的那块地周围正在冒泡,

[09:12.39]And then a buck 30 sprung out of the forest and ran across the field,

[09:15.32]接着一只雄鹿从森林里跳了出来,它跑过田野,

[09:18.26]killing several of her best workers in the process.

[09:20.74]在跑的过程中弄死了她手下几只最优秀的工蜂。

[09:23.23]As she flew over to the area with bubbles

[09:25.50]她飞过去察看那个冒泡地区,

[09:27.77]she passed over an old brochure for the brewery 31 that was buried beneath.

[09:30.66]没有注意到地下埋着一本古老的酿酒手册。

[09:33.54]She would bear the brunt of the blame

[09:35.37]她负主要责任

[09:37.20]for the deaths of the bees for not being aware of the buck,

[09:39.53]没有意识到有雄鹿从而导致工蜂丧命的事情

[09:41.85]but at least she could make sure

[09:43.43]至少她可以弄清楚

[09:45.01]no nectar was harvested from the dangerous bubbling area.

[09:47.69]不能从那个危险的冒泡地区采集花蜜。

[09:50.37]She quickly gathered her brood and moved on.

[09:52.50]她迅速集合队伍,继续前行。

[09:54.63]Leadership was not easy, even for a bee.

[09:57.05]当领导可真不容易,即使是对一只蜜蜂。

[09:59.48]bunch-can To Catherine!

[10:01.85]游泳去吧!

[10:04.21]The bungalow 32 at the edge of campus near the lake

[10:06.71]校园边湖附近那座小屋

[10:09.20]was not like the burrow 33 Mrs.Catherine had lived in previously 34.

[10:12.23]与凯瑟琳夫人以前的住处是不一样的。

[10:15.26]Sure the bureaucracy had taken long enough to finally allow her to in,

[10:18.64]当然,官僚们用了很久才终于允许她入住,

[10:22.03]and she had had to campaign quite hard.

[10:24.21]而且她得下足了功夫。

[10:26.39]It was a quiet location far from the highway bypass,

[10:28.91]这幢房子地处幽静之处,远离公路支路,

[10:31.43]close to the cafeteria

[10:33.26]离自助厅也不远,

[10:35.09]and of better caliber 35 than all of the other bungalows 36.

[10:37.52]而且质量比所有其他房子要好。

[10:39.95]She imagined that she could be happy here,

[10:42.38]她想自己会在这里住得很开心,

[10:44.81]at least for as long as she could avoid any calamity 37

[10:47.48]至少住到她能躲避丛林大火之类的灾难,

[10:50.16]like the hushfire that had chased her from her last home.

[10:52.84]上一回搬家就是因为一场丛林大火。

[10:55.52]She had never calculated that a move would be so exhausting

[10:58.49]她从未估计到搬家会这么累人,

[11:01.47]and she collapsed 38 in her bed.

[11:03.25]结果她给累趴下了。

[11:05.03]As she looked out of the window

[11:06.79]她朝窗外望去,

[11:08.55]she saw a buoy 39 in the water that she had never seen before.

[11:11.78]看到湖面上漂着一个以前从没见过的救生圈。

[11:15.00]Suddenly a bunch of young children burst past her window buzzing with excitement.

[11:18.88]突然,一群小孩冲过她的窗口,一边还兴奋地嘁嘁喳喳说着话。

[11:22.76]They stripped off their clothing

[11:24.54]他们脱下衣服

[11:26.32]and jumped in the water to swim around the buoy she had just noticed.

[11:29.10]跳进水中,围着她先前注意到的那个救生圈游起泳来。

[11:31.88]Soon her beautiful lawn resembled an abandoned campsite

[11:34.86]不一会儿,她那漂亮的草坪就像是一个

[11:37.84]with cans thrown everywhere.

[11:39.66]到处扔满饮料罐、被遗弃了的营地。

[11:41.49]She looked up at the calendar and moaned: it was Spring Break.

[11:44.42]她抬头一看日历,悲叹道:原来学生放春假了。

[11:47.34]As she looked at the buoyant children on the water,

[11:49.76]在她看着水上快乐的孩子们的时候,

[11:52.18]the crowd in her lawn burgeoned 40 into a regular party.

[11:54.84]她家草坪上的人群已经迅速发展成了一个标准聚会。

[11:57.51]She had never taken into her calculations that other people

[12:00.34]她可从来没估计到其他人

[12:03.17]might like the peacefulness of her new bungalow at all.

[12:06.05]也有可能喜欢她这所新居的宁静。

[12:08.92]But she decided 41 to play along,got her swimsuit on,

[12:11.65]但她还是决定和他们一起玩,她换上泳装,

[12:14.38]and went out and joined the party.

[12:16.21]走出家门,加入了聚会。

[12:18.04]Soon guests and new friends were going in and out of her home

[12:21.58]很快客人们和新朋友们就在她家进进出出了。

[12:25.12]and Mrs.Catherine was happier than ever.

[12:27.09]凯瑟琳太太还从来没有这样高兴过。

[12:29.06]A by-product 42 of her good sportsmanship and friendliness 43

[12:32.50]她具有良好的运动员素质,而且为人友善,这给她带来了一个意外的结果,

[12:35.93]was that her name became the buzzword for swimming at this location.

[12:38.80]那就是她的名字在那儿成了代替"游泳"的时髦词儿。

[12:41.68]cancel-catalogue A caption 44 to love

[12:44.50]给爱加个说明

[12:47.32]When the caravan 45 captain captured Lucy he had no idea

[12:50.80]车队队长俘虏露西的时候他可不知道这

[12:54.27]that she would soon become the top candidate to be his wife.

[12:56.75]位姑娘很快会成为队长妻子的最佳人选。

[12:59.23]She was the casualty of a small battle over cargo 46

[13:01.66]他为货物的事与别人发生了一场小小的冲突露西则是当时的受害者

[13:04.09]that he had had at the last town.

[13:06.22]在上一个城镇,

[13:08.35]He had killed those who had fought with him,

[13:10.48]他把反抗的人都杀了,

[13:12.61]carving them up into little pieces

[13:14.53]把他们切成小块,

[13:16.45]to be fed to the carnivores that always followed his train.

[13:19.23]喂了那些总是跟在他们火车后面的食肉动物。

[13:22.01]Casting his eyes to the horizon he had seen them coming already.

[13:25.24]放眼向地平线望去,他看到他们已经来了。

[13:28.46]When he looked back he noticed

[13:30.24]回头一看,他发现

[13:32.02]the former grocery store cashier hiding behind a pile of canes 47.

[13:35.26]杂货店原来那个收银员躲在一堆藤条后面。

[13:38.49]He pulled out his canteen to offer her water.

[13:40.87]拿出水壶给她水喝,

[13:43.25]when she came out to accept he grabbed her.

[13:45.38]她出来接水壶时却被他一把抓住。

[13:47.51]She had been his captive ever since.

[13:49.39]从那以后露西就成了他的俘虏。

[13:51.27]As they rode away he watched the animals eat the meat of the dead.

[13:54.00]骑马离开时,他看到食肉动物正在吃死者身上的肉。

[13:56.73]Some,in their hunger for meat,even cannibalized some of their own.

[13:59.81]由于太想吃肉了,有些动物甚至吃掉了一些自己的同类。

[14:02.89]They were capable of anything,the captain thought,just as I am.

[14:05.77]它们可真是无所不能,队长心想,就像我一样。

[14:08.64]He catalogued this thought in his head

[14:10.61]他把这个想法记在了脑子里,

[14:12.58]like an entry in a capsule to be viewed at another time.

[14:15.07]就像是一条以后再看的要点。

[14:17.55]The caption he placed in his head under this thought was,

[14:20.28]他在脑子里给这个想法写下的说明是:

[14:23.01]'animals with unlimited 48 capacity'.

[14:25.19]"能力无限的动物。"

[14:27.37]Then he looked at Lucy.

[14:28.95]然后他看了看露西。
