In Part 3 of The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, Dorothy rescues the Tin Woodman, who has no heart and is so rusted that he cannot move.
在"绿野仙踪"的"神奇巫师"第三部中,多萝西拯救了无心而生锈而不能移动的"天木人".
As they make their way through the forest, the group is confronted by the Cowardly Lion, who decides to join them to see if Oz can give him the courage he lacks.
当他们走过森林时,这个团体面对的是胆小鬼狮子,他们决定加入他们,看看奥兹能否给他所缺乏的勇气.
Dorothy built a splendid fire that warmed her and made her feel less lonely.
桃乐西制造出一股出人意料的火,使她暖和并让她觉得不那么孤独.
She and Toto ate the last of their bread, and now she did not know what they would do for breakfast.
她和多多吃了他们最后的面包 现在她不知道早餐会做什么
“If you wish,” said the Lion, “I will go into the forest and kill a deer for you.
“如果你愿意,”狮子说,“我将进入森林,为你杀死一头鹿。
You can roast it by the fire, since your tastes are so peculiar that you prefer cooked food, and then you will have a very good breakfast.”
你可以在火边烤, 因为你的口味很奇特, 你喜欢熟食, 然后你会有一个非常好的早餐。 “
“Don’t!
" 别!
Please don’t,” begged the Tin Woodman.
请不要,
“I should certainly weep if you killed a poor deer, and then my jaws would rust again.”
“如果你杀了一头可怜的鹿,我当然应该哭泣,然后我的下巴会再生锈。 “
But the Lion went away into the forest and found his own supper, and no one ever knew what it was, for he didn’t mention it.
但狮子走入了森林,找到了自己的晚餐,没有人知道是什么,因为他没有提及。
And the Scarecrow found a tree full of nuts and filled Dorothy’s basket with them, so that she would not be hungry for a long time.
稻草人发现一棵树上放满了坚果,并用它们填满了多萝西的篮子,这样她就不会长期挨饿.
She thought this was very kind and thoughtful of the Scarecrow, but she laughed heartily at the awkward way in which the poor creature picked up the nuts.
她觉得这对稻草人非常亲切和体贴,但她却对可怜的生物拿起坚果的尴尬方式心生取笑.
His padded hands were so clumsy and the nuts were so small that he dropped almost as many as he put in the basket.
他的花花公子手笨手笨脚,坚果又小到几乎倒入了篮子里.
But the Scarecrow did not mind how long it took him to fill the basket, for it enabled him to keep away from the fire, as he feared a spark might get into his straw and burn him up.
但是稻草人并不介意他用多久时间来填入篮子,因为它使他能远离起火,因为他担心有火花会钻入他的稻草并烧死他.
So he kept away from the flames, and only came near to cover Dorothy with dry leaves when she lay down to sleep.
于是他远离了火焰,只在多萝西躺下入睡时用干叶来掩护她.
These kept her very snug and warm, and she slept soundly until morning.
这些让她保持了很温柔和温暖, 她睡得一直到早上。
When it was daylight, the girl bathed her face in a little rippling brook, and soon after they all started toward the Emerald City.
当天亮时,女孩在小溪边洗了澡, 不久后,她们都开始走向翡翠城。
This was to be an eventful day for the travelers.
今天是旅行者的盛会
They had hardly been walking an hour when they saw before them a great ditch that crossed the road and divided the forest as far as they could see on either side.
他们几乎一个小时前就看到一条大沟,穿过了公路,将森林分割开来,在两边都能看到。
It was a very wide ditch, and when they crept up to the edge and looked into it they could see it was also very deep, and there were many big, jagged rocks at the bottom.
这是一个非常宽的沟道, 当他们爬到边缘, 并查看它时, 他们可以看到它也是非常深的, 并且有许多大, 夹克的岩石在底部。
The sides were so steep that none of them could climb down, and for a moment it seemed that their journey must end.
双方都非常陡峭,都无法下山,一度似乎他们的旅程必须结束.
“What shall we do?”
“我们该怎么办? “
asked Dorothy despairingly.
多萝西绝望地问道。
“I haven’t the faintest idea,” said the Tin Woodman, and the Lion shook his shaggy mane and looked thoughtful.
Tin Woodman说:「我还没有一个最昏暗的主意,
But the Scarecrow said, “We cannot fly, that is certain.
但稻草人说:“我们不能飞,这是肯定的。
Neither can we climb down into this great ditch.
我们也不能爬到这个大沟里去
Therefore, if we cannot jump over it, we must stop where we are.”
因此,如果我们不能跳过它,我们就必须停止现在的状况。 “
“I think I could jump over it,” said the Cowardly Lion, after measuring the distance carefully in his mind.
“我想我可以跳过它,” 胆小鬼狮子在仔细测量他脑中距离之后说。
“Then we are all right,” answered the Scarecrow, “for you can carry us all over on your back, one at a time.”
稻草人回答说,“那么我们就没事了,”“因为你可以背着我们,一个接一个。 “
“Well, I’ll try it,” said the Lion.
狮子说,
“Who will go first?”
“谁先走? “
“I will,” declared the Scarecrow, “for, if you found that you could not jump over the gulf, Dorothy would be killed, or the Tin Woodman badly dented on the rocks below.
“我会,”宣布稻草人,“因为如果你发现你无法跳过海湾,多萝西会被杀死,或者锡木人被严重地凹入下面的岩石上。
But if I am on your back it will not matter so much, for the fall would not hurt me at all.”
但如果我站在你背上 那不重要 因为摔倒不会伤害我 “
“I am terribly afraid of falling, myself,” said the Cowardly Lion, “but I suppose there is nothing to do but try it.
胆小的狮子说,“我本人非常害怕摔倒,”但我想除了尝试,别无他法。
So get on my back and we will make the attempt.”
所以,在我的背上 我们将尝试。 “
The Scarecrow sat upon the Lion’s back, and the big beast walked to the edge of the gulf and crouched down.
稻草人坐在狮子的背上,大野兽走到海湾边缘并蹲下.
“Why don’t you run and jump?”
“你为什么不跑去跳? “
asked the Scarecrow.
问稻草人.
“Because that isn’t the way we Lions do these things,” he replied.
他回答说,
Then giving a great spring, he shot through the air and landed safely on the other side.
之后给出一粒好泉水,他从空中射出并安全地落在了另一边.
They were all greatly pleased to see how easily he did it, and after the Scarecrow had got down from his back the Lion sprang across the ditch again.
他们都非常高兴地看到他这样做是多么容易, 在稻草人从他背上下来后,狮子又从沟里涌出.
Dorothy thought she would go next; so she took Toto in her arms and climbed on the Lion’s back, holding tightly to his mane with one hand.
多萝西以为她会下一位;于是她抱住多多多并爬上狮子的背上,用一只手紧紧地抱住他的外衣.
The next moment it seemed as if she were flying through the air; and then, before she had time to think about it, she was safe on the other side.
接下来的一刻,她似乎在空中飞来飞去;然后,在她有时间考虑之前,她在另一边是安全的.
The Lion went back a third time and got the Tin Woodman, and then they all sat down for a few moments to give the beast a chance to rest, for his great leaps had made his breath short, and he panted like a big dog that has been running too long.
"狮子"第三次回去取回了"天木",后来他们都坐下来,给"野兽"一个休息的机会,因为他的大跃进使他的呼吸很短,他喘得像一条跑得太久了的大狗.
They found the forest very thick on this side, and it looked dark and gloomy.
他们发现这边的森林非常茂密,看起来阴暗而阴暗.
After the Lion had rested they started along the road of yellow brick, silently wondering, each in his own mind, if ever they would come to the end of the woods and reach the bright sunshine again.
在狮子休息后,他们开始沿着黄砖的路走去,悄悄地想着,每个人在自己的脑海中,如果他们来到树林的尽头,再次到达明亮的阳光.
To add to their discomfort, they soon heard strange noises in the depths of the forest, and the Lion whispered to them that it was in this part of the country that the Kalidahs lived.
再加上他们的不适,他们很快在森林深处听到怪异的叫声,而狮子悄悄地对他们说,卡利达人正是生活在这个国家的这一地区.
“What are the Kalidahs?”
“什么是卡利达人? “
asked the girl.
问女孩。
“They are monstrous beasts with bodies like bears and heads like tigers,” replied the Lion, “and with claws so long and sharp that they could tear me in two as easily as I could kill Toto.
狮子回答说,“他们都是有熊等尸体和有虎等头的怪兽,”狮子说,“爪子长而锋利,可以把我撕成两半,这样我就能杀死多多。
I’m terribly afraid of the Kalidahs.”
我非常害怕卡利达人。 “
“I’m not surprised that you are,” returned Dorothy.
我并不感到惊讶,
“They must be dreadful beasts.”
“它们必须是可怕的野兽。 “
The Lion was about to reply when suddenly they came to another gulf across the road.
当他们突然来到另一条对面的海湾时,狮子就要回信了。
But this one was so broad and deep that the Lion knew at once he could not leap across it.
但这个太宽了,太深了 狮子立刻知道他不能跳过它
So they sat down to consider what they should do, and after serious thought the Scarecrow said: “Here is a great tree, standing close to the ditch.
于是他们坐下来考虑应该做什么,经过认真的思考后,稻草人说: “这是一棵伟大的树,站在沟边。
If the Tin Woodman can chop it down, so that it will fall to the other side, we can walk across it easily.”
如果锡木人能把它砍下来,这样它会掉到另一边,我们就很容易地走过它. “
“That is a first-rate idea,” said the Lion.
狮子会说,“这是一个一流的想法”。
“One would almost suspect you had brains in your head, instead of straw.”
“人们几乎会怀疑你的脑袋里有脑子,而不是吸管。 “
The Woodman set to work at once, and so sharp was his axe that the tree was soon chopped nearly through.
木人马上要工作了 他的斧子很锋利 所以树很快就被砍穿了
Then the Lion put his strong front legs against the tree and pushed with all his might, and slowly the big tree tipped and fell with a crash across the ditch, with its top branches on the other side.
然后狮子将他强壮的前腿倒向树上并用他所力所及的推来推去,并慢慢地被大树倒倒下并撞倒了被冲出沟来,而其上方的树枝就倒在了另一边.
They had just started to cross this bridge when a sharp growl made them all look up, and to their horror they saw running toward them two great beasts with bodies like bears and heads like tigers.
他们刚开始跨过这座桥, 当一个尖锐的咆哮让他们都抬头, 和他们的恐怖 他们看见跑向他们两个伟大的野兽 身体像熊,头像老虎。
“They are the Kalidahs!”
“他们是卡利达人!”
said the Cowardly Lion, beginning to tremble.
胆小的狮子说,开始颤抖。
“Quick!”
快点!
cried the Scarecrow.
哭着稻草人。
“Let us cross.”
“让我们过去。 “
So Dorothy went first, holding Toto in her arms, the Tin Woodman followed, and the Scarecrow came next.
于是多萝西先去,把托托抱入她怀中,"天木人"紧随其后,"稻草人"接踵而来.
The Lion, although he was certainly afraid, turned to face the Kalidahs, and then he gave so loud and terrible a roar that Dorothy screamed and the Scarecrow fell over backward, while even the fierce beasts stopped short and looked at him in surprise.
狮子虽然确实害怕了,却转而面对"卡利达"人,而后他发出如此响亮而可怕的咆哮,使多萝西大叫而稻草人倒向了后方,而即使是凶猛的野兽也短暂地停下来并惊奇地看着他.
But, seeing they were bigger than the Lion, and remembering that there were two of them and only one of him, the Kalidahs again rushed forward, and the Lion crossed over the tree and turned to see what they would do next.
但是,看到他们比"狮子"还大,并且记得他们有两个人,只有一个他,卡利达人又冲了过来,"狮子"越过了树上,转而看看他们接下来会做什么.
Without stopping an instant the fierce beasts also began to cross the tree.
凶猛的野兽也开始越过树
And the Lion said to Dorothy: “We are lost, for they will surely tear us to pieces with their sharp claws.
狮子对多萝西说:我们迷路了,因为他们必定用锋利的爪子把我们撕成碎片。
But stand close behind me, and I will fight them as long as I am alive.”
但站在我身后 只要我还活着 我会和他们战斗 “
“Wait a minute!”
“等一下!”
called the Scarecrow.
被称为稻草人。
He had been thinking what was best to be done, and now he asked the Woodman to chop away the end of the tree that rested on their side of the ditch.
他一直在想应该做什么,现在他要求伍德曼砍掉那棵树的尽头,那棵树就停在了沟边.
The Tin Woodman began to use his axe at once, and, just as the two Kalidahs were nearly across, the tree fell with a crash into the gulf, carrying the ugly, snarling brutes with it, and both were dashed to pieces on the sharp rocks at the bottom.
锡木人马上开始使用他的斧头,正如两个喀里达人几乎横行相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去
“Well,” said the Cowardly Lion, drawing a long breath of relief, “I see we are going to live a little while longer, and I am glad of it, for it must be a very uncomfortable thing not to be alive.
“好吧,”胆小鬼狮子说,“我看到我们将要活得更久一点,我为此感到高兴,因为不活着肯定很不舒服。
Those creatures frightened me so badly that my heart is beating yet.”
那些生物把我吓得心跳不已 “
“ Ah,” said the Tin Woodman sadly, “I wish I had a heart to beat.”
“...... 锡木人不幸地说:“我希望我有心跳。 “
This adventure made the travelers more anxious than ever to get out of the forest, and they walked so fast that Dorothy became tired, and had to ride on the Lion’s back.
这次冒险让出行者比以往更急于走出森林,他们走得如此快,使多萝西感到疲惫,只好骑起狮子背来.
To their great joy the trees became thinner the farther they advanced, and in the afternoon they suddenly came upon a broad river, flowing swiftly just before them.
在他们喜悦的时候,树越往前走,就越瘦;在下午,树忽然从宽阔的河上涌出,在树前迅速流动。
On the other side of the water they could see the road of yellow brick running through a beautiful country, with green meadows dotted with bright flowers and all the road bordered with trees hanging full of delicious fruits.
在水的另一边,他们可以看到穿过一个美丽的国家的黄砖道路,绿地上放着明亮的花朵,所有的道路都与满是美味水果的树木相接.
They were greatly pleased to see this delightful country before them.
他们很高兴看到这个令人愉快的国家。
“How shall we cross the river?”
“我们如何渡河? “
asked Dorothy.
问多萝西。
“That is easily done,” replied the Scarecrow.
稻草人回答道,
“The Tin Woodman must build us a raft, so we can float to the other side.”
“锡木人必须建造一木筏,这样我们才能漂到另一边去。 “
So the Woodman took his axe and began to chop down small trees to make a raft, and while he was busy at this the Scarecrow found on the riverbank a tree full of fine fruit.
于是木人取出他的斧头并开始砍倒小树来做木筏,而他忙于这件事的时候,稻草人发现了河岸上一棵满是细果的树.
This pleased Dorothy, who had eaten nothing but nuts all day, and she made a hearty meal of the ripe fruit.
这令多萝西高兴,她一天只吃坚果,她用熟果做了一顿心地的一顿.
But it takes time to make a raft, even when one is as industrious and untiring as the Tin Woodman, and when night came the work was not done.
但造出木筏需要时间,即使一个人像锡木人一样勤奋而勤奋,而当夜来时,工作没有完成.
So they found a cozy place under the trees where they slept well until the morning; and Dorothy dreamed of the Emerald City, and of the good Wizard Oz, who would soon send her back to her own home again.
于是他们在树下找到了一个舒适的地方,在那里他们睡得很好,直到早上;多萝西梦见了翡翠之城和好巫师奥兹,她很快会再次送她回自己的家.
Our little party of travelers awakened the next morning refreshed and full of hope, and Dorothy breakfasted like a princess off peaches and plums from the trees beside the river.
我们的小旅行会第二天早上醒来 充满了希望 桃乐西早餐就像一个公主 从河边的树上取出桃子和梅花
Behind them was the dark forest they had passed safely through, although they had suffered many discouragements; but before them was a lovely, sunny country that seemed to beckon them on to the Emerald City.
在他们身后是他们安全经过的黑暗森林,尽管他们遭受了许多挫折;但在他们之前,是一个可爱而阳光灿烂的国家,似乎在向翡翠之城诱发他们.
To be sure, the broad river now cut them off from this beautiful land.
当然,宽阔的河流现在 切断了他们与这片美丽的土地。
But the raft was nearly done, and after the Tin Woodman had cut a few more logs and fastened them together with wooden pins, they were ready to start.
但木筏已快完工了,在锡木人再砍出几根木头并用木针将木桩紧接后,准备起动.
Dorothy sat down in the middle of the raft and held Toto in her arms.
多萝西坐在木筏中间,将多多抱入怀中.
When the Cowardly Lion stepped upon the raft it tipped badly, for he was big and heavy; but the Scarecrow and the Tin Woodman stood upon the other end to steady it, and they had long poles in their hands to push the raft through the water.
当胆小鬼狮子踩上木筏时,它倾泻得很惨,因为他又大又重;但稻草人和锡木人站在另一端来稳住木筏,他们手里有长杆来把木筏推入水中.
They got along quite well at first, but when they reached the middle of the river the swift current swept the raft downstream, farther and farther away from the road of yellow brick.
他们起初进展相当顺利,但是当他们到达河中后,迅速的水流在下游横扫了木筏,离黄砖道越来越远.
And the water grew so deep that the long poles would not touch the bottom.
并取出水深而出出出相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相相去相去相去相去相去相去相去相相相相相相相相相相相相相相相相相相相相相相相相相相相相相相相相相相相相相相相相相相相相相相相相相相相相相相相相相相相相相相相相相相相相相相相相相相相相相相相相相相相相相
“This is bad,” said the Tin Woodman, “for if we cannot get to the land we shall be carried into the country of the Wicked Witch of the West, and she will enchant us and make us her slaves.”
Tin Woodman说,“这很糟糕,如果我们不能到达这片土地,我们将被带入西方邪恶女巫的国家,而她将给我们施以魔法并使我们成为她的奴隶。 “
“ And then I should get no brains,” said the Scarecrow.
“...... 稻草人说,
“ And I should get no courage,” said the Cowardly Lion.
“...... 胆小鬼狮子说,
“ And I should get no heart,” said the Tin Woodman.
“...... 锡木人说:“我不应该有心。”
“ And I should never get back to Kansas,” said Dorothy.
“...... 我不应该回到堪萨斯,“多萝西说。
“We must certainly get to the Emerald City if we can,” the Scarecrow continued, and he pushed so hard on his long pole that it stuck fast in the mud at the bottom of the river.
“如果我们可以的话,我们当然必须到达翡翠城。” 稻草人继续说,他把长杆推得如此用力,使它被快速地塞入了河底的泥地。
Then, before he could pull it out again—or let go—the raft was swept away, and the poor Scarecrow was left clinging to the pole in the middle of the river.
在他再拔出木筏之前,或放手,木筏被扫走,而可怜的稻草人被困在河中。
“Good-bye!”
“再见!”
he called after them, and they were very sorry to leave him.
他打电话给他们, 他们非常抱歉离开他。
Indeed, the Tin Woodman began to cry, but fortunately remembered that he might rust, and so dried his tears on Dorothy’s apron.
事实上,天木人开始哭泣,但幸运地记得他可能会生锈,于是把Dorothy围裙上的眼泪干干了.
Of course this was a bad thing for the Scarecrow.
这对稻草人当然是件坏事
“I am now worse off than when I first met Dorothy,” he thought.
“我现在比初次见到多萝西时更糟,”他认为。
“Then, I was stuck on a pole in a cornfield, where I could make-believe scare the crows, at any rate.
“然后,我被困在一个玉米地的柱子上,在那里,无论怎样,我都能相信会吓倒乌鸦。
But surely there is no use for a Scarecrow stuck on a pole in the middle of a river.
但是,在河道中央的一杆上扎上稻草人肯定没有用.
I am afraid I shall never have any brains, after all!”
恐怕我永远也不会有脑子!”
Down the stream the raft floated, and the poor Scarecrow was left far behind.
被活筏所活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活活
Then the Lion said: “Something must be done to save us.
然后狮子说:“必须做一些事情来拯救我们。
I think I can swim to the shore and pull the raft after me, if you will only hold fast to the tip of my tail.”
我想我可以游到岸上,然后拉起木筏跟着我,如果你能紧紧抓住我的尾巴. “
So he sprang into the water, and the Tin Woodman caught fast hold of his tail.
于是他一出水来,"天木人"抓住了快把尾巴.
Then the Lion began to swim with all his might toward the shore.
狮子开始用他的力量向岸上游去
It was hard work, although he was so big; but by and by they were drawn out of the current, and then Dorothy took the Tin Woodman’s long pole and helped push the raft to the land.
虽然他如此庞大,但工作很辛苦;但经过他们拉出水流后,多萝西取出"锡木人"的长杆来帮助将木筏推到地上.
They were all tired out when they reached the shore at last and stepped off upon the pretty green grass, and they also knew that the stream had carried them a long way past the road of yellow brick that led to the Emerald City.
当他们终于到达岸上并踩上漂亮的绿地草地时,他们都感到疲惫出道了,他们也知道溪流已经将他们带入了通往翡翠城的黄砖之路上.
“What shall we do now?”
“我们现在该怎么办? “
asked the Tin Woodman, as the Lion lay down on the grass to let the sun dry him.
问锡木人,一如狮子倒地于草地上取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取
“We must get back to the road, in some way,” said Dorothy.
多萝西说,“我们必须以某种方式回到道路上去。”
“The best plan will be to walk along the riverbank until we come to the road again,” remarked the Lion.
“最佳计划是沿着河岸走走,直到我们再次走上道路。”
So, when they were rested, Dorothy picked up her basket and they started along the grassy bank, to the road from which the river had carried them.
所以,当他们休息的时候,多萝西捡起她的篮子,他们沿着草地岸起步,到河边载着他们走的路去.
It was a lovely country, with plenty of flowers and fruit trees and sunshine to cheer them, and had they not felt so sorry for the poor Scarecrow, they could have been very happy.
这是一个可爱的国家, 有很多花和果树和阳光来为它们欢呼, 如果他们不觉得对不起可怜的稻草人, 他们本可以非常快乐。
They walked along as fast as they could, Dorothy only stopping once to pick a beautiful flower; and after a time the Tin Woodman cried out: “Look!”
他们走得越快越好,多萝西只停了一次去摘一朵美丽的花;一次后,天木人大叫道:"看!
Then they all looked at the river and saw the Scarecrow perched upon his pole in the middle of the water, looking very lonely and sad.
然后他们都看着河边,看见稻草人被他夹在了水边的柱子上,看起来非常孤独和悲伤.
“What can we do to save him?”
“我们能做些什么来拯救他? “
asked Dorothy.
问多萝西。
The Lion and the Woodman both shook their heads, for they did not know.
狮子和木人都摇头,因为他们不知道。
So they sat down upon the bank and gazed wistfully at the Scarecrow until a Stork flew by, who, upon seeing them, stopped to rest at the water’s edge.
于是他们坐在岸上, 凝视着稻草地, 直到一个斯多克飞过,
“Who are you and where are you going?”
“你是谁,你要去哪里? “
asked the Stork.
问斯托克。
“I am Dorothy,” answered the girl, “and these are my friends, the Tin Woodman and the Cowardly Lion; and we are going to the Emerald City.”
“我是多萝西,”女孩回答说,“这些是我的朋友、锡木人和懦夫狮子;我们要去翡翠城。 “
“This isn’t the road,” said the Stork, as she twisted her long neck and looked sharply at the queer party.
Stork说:「这不是道路,
“I know it,” returned Dorothy, “but we have lost the Scarecrow, and are wondering how we shall get him again.”
“我知道,”Dorothy回信说,“但是我们失去了稻草人,我们想知道我们如何再次得到他。 “
“Where is he?”
“他在哪里? “
asked the Stork.
问斯托克。
“Over there in the river,” answered the little girl.
“在河中”小姑娘回答说。
“If he wasn’t so big and heavy I would get him for you,” remarked the Stork.
「如果他不是那么大那么重, 我一定会帮你找到他,
“He isn’t heavy a bit,” said Dorothy eagerly, “for he is stuffed with straw; and if you will bring him back to us, we shall thank you ever and ever so much.”
Dorothy急切地说,“他不重了,因为他被稻草塞住;如果你把他带回我们身边,我们将永远感谢你。 “
“Well, I’ll try,” said the Stork, “but if I find he is too heavy to carry I shall have to drop him in the river again.”
" 好吧,我会尝试,"斯托克说:"但是如果我发现他太重了,我不得不把他再次扔入河中. “
So the big bird flew into the air and over the water till she came to where the Scarecrow was perched upon his pole.
于是大鸟飞入了空中和水面上,直到她来到稻草人被夹住在他的柱子上.
Then the Stork with her great claws grabbed the Scarecrow by the arm and carried him up into the air and back to the bank, where Dorothy and the Lion and the Tin Woodman and Toto were sitting.
接著斯多克人用她巨大的爪子抓住了手臂上的稻草人并把他抬入空中并回到了银行,多萝西和狮子和天木人和托多坐在那里.
When the Scarecrow found himself among his friends again, he was so happy that he hugged them all, even the Lion and Toto; and as they walked along he sang “Tol-de-ri-de-oh!”
当稻草人再次发现自己在朋友中间时,他非常高兴地拥抱了他们所有人,甚至狮子和多多;当他们走来走去时,他唱了"Tol-de-ri-de-oh!
at every step, he felt so gay.
在每一步,他都觉得很同性恋。
“I was afraid I should have to stay in the river forever,” he said, “but the kind Stork saved me, and if I ever get any brains I shall find the Stork again and do her some kindness in return.”
“我害怕我必须永远留在河中,”他说,“但是,这种施托克救了我,如果我有脑子的话,我将再次找到施托克人,并给她一些好处。 “
“That’s all right,” said the Stork, who was flying along beside them.
「没关系」,
“I always like to help anyone in trouble.
“我总是喜欢帮助任何有麻烦的人。
But I must go now, for my babies are waiting in the nest for me.

I hope you will find the Emerald City and that Oz will help you.”

“Thank you,” replied Dorothy, and then the kind Stork flew into the air and was soon out of sight.
Dorothy回答说,“谢谢”,然后Stork飞入空中,很快便消失。
They walked along listening to the singing of the brightly colored birds and looking at the lovely flowers which now became so thick that the ground was carpeted with them.
看着可爱的花朵 现在花朵变得如此浓密 地面被铺上地毯
There were big yellow and white and blue and purple blossoms, besides great clusters of scarlet poppies, which were so brilliant in color they almost dazzled Dorothy’s eyes.

“ Aren’t they beautiful?”
“...... 他们不漂亮吗? “
the girl asked, as she breathed in the spicy scent of the bright flowers.
女孩问, 当她呼吸 在鲜花的辣味。
“I suppose so,” answered the Scarecrow.
“我想是这样”,稻草人回答说。
“When I have brains, I shall probably like them better.”
“当我有头脑时,我可能更喜欢他们。 “
“If I only had a heart, I should love them,” added the Tin Woodman.
“如果我只有一颗心,我应该爱他们。”
“I always did like flowers,” said the Lion.
狮子说:“我总是喜欢花。”
“They seem so helpless and frail.
“他们似乎如此无助和脆弱。
But there are none in the forest so bright as these.”
但森林里没有这么亮的 “
They now came upon more and more of the big scarlet poppies, and fewer and fewer of the other flowers; and soon they found themselves in the midst of a great meadow of poppies.
他们现在越来越喜欢红花大花朵, 其他花朵越来越少; 很快他们发现自己在一大片花朵中。
Now it is well known that when there are many of these flowers together their odor is so powerful that anyone who breathes it falls asleep, and if the sleeper is not carried away from the scent of the flowers, he sleeps on and on forever.
现在众所周知,当这些花有许多在一起的时候,它们的气味是如此强大,以至于任何呼吸的人会睡倒;而如果睡倒的人没有被花的气味带走,他就会永远地入睡.
But Dorothy did not know this, nor could she get away from the bright red flowers that were everywhere about; so presently her eyes grew heavy and she felt she must sit down to rest and to sleep.
但多萝西并不知道这一点,她也无法远离到处可见的明亮的红色花朵;所以她目前的眼睛变得沉重,她觉得必须坐下来休息和入睡.
But the Tin Woodman would not let her do this.
但天木人不会让她这么做的
“We must hurry and get back to the road of yellow brick before dark,” he said; and the Scarecrow agreed with him.
他说,“我们必须抓紧时间,在天黑前回到黄砖之路上,”稻草人同意他的看法。
So they kept walking until Dorothy could stand no longer.
所以他们一直走 直到多萝西站不住脚
Her eyes closed in spite of herself and she forgot where she was and fell among the poppies, fast asleep.
她不顾自己而闭着眼睛,忘记了自己身处何处,倒入了罂粟花中,迅速入睡.
“What shall we do?”
“我们该怎么办? “
asked the Tin Woodman.
问天木人.
“If we leave her here she will die,” said the Lion.
狮子说,“如果我们把她留在这里,她就会死。”
“The smell of the flowers is killing us all.
“花的味道正在杀死我们所有人。
I myself can scarcely keep my eyes open, and the dog is asleep already.”
我自己几乎不能睁开眼睛,狗已经睡着了. “
It was true; Toto had fallen down beside his little mistress.
是真的,托多在他小情人旁边倒下
But the Scarecrow and the Tin Woodman, not being made of flesh, were not troubled by the scent of the flowers.
但稻草人和天木人,不是由肉所制而成,并没有被花香所困扰.
“Run fast,” said the Scarecrow to the Lion, “and get out of this deadly flower bed as soon as you can.
稻草人对狮子说,“快跑,尽快从这个致命花被上下来。
We will bring the little girl with us, but if you should fall asleep you are too big to be carried.”
我们会把小女孩带过来的 但是如果你睡着的话 你太大了,不能被抬起来 “
So the Lion aroused himself and bounded forward as fast as he could go.
于是"狮子"唤起自己,并尽可能快地向前行走.
In a moment he was out of sight.
在一瞬间,他不在视线之内。
“Let us make a chair with our hands and carry her,” said the Scarecrow.
稻草人说,
So they picked up Toto and put the dog in Dorothy’s lap, and then they made a chair with their hands for the seat and their arms for the arms and carried the sleeping girl between them through the flowers.
于是他们接起托托,把狗放入多萝西的腿上,然后用手做把椅子来换座位,用手臂来换手臂,把睡后的女孩从花间抬走.
On and on they walked, and it seemed that the great carpet of deadly flowers that surrounded them would never end.
他们走来走去,似乎环绕着他们的致命花朵的伟大地毯永无止境.
They followed the bend of the river, and at last came upon their friend the Lion, lying fast asleep among the poppies.
他们沿着河道走,终于碰到了他们的朋友"狮子",在罂粟花中迅速入睡.
The flowers had been too strong for the huge beast and he had given up at last, and fallen only a short distance from the end of the poppy bed, where the sweet grass spread in beautiful green fields before them.
花朵对巨大的野兽来说太强了,他终于放弃了,从罂粟床的尽头只掉入了很短的距离,在他们之前的美丽绿地中甜草会蔓延出.
“We can do nothing for him,” said the Tin Woodman, sadly; “for he is much too heavy to lift.
锡木人说:“我们无法为他做任何事情,”可悲地说,“因为他太重,无法抬起。
We must leave him here to sleep on forever, and perhaps he will dream that he has found courage at last.”
我们必须让他永远睡在这里,也许他会梦到他终于找到了勇气。 “
“I’m sorry,” said the Scarecrow.
稻草人说,
“The Lion was a very good comrade for one so cowardly.
“雄狮是一个如此懦弱的好同志。
But let us go on.”
但是让我们继续吧。 “
They carried the sleeping girl to a pretty spot beside the river, far enough from the poppy field to prevent her breathing any more of the poison of the flowers, and here they laid her gently on the soft grass and waited for the fresh breeze to waken her.
他们把睡后的女孩带到了河边的漂亮地段,距离罂粟地足够远了,以防止她再呼吸出花的毒药来,他们在这里轻轻地将她放入了柔软的草地上并等待着新鲜的微风来唤醒她.
