to bottom with great pieces of rock.
下方有大块石头
“That will be a hard climb,” said the Scarecrow, “but we must get over the hill, nevertheless.”
稻草人说,“那将是一个艰难的攀登”,“但我们必须过山去。 “
So he led the way and the others followed.
于是他带领了道路,其他人也随之而来.
They had nearly reached the first rock when they heard a rough voice cry out, “Keep back!”
当他们听到一个粗糙的声音喊出“退后!
“Who are you?”
“你是谁? “
asked the Scarecrow.
问稻草人.
Then a head showed itself over the rock and the same voice said, “This hill belongs to us, and we don’t allow anyone to cross it.”
一个头在岩石上露出面来, “
“But we must cross it,” said the Scarecrow.
稻草人说,“但是我们必须跨越它。”
“We’re going to the country of the Quadlings.”
“我们要去四方之国。 “
“But you shall not!”
你们绝不要!
replied the voice, and there stepped from behind the rock the strangest man the travelers had ever seen.
回答声音,然后从岩石后踩出 最奇怪的人,旅行者见过。
He was quite short and stout and had a big head, which was flat at the top and supported by a thick neck full of wrinkles.
他身材矮小又结实,头部很大,顶部平坦,并有厚厚的颈部被皱纹所支撑.
But he had no arms at all, and, seeing this, the Scarecrow did not fear that so helpless a creature could prevent them from climbing the hill.
但他完全没有手臂,看到这个,稻草人并不担心如此无助的生物会阻止他们爬上山去.
So he said, “I’m sorry not to do as you wish, but we must pass over your hill whether you like it or not,” and he walked boldly forward.
所以他说,“很抱歉没有按你的意愿去做,但无论你喜不喜欢,我们必须越过你的山,”他大胆地向前走去。
As quick as lightning the man’s head shot forward and his neck stretched out until the top of the head, where it was flat, struck the Scarecrow in the middle and sent him tumbling, over and over, down the hill.
他的头朝前被闪电击中,颈部被拉出,直到头顶被平地击中了中地的稻草人并让他翻倒地下山去。
Almost as quickly as it came the head went back to the body, and the man laughed harshly as he said, “It isn’t as easy as you think!”
几乎一到头就回到了尸体上,这名男子笑了起来,就像他说的:“这不是你想的那么容易!”
A chorus of boisterous laughter came from the other rocks, and Dorothy saw hundreds of the armless Hammer-Heads upon the hillside, one behind every rock.
一群狂欢的笑声从其他岩石中来,多萝西在山坡上看到了数百个无臂的锤头,每块岩石后都有一个.
The Lion became quite angry at the laughter caused by the Scarecrow’s mishap, and giving a loud roar that echoed like thunder, he dashed up the hill.
狮子对稻草人的不幸所引发的欢笑感到非常愤怒, 并发出响亮的吼叫,
Again a head shot swiftly out, and the great Lion went rolling down the hill as if he had been struck by a cannon ball.
一颗头又被迅速射出,伟大的狮子从山上滚下,仿佛被一发大炮所击中.
Dorothy ran down and helped the Scarecrow to his feet, and the Lion came up to her, feeling rather bruised and sore, and said, “It is useless to fight people with shooting heads; no one can withstand them.”
多萝西跑倒了,帮助稻草人站起脚来,狮子走到她面前,感觉相当伤痕累累地痛,说道:"用枪头与人搏斗是没用的;没有人能承受住. “
“What can we do, then?”
“那么,我们该怎么办? “
she asked.
她问。
“Call the Winged Monkeys,” suggested the Tin Woodman.
“唤起翼猴,”建议“锡木人”。
“You have still the right to command them once more.”
“你仍有权再次指挥他们。 “
“Very well,” she answered, and putting on the Golden Cap she uttered the magic words.
她回答说,“非常好,”她把神奇的言语放在了金顶上。
The Monkeys were as prompt as ever, and in a few moments the entire band stood before her.
猴子队和以前一样迅速 几分钟后整个乐队都站在她面前
“What are your commands?”
“你们有什么命令? “
inquired the King of the Monkeys, bowing low.

“Carry us over the hill to the country of the Quadlings,” answered the girl.
女孩回答说:“把我们从山上带到四方国。”
“It shall be done,” said the King, and at once the Winged Monkeys caught the four travelers and Toto up in their arms and flew away with them.
国王说,“应该做到的”,同时,翼猴们抓住了四个旅行者,托托在他们的怀里飞走。
As they passed over the hill the Hammer- Heads yelled with vexation, and shot their heads high in the air, but they could not reach the Winged Monkeys, which carried Dorothy and her comrades safely over the hill and set them down in the beautiful country of the Quadlings.
当他们从山上走过时,"锤子-头"大叫出气来,并高高地射出头来,但是他们无法到达"翼起的猴子",这群猴子将多萝西和她的战友安全地从山上抬上并放入了美丽的"四方"之地.
“This is the last time you can summon us,” said the leader to Dorothy; “so good-bye and good luck to you.”
领导人对多萝西说,“这是你最后一次能够召唤我们,”“祝你好运。 “
“Good-bye, and thank you very much,” returned the girl; and the Monkeys rose into the air and were out of sight in a twinkling.
“再见,非常感谢”,把女孩送回去;猴子们飞起来,在一瞬间看不见。
The country of the Quadlings seemed rich and happy.
四方所生之国,相貌富贵相悦.
There was field upon field of ripening grain, with well-paved roads running between, and pretty rippling brooks with strong bridges across them.
田地上有成熟的谷物, 铺满了道路, 和相当平整的溪流 并有坚固的桥梁。
The fences and houses and bridges were all painted bright red, just as they had been painted yellow in the country of the Winkies and blue in the country of the Munchkins.
栅栏和房屋及桥梁都被漆成明亮的红色,就像在温克人的国家被漆成黄色,而芒克金人的国家被漆成蓝色一样.
The Quadlings themselves, who were short and fat and looked chubby and good-natured, were dressed all in red, which showed bright against the green grass and the yellowing grain.

The Monkeys had set them down near a farmhouse, and the four travelers walked up to it and knocked at the door.
猴子们把他们放倒在一个农舍附近,四个出行者走到了那里并敲门.
It was opened by the farmer’s wife, and when Dorothy asked for something to eat the woman gave them all a good dinner, with three kinds of cake and four kinds of cookies, and a bowl of milk for Toto.
由农民的妻子开出,当多萝西要求吃东西时,女方给了她们一顿好饭,有三种蛋糕和四种饼干,一碗牛奶给多多.
“How far is it to the Castle of Glinda?”
“距离格林达城堡有多远? “
asked the child.
问孩子。
“Not far,” answered the farmer’s wife.
" 不远 " 农民的妻子回答说。
“Take the road to the South and you will soon reach it.”
“走去南方的道路,你很快就会到达。 “
Thanking the good woman, they started afresh and walked by the fields and across the pretty bridges until they saw before them a very beautiful Castle.
感谢这位好女人,他们重新开始,走过田地和漂亮的桥梁,直到他们看到一个非常美丽的城堡。
Before the gates were three young girls, dressed in handsome red uniforms trimmed with gold braid; and as Dorothy approached, one of them said to her: “Why have you come to the South Country?”
在城门之前,有三个年轻姑娘穿着英俊的红色制服被金发辫子修剪;当多萝西接近时,其中一人对她说道:"你为什么来到南方国家? “
“To see the Good Witch who rules here,” she answered.
她回答说,
“Will you take me to her?”
"你会带我去见她吗? “
“Let me have your name, and I will ask Glinda if she will receive you.”
“让我知道你的名字,我会问Glinda是否接受你。 “
They told who they were, and the girl soldier went into the Castle.
他们告诉了自己是谁,女兵进入了城堡.
After a few moments she came back to say that Dorothy and the others were to be admitted at once.
几分钟后,她回来说,多萝西和其他人要马上被录取.
Before they went to see Glinda, however, they were taken to a room of the Castle, where Dorothy washed her face and combed her hair, and the Lion shook the dust out of his mane, and the Scarecrow patted himself into his best shape, and the Woodman polished his tin and oiled his joints.
然而,在他们去见格林达之前,他们被带入了城堡的一个房间,多萝西洗了脸并梳了头发,狮子从他身上摇出灰尘来,稻草人把自己拍成他最好的形状,而伍德曼将他的锡擦光并给他的关节取油.
When they were all quite presentable they followed the soldier girl into a big room where the Witch Glinda sat upon a throne of rubies.
当她们都非常现相时,他们跟随士兵女孩走进一个大房间,巫师格林达坐在红宝石的宝座上.
She was both beautiful and young to their eyes.
她既美丽又年轻
Her hair was a rich red in color and fell in flowing ringlets over her shoulders.
她的发色很红 肩膀上流着戒指
Her dress was pure white but her eyes were blue, and they looked kindly upon the little girl.
她的裙子是纯白色的,但眼睛是蓝色的,她们对小女孩很友善.
“What can I do for you, my child?”
“我的孩子,我能为你做什么? “
she asked.
她问。
Dorothy told the Witch all her story: how the cyclone had brought her to the Land of Oz, how she had found her companions, and of the wonderful adventures they had met with.
多萝西向女巫讲述了她的全部故事:气旋是如何将她带到了"奥兹之地",她是如何找到同伴的,以及她们相遇的奇妙历险.
“My greatest wish now,” she added, “is to get back to Kansas, for Aunt Em will surely think something dreadful has happened to me, and that will make her put on mourning; and unless the crops are better this year than they were last, I am sure Uncle Henry cannot afford it.”
她补充说,“我现在最大的愿望是回到堪萨斯州,因为埃姆姨妈肯定会认为我发生了可怕的事,这会使她丧心病狂;除非今年的收成比上次好,我确信亨利叔叔负担不起。 “
Glinda leaned forward and kissed the sweet, upturned face of the loving little girl.
格琳达向前倾斜并亲吻了可爱而回升的小女孩相貌.
“Bless your dear heart,” she said, “I am sure I can tell you of a way to get back to Kansas.”
她说,“祝你亲爱的心安,”“我相信我可以告诉你回到堪萨斯的方法。 “
Then she added, “But, if I do, you must give me the Golden Cap.”
然后她又说:“但是,如果我这样做,你必须把金帽给我。”
“Willingly!”
“愿意!”
exclaimed Dorothy; “indeed, it is of no use to me now, and when you have it you can command the Winged Monkeys three times.”
欢呼 Dorothy;“事实上,它现在对我毫无用处,当你拥有它时,你可以三次指挥翼猴队。 “
“ And I think I shall need their service just those three times,” answered Glinda, smiling.
“...... 我认为我需要他们的服务,
Dorothy then gave her the Golden Cap, and the Witch said to the Scarecrow, “What will you do when Dorothy has left us?”
桃乐丝随后给了她"金帽",巫师对稻草人说:"桃乐丝离开我们后你会怎么做? “
“I will return to the Emerald City,” he replied, “for Oz has made me its ruler and the people like me.
他说,“我会回到翡翠城,”“因为奥兹使我成为其统治者和像我这样的人民。
The only thing that worries me is how to cross the hill of the Hammer-Heads.”
我唯一担心的就是如何穿过锤头山 “
“Using the Golden Cap I shall command the Winged Monkeys to carry you to the gates of the Emerald City,” said Glinda, “for it would be a shame to deprive the people of so wonderful a ruler.”
" 使用金色相片 Glinda说,“如果剥夺人民如此伟大的统治者,那将是一种耻辱。 “
“ Am I really wonderful?”
“...... 我真的很棒吗? “
asked the Scarecrow.
问稻草人.
“You are unusual,” replied Glinda.
Glinda回答说,“你不同寻常”。
Turning to the Tin Woodman, she asked, “What will become of you when Dorothy leaves this country?”
谈到丁木人,她问道:"多萝西离开这个国家后,你会变成怎样? “
He leaned on his axe and thought a moment.
他靠在斧子上想了一会儿
Then he said, “The Winkies were very kind to me, and wanted me to rule over them after the Wicked Witch died.
然后他说:“温克人对我很好,在邪恶女巫死后,希望我统治他们。
I am fond of the Winkies, and if I could get back again to the Country of the West, I should like nothing better than to rule over them forever.”
我很喜欢温克人 如果我能回到西方国家 我最想的就是永远统治他们 “
“My second command to the Winged Monkeys,” said Glinda, “will be that they carry you safely to the land of the Winkies.
Glinda说,“我的第二道命令是,“他们把你安全地带到温基斯人的地方去。
Your brain may not be so large to look at as those of the Scarecrow, but you are really brighter than he is—when you are well polished—and I am sure you will rule the Winkies wisely and well.”
你的大脑可能并不那么大, 看上去像稻草人, 但你真的比他更亮—— 当你被打光的时候—— 我敢肯定,你将明智和很好地统治温基人。 “
Then the Witch looked at the big, shaggy Lion and asked, “When Dorothy has returned to her own home, what will become of you?”
然后巫婆看着那头大而肥胖的狮子,问道:"当多萝西回到她自己的家后,你会变成怎样? “
“Over the hill of the Hammer-Heads,” he answered, “lies a grand old forest, and all the beasts that live there have made me their King.
他回答说,“在锤子头的山上,”“有一个宏伟的老森林,所有住在那里的野兽都让我成为他们的国王。
If I could only get back to this forest, I would pass my life very happily there.”
如果我能回到这片森林里 我会很幸福地过上我的生活 “
“My third command to the Winged Monkeys,” said Glinda, “shall be to carry you to your forest.
格林达说,“我的第三道命令是给翼猴队的,”是“把你带到森林去。
Then, having used up the powers of the Golden Cap, I shall give it to the King of the Monkeys, that he and his band may thereafter be free for evermore.”
然后,在用光了"金帽"的威力之后,我将把它交给"猴子之王",以便他和他的乐队此后可以永远自由. “
The Scarecrow and the Tin Woodman and the Lion now thanked the Good Witch earnestly for her kindness; and Dorothy exclaimed: “You are certainly as good as you are beautiful!
稻草人和锡木人和狮子现在真诚感谢好女巫的好意;而多萝西则赞叹道: “你确是优美的,
But you have not yet told me how to get back to Kansas.”
但你还没有告诉我怎么回堪萨斯州 “
“Your Silver Shoes will carry you over the desert,” replied Glinda.
“你的银鞋会把你带过沙漠,”
“If you had known their power you could have gone back to your Aunt Em the very first day you came to this country.”
“如果你知道他们的力量,你就可以在你来到这个国家的第一天回到你的Em阿姨身边。 “
“But then I should not have had my wonderful brains!”
我本不该有聪明的头脑!
cried the Scarecrow.
哭着稻草人。
“I might have passed my whole life in the farmer’s cornfield.”
“我可能在农地度过了一生。 “
“ And I should not have had my lovely heart,” said the Tin Woodman.
“...... 我不应该有我可爱的心,“Tin Woodman说。
“I might have stood and rusted in the forest till the end of the world.”
“我可能站在森林中生锈到世界末日。 “
“ And I should have lived a coward forever,” declared the Lion, “and no beast in all the forest would have had a good word to say to me.”
“...... 我本应该永远活在懦夫的面前,”狮子宣称,“在所有森林里,没有一个野兽会对我说一个好话。 “
“This is all true,” said Dorothy, “and I am glad I was of use to these good friends.
Dorothy说,“这一切都是真的,我很高兴我对这些好朋友有用。
But now that each of them has had what he most desired, and each is happy in having a kingdom to rule besides, I think I should like to go back to Kansas.”
但是现在他们每个人都得到了他最想要的, 并且每个人都很高兴有一个王国来统治, 此外,我想我应该回到堪萨斯州。 “
“The Silver Shoes,” said the Good Witch, “have wonderful powers.
“好女巫”说,“银鞋具有极好的力量。
And one of the most curious things about them is that they can carry you to any place in the world in three steps, and each step will be made in the wink of an eye.
他们最好奇的一件事是 他们可以把你们带到世界上任何一处 分出三步走,每一步都会被用一双眼花开
All you have to do is to knock the heels together three times and command the shoes to carry you wherever you wish to go.”
你要做的就是把高跟鞋敲了三下 命令穿鞋去任何地方 “
“If that is so,” said the child joyfully, “I will ask them to carry me back to Kansas at once.”
“如果是这样的话,”这位儿童欣喜地说:“我将要求他们马上把我带回堪萨斯。 “
She threw her arms around the Lion’s neck and kissed him, patting his big head tenderly.
她将手臂扔到狮子的脖子上并亲吻他,轻轻地拍打他的大头.
Then she kissed the Tin Woodman, who was weeping in a way most dangerous to his joints.
之后她接吻了"天木人"(Tin Woodman),后者的哭声对他的关节极为危险.
But she hugged the soft, stuffed body of the Scarecrow in her arms instead of kissing his painted face, and found she was crying herself at this sorrowful parting from her loving comrades.
但是她拥抱了怀中稻草人柔软而被塞入的身体,而不是亲吻他被画出的脸相,发现她正在从相爱的战友中悲哀地分道扬镳地哭泣.
Glinda the Good stepped down from her ruby throne to give the little girl a good-bye kiss, and Dorothy thanked her for all the kindness she had shown to her friends and herself.
"好人"格琳达从她红宝石王位上下台给小女孩一个"再见"的接吻,多萝西感谢她对朋友和自己表现出来的一切好心.
Dorothy now took Toto up solemnly in her arms, and having said one last good-bye she clapped the heels of her shoes together three times, saying: “Take me home to Aunt Em!”
桃乐西现在拿了 在她怀中庄严地站起来,在最后一次告别之后,她将鞋子的后跟一起拍了三次,说: “送我回家去Em阿姨那里!”
Instantly she was whirling through the air, so swiftly that all she could see or feel was the wind whistling past her ears.
她瞬间在空气中呼啸,如此之快,以至于她所能看到的或感觉到的只是吹过她耳朵的风.
The Silver Shoes took but three steps, and then she stopped so suddenly that she rolled over upon the grass several times before she knew where she was.
银鞋只迈出了三步,然后她突然停了下来,在知道她在哪里之前,她翻了好几次草地.
At length, however, she sat up and looked about her.
然而,她却坐了起来,看着她。
“Good gracious!”
“亲爱的! “
she cried.
她哭着
For she was sitting on the broad Kansas prairie, and just before her was the new farmhouse Uncle Henry built after the cyclone had carried away the old one.
因为她坐在堪萨斯大草原上 就在她之前 新的农舍 亨利叔叔在气旋冲走旧的
Uncle Henry was milking the cows in the barnyard, and Toto had jumped out of her arms and was running toward the barn, barking furiously.
亨利叔叔在谷仓里给牛挤奶,而多多从她的怀里跳出并跑去谷仓,狂叫.
Dorothy stood up and found she was in her stocking-feet.
桃乐西站起来发现她在她的丝袜脚上
For the Silver Shoes had fallen off in her flight through the air, and were lost forever in the desert.
因为银鞋在她空中的飞行中脱落 永远迷失在沙漠中
Aunt Em had just come out of the house to water the cabbages when she looked up and saw Dorothy running toward her.
姑妈 Em刚从屋里出来给小白菜取水 她抬头看着多萝西朝她跑去
“My darling child!”
"亲爱的孩子!"
she cried, folding the little girl in her arms and covering her face with kisses.
她哭了,把小女孩放在怀里并用吻来遮住她的脸.
“Where in the world did you come from?”
“你从哪里来? “
“From the Land of Oz,” said Dorothy gravely.
Dorothy严肃地说:“来自奥兹之地”。
“ And here is Toto, too.
“...... 还有托多
And oh, Aunt Em!
还有埃姆阿姨!
I’m so glad to be at home again!”
我很高兴能再次回到家! “
