Adventures of Huckleberry Finn — Page 5

English → Chinese CHAPTER II. Level 6/10

Well, when Tom and me got to the edge of the hilltop we looked away down into the village and could see three or four lights twinkling, where there was sick folks, maybe; and the stars over us was sparkling ever so fine; and down by the village was the river, a whole mile broad, and awful still and grand.

嗯，当汤姆和我走到山顶边缘时，我们俯瞰着村子，能看到三四盏灯在闪烁，那里也许住着病人；我们头顶上的星星闪闪发光，美极了；村子旁边是那条河，足足有一英里宽，静得出奇，气势雄伟。

We went down the hill and found Jo Harper and Ben Rogers, and two or three more of the boys, hid in the old tanyard.

我们下了山，找到了乔·哈珀和本·罗杰斯，还有两三个其他男孩，他们都藏在那座旧制革厂里。

So we unhitched a skiff and pulled down the river two mile and a half, to the big scar on the hillside, and went ashore.

于是我们解开一条小船，沿河划行了两英里半，到达山坡上那块大裂痕处，然后上了岸。

We went to a clump of bushes, and Tom made everybody swear to keep the secret, and then showed them a hole in the hill, right in the thickest part of the bushes.

我们走向一丛灌木，汤姆让大家发誓保守秘密，然后给他们看了山上的一个洞口，就在灌木最茂密的地方。

Then we lit the candles, and crawled in on our hands and knees.

然后我们点燃蜡烛，手脚并用地爬了进去。

We went about two hundred yards, and then the cave opened up.

我们走了大约两百码，山洞豁然开朗。

Tom poked about amongst the passages, and pretty soon ducked under a wall where you wouldn't a noticed that there was a hole.

汤姆在通道间四处探摸，很快便猫腰钻过一道墙壁，那里有个洞口，你根本不会注意到。

We went along a narrow place and got into a kind of room, all damp and sweaty and cold, and there we stopped.

我们沿着一条狭窄的地方走去，进入了一个像房间一样的地方，四处潮湿、阴冷，我们便在那里停了下来。

Tom says:

汤姆说道：

"Now, we'll start this band of robbers and call it Tom Sawyer's Gang.

「好了，我们现在来组建这支强盗帮，就叫它汤姆·索亚帮。

Everybody that wants to join has got to take an oath, and write his name in blood."

凡是想加入的人都得发誓，并用血写下自己的名字。」

Everybody was willing.

大家都愿意。
