LESSON XXXV.--REVIEW.

LIÇÃO XXXV.--REVISÃO.

Bess, do you hear a noise?

Bess, você ouve um barulho?

Yes, Tom; what is it?

Sim, Tom; o que é isso?

It is the mill by our house; logs are cut there.

É o moinho perto da nossa casa; lá cortam toras de madeira.

How do they cut the logs, Tom,--with an ax?

Como eles cortam as toras, Tom,--com um machado?

Not with an ax, Bess; it is too hard work; they cut them with a saw.

Não com um machado, Bess; é um trabalho muito difícil; eles as cortam com uma serra.

May we not go and see the mill at work, Tom?

Não podemos ir ver o moinho funcionando, Tom?

Yes, I think so. The air is cool, and we can walk in the shade. We should go soon, Bess, or the pile of wood will be gone.

Sim, acho que sim. O ar está fresco, e podemos caminhar na sombra. Devemos ir logo, Bess, ou a pilha de madeira vai acabar.

Our two goats and the cart are here, Tom; we can ride to the mill. It is not up hill, and the goats can pull us fast.

Nossas duas cabras e a carroça estão aqui, Tom; podemos ir ao moinho de carroça. Não é morro acima, e as cabras podem nos puxar rápido.
