Peter Pan — Page 10

「
"Oh no, he isn't grown up," Wendy assured her confidently, "and he is just my size."
「哦，不，他还没长大，」温迪自信地向她保证，「他和我一样大。」
She meant that he was her size in both mind and body; she didn't know how she knew, she just knew it.
她的意思是他在心智和身体上都与她一般大；她不知道自己是怎么知道的，她就是知道。
Mrs. Darling consulted Mr. Darling, but he smiled pooh-pooh.
达林太太去征询达林先生的意见，但他不屑一顾地笑了笑。
"Mark my words," he said, "it is some nonsense Nana has been putting into their heads; just the sort of idea a dog would have.
「你记着我的话，」他说，「这不过是娜娜灌输给他们的一些胡言乱语；正是一条狗会有的那种想法。
Leave it alone, and it will blow over."
不去理它，它自然会消散的。」
But it would not blow over and soon the troublesome boy gave Mrs. Darling quite a shock.
但这事并没有消散，不久那个麻烦的男孩给达林太太带来了相当大的震惊。
Children have the strangest adventures without being troubled by them.
孩子们会经历种种奇异的冒险，却丝毫不为此烦恼。
For instance, they may remember to mention, a week after the event happened, that when they were in the wood they had met their dead father and had a game with him.
例如，他们可能会在事情发生一周后才想起来提及，说他们在树林里遇见了已故的父亲，还和他一起玩了游戏。
It was in this casual way that Wendy one morning made a disquieting revelation.
正是以这种漫不经心的方式，温迪在某天早晨透露了一件令人不安的事。
Some leaves of a tree had been found on the nursery floor, which certainly were not there when the children went to bed, and Mrs. Darling was puzzling over them when Wendy said with a tolerant smile:
育儿室的地板上发现了一些树叶，那些树叶在孩子们上床睡觉时肯定还不在那里，达林太太正对此百思不解，这时温迪带着一丝宽容的微笑说道：
"I do believe it is that Peter again!"
「我真的相信这又是那个彼得干的！」
"Whatever do you mean, Wendy?"
「你到底是什么意思，温迪？」
"It is so naughty of him not to wipe his feet," Wendy said, sighing.
「他不擦脚就进来，真是太淘气了，」温迪叹气道。
She was a tidy child.
她是个爱整洁的孩子。
