Peter Pan — Page 1
感觉到彼得正在回来的路上，梦幻岛再次苏醒了。
Feeling that Peter was on his way back, the Neverland had again woke into life.
我们应该用过去完成时，说"wakened"，但"woke"更好，而且彼得一直都这么用。
We ought to use the pluperfect and say wakened, but woke is better and was always used by Peter.
在他不在的时候，岛上通常很平静。
In his absence things are usually quiet on the island.
仙子们早晨多睡一个小时，野兽们照料自己的幼崽，红人们连续六天六夜大吃大喝，海盗和迷失的男孩们相遇时也只是互相竖起大拇指比个鄙视的手势。
The fairies take an hour longer in the morning, the beasts attend to their young, the redskins feed heavily for six days and nights, and when pirates and lost boys meet they merely bite their thumbs at each other.
但随着彼得的到来——他最讨厌懒散——大家又都行动起来了：如果你现在把耳朵贴近地面，就能听到整座岛上生机勃勃的声音。
But with the coming of Peter, who hates lethargy, they are under way again: if you put your ear to the ground now, you would hear the whole island seething with life.
这天傍晚，岛上各方主要力量分布如下。
On this evening the chief forces of the island were disposed as follows.
迷失的男孩们出去寻找彼得，海盗们出去寻找迷失的男孩们，红人们出去寻找海盗，野兽们出去寻找红人。
The lost boys were out looking for Peter, the pirates were out looking for the lost boys, the redskins were out looking for the pirates, and the beasts were out looking for the redskins.
他们绕着岛转啊转，却始终没有相遇，因为所有人的速度都一样。
They were going round and round the island, but they did not meet because all were going at the same rate.
除了男孩们，所有人都想流血——男孩们平时也喜欢这个，但今晚他们出来是为了迎接他们的船长。
All wanted blood except the boys, who liked it as a rule, but to-night were out to greet their captain.
