Peter Pan — Page 9

Chinese → English Chapter X. Level 4/10

最终,他们都躺上了床,等待温迪讲故事——那个他们最爱听的故事,却也是彼得最讨厌的故事。

And then at last they all got into bed for Wendy's story, the story they loved best, the story Peter hated.

通常每当她开始讲这个故事时,他要么离开房间,要么用双手捂住耳朵;

Usually when she began to tell this story he left the room or put his hands over his ears;

也许如果他这次也做了其中一件事,他们也许还都留在那座岛上。

and possibly if he had done either of those things this time they might all still be on the island.

但是今晚,他留在了自己的凳子上;我们将会看到接下来发生了什么。

But to-night he remained on his stool; and we shall see what happened.
