Peter Pan — Page 11

然后他打开了窗栓。"来吧，婷克，"他对大自然的法则露出可怕的冷笑，"我们不需要什么愚蠢的母亲。"说完他便飞走了。

Then he unbarred the window. "Come on, Tink," he cried, with a frightful sneer at the laws of nature; "we don't want any silly mothers;" and he flew away.

就这样，温迪、约翰和迈克尔发现窗户终究还是为他们开着的，这当然比他们所应得的要好得多。他们落在地板上，毫无羞愧之意，而年纪最小的那个已经忘记了自己的家。

Thus Wendy and John and Michael found the window open for them after all, which of course was more than they deserved. They alighted on the floor, quite unashamed of themselves, and the youngest one had already forgotten his home.

"约翰，"他说，四处张望，神情疑惑，"我觉得我以前来过这里。"

"John," he said, looking around him doubtfully, "I think I have been here before."

"Let me see father," Michael begged eagerly, and he took a good look. "He is not so big as the pirate I killed," he said with such frank disappointment that I am glad Mr. Darling was asleep; it would have been sad if those had been the first words he heard his little Michael say.

温迪和约翰发现父亲竟然睡在狗窝里，都大吃一惊。

Wendy and John had been taken aback somewhat at finding their father in the kennel.

"说起来，"约翰说，像一个对自己的记忆失去信心的人，"他以前不是睡在狗窝里的吧？"

"Surely," said John, like one who had lost faith in his memory, "he used not to sleep in the kennel?
