Suddenly I noticed that one of the giants was very close tome.
突然我發(fā)現(xiàn)其中一個巨人離我很近。
As his huge foot rose over my head,I screamed as loudly as Icould. He looked around on the ground,and finally sawme.He stared at me for a moment,then very carefully,hepicked me up with finger and thumb and looked at me.
當(dāng)他的大腳提到我的頭上時,我竭力尖叫起來。他向地上四處看,終于看見我了。他盯了我一會兒,然后非常小心地用指頭和拇指拈起我來看。
I was now twenty metres up in the air,and I desperately hoped he would not decide to throw meto the ground.I did not struggle,and spoke politely to him,although I knew he did notunderstand any of my languages.He took me to the farmer,who soon realized that I was notan animal,but an intelligent being.He carefully put me in his pocket and took me home to showto his wife.
我現(xiàn)在離地20米,我急切地希望他不會把我往地上摔。我沒有掙扎,而是禮貌地對他說話,雖然我知道他不會聽懂我的任何語言。他把我拿到了農(nóng)場主面前,后者很快就明白了我不是動物,而是一個智慧生命。他小心地把我放在衣袋里,把我拿回家給他妻子看。
When she saw me,she screamed and jumped back in fear,perhaps thinking I was aninsect.But in a little while she became used to me,and was very kind to me.
她看見我時尖叫了起來,害怕得躲了回去,也許她以為我是個昆蟲,不過一會兒后她就習(xí)慣了我,并且對我很仁慈。
