白兔的房子
講述者
Hello. Alice fell down a Rabbit Hole one day and found herself in a Wonderland, where Animals talk, curious things happen and everything she eats and drinks makes her grow bigger or smaller. Nowshe is sitting alone. Suddenly, she heard footsteps. The White Rabbit was running towards her. He seemed to be very worried.
大家好,我們接著講故事。Alice掉進了兔子洞以後經歷了許許多多奇怪的事:身體變大又變小,會說話的動物…現在她正一個人坐在地上,突然聽到遠處的腳步聲,原來是那隻白兔朝她跑了過來,看起來很慌張的樣子。
白兔
Oh dear! Where can I have dropped them? I must find them, or I'm sure The Duchess will chop off my head!
喔親愛的!我把它們扔哪裡了?我必須得找到它們,否則公爵夫人會砍我腦袋的!
講述者
Alice guessed he was looking for the gloves and fan that he had dropped - but she didn't know where they were either. After all her growing and shrinking, Alice was exactly the same size as the rabbit. When the White Rabbit saw Alice, he spoke to her quite angrily.
Alice猜測他是在找剛才掉的手套和扇子,但是她也不知道掉哪裡去了。經歷過身體的變化以後,Alice現在看起來跟這隻兔子一樣大。白兔看到Alice時,生氣地對她嚷。
白兔
Mary Ann! What are you doing out here? Run home this minute and get me a pair of gloves and a fan! Quickly!
MaryAnn!你在那幹什麼呢?趕快回家給我準備一雙手套和一把扇子!快點!
Alice
How surprised he'll be when he finds out I'm not Mary Ann!
我不是Mary Ann,當他明白以後會很驚訝吧!
講述者
Alice began to run, as the White Rabbit had told her, although she didn't quite know where she should run to.But soon, a little house appeared with the words 'W. Rabbit' written on the door.
雖然有點不明所以,Alice還是按照兔子說的話跑走了,但她也不知道要跑去那裡。不久,她看到了一棟小房子,門上寫著“W. Rabbit”。
Alice
I won't knock on the door. The real Mary Ann might hear me.
我不敢敲門,我怕真正的Mary Ann在裡面。

Alice crept into the house and went quietly upstairs to a little bedroom… and there she found two fans, three pairs of gloves and…
Alice爬進了屋子,輕輕地走進樓上的臥室裡…她發現了兩把扇子,三雙手套,和…
Alice
Another bottle! I hope it makes me grow bigger again. I'm tired of being such a tiny little thing!
一個瓶子!我希望喝了它能夠讓我再次變大。我很不喜歡這個小小的身體!

…and sure enough, Alice began to grow. Taller and taller she grew, until…
喝完以後,Alice開始長大,越來越高,直到…
Alice
Ouch! My head! That's quite tall enough. That's tall enough! O-o-o-oh…
哎唷!我的頭!這下我長得足夠高了,足夠高了!噢噢噢!
講述者
Alice tried her hardest to stop growing - but it seemed to her like the harder she tried, the taller she grew.Soon Alice was so big that she filled the whole room. Her head pressed against the ceiling, her arm went out of the window and one of her feet went up the chimney.
Alice試圖停止生長,但是她越是阻止,越是繼續長高。不一會兒,Alice就高得充滿了整個房間,她的頭頂著天花板,胳膊從窗戶伸到了外邊,她的其中一條腿從煙囪裡伸了出去。
Alice
What will become of me now?
我要變成什麼樣子了啊?

Outside the house, a crowd started to gather. Alice heard voices.
屋外,聚集了一群人圍觀,Alice聽到了七嘴八舌的聲音。

不一會兒,白兔回來了。
白兔
What's that in the window?
窗戶裡面是什麼?
人群
It's an arm, sir!
是一條胳膊,先生!
白兔
An arm? Well, it's got no business being there! Bill! Bill! Fetch the ladder and take it away!
一條胳膊?好吧,這簡直毫無道理啊!Bill!Bill!去搬條梯子!上去把它拿下來!
講述者
Bill was the gardener. He brought a ladder and climbed up on to the roof.
Bill是他家的園丁,他搬來一條梯子,爬到了屋頂上。
白兔
I won't have an arm in my bedroom!Down you go Bill, down the chimney!

There! That's got rid of him! Now what will they try?
啊!是我踢到他的!這下他們會怎麼辦呢?
人群
Try the cakes!
試試吃那塊蛋糕!
白兔
Yes! The cakes: bring the cakes!We'll need a lot of them. That's right. Now, everybody, throw them through the other window!
是的!吃蛋糕!快去拿蛋糕!越多越好,把蛋糕從窗戶扔進去!
Alice
What's this…? Oh! Lots and lots of little cakes. I wonder… If I ate them, would I shrink again?They must do something… and I must get out of this house. I'll try just one of them to start with.
這是?哦!這麼多小蛋糕!如果…我吃了它們的話,會不會再次縮小呢?他們肯定會找我算賬,我必須趕緊離開這間屋子,我先試著吃一個吧!
講述者
Alice ate one of the little cakes,and soon found herself to be a little smaller. She ate another and another,until at last she was just the right size to run out of the bedroom… and out of the house.
Alice吃了一塊小蛋糕,過一會兒她發現自己變小了一點,於是她吃了一塊又一塊,直到身體變小到可以離開這間屋子,於是她跑到外面。
人群
There she is! What is it? Get her!Catch her, quickly!
她在那呢!快!快去抓住她!
講述者
But Alice was too fast for them. She ran far away from the White Rabbit's house, deeper and deeper into the forest until she became quite lost. She was wondering what she could eat or drink to make her grow to the right size again, when suddenly she saw in front of her a large mushroom - about the same size as herself, with a large blue caterpillar sitting on top of it, smoking a pipe and taking no notice of Alice at all. Will the caterpillar help Alice to grow again? I'll tell you next time.
Alice跑得很快,根本沒人能追得上她,她跑得離白兔的房子遠遠的,跑進了一片森林,她在裡面越走越深,直到最後迷了路。她想要變回原來的身體大小,但她不知道應該怎麼辦。突然,她看到面前有一隻大蘑菇,大小和她差不多,一隻藍色的大毛毛蟲坐在上面,抽著菸斗,根本沒有注意到Alice 。
這隻毛毛蟲會幫助Alice變回去嗎?我們下週接著講。
