LESSON 18 The dog with the lantern

第十八課 狗和燈籠

Here is a dog with a lantern in his mouth.

這兒有一條狗，他的嘴里有一個燈籠。

He is seeking for his master.

他在找他的主人。

Carlo, for that was the name of the dog, had been taught to be useful. The roads, in the place where his master lived, were often so bad that, on dark nights, it was not safe for any person to go out without a light.

Carlo，這是這條狗的名字，他已經(jīng)被訓(xùn)練得很有用了。他主人居住的那條路很糟糕，以致于在黑暗的夜里，人們出去時沒有燈光是很不安全的。

So Carlo's master taught him to carry a lantern for him at night; and he did it as steadily as any boy could have done.

所以Carlo的主人訓(xùn)練Carlo晚上為他拎一個燈籠；Carlo做的像任何一個男孩都可以做到的那樣好。

Carlo never trotted too far before, but kept near at hand, so that the bright light of the lantern might guide his master's steps.

Carlo從來不會走在主人前面太遠(yuǎn)，而是保持在附近，以使燈籠的強(qiáng)光可以指引主人的腳步。

When he came to any part of the road where there was a deep rut or hole, he would turn round to his master, as much as to say, Take care; there is a hole here.

當(dāng)他碰到路面上有很深的凹槽或洞穴的地方時，他會轉(zhuǎn)向他的主人，等于說：“當(dāng)心，這里有個洞。”

The dog's master lived about a mile from the town; and when he could not get home before dark, Carlo used to be sent to him with the lantern.

這條狗的主人住在離小鎮(zhèn)一英里的地方；當(dāng)他天黑前不能回家時，Carl叼著燈籠常常被送去他身邊。

Come, Carlo, go for master! was the order; and it never had to be given twice. Carlo knew where to go, quite as well as he knew the road which his master would take.

“去吧，Carlo，去主人那兒！”是命令；它從不需要給出兩次。Carlo知道要去哪兒，好像他知道主人會走哪條路。

But Carlo did not always at once find his master. When he got to the town, he would run off to a house where he knew his master often was. Still holding his lantern, he would scratch at the street-door and bark; as much as to say, Here am I, master—lantern as well; are you ready for home?

但是Carlo并不是總會馬上找到它的主人。當(dāng)他到達(dá)鎮(zhèn)上時，他就會跑去主人經(jīng)常在的那個房子那兒。他會叼著燈籠，抓撓外門，叫喚，等于說：“主人，我在這兒，燈籠也在；你準(zhǔn)備好回家了嗎？”

Some one would perhaps come to the door and say. Your master is not here, Carlo. Carlo would growl, as if he meant to say, Then he is somewhere else, and I must find him.

有人可能會去門口，說：“Carlo，你的主人不在這兒?！盋arlo會咆哮，好像他想說：“他一定在別的地方，我一定要找到他?！?/p>

He would then run off to one house after another, until he found his master; when the two set off together for home.

然后他會跑去一個又一個的房子那兒，直到他找到主人，兩個一起出發(fā)回家。
