Thrilled with his new treasures—especially the green object—WALL · E finally returned home at the end of a long day of work. He had just reached for the lever to open his truck when a dot of red light appeared at his feet. WALL · E stopped. He stared at the dot, then slowly reached down to touch it. The dot raced away along the ground. WALL · E scurried after it. The dot led him into the vast dry bay. WALL · E was so taken by the one red dot that he didn’t notice the many other dots coming at him from all sides. The little laser lights formed a circle around him.
WALL · E heard a low roar in the sky. He looked up and saw what seemed like three hot suns coming in his direction! The roar grew louder and louder. Terrified, WALL · E felt the ground shaking. Columns of fire dropped from above and surrounded him on three sides.
WALL · E furiously started to dig a hole in the ground. He jumped into it just as an intense burst of fire scorched the earth.
As suddenly as the roar had started, things quieted down. WALL · E slowly raised his head and peeked out of his hole. Something very big was looming over him. He climbed out of the hole and banged his head on a metal object.
It was the underside of some sort of spacecraft!
With nowhere to hide, WALL · E made the best of what was available. He placed a small rock on his head, boxed himself up, and hoped he wouldn’t be noticed. WALL · E wasn’t used to visitors, so he wasn’t sure what to expect. But his curiosity quickly began to get the better of him. He wanted to be able to see what was coming even while he remained hidden. Cautiously, WALL · E crept a bit closer to get a better look.
The spacecraft deposited a capsule on the ground. The capsule began to unfold, its exterior peeling away in sections. It was as if something precious were being unwrapped.
Then he saw her emerge—a sleek egg-shaped white probe-bot with gleaming blue eyes. WALL · E was breathless as he watched her hover gracefully above the ground. She was the most beautiful thing he had ever seen.
Her name was EVE.
工作了漫長(zhǎng)的一天之后,瓦力終于在日暮時(shí)分回家了。他對(duì)于他的新寶貝們——特別是那個(gè)綠色物品——感到很激動(dòng)。在他剛伸出手去夠拉桿打開(kāi)貨車(chē)時(shí),一個(gè)圓形的紅色光點(diǎn)出現(xiàn)在了他的腳上。瓦力不動(dòng)了。他盯著紅點(diǎn)看,然后慢慢地彎下腰伸手去摸它。紅點(diǎn)在地面上快速移開(kāi)。瓦力匆匆追著它跑。紅點(diǎn)引著他進(jìn)入廣闊的干涸海灣。瓦力全神貫注地看著這一個(gè)紅點(diǎn),沒(méi)有注意到許多其他紅點(diǎn)從四面八方向他靠近。這些激光小點(diǎn)在他周?chē)纬闪艘粋€(gè)圈。
瓦力聽(tīng)到空中傳來(lái)低沉的轟鳴聲。他抬頭望去,看見(jiàn)像三個(gè)火熱太陽(yáng)的東西朝著他的方向撲來(lái)!轟鳴聲越來(lái)越響。瓦力害怕了,他感到地面在晃動(dòng)。空中落下一道道火柱,從三個(gè)方向包圍了他。
瓦力開(kāi)始拼命在地上挖坑。他剛跳進(jìn)去,一陣烈焰就將地面燒焦了。
轟鳴聲出現(xiàn)得很突然,但靜止得同樣突然。瓦力慢慢地抬起頭,從他藏身的坑里探出頭來(lái)看。一個(gè)龐然大物矗立在他的頭上。他從坑里爬出來(lái),頭撞上了一個(gè)金屬物體。
這是某種太空飛船的底部!
瓦力無(wú)處藏身,只能盡力而為。他頭頂著一塊小石頭,縮成一個(gè)盒子的形狀,希望自己不會(huì)被發(fā)現(xiàn)。瓦力不曾有過(guò)訪客,所以他不知道會(huì)發(fā)生什么。但他的好奇心很快占了上風(fēng)。他希望能夠在繼續(xù)隱身的同時(shí)看見(jiàn)發(fā)生了什么。瓦力小心翼翼地爬得離飛船近了一點(diǎn)以看得更清楚。
這艘太空飛船將一個(gè)太空艙放在地面上。太空艙開(kāi)始打開(kāi),它的外殼分成幾片向外攤開(kāi),就好像珍寶的包裝被打開(kāi)一樣。
然后他看見(jiàn)她出現(xiàn)了。她是一個(gè)造型優(yōu)美的白色蛋形探測(cè)機(jī)器人,有著明亮的藍(lán)色眼睛。瓦力看著她姿態(tài)優(yōu)雅地懸停在空中,不由得屏住了呼吸。她是他所見(jiàn)過(guò)的最美麗的事物。
她的名字叫作伊芙。
