(1)Perhaps you have read about Robinson Grusoe. Many children like to hear and read about this man who lived alone for years on an island far out in the ocean. His ship was driven on the rocks in a storm and all the other men on board were drowned. He alone reached the island. It is a long story and tells of the many brave and clever things he did as he lived with his family of animals. When he first swam to the island, he did not know what he would find in this strange place. Here is part of his story.
也许你读过《鲁宾逊漂流记》。许多孩子喜欢听和读关于这个人在遥远的海洋岛屿上独自生活了多年的故事。他的船在一场风暴中触礁，船上其他人都淹死了，他独自一人到了岛上。这个故事很长，讲述了他和他的动物家庭一起生活时所做的许多勇敢而聪明的事。当他第一次游到岛上时，他不知道在这个陌生的地方会发现什么。这是他的故事的一部分。
(2)"What should I do? I was very wet and had no change of clothes. I was hungry and thirsty and did not know where to turn to find anything to eat or drink. Were there any wild animals on the island? Would they attack me?
“我该怎么办？我全身湿透，没有衣服换。我又饥又渴，不知道去哪里找吃喝。岛上有野生动物吗？它们会袭击我吗？”？
(3)"Night was coming on and I had to look for a place to sleep. I stood there thinking and thinking; I did not know what to do.
“夜幕降临，我不得不找一个睡觉的地方。我站在那里想来想去，不知道该怎么办。
(4)"After a while I made up my mind to do as the birds do. I would sleep in a tree. I looked around and found a tree with strong, heavy branches in which I felt sure I could rest in comfort without danger of falling.
“过了一会儿，我决定要像鸟儿那样睡在树上。我环顾四周，发现了一棵枝繁叶茂的树，我相信自己可以在树上舒适地休息，不会有摔倒的危险。”。
(5)"I had no gun, but I had my knife with me, and with it I cut a thick stick. I wanted to be able to drive off any animal. Then I climbed the tree, and as I was very tired , I fell asleep and did not wake up till the sun was high in the sky. "
“我没有枪，但我随身带着刀，用刀砍下了一根粗树枝，我想可以用来驱赶动物。然后我爬上了树，我太累了，一直睡到日上三竿。”
