2021年高考(全国I&II卷)英语听力独白Hello,everyone. Today I'll talk about how to improve your pronunciation.大家好。今天我将谈谈如何提高发音。Language researchers say pronunciation and fluency are the biggest barriers, followed by grammar, in effective spoken English.语言研究人员称,发音和流利程度是英语口语中最大的障碍,其次是语法。However,most people don't regard pronunciation as a very important part of communication skills.然而,大多数人并不认为发音是沟通技巧的重要组成部分。They're more focused on vocabulary. One reason is that most people are not even aware of their mispronunciations.他们更关注词汇。原因之一是,大多数人甚至没有意识到自己的发音错误。So it's important to first find out the words you mispronounce.所以首先找出发错音的单词很重要。You should listen to experts, by experts, I mean those who are less likely to make pronunciation mistakes.你应该听专家的建议,我指的专家是那些不太可能犯发音错误的人。When listening to them, pay attention to words that sound strange, strange because you pronounce the same words differently.听单词发音的时候,要注意那些听起来发音奇怪的单词,因为相同的单词发音不同。When you come across such words, check a dictionary to confirm their exact pronunciations.当遇到这样的单词时,查一查字典确认它们的准确发音。The last suggestion is to read aloud. Now you've got the correct pronunciations of the words, it's time to practice reading them every day.最后一项建议是大声朗读。现在你已经知道了单词的正确发音,是时候每天练习朗读了。
The Wizard of Oz by Frank Baum原文Chapter Six: East West, Home's Best 'Leave the dog and come quickly,' shouted the Wizard, 'The ropes going to break.'Dorothy picked Toto up and ran.'Wait!'she shouted.But before she got there, the rope did break.And the balloon went up, up, up into the sky.They heard the old man's voice very far away, 'Ask the witch of the south…'Then the balloon disappeared, and nobody saw the Wizard of Oz again.Dorothy began to cry, 'Oh, how can I get home now?''Put on the magic black hat,' said the Scarecrow, 'And ask the magic monkeys for help. Perhaps they can find the Witch of the South and bring her here.''Clever scarecrow,' said Dorothy.She put on the magic hat and called for the magic monkeys.When they arrived, she said, 'Please find the Witch of the South and bring her hereto the Emerald city.'And five minutes later, a beautiful woman with long red hair arrived.'I am Glinda, the Witch of the South,' she said, 'What can I do for you, my child?''I want to go home to Kansas,' said Dorothy, 'Please can you help me?'Ask your shoes,' smiled the good witch.But Dorothy did not understand.'Your red shoes,' said Glinda, 'Our magic shoes, they can carry you home. Just close your eyes and say, “East, West, Homes Best”, then jump.''Oh, thank you.' cried Dorothy happily.She kissed her friends and said, 'good bye again.'Then she picked up Toto and closed her eyes.'East West, Homes Best,' she said, and jumped.There was a noise like a wind, and suddenly Dorothy was in the sky.The red shoes fell off her feet, and she never saw them again.When she opened her eyes, there she was back in Kansas, and there were Aunt Em and Uncle Henry in a field by a new little house.Dorothy cried, 'Aunt Em!'She ran and took Dorothy in her arms.'Oh,Dorothy, what happened to you and where did you come from?''From the country of Oz,' said Dorothy, 'But I'm home again now and I'm so happy.'翻译第六章:无论东西,家是最好“把狗留下,快点跟上来!”巫师喊道,“绳子就要断了。”多萝西抱起托托,飞快地跑了起来。“等等!”她大声喊道。但在她到达那里之前,绳子确实断了。而那气球便越升越高,直冲云霄。他们远远地听到了那位老人的声音:“去问问南方的女巫……”随后气球消失了,从此再也没有人见到奥兹巫师了。多萝西哭了起来:“哎呀,我现在怎么才能回家呢?”“戴上那顶神奇的黑色帽子吧,”稻草人说道,“然后向那些神奇的猴子们求助。也许它们能找到南方的女巫,并把她带到这里来。”“聪明的稻草人,”多萝西说道。她戴上那顶神奇的帽子,然后召唤出了那些神奇的猴子。当它们到达时,她说:“请找到南方的女巫,并把她带到翡翠城来。”五分钟后,一位长发披肩、头发是红色的美丽女子走了过来。“我是南地的女巫格琳达,”她说道,“孩子,我能为你做些什么呢?”“我想回堪萨斯老家去,”多萝西说道,“您能帮帮我吗?”“问问你的鞋子吧,”那位善良的女巫微笑着说。但多萝西并不明白。“你的那双红色的鞋子,”格琳达说道,“这是我们神奇的鞋子,它们能带你回家。只需闭上眼睛,念叨着‘无论东西,家是最好’,然后跳下去就行。”“哦,谢谢你。”多萝西高兴地喊道。她亲吻了她的朋友们,并说道:“再见啦。”然后她抱起托托,闭上了眼睛。“无论东西,家是最好。”她说道,然后纵身一跃。传来一阵像风声一样的声响,紧接着多萝西就出现在了空中。那双红色的鞋子从她的脚上掉了下来,从此她再也看不到它们了。当她睁开眼睛时,发现自己又回到了堪萨斯州。埃姆阿姨和亨利叔叔正站在一片田野里,旁边还有一座新建成的小房子。多萝西喊道:“埃姆阿姨!”她跑过去,将多萝西紧紧地拥入怀中。“哦,多萝西,你这是怎么了?你是从哪儿来的?”“来自奥兹国啊,”多萝西说道,“不过我现在已经回到了家乡,我真是太高兴了。”

The Wizard of Oz by Frank Baum原文Chapter Five: The Old Man from KansasThe little green man opened the door.He gave them all glasses.Then he took them through the city to the Wizard's house.There,in the long green room, the friends waited and waited and waited.After three hours, the Scarecrow said, 'I'm tired of waiting.'He called the green man, 'We want to see the Wizard now, or we're going to call the magic monkeys. Please tell the Wizard that.'The green man went away to speak to the Wizard through the door.The Wizard knew about the magic monkeys, and he was very afraid of them.So he said to the green man, 'These people can come and see me at nine o'clock tomorrow morning.'At nine o'clock, the green man took the friends to the Wizard's room.They went in and looked all round, but they could not see anybody.Then a voice said, 'I am the Wizard of Oz. Who are you and what do you want?''Where are you?' asked Dorothy.'Ah,I am everywhere, but you can't see me. Now, answer me. Who are you and what do you want?''You know us all,' said the scarecrow, 'You said to me, “help Dorothy to kill the Witch of the West, and you can have some brains.” Well, the Witch is dead. And now I want my brains.''And I want my heart,' said the Tin Man.'And I want to be brave,' said the Cowardly Lion.'And I want to go home to Kansas,' said Dorothy.'Is the witch truly dead?' asked the voice.'Yes,'said Dorothy, 'I threw a bucket of water over her, and she disappeared. ''Very well,' said the voice, 'Come again tomorrow. I must think about things first and…''No,'said the Tin Man, 'I want my heart now.''I'm not going to wait another minute,' said the Scarecrow.'And I'm going to eat you,' the Lion shouted very angrily.Toto was afraid, he jumped away from the Lion and hit a screen near the wall.The screen fell over, and behind it, the friends saw an old man with no hair.The Tin Man looked angry and picked up his axe.'Who are you?' he said.'Please don't hurt me,' said the old man in a quiet little voice, 'I'm the Wizard of Oz.''But the Wizard of Oz is a big head without body,' said Dorothy.'No,he's a beautiful woman,' said the Scarecrow.'You're wrong,' said the tin man, 'The Wizard of Oz is a big animal with two heads.''No,'said the lion, 'The Wizard is a ball of fire.''You're all wrong,' said the old man, 'I am the Wizard. Well, I'm not a true Wizard.Oh, I know a lot of tricks, but I don't know any true magic. You see, I'm from Kansas too. I went from town to town and did magic tricks, and I went up in a big balloon. The balloon was always on a rope. But one day something went wrong,the rope broke and the balloon blew away. For a long time, the wind carried my balloon across the sky. Then I came down here in the country of Oz. The people saw my balloon and said, “This man is a Wizard. He comes out of the sky.” They were afraid of me and wanted to work for me. So they built this city for me,and I called it the Emerald city. Well, emeralds are green, so I made green glasses for everybody. That's why everything in the city looks green.'The Scarecrow took off his glasses.'Oh,'he said, 'Now I understand the Emerald city isn't green. It just looks Green.''It's all a trick that's right,' said the old man, 'Well,all that happened many years ago. I never went out because I was afraid of the two bad witches. Now they are dead. Thanks to you, Dorothy. But I'm very sorry.I don't know any true magic, so I can't help you.''You're a very bad man,' said Dorothy.'No,my child, I am a very good man, but I am a very bad Wizard. That's true.''What about my brains?' said the Scarecrow.'You don't need brains. You understand things. You can think. you learn quickly. You are very clever.''I want brains,' said the Scarecrow.'Very well,' said the old man, ' I can give you some brains tomorrow morning.''What about my heart?' asked the Tin Man.'You don't need a heart,' said the old man, 'You laugh, you cry, you love, you feel sorry for people.'The Tin Man looked angry and picked up his axe.'All right, please don't hurt me,' said the old man, 'I can give you a heart tomorrow morning.''And I want to be brave,' said the Cowardly Lion.'But you are brave. You do a lot of brave things. No, no, don't eat me. Come here tomorrow morning. I'm going to make you brave.''What about Toto and me?' asked Dorothy.'We can go up in my balloon,' said the Wizard, 'The wind blew us here from Kansas.Perhaps it can blow us back to Kansas again.'The next morning, the friends came again to the Wizard's room.The old man was ready.He took a bottle with brains on it in big green letters and carefully opened the Scarecrow's head.'Don't move. I'm putting your brains in,' he said, 'There, now, you're the cleverest scarecrow in Oz.'The Scarecrow thanked him.Next,the Wizard gave the Tin Man a small red heart.'Wear this always.' he said.The Tin Man was very happy and thanked the Wizard again and again.Then the old man took a bottle with be brave on it.'Drink this,' he said to the Cowardly Lion.The Lion drank.'Yes, yes, I feel brave.' He shouted, 'Very, very brave. Thank you.'The wizard smiled at them.'You didn't need my magic.' he said, 'But you're all happy now and that's a good thing now.''Dorothy,'He said, 'Come and see my balloon. It's already I mended it last night.'They went out into the garden behind the Wizard's house.The balloon was very big.There was a small box under it, and the Wizard of Oz jumped into the box.'Come on, Dorothy,' he shouted, 'We're going to Kansas. Say good bye to dear friends.'Dorothy kissed the Scarecrow, the Lion and the Tin Man, and said 'Good bye.''Come on, Toto,' she said, 'We're going home to Kansas. We're going to see Aunt Em and Uncle Henry.'But just then, Toto saw a cat. He jumped out of Dorothy's arms and ran after it.'Toto!'called Dorothy, and she began to run after him.翻译第五章:来自堪萨斯的老人那个绿色的小人打开了门。他给他们每人发了眼镜。然后他带着他们穿过城市,来到了巫师的住所。在那里,在那间长长的绿色房间里,朋友们一直在等待着。三个小时后,稻草人说:“我已经等得不耐烦了。”他叫那个绿色的小人:“我们现在想见见巫师,否则我们就叫那些魔法猴子来了。请告诉巫师。”绿色的小人离开那里去通过门和巫师交谈。巫师知道有关那些魔法猴子的事,他非常害怕它们。所以他对绿色的小人说:“这些人明天早上九点可以来见我。”九点钟的时候,绿色的小人带着朋友们去了巫师的房间。他们进去后四处看了看,但什么也没看到。然后一个声音说道:“我是奥兹巫师。你们是谁?想要什么?”“你在哪里?”多萝西问道。“啊,我无处不在,但你们看不到我。现在,请回答我。你们是谁?想要什么?”“你们认识我们所有人,”稻草人说,“你对我说过,‘帮我杀死西方女巫,你就能得到一些头脑。’好了,女巫已经死了。现在我想要我的头脑。”“还有我想要我的心脏,”铁皮人说。“还有我想要勇敢起来。”胆小的狮子说道。“还有我想回堪萨斯州的家去。”多萝西说道。“那个女巫真的死了吗?”那个声音问道。“是的,”多萝西说,“我朝她身上泼了一桶水,她就消失了。”“那好吧,”那个声音说道,“明天再来吧。我得先考虑一下事情才行……”“不,”铁皮人说,“我现在就要我的心脏。”“我不打算再等一分钟了,”稻草人说道。“而且我要吃掉你。”狮子愤怒地大喊道。托托很害怕,他从狮子身边跳开,撞到了靠近墙边的一个屏风上。屏风倒下了,屏风后面,朋友们看到了一个没有头发的老人。铁皮人看起来很生气,拿起了他的斧头。“你是谁?”他问道。“请别伤害我,”老人用轻柔的声音小声说道,“我是奥兹巫师。”“但奥兹巫师是个没有身体的大脑袋,”多萝西说。“不,他是位美丽的女人,”稻草人说。“你错了,”铁皮人说,“奥兹巫师是个有两只脑袋的大动物。”“不,”狮子说,“巫师是个燃烧着的火球。”“你们都错了,”老人说,“我是巫师。嗯,我不是真正的巫师。我知道很多把戏,但我不知道任何真正的魔法。你瞧,我也来自堪萨斯州。我四处游历,表演魔术,还坐过一次大气球。那气球总是系在一根绳子上。但有一天出了问题,绳子断了,气球飞走了。很长一段时间里,风带着我的气球在天空中飘荡。然后我来到了奥兹国的这片土地上。人们看到了我的气球,说:“这个人是个巫师。他从天上降下来。”他们害怕我,想为我效力。于是他们为我建起了这座城市,我把它命名为翡翠城。嗯,翡翠是绿色的,所以我给每个人都做了绿色的眼镜。这就是为什么城里的所有东西看起来都是绿色的。”稻草人摘下了他的眼镜。“哦,”他说,“现在我明白了翡翠城并不是绿色的。它只是看起来是绿色的。”“这一切都是个骗局,没错。”老人说道。“嗯,这一切都发生在很多年前了。我因为害怕那两个邪恶的女巫而没有出去。现在她们已经死了。多亏了你,多萝西。但我非常抱歉。我并不知道任何真正的魔法,所以无法帮助你。”“你是个非常坏的人。”多萝西说道。“不,孩子,我是个非常好的人,但我是个非常糟糕的巫师。这是事实。”“那我的脑子呢?”稻草人问道。“你不需要聪明才智。你懂得很多东西。你能思考。你能快速学习。你非常聪明。”“我想要脑子。”稻草人说道。“好的,”老人说道,“明天早上我可以给你一些脑子。”“那我的心呢?”铁皮人问道。“你不需要一颗心。”老人说道,“你欢笑,你哭泣,你爱,你为他人感到难过。”铁皮人看起来很生气,拿起他的斧头。“好吧,请别伤害我。”老人说道,“明天早上我可以给你一颗心。”“我还想变得勇敢。”胆小的狮子说道。“但你已经很勇敢了。你做了很多勇敢的事。不,不,别吃掉我。明天早上到这儿来吧。我让你变得勇敢。”“托托和我怎么办?”多萝西问道。“我们可以坐我的气球上去。”巫师说道,“风把我们从堪萨斯吹到这里来了。也许它能再把我们吹回堪萨斯。”第二天早上,朋友们又来到巫师的房间。老人已经准备好了。他拿了一个标有“脑子”字样、用大大的绿色字体写着的瓶子,小心翼翼地打开稻草人的头。“别动。我要把你的脑子放进去。”他说,“好了,现在,你是奥兹国最聪明的稻草人了。”稻草人向他道谢。接下来,巫师给了铁皮人一颗小小的红色心形饰品。“永远佩戴着它吧。”他说道。铁皮人非常高兴,不断地向巫师表示感谢。然后,那位老人拿出一个刻有“勇敢”字样的瓶子。“喝下这个吧,”他对胆小的狮子说。狮子喝了下去。“是的,是的,我感觉勇敢了。”他喊道,“非常非常勇敢。谢谢你。”巫师对他们笑了笑。“你们不需要我的魔法。”他说,“但现在你们都很开心,这是件好事。”“多萝西,”他说,“来看看我的气球吧。昨晚我已经把它修补好了。”他们走进了巫师房子后面的花园。气球很大。下面有一个小盒子,奥兹巫师跳进了那个盒子里。“来吧,多萝西,”他喊道,“我们要去堪萨斯了。跟亲爱的朋友道别吧。”多萝西亲吻了稻草人、狮子和铁皮人,然后说:“再见。”“来吧,托托,”她说,“我们要回堪萨斯了。我们要去看艾米姨妈和亨利叔叔。”但就在这时,托托看到了一只猫。它从多萝西的怀里跳了出去,追着那只猫跑了。“托托!”多萝西喊道,然后她也开始追着它跑。

Now, a company called Imperfect Me is trying to change that situation.这些食物足够养活20亿人。现在,一家名为Imperfect Me的公司正试图改变这种状况。The company collects ugly fruits and vegetables from farmers and markets and sells them to local residents at a deep discount.该公司从农民和市场上收集卖相不佳的水果和蔬菜,然后以极低的价格卖给当地居民。It can be 30 to 50% of the regular price.

Project director Tony Brown explained that the green venture has three main aims.这个项目被称为“树城”。项目主管托尼·布朗解释说,这个绿色项目有三个主要目标。He said, One is to plant a tree for every man, woman, and child over the next decade.他说,一个是在未来十年为每一位男性、女性和孩子种一棵树。Next,we are very much focused on bringing existing woodland into management其次,我们非常注重将现有林地纳入管理,because it doesn't make any sense to plant new woodland if you can't manage what you've got already.因为如果无法管理已有的林地,那么种植新的林地就没有任何意义。Finally,we want to engage people a lot more in their natural environment that is implanting trees in managing areas.最后,我们想让人们更多地参与到自然环境中来,比如在管理区域种植树木。And in understanding more about the benefits that trees and woodlands bring to our society,为了进一步了解树木和林地给社会带来的效益,Mr.Brown further outlined the reasons for the recently launched environmental project.布朗先生进一步阐述了最近发起这项环保工程的原因。He said our city wants to be a world class region.他说,我们的城市要成为一个世界级的地区。We have a lot of fantastic economic development going on, but the natural environment needs to keep up with that.我们有很多惊人的经济发展,但自然环境也不能掉队。He believes the project will reconnect people with trees and the natural world, provide benefits to health and reduce stress.他相信,这个项目将使人们重新与树木和自然世界联系起来,对健康有益,也能减轻压力。He said "woodlands can do great things in terms of air pollution reduction and can help to protect against noise pollution.他说:“林地在减轻空气污染和防止噪音污染方面的作用十分显著。They can also help cities and towns reduce the urban heat island effect and flooding".还可以帮助城镇缓解城市热岛效应和洪水灾害。”
The Wizard of Oz by Frank Baum单词提示1.mended 修补原文Chapter Four: The Witch and The Monkeys The next morning, they left the Emerald city.The green man took away their glasses and told them the way to the Witch's house.'Everybody is afraid of the Witch of the West,' he said, 'So be careful.'The friends walked for a long time.The road was bad and there were no houses, no fields, no trees.Now the Witch of the West had a magic eye, and it could see everything.She saw the friends on the road, and she was angry.She put on her tall black hat and shouted, 'Monkeys come in a second.'Forty monkeys arrived at her tall house.'What do you want?' they asked.'There are three people, a dog and a lion on my road,' She said, 'Kill the people and the dog, but bring the lion here to my house. He can work for me.''At once,' said the monkeys, and away they went.They broke the Tin Man's arms and legs.They took all the straw out of the Scarecrow and threw his clothes up into a tall tree.Now they took the lion and carried him to a dark cellar under the Witch's house.But they could not hurt Dorothy and Toto because of the good witch's kiss.So the monkeys picked them up very carefully and carried them to the Witch's house.The witch saw the kiss on Dorothy's face and was afraid, but she did not tell Dorothy that.'You must work for me in my house,' She said to the child, 'All day and every day,and remember—— I am watching you all the time.'Now Dorothy did not know this, but the red shoes were magic.The Witch wanted those shoes very much, but Dorothy never took them off.She took them off when she washed, of course.But the Witch never went near water.She was very, very afraid of water.Then one morning, Dorothy's left shoe fell off.The Witch picked up the shoe at once.'This is my shoe now,' She shouted.'No,it isn't,' shouted Dorothy angrily, 'Give it back to me at once.''No.'said the Witch.And then she tried to take Dorothy's right shoe too.Dorothy loved her red shoes, and she was very angry.There was a bucket of water near the door.Dorothy picked up the bucket and threw the water at the Witch.The water hit her in the face, and she cried out, 'Help, help. The water is killing me. The water is…' And then she disappeared. There was only her tall black hat and a long black dress.Dorothy looked and looked, but the witch was not there.Dorothy picked up her red shoe and put it on the,'Now,how can I help my friends?' she said, 'can I call the magic monkeys?'She picked up the Witch's black hat and looked at it.'Perhaps I must wear this magic hat when I speak.'So she put the hat on and called magic monkeys come.The monkeys arrived in a second.'Please can you help my friends?' asked Dorothy.'Of course,' said the monkeys, 'We must always help the wearer of the magic black hat.'They broke open the dark cellar, and the cowardly lion came out.'Free at last!' he said, 'Thank you. 'Then the monkeys found the Scarecrow's clothes and put some new straw in them.The Scarecrow laughed and jumped.'Thank you.' He said.Next the monkeys mended the Tin Man and gave him a new oil can.He moved his arms and legs.'I feel wonderful,' He said, 'thank you.'Dorothy told her friends about the Witch and the water, and they were all very happy.Toto could not speak, but he jumped up and down very happily.'Now,'said Dorothy, 'We must go back to the Wizard of Oz. Magic monkeys, take us to the Emerald city.''Don't forget the magic black hat,' said the tin man.The monkeys Carried them up into the sky, and ten minutes later, the friends were once again at the big green door of the Emerald city.翻译第四章:女巫与猴子们第二天早上,他们离开了翡翠城。那个绿人拿走了他们的眼镜,并告诉他们去女巫家的路线。“大家都害怕西边的女巫,”他说,“所以要小心点。”朋友们走了很长一段路。道路状况很差,没有房屋,没有田地,也没有树木。现在女巫有一个魔法眼睛,能看穿一切。她看到了路上的朋友们,非常生气。她戴上她那顶高高的黑色帽子,喊道:“猴子们马上进来。”四十只猴子来到了她那高大的房子前。“你想要什么?”他们问道。“在我的路上有三个人、一只狗和一头狮子,”她说,“杀了这些人和狗,但把狮子带到我的房子里来。它可以为我工作。”“马上行动,”猴子们说,然后就走了。他们弄断了铁皮人的胳膊和腿。他们把稻草从稻草人身上拿走,把他的衣服扔到一棵高高的树上。现在他们把狮子带到了女巫房子下面的一个黑暗的地窖里。但由于善良女巫的吻,他们无法伤害多萝西和托托。所以猴子们小心翼翼地把他们抓起来,带到了女巫的房子里。女巫看到了多萝西脸上的吻,心里很害怕,但她没有告诉多萝西这件事。“你必须到我家里来干活,”她对这个孩子说,“全天每时每刻都要来,记住——我一直在看着你。”多萝西并不知道这一点,但那双红色的鞋子具有魔力。女巫非常想要那双鞋子,但多萝西从未脱下它们。当然,她洗脚的时候会脱下它们。但女巫从不靠近水。她对水非常非常害怕。然后有一天早上,多萝西的左鞋掉了下来。女巫立刻捡起了那双鞋。“现在这是我的鞋子了,”她大喊道。“不,这不是,”多萝西生气地喊道,“马上把它还给我。”“不。”女巫说。然后她试图拿走多萝西的右鞋。多萝西爱她的那双红色鞋子,她非常生气。门边有一个水桶。多萝西拿起水桶,把水泼向女巫。水溅到了她的脸上,她大喊道:“救命,救命。水会要了我的命。水……”然后她消失了,只剩下她那顶高高的黑色帽子和一条长长的黑色裙子。多萝西看了又看,但女巫不在那里。多萝西捡起她的红色鞋子,把它穿上了。“现在,我该如何帮助我的朋友们呢?”她说道,“我可以召唤那些魔法猴子吗?”她拿起女巫的黑色帽子,仔细端详起来。“或许我必须在说话时戴上这顶魔法帽子才行。”于是她戴上帽子,召唤了魔法猴子们前来。猴子们瞬间就到了。“请你们能帮帮我的朋友们吧?”多萝西问道。“当然可以,”猴子们说道,“我们必须永远帮助佩戴这顶魔法黑帽子的人。”他们打开了黑暗的地下室,胆小的狮子走了出来。“终于自由了!”他说,“谢谢。”然后猴子们找到了稻草人穿的衣服,并在里面加了些新的稻草。稻草人笑了,跳了起来。“谢谢。”他说。接下来,猴子们修理了铁皮人,并给他配了一个新的油罐。他动了动胳膊和腿。“我感觉好极了,”他说,“谢谢。”多萝西把女巫和水的事告诉了她的朋友们,他们都非常高兴。托托不能说话,但他高兴地跳来跳去。“现在,”多萝西说,“我们必须回到奥兹巫师那里。神奇的猴子们,带我们去翡翠城吧。”“别忘了那顶神奇的黑色帽子,”铁皮人说。猴子们把他们送上了天空,十分钟后,朋友们又回到了翡翠城那扇巨大的绿色门前。

The Wizard of Oz by Frank Baum原文Chapter Three: The Emerald City It was a long day.The yellow brick road went past fields and through trees,up hills and down hills.In the evening, they began to see small green houses.By sometimes, little people in green clothes came out and looked at the friends,but they did not come near them because they were afraid of the cowardly lion.'Everything here is green. Perhaps we're near the Emerald city,' said Dorothy, 'Toto and I are hungry. Let's stop at the next house.'A little woman opened the door.And Dorothy said, 'please can we stay the night in your house?'The little woman looked at the lion.And Dorothy said quickly, 'The lion is my friend and he never hurts anybody.''All right? ' the little woman said, 'You can all come in.'She put a wonderful dinner on the table.Dorothy and Toto ate a lot of it, and the lion ate some of it.But the Scarecrow and the Tin Man ate nothing.'Where are you all going?' asked the little woman.'To the Emerald city,' said Dorothy, 'We want to see the Wizard of Oz.''That'snot easy,' said the woman, 'The wizard never goes out of his house and nobody sees his face.''Is the wizard a man?' asked the Scarecrow.'Nobody knows,' said the woman, 'He is a wizard, so he can be a man or an animal or anything.''How strange!' said Dorothy, 'But we need his help, so we must see him.'The next day, they thanked the woman, left the house and began walking again.Soon they saw a beautiful city in front of them.It was the Emerald city.At last, the friends went up the yellow brick road to a big green door and stopped slowly.The door opened and a little man in green clothes stood there.'We want to see the wizard, please,' said Dorothy.'Nobody sees the wizard,' he said, 'He is a very good and very famous wizard, but nobody can see him.''We must see him,' said Dorothy, 'Please ask him!''All right,' said the green man, 'I can take you to his house, but first you must all put glasses on.'He opened a big box. In it were lots of glasses.'You must wear your glasses all the time,' he said, 'Everybody in the city must wear glasses. The Wizard says this.'So they all put on glasses.The green man put on some glasses too.And then he took them through the Emerald city.Everything in the city was green—— men, women, children, houses, shops, streets. The green man took them to a very big house, and they went into a long green room.'Wait here,' he said.After a short time, he came back.'You can see the Wizard,' he said, 'But you must go to him one by one. He wants to see the little girl first.'Then he went away and a green girl came in.She took Dorothy to a tall green door.'The Wizard is in there,' said the Green girl, 'He's waiting for you.'Dorothy went in.On a green chair was a very, very big head.There was no body, or arms, or legs—— only a head. Its mouth opened and the head said, 'I am Oz,who are you and what do you want?''I am Dorothy,' said the child bravely.'Where did you get those red shoes from?''The bad Witch of the East,' said Dorothy, 'My house fell on her and killed her.''What is that thing on your face?''A kiss. The good Witch of the North kissed me,' said Dorothy, 'I need help and she told me about you.'And what do you want?''I want to go home to Kansas,' answered Dorothy, 'But I don't know the way. Please help me to get home.The big eyes opened and closed, opened and closed.Then the mouth opened and the head spoke again.'Well,'it said, 'Perhaps I can help you, but first you must do something for me.''What do you want me to do?' asked Dorothy.'Kill the bad Witch of the West.''But I don't want to kill anybody,' said Dorothy.'You killed her sister and you are wearing her shoes. Go now and kill the Witch of the West.'The little girl began to cry.'But how can I kill the witch?' She said.The big eyes opened and looked at her, but the head did not answer.Dorothy went away, and then her friends went into the Wizard's room.First the Scarecrow, then the Tin Man, and last the Lion.Later,they all met in the long green room and talked.Dorothy told her friends about the head.'That's interesting,' said the Scarecrow, 'I didn't see a head. I saw a beautiful woman. I asked her for some brains and she said, “yes, but first you must help Dorothy to kill the Witch of the West.”''I saw a big animal with two heads,' said the Tin Man, 'I asked for a heart. The animal said, “I can give you a heart, but first you must help Dorothy to kill the witch of the west.” What did you see? Lion.''Oh,I saw a ball of fire.' said the cowardly lion. 'I said, “I am a coward, please make me brave.” And the fire said, “When the Witch of the West is dead, I can help you. But not before.”''I was angry then,' said the lion, 'But the ball of fire got bigger and bigger, so I ran away.''Oh,what are we going to do?' said Dorothy.'Well,'said the scarecrow, 'we must find the Witch of the West, and then we must kill her.'翻译第三章:翡翠城这一天过得十分漫长。黄色的砖路穿过田野,穿过树林,爬上山坡,又滑下山坡。傍晚时分,他们开始看到一些小小的绿色房屋。不一会儿,穿着绿色衣服的小个子人们走了出来,打量着朋友们,但他们没有靠近他们,因为他们害怕那只胆小的狮子。“这里的一切都是绿色的。也许我们离翡翠城不远了。”多萝西说,“我和托托饿了。咱们去下一家房子歇歇吧。”一个矮小的女人开了门。多萝西说:“请让我们在您家过夜好吗?”那个矮小的女人看了看狮子。多萝西急忙说道:“狮子是我的朋友,他从不伤害任何人。”“行吗?”那个矮小的女人说,“你们都可以进来。”她把一顿丰盛的晚餐放在了桌上。多萝西和托托吃了很多,狮子也吃了一些。但稻草人和铁皮人什么也没吃。“你们要去哪儿?”那个矮小的女人问道。“去翡翠城。”多萝西说,“我们想去见奥兹巫师。”“那可不容易。”那个女人说,“巫师从不走出他的房子,也没人能看到他的脸。”“巫师是个男人吗?”稻草人问道。“没人知道,”那位女士说道,“他是位巫师,所以他可以变成人、动物或者任何东西。”“这太奇怪了!”多萝西说道,“但我们需要他的帮助,所以我们必须见见他。”第二天,他们向那位女士道谢,离开了房子,再次踏上了前行的路。很快,他们就看到一座美丽的城市出现在眼前。那就是翡翠城。最后,朋友们沿着黄色的砖路走向一座巨大的绿色大门,缓缓停下。门开了,一个穿着绿色衣服的小个子男人站在那里。“我们想见见那位巫师,请问可以吗?”多萝西说道。“没人能见到那位巫师,”他说道,“他是位非常出色且非常有名的巫师,但没人能见到他。”“我们必须见见他,”多萝西说道,“请让他带我们去吧!”“好吧,”那个绿衣人说道,“我可以带你们去他家,但首先你们所有人都必须戴上眼镜。”他打开一个大箱子。里面有许多副眼镜。“你们必须一直戴着眼镜,”他说,“城里所有人都必须戴眼镜。巫师这么说的。”于是他们都戴上了眼镜。那个绿衣人也戴上了眼镜。然后他带着他们穿过了翡翠城。城里的所有事物都是绿色的——男人、女人、孩子、房屋、商店、街道。那个绿人带他们来到一座非常大的房子前,然后他们走进了一个长长的绿色房间。“在这儿等着吧。”他说。过了一会儿,他回来了。“你可以见到巫师了,”他说,“但你们必须一个一个地去见他。他想先见到那个小女孩。”然后他离开了,一个绿衣女孩走了进来。她带着多萝西来到一扇高高的绿色门前。“巫师在里面,”绿衣女孩说,“他在等你。”多萝西走了进去。在一张绿色的椅子上有一个非常非常大的脑袋。没有身体、胳膊或腿——只有一个脑袋。它的嘴巴张开,脑袋说道:“我是奥兹,你是谁?想要什么?”“我是多萝西,”孩子勇敢地说。“你从哪儿得到那些红色鞋子的?”“东方的恶女巫,”多萝西说,“我的房子压倒了她并杀了她。”“你脸上的那个东西是什么?”“一个吻。北方的好女巫亲了我,”多萝西说,“我需要帮助,她告诉了我关于你的消息。”“那你想要什么?”“我想回堪萨斯去,”多萝西回答,“但我不知道路。请帮我回家吧。”那双大眼睛睁了又闭,闭了又开。然后嘴巴张开,脑袋再次说话了。“好吧,”它说道,“或许我能帮到你,但首先你得为我做一件事。”“你想要我做什么?”多萝西问道。“杀死西边的那个邪恶女巫。”“但我不想杀任何人啊。”多萝西说道。“你杀了她姐姐,而且你还穿着她的鞋子。现在赶紧去杀死西边的那个女巫吧。”小女孩开始哭泣起来。“但我怎么才能杀死那个女巫呢?”她说。那双大眼睛睁开了,看向她,但脑袋却没有回应。多萝西离开了,随后她的朋友们走进了巫师的房间。先是稻草人,然后是铁皮人,最后是狮子。后来,他们都来到了那间长长的绿色房间里交谈。多萝西向她的朋友们讲述了那个脑袋的事。“那很有趣,”稻草人说,“我没有看到一个脑袋。我看到的是一位美丽的女子。我向她要了一些头脑,她说:‘可以,但首先你必须帮助多萝西杀死西方女巫。’”“我看到一只有两只脑袋的大型动物,”铁皮人说,“我想要一颗心。那只动物说:‘我可以给你一颗心,但首先你必须帮助多萝西杀死西方女巫。’你看到了什么?狮子。”“哦,我看到一个火球。”胆小的狮子说,“我说:‘我是个胆小鬼,请让我勇敢起来。’然后那火球说:‘等西方女巫死了之后,我可以帮助你。但在此之前不行。’”“我当时很生气,”狮子说,“但那个火球变得越来越大,所以我跑开了。”“哦,我们该怎么办?”多萝西说。“嗯,”稻草人说,“我们必须找到西方女巫,然后我们必须杀死她。”

'You can speak!''Of course I can speak,' said the Scarecrow, 'But I can't move, up here on this pole. I'd like to get down, can you help me?'Carefully,Dorothy took the Scarecrow off his pole.'Thank you very much,' said the Scarecrow.He moved his arms and legs, and straw went everywhere.'Who are you?', he asked, 'And where are you going? ''I'm Dorothy, and I'm going to the Emerald City. I want to go home to Kansas, but I don't know the way. I'm going to ask the Wizard of Oz for help. ''Where is the Emerald City?', asked the Scarecrow, 'And who is the Wizard of Oz? I don't know anything, you see, because I have no brains in my head— only straw.''Oh dear!', said Dorothy, 'I'm very sorry.''I would very much like to have some brains,' the Scarecrow said, 'Can I go to the Emerald City with you? Perhaps the Wizard of Oz can give me some brains. What do you think?''I don't know,' said Dorothy, 'But yes, please come with me. He's a famous wizard,so perhaps he can help you.'She felt very sorry for the Scarecrow.'Don't be afraid of Toto,' she said, 'He never hurts people.''Nothing can hurt me,' said the Scarecrow, 'I'm not afraid of anything. Well, that's not true. I am afraid of fire, of course.'Dorothy walked along the road with her new friend.Soon she began to feel hungry, so she sat down and she and Toto ate some bread and apples.'Would you like some, Scarecrow?' said Dorothy.'No,thank you,' said the Scarecrow.'I don't need to eat or drink. You can't eat when you're made of straw...Now, tell me about your home. 'So Dorothy told him about Kansas, and Uncle Henry and Aunt Em, and the cyclone.'But why do you want to leave this beautiful country?' asked the Scarecrow, 'Kansas,you say, has no trees, no green hills, no gardens. I don't understand.''That's because you have no brains,' said Dorothy, 'Kansas is my home. We say, “East,west, home's best”, and it's true. I want to go home.'They walked along the road for some hours, and then it got dark.Dorothy was tired, and soon the Scarecrow saw a little house behind some trees.There was nobody there, so they went in.Dorothy and Toto slept, but the Scarecrow just stood all night with his eyes open.'Scarecrows don't sleep,' he said.In the morning, Dorothy looked for water.'Why do you want water?' asked the Scarecrow.'Toto and I are thirsty. And I need to wash.''I'm sorry for you,' said the Scarecrow, 'You need a lot of things! But you have brains, and you can think, and that's wonderful.'They found some water, and Dorothy washed.Then she and Toto ate some bread.Suddenly,they heard a shout from the trees near the house, and they all ran out of the house to look.They saw a man by a big tree, with an axe in his hand.He was made of tin.He stood very still and shouted 'Help!' again and again.'What can I do for you?' asked Dorothy.'I can't move,' said the Tin Man, 'Please oil me. There's an oil-can in my house.'At once, Dorothy ran back to the house and found the oil-can.Then she came back, and with the Scarecrow's help, she carefully oiled the Tin Man.Slowly,he began to move, first his head, and then his arms and legs.'Thank you,' he said. 'I feel better now.'He put down his axe.'I went out in the rain, you see, and water is very bad for a tin body. I was there for a long time, and nobody came to help me.''We stopped at your house for the night,' Dorothy said, 'and we heard your shout this morning.''Where are you going?' asked the Tin Man.So Dorothy told him about the Wizard of Oz.'I want to go back to Kansas, and the Scarecrow wants some brains,' she said.The Tin Man was very interested.'Can the Wizard give me a heart, do you think? I have no heart, so I can't love, or feel... I would very much like to have a heart.''Come with us,' said the Scarecrow.'Yes,' said Dorothy, 'And then you can ask the Wizard for help, too.'So they all walked along the yellow brick road.There were many tall trees next to the road, and sometimes the three friends heard noises from animals behind the trees.Dorothy did not like these noises very much.'How far is it to the Emerald City?' she asked the Tin Man, 'Do you know?''It's a long way, I think,' said the Tin Man, 'And we must be careful because—'But just then, a big lion suddenly ran out from the trees, into the road.It opened its mouth— it had long yellow teeth— and began to run after Toto.Dorothy was afraid for Toto.She ran up to the lion and hit it on the nose with her bag.'Don't hurt my dog!' she cried angrily, 'He's smaller than you!''I didn't hurt him,' said the Lion, 'Don't hit me again— please!''Why—you're afraid!' said Dorothy, 'Be quiet,Toto, he isn't going to hurt you. He's more afraid than you are. He's just a big coward.’'It's true,' said the Lion, 'I am a coward.Everyone thinks lions are brave. I make a lot of noise, but I'm not brave. I'm just a coward.'And the Cowardly Lion began to cry.Then Dorothy told him about the Wizard of Oz.'Come with us to the Emerald City,' she said, 'I want to go back to Kansas, the Scarecrow wants some brains, and the Tin Man wants a heart. Perhaps the Wizard of Oz can make you brave.''Oh,thank you!' said the Lion, 'I would very much like to be brave.'And so the Cowardly Lion came with them.At first, Toto was afraid of him, but very soon he and the Lion were good friends.That night, Dorothy and Toto slept under a big tree, next to the Cowardly Lion's big warm body.In the morning, they ate the last of their bread.'Oh dear!' said Dorothy, 'What are we going to eat for dinner?''I can kill an animal for you,' said the Cowardly Lion.'Oh no— please don't kill anything!' the Tin Man said.He began to cry, 'We don't want to hurt any animals. I haven't got a heart, but Ifeel sorry for them.'Dorothy quickly got out the oil-can and oiled his face.'Don't cry,' she said, 'You know water is bad for you.'They walked along the yellow road, and after an hour or two, they came to a big river.'Oh no!' said Dorothy, 'How can we get across?'The Lion looked down at the river.'I'm very afraid of falling,' he said, 'but I think I can jump across.''Good!'said the Scarecrow at once, 'You can carry us on your back, one at a time.'So the Cowardly Lion jumped across the river, first with the Scarecrow on his back, then with Dorothy and Toto, and last with the Tin Man.But soon they came to a second river.This one was very big, and the Lion could not jump across it.The Scarecrow thought for a minute.'Look,'he said, 'There's a tall tree next to the river. The Tin Man can cut it down with his axe. And when the tree falls across the river, we can walk across the tree.''Very good,' said the Lion, 'For somebody with straw in their head, and not brains.'So the Tin Man cut down the tree with his axe, and soon they were all across that river, too.翻译第二章:黄砖路多萝西和托托沿着黄色的砖路走了很长一段距离。当他们感到疲惫时,便在路边的一片田野里停下来休息。不远处有一个稻草人,多萝西和托托走过去去看他。“你好啊,”稻草人说道。“哦!”多萝西说道,“你居然能说话啊!”“当然我能说话,”稻草人说道,“但我在这根杆子上动不了了。我想下来,你能帮我吗?”多萝西小心翼翼地把稻草人从杆子上取了下来。“非常感谢你,”稻草人说道。他动了动自己的胳膊和腿,稻草四处乱飞。“你是谁?”他问道,“你要去哪里?”“我是多萝西,我要去翡翠城。我想回堪萨斯老家,但我不知道路。我要去向奥兹巫师求助。”“翡翠城在哪里?”稻草人问道,“奥兹巫师是谁?你知道的,因为我脑袋里没有脑子——只有稻草。”“哎呀!”多萝西说道,“我很抱歉。”“我非常希望能有一些脑子,”稻草人说道,“我能和你一起去翡翠城吗?也许奥兹巫师能给我一些脑子。你觉得怎么样?”“我不知道,”多萝西说道,“不过,好吧,请跟我来吧。他可是个著名的巫师,或许他能帮到你。”她为稻草人感到非常难过。“别害怕托托,”她说,“他从不伤害人。”“没有什么能伤害到我,”稻草人说道,“我什么都不怕。嗯,这不完全是真的。我当然害怕火。”多萝西和她的新朋友一起沿着道路前行。很快她就开始感到饿了,于是她坐了下来,和托托一起吃了些面包和苹果。“稻草人,你想吃点吗?”多萝西说道。“不用了,谢谢,”稻草人说道。“我不需要吃或者喝。当你是稻草做成的时候,是不能吃东西的……现在,告诉我一些关于你家乡的事”多萝西向他讲述了她的家乡——堪萨斯州,还有亨利叔叔和埃姆婶婶,以及那场龙卷风。“可你为什么要离开这个美丽的国度呢?”稻草人问道,“你说的堪萨斯没有树木、没有绿色的山丘、没有花园。我不明白。”“那是因为你没有头脑,”多萝西说道,“堪萨斯是我的家乡。我们常说‘无论东西,家才是最好的’,这是真的。我想回家。”他们沿着道路走了几个小时,然后天色暗了下来。多萝西累了,很快稻草人看到一些树后面有一座小房子。那里没有人,于是他们走了进去。多萝西和托托睡着了,但稻草人整晚都睁着眼睛站着。“稻草人是不会睡觉的。”他说。早上,多萝西去找水。“你为什么需要水?”稻草人问道。“我和托托都渴了。而且我还需要洗一洗。”“我很为你感到难过。”稻草人说。“你需要很多东西!但你有头脑,能思考,这真是太好了。”他们找到了一些水,多萝西洗了洗。然后她和托托吃了些面包。突然,他们听到房子附近树林里传来一声喊叫,于是他们都跑出房子去看。他们看到一个男人站在一棵大树旁,手里拿着一把斧子。他是用锡做成的。他一动不动地站着,一遍又一遍地喊着“救命!”“我能为你做些什么?”多萝西问道。“我动不了了。”铁皮人说,“请给我抹点油。我家里有个油罐。”立刻,多萝西跑回房子,找到了那个油罐。然后她回来了,在稻草人的帮助下,她小心翼翼地给铁皮人抹上了油。慢慢地,他开始动了,先是他的头,然后是他的胳膊和腿。“谢谢你。”他说。“现在我感觉好多了。”他放下斧子。“我是在雨中出去的,你知道的,而雨水对铁质的身体来说可是非常有害的。我在那里待了很长时间,却没有人来帮我。”“我们昨晚就在你家过夜的,”多萝西说,“今天早上我们听到你发出了呼救声。”“你要去哪里?”“铁皮人问道。于是多萝西便向他讲述了奥兹巫师的事。“我想回堪萨斯州去,而稻草人想要一些头脑,”她说。铁皮人非常感兴趣。“你觉得巫师能给我一颗心吗?我没有心,所以无法爱,也无法感受……我非常渴望拥有一颗心。”“跟我们走吧,”稻草人说。“好啊,”多萝西说,“然后你们也能向巫师寻求帮助。”于是他们一起沿着黄色的砖路前行。路旁有许多高大的树木,有时这三位朋友会听到树后动物发出的声音。多萝西不太喜欢这些声音。“去翡翠城还有多远?”她问铁皮人,“你知道吗?”“我觉得很远,”铁皮人说,“而且我们必须小心,因为——”但就在这时,一只大狮子突然从树丛中冲了出来,跑到了路上。它张开嘴巴——它有着长长的黄色牙齿——然后开始追赶托托。多萝西为托托感到害怕。她跑到狮子面前,用她的包打它的鼻子。“别伤害我的狗!”她生气地喊道,“它比你小多了!”“我没有伤害它,”狮子说,“别再打了——求求你了!”“为什么——你害怕了!”多萝西说道,“安静点,托托,他不会伤害你的。他比你还要害怕。他只不过是个胆小鬼罢了。”“确实如此,”狮子说道,“我就是个胆小鬼。大家都认为狮子很勇敢。我总是大声吼叫,但我其实并不勇敢。我只是个胆小鬼罢了。”于是,胆小的狮子开始哭泣起来。接着,多萝西向他讲述了奥兹巫师的事。“跟我们一起去翡翠城吧,”她说,“我想回堪萨斯州去,稻草人需要一些头脑,铁皮人需要一颗心。也许奥兹巫师能让你变得勇敢。”“哦,谢谢你!”狮子说道,“我非常希望能变得勇敢。”于是,胆小的狮子就跟他们一起去了。起初,托托害怕他,但很快他就和狮子成了好朋友。那天晚上,多萝西和托托睡在一棵大树下,紧挨着胆小的狮子那温暖的大身躯。第二天早上,他们吃完了最后一点面包。“哎呀!”多萝西说道,“晚餐吃什么呀?”“我可以为你杀一只动物。”胆小的狮子说道。“哦,不——请别杀任何动物!”铁皮人说道。他开始哭泣,“我们不想伤害任何动物。我并没有心脏,但我还是为他们感到难过。”多萝西迅速拿出油罐,给他的脸抹上油。“别哭了,”她说,“你知道水对你是有害的。”他们沿着黄色的道路前行,过了一个小时左右,他们来到了一条大河旁。“哦,不!”多萝西说道,“我们怎么才能过河呢?”狮子低头看着这条河。“我非常害怕掉下去,”他说,“但我认为我能跳过去。”“好啊!”稻草人立刻说道,“你可以背着我们,一次一个。”于是,胆小的狮子先跳过了河,背上是稻草人,接着是多萝西和托托,最后是铁皮人。但很快他们又来到了第二条河旁。这条河非常大,狮子无法跳过去。稻草人思考了一会儿。“看,”他说,“河旁边有一棵高大的树。铁皮人可以用他的斧子把它砍倒。当树横在河上时,我们就可以从树上走过去。”“很好,”狮子说道,“对于脑袋里只有稻草而没有头脑的人来说,这真是个好主意。”于是铁皮人用他的斧子砍倒了那棵树,很快他们也都过了那条河。
