《黑骏马》第11章 告别老友(3)（在线收听）

I was very sad．I put my nose against hers but could find nothing to say that would cheer her up．

我非常难过。我把鼻子贴着她的鼻子，可不知道说什么才能让她振作起来。

I think she was pleased to see me，because she said，Youre the only friend I ever had．

我想她见到我很高兴，因为她说：你是我曾有过的唯一的朋友。

A few weeks after this，a cart with a dead horse in it passed by our cab stand．

几个星期以后，一辆拉着一匹死马的车从我们的车站旁经过。

It was a brown horse with a long thin neck，and I believe it was Ginger．I hoped it was，because then her troubles would be over．

那是一匹棕色的马，有着又瘦又长的脖子，我相信那是金儿。我希望如此，因为那样她的一切苦难就都结束了。

There was one day when we were very busy．First a fat gentle-man with a large bag wanted to go to Bishopsgate Station；

有一天我们非常忙。先是一个带大包的胖先生想去比少普盖特火车站；

then we were called by a lady who wanted to be taken to Regents Park；then a man jumped into the cab and called out，Bow Street Police Station， quick！

然后一位太太要我们拉她去雷根特公园；再后是一个人跳上车喊道：波街警察局。快点！

After another journey or two，we came back to the cab stand and Jerry gave me some food，saying.

又跑了一两趟后，我们回到车站，杰利喂了我一些食物，说：

We must eat when we can on days like this，Jack．And he took out the meat and bread Polly had given him．

当我们这样工作时，我们必须得抽空就吃东西，杰克。说着他掏出波莉给他的肉和面包来吃。

But neither of us had eaten many mouthfuls before a poor young woman came along the street．She was carrying a child and she looked lost and worried．

我们俩都还没吃上几口，一个可怜的年轻女人就沿街道走过来了。她抱着一个小孩，看上去不知所措，忧心忡忡。
