0:12 My name is Huckleberry Finn. If you've read a book called The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, you already know about me 我叫哈克贝利·费恩。如果你读过一本叫《汤姆·索亚历险记》的书，那你已经知道我的事了。
0:21 But if you haven't, it doesn't matter 但如果你没读过，那也没关系。
0:24 At the end of that book, my friend Tom and I found six thousand dollars, and each of us was allowed to keep half 在那本书的结尾，我的朋友汤姆和我找到了六千美元，我们每个人可以留一半。
0:33 Judge Thatcher invested the money for us, so Tom and I would never have to worry about not having enough money again 撒切尔法官帮我们投资了这笔钱，这样汤姆和我再也不用担心没钱花了。
0:45 I didn't have a home, so the Widow Douglas took me in 我没有家，所以道格拉斯寡妇收留了我。
0:50 She said she was going to civilize me 她说她要教我做个体面人。
0:53 She made me wear new clean clothes, and sit at the table to eat my meals 她让我穿崭新的干净衣服，还要坐在桌子前吃饭。
1:00 But I missed the way I used to live, wearing my old rags and fixing my own supper 但我还是很怀念以前的日子，穿着破旧的衣服，自己弄晚饭吃。
1:06 The widow had a sister, Miss Watson, who was determined to teach me to spell. I couldn't help wiggling around 寡妇有个妹妹，沃森小姐，她铁了心要教我拼写。我忍不住扭来扭去。
1:16 " Huckleberry, sit up straight!" she scolded me." Why can't you try to behave?" “哈克贝利，坐直了！”她训斥我，“你为什么就不能试着规矩点？”
1:22 All I could think about was how I wanted to get away 我满脑子只想着如何离开这里。
1:26 I needed a change, but I knew the widow and her sister would never understand, so I didn't try to explain 我需要改变，但我知道寡妇和她姐姐永远不会理解，所以我没有试着去解释。
1:37 By the time I went up to my room for bed, I felt sad and lonesome 等上楼回到房间睡觉时，我感到悲伤又孤独。
1:43 I sat in a chair by the window and looked out at the night 我坐在窗边的椅子上，望着窗外的夜色。
1:47 I heard an owl hooting and a dog howling 我听到猫头鹰在叫，狗在嚎。
1:51 It sounded to me as if they were mourning for someone who had died 在我听来，它们好像在为一个死去的人哀悼。
1:56 It scared me, and I started to tremble 这吓到了我，我开始发抖。
2:00 Then a spider crawled up on my shoulder, and when I shook it off, it fell into my candle and burned up 接着一只蜘蛛爬到我肩上，我把它甩掉时，它掉进了蜡烛火里，烧死了。
2:09 I knew that killing a spider could bring me very bad luck, so to keep the bad luck away, I turned myself around three times while crossing my chest 我知道打死蜘蛛会带来厄运，为了驱除霉运，我一边在胸前划十字，一边原地转了三圈。
2:19 But I still felt afraid, and I trembled even harder 但我还是感到害怕，抖得更厉害了。
2:25 I sat there a long time until I calmed down 我坐在那里很久，直到平静下来。
2:29 Finally, I heard the clock in the town of St. Petersburg strike 12 times 终于，我听到圣彼得堡镇的钟声敲了十二下。
2:36 It was midnight. A twig snapped out in the darkness, and then I heard a little " Me-yow, me-yow," down in the yard 午夜了。黑暗中传来树枝折断的声音，然后我听到院子底下传来轻轻的“喵——喵——”声。
2:47 " Me-yow," I called back softly. Then I climbed out the window, onto the shed, and down to the ground 我也轻轻地回了一声“喵——”。然后我爬出窗户，上了棚顶，再下到地面。
2:56 And sure enough, there was Tom waiting for me 果然，汤姆在那里等我。
3:01 Tom and I tiptoed through the widow's garden 我和汤姆踮着脚尖穿过寡妇的花园。
3:05 As we passed the kitchen, I tripped over a root 我们经过厨房时，我被一根树根绊倒了。
3:09 Jim, Miss Watson's black slave, was sitting by the kitchen door when he heard the noise 沃森小姐的黑奴吉姆正坐在厨房门边，这时他听到了动静。
3:15 " Who's that?" he called out “谁呀？”他喊道。
3:18 Then he came out into the garden and stood right between us 然后他走进花园，正好站在我们中间。
3:23 Tom and I stood completely still. Jim couldn't see us in the dark 我和汤姆一动不动地站着。黑暗中，吉姆看不见我们。
3:29 " I know I heard something," Jim said." I'm going to sit down here and listen until I hear that sound again." “我肯定听到了什么动静，”吉姆说，“我就坐在这儿听着，直到再听到那个声音为止。”
3:38 Well, first my ankle and my ear started to itch, and then my nose 结果，先是我的脚踝和耳朵开始痒，接着鼻子也痒了起来。
3:44 I felt as if I'd die if I couldn't scratch, but if I did, Jim would know we were there 我觉得要是不挠一下就快死了，可一挠，吉姆就知道我们在这儿了。
3:52 Just when I couldn't stand it any more, we heard Jim snoring. He had fallen asleep! 就在我再也忍不住的时候，我们听到了吉姆的鼾声。他睡着了！
3:59 Before we left, Tom played a trick on Jim 离开前，汤姆对吉姆搞了个恶作剧。
4:03 He crept over to Jim, took off his hat, and hung it on a branch 他悄悄爬到吉姆身边，摘下他的帽子，挂在了一根树枝上。
4:09 Tom said that Jim would think witches had moved his hat 汤姆说，吉姆会以为是女巫挪走了他的帽子。
4:16 Tom and I went into town where Ben Rogers, Joe Harper, and two or three other boys were waiting for us 我和汤姆进了城，本·罗杰斯、乔·哈珀，还有两三个男孩儿正等着我们。
4:24 We rowed a boat about four kilometers down the Mississippi River, and came ashore 我们划船沿密西西比河往下游走了大约四公里，然后上了岸。
4:30 There Tom led us to his secret cave, which had an entrance hidden by bushes 在那儿，汤姆领我们去了他的秘密洞穴，入口被灌木丛遮住了。
4:38 We lit our candles and crawled through a long passageway on our hands and knees 我们点上蜡烛，手脚并用地爬过一条长长的通道。
4:46 When we reached the cave, it was damp and cold 到了洞穴里，感觉又潮湿又阴冷。
4:50 " We'll start a band of robbers called Tom Sawyer's Gang," Tom said “我们要成立一个强盗帮，就叫汤姆·索亚帮。”汤姆说。
4:55 " Everyone who wants to join must take an oath and write his name in blood." “想加入的人都必须起誓，并用血写下自己的名字。”
5:01 Everyone agreed. Tom got out a piece of paper and wrote down the oath 大家都同意了。汤姆拿出一张纸，写下了誓词。
5:07 It said that we had to promise to be loyal to the band and never tell its secrets. Anyone who told would be killed 誓词上说，我们必须保证忠于帮派，永不泄密。泄密者会被处死。
5:16 We all said it was a very good oath, and Tom said that he got the words for it from books about pirates and robbers 我们都说这誓词棒极了，汤姆说他这些词儿都是从关于海盗和强盗的书里看来的。
5:25 Then Ben said that he thought the families of the boys who told secrets should be killed too. So Tom added that to the oath 然后本说，他觉得泄密男孩的家人也该被杀掉。于是汤姆把这条加进了誓词。
5:34 Joe pointed out that I didn't have a family 乔指出，我没有家人。
5:38 Tom replied that I had a father, but the others objected that he'd disappeared a long time ago 汤姆回答说我有父亲，但其他人反对，说他早就消失不见了。
5:44 Finally, I said I was willing to give them Miss Watson to kill 最后，我说我愿意把华森小姐交给他们处置。
5:52 Everyone agreed to that. Then we all stuck our fingers with a pin, and made a mark on the paper with our blood 大家都同意了。然后我们都用别针刺破手指，用血在纸上画了押。
6:00 " Now," said Ben," What is our gang going to do?" “那么，”本说，“咱们帮打算做什么呢？”
6:04 " We're going to wear masks and stop carriages on the road," Tom explained “我们要戴上面具，在路上拦马车。”汤姆解释道。
6:10 " We'll kill the people and take their watches and money." “把人杀掉，拿走他们的手表和钱。”
6:15 It was getting very late, so we decided to meet again next week to decide which folks we would rob and kill. Then we all went home 天色很晚了，我们决定下周再碰头，商量要抢劫和杀掉哪些人。然后我们就都回家了。
6:24 By the time I climbed in my window at the widow's house it was almost dawn 等我爬进寡妇家窗户时，天都快亮了。
6:30 My new clothes were covered with dirt and I was very tired 我的新衣服上全是土，我也累坏了。
