旁白 neutral

When she saw the pirates preparing the plank, she was filled with hate

旁白 neutral

She hated Hook and she hated the pirates

她恨胡克，也恨那些海盗。

旁白 neutral

Boys might think pirates exciting, but Wendy did not

男孩们也许觉得海盗很刺激，但温蒂不这么想。

旁白 neutral

She especially hated that the ship had not been cleaned for years

她尤其讨厌这艘船已经多年没有打扫过。

旁白 neutral

Not one window was without a layer of grime

没有一扇窗户不蒙着一层污垢。

旁白 neutral

In fact, while she was below, she wrote " Dirty Pig " on a window with her finger

旁白 neutral

She also hated that it was nighttime and no one was in bed

她也讨厌现在明明是夜晚，却没有人躺在床上。

旁白 neutral

But when the boys gathered around her, all these thoughts melted away

但当男孩们聚到她身边时，所有这些想法都烟消云散了。

旁白 neutral

" So, my beauty," said Hook," soon you will see your children walk the plank."

“那么，我的美人，”虎克说，“很快你就会看到你的孩子们走跳板了。”

旁白 neutral

Hook's lace collar was dirty, and when he saw Wendy staring, he tried to hide it

虎克的蕾丝领子脏了，当他发现温蒂在盯着看时，他试图遮掩。

旁白 neutral

" Are the children going to die?" she asked scornfully

“孩子们会死吗？”她轻蔑地问道。

旁白 neutral

Her voice made it clear how she despised Hook for his plan

她的语气清楚地表明，她多么鄙视虎克的这个计划。

旁白 neutral

" They are!" he shouted." Silence! Listen to a mother's last words to her children."

“他们会的！”他喊道。“安静！听听一位母亲对孩子们的临终遗言吧。”

Wendy stood tall and faced everyone proudly

旁白 neutral

" These are my last words, dear boys," she said

旁白 neutral

" I feel that your real mothers would say this:

“我觉得你们真正的母亲会说：

旁白 neutral

We hope our sons die like gentlemen."

我们希望我们的儿子们像绅士一样死去。”

旁白 neutral

Hook shuddered. Even the pirates were awed, for Wendy's words were the kind that inspired bravery

虎克打了个寒颤。连海盗们都肃然起敬，因为温蒂的话是那种能激发勇气的话语。

旁白 neutral

Tootles cried out," I am going to do what my mother wishes

嘟嘟大声喊道：“我要做我妈妈希望我做的事。”

旁白 neutral

What are you going to do, Slightly?"

你打算做什么，斯莱特利？”

旁白 neutral

" What my mother wishes," said Slightly." What are you going to do, Nibs?"

“我妈妈希望我做的，”斯莱特利说。“你打算做什么，尼布斯？”

Nibs answered the same way, and so did the other boys until Hook interrupted

尼布斯也这么回答，其他男孩也一样，直到虎克打断了他们。

旁白 neutral

" Tie her up to the mast!" he shouted cruelly

“把她绑到桅杆上！”他凶狠地喊道。

It was Smee who tied Wendy

是斯密去绑的温蒂。

旁白 neutral

Under his breath, he whispered," I'll save you if you promise to be my mother."

他压低声音悄悄说：“如果你答应做我的妈妈，我就救你。”

旁白 neutral

But this was a promise Wendy could never make to a pirate

但温蒂永远不可能对一个海盗许下这样的承诺。

旁白 neutral

The boys' eyes had drifted from Wendy to the plank, and their faces went white. They were not ready to die

男孩们的目光从温蒂转移到了跳板上，脸色变得苍白。他们还没准备好去死。

旁白 neutral

Their walk down the narrow board and over the end into the cold sea would be the last walk they would ever take

走过这块窄木板，从尽头掉进冰冷的海水里，将是他们此生最后的一段路。

旁白 neutral

They shivered and stared, no longer sure they could walk the plank as gentlemen

他们瑟瑟发抖，面面相觑，不再确定自己是否能像个绅士一样走跳板。

旁白 neutral

They were, after all, only little boys

他们毕竟只是些小男孩。

旁白 neutral

Hook smiled and took a step toward Wendy

虎克笑了笑，朝温蒂走近了一步。

旁白 neutral

He wanted to turn her face to make her watch the boys walk the plank

他想把她的脸转过来，让她看着男孩们走跳板。

旁白 neutral

He wanted to hear her cries of terror and regret

旁白 neutral

Instead, what he heard filled his own heart with terror

然而，他听到的声音却让自己心里充满了恐惧。

旁白 neutral

It was the tick-tock of the crocodile

那是鳄鱼的滴答声。

旁白 neutral

They all heard it — Hook, the other pirates, the boys, and Wendy

他们都听到了——虎克、其他海盗、男孩们，还有温蒂。

旁白 neutral

Instantly, they all looked — but not at the water where the sound was coming from

他们立刻都看了过去——但看的不是声音传来的水面。

旁白 neutral

All their eyes were fixed on Captain Hook

所有的眼睛都盯着虎克船长。

旁白 neutral

The crocodile, Hook knew, had only one victim in mind — him!

虎克知道，那条鳄鱼只有一个目标——他！

旁白 neutral

He fell to the floor, trembling in a heap

他瘫倒在地，缩成一团，浑身发抖。

旁白 neutral

The ticking grew louder, as if the crocodile were getting closer

滴答声越来越响，仿佛鳄鱼正越来越近。

旁白 neutral

Hook crawled on his knees to the other side of the ship, away from the boys and Wendy

虎克用膝盖爬到船的另一边，远离男孩们和温蒂。

旁白 neutral

The awful sound was getting even louder

那可怕的声音变得更响了。

旁白 neutral

All Hook could imagine was the terrible crocodile climbing aboard his ship

虎克满脑子想的都是那条可怕的鳄鱼爬上他的船。

旁白 neutral

" Hide me!" Hook cried, but his men stepped back to clear the way

“把我藏起来！”虎克喊道，但他的手下都退后让开了路。

旁白 neutral

They had always been loyal to their captain, but none of them would stand between him and his fate

他们一直对船长忠心耿耿，但没有一个人会挡在他和他的宿命之间。

旁白 neutral

On the other side of the deck, the boys leaned over the side of the ship to see the crocodile climb in

在甲板的另一边，男孩们探出船边，想看看鳄鱼爬上来。

旁白 neutral

But to their surprise, it was not the crocodile coming to their rescue

但令他们惊讶的是，来救他们的不是鳄鱼。

旁白 neutral

It was Peter! He made a sign for them to keep silent. Then he went on ticking

是彼得！他打了个手势让他们保持安静。然后他继续发出滴答声。
