兰登《STEP into READING》第3级 Gulliver in Lilliput 译文分享
Hello. My name is Gulliver.
I am from England. But I have traveled to many strange and wonderful lands.
I used to be a doctor on a sailing ship. It was a good life, but it was full of danger.
大家好，我的名字是Gulliver（格列佛）
我来自英国，但我曾经游览过许多不一般的土地
我曾是一艘船上的一名医生，作为船医的生活还不错，不过十分危险
One terrible day, there was a great storm at sea.
The wind howled. The waves crashed. Our ship was smashed to pieces.
I swam and swam until my arms were as limp as noodles.
Finally, I reached land. I fell asleep right here.
有一天，海上刮起了巨大的风暴
风在咆哮，波涛汹涌，我们的船成了碎片
我奋力地游啊游，直到我的胳膊变得和面条一样软弱无力
最后，我终于触到了陆地，我累得睡着了
When I woke up, I could not move my arms or legs. I was tied to the ground by many, many pieces of string.
Who could have done such a thing?
我醒来的时候，发现自己的手脚都动不了了。我被很多很多小绳子绑在地上
这是谁干的呢？
I felt something moving up my leg. It moved up to my belly.
Could it be a bird? A rat?
No! It was a tiny man no bigger than my hand. I thought I must be dreaming.
我感觉有什么东西正沿着我的腿向上爬，它爬到了我的肚子上
是一只鸟吗？还是一只老鼠？
都不是！那是一个小人，比我的手大不了多少。我一定是在做梦
When I woke up again, I was on a platform with wheels. it was being pulled by fifteen hundred tiny horses.
The little people brought me to an old temple. They chained me to the wall with ninety-one tiny chains. I could not get free!
我再次醒来的时候，发现自己在一辆有轮子的平板车上。一千五百头小马正拉着车
小人们把我带到了一座旧寺庙，他们用了91条锁链把我锁在了墙上。我挣脱不了，我被困住了！
他们在我的两腿间游行
taught me their language. They told me that their land was called Lilliput.
But they still would not set me free. I had to agree to help them. I had to help whenever they asked.
他们甚至教我说他们的语言。他们告诉我他们住的这片土地叫做Lilliput（利立浦特）
但他们还是不愿放了我，我得答应帮助他们，不管什么时候，只要他们需要帮助，我就得出现
