Chapter One: A Stormy Night

Reina de Los Angeles is a Spanish village in southern California.

In the village, there is a military presidio with Spanish soldiers and their horses.

There is also a Spanish church called a mission.

The Spanish friars live here.

All around the village, there are big homes with patios.

Tonight, there is a terrible storm and it is raining.

Inside the village tavern, there are soldiers and other men.

They are eating and drinking.

Sergeant Pedro Gonzales is at the tavern.

He is a big, strong man.

"What a horrible night! It always rains in February. Where is Zorro on this stormy night?" asks one soldier.

"Zorro! Don't say that name! He is a bandit and a criminal," says Sergeant Gonzales.

"He is the terror of southern California," says another soldier.

"People say that he takes from the rich and gives to the poor. He is a friend of the natives and the friars. He punishes dishonest people," says an old man.

"Ha!Zorro is a big mystery. Who is he? Where is he from? He wears a black mask and no one can see his face. He travels on the El Camino Real on his fast horse. He is very good with his sword," says the Sergeant.

"Yes,and he leaves his mark - the Z -everywhere," says the old man.

"No one can stop him. The Governor of California offers a big reward for the capture of Zorro," says one soldier.

At that moment, a man enters the tavern.

He is young and handsome.

He has black hair and dark eyes.

He has fine clothes.

"Don Diego Vega, my friend!" says Sergeant Gonzales. "Your clothes are wet. Why are you out on this rainy night?"

Don Diego smiles and says, "I am going home, but I am cold and wet. I want something to drink."

"Come and stand near the fire," says the Sergeant. "Here is a glass of wine."

"Thank you, my friend," says Don Diego.

"We are talking about Zorro. Everyone is scared of him, but I am not! I am ready to fight Zorro and win! I am a champion with the sword. What do you think, Don Diego?" asks the Sergeant.

"Everyone talks about this mysterious man with a mask. Many people say good things about him," says Don Diego.

"I want to fight him and capture him! I want the big reward," says Sergeant Gonzales.

"No,no! Don't talk about fighting. I hate fighting and I hate violence. I think Zorro is sincere. He punishes only bad people. He protects the poor, the natives and the friars. Let Zorro do his work," says Don Diego.

"You are a kind man. You like music and poetry. You don't understand, my friend. You are rich and noble," says the Sergeant.

Don Diego smiles and says, "It's 6 p.m. I must return to my hacienda. Goodnight everyone."

He opens the tavern door and goes out into the rain.

第一章：暴风雨之夜

雷纳洛杉矶是加利福尼亚南部的一个西班牙村庄。
村子里有一个军事要塞，里面有西班牙士兵和他们的马匹。
这里还有一座西班牙教堂，叫做传教会。
西班牙修士住在这里。
村子周围都是带露台的大房子。
今晚，有一场可怕的暴风雨，正在下雨。
在村里的酒馆里，有士兵和其他男人。
他们又吃又喝。
佩德罗·冈萨雷斯中士在酒馆。
他是一个高大强壮的人。
“多么可怕的夜晚！二月总是下雨。在这个暴风雨的夜晚佐罗在哪里？”一个士兵问道。
“佐罗!不要说那个名字！他是一个强盗和罪犯，”冈萨雷斯警官说。
“他是南加州的恐怖分子，”另一名士兵说。
“人们说他拿富人的钱给穷人。他是当地人和修士的朋友。他惩罚不诚实的人，”一位老人说。
“哈!佐罗是一个很大的谜团。他是谁？他是哪里人？他戴着一个黑色的面具，没有人能看到他的脸。他骑着快马在埃尔卡米诺公路上旅行。他的剑术很好，”警官说。
“是的，他的记号——Z——到处都是，”老人说。
“没人能阻止他。加州州长悬赏捉拿佐罗，”一名士兵说。
就在这时，一个男人走进酒馆。
他年轻英俊。
他有黑头发和黑眼睛。
他有漂亮的衣服。
“唐·迭戈·维加，我的朋友！”冈萨雷斯警官说。“你的衣服湿了。你为什么在这个雨夜出来？”
唐·迭戈笑着说：“我要回家了，但是我又冷又湿。我想喝点什么。”
“过来站在火旁边，”警官说。“这是一杯酒。”
“谢谢你，我的朋友，”唐·迭戈说。
“我们在谈论佐罗。每个人都怕他，但我不怕！我已经准备好和佐罗战斗并取得胜利！我是拿剑的冠军。你觉得呢，唐·迭戈？”警官问。
“每个人都在谈论这个戴着面具的神秘人。很多人都说他的好话，”唐·迭戈说。
“我要和他战斗，抓住他！”我想要大赏金，”冈萨雷斯警官说。
“不,不!不要谈论打架。我讨厌打架，讨厌暴力。我认为佐罗是真诚的。他只惩罚坏人。他保护穷人，当地人和修士。让佐罗做他的工作，”唐·迭戈说。
“你是个善良的人。你喜欢音乐和诗歌。你不明白，我的朋友。你既富有又高贵。”警官说。
唐·迭戈笑着说：“现在是下午6点。我得回我的庄园了。大家晚安。”
他打开酒馆的门，走到雨中。

这是一张照片。

In the foreground, there is a house built into the side of a bare hill.

在照片的前景，有一座屋子，屋子建在一座光秃秃的小山的侧面。

The house is actually cut out of the rock, and the front is painted white.

屋子实际上是从岩石中凿出来的，它的前面被刷成了白色。

There is a single window with a pink curtain across it and a wooden door.

屋子有一扇拉着粉色窗帘的窗户和一扇木门。

This rock house is clearly inhabited because in front of the house, there is washing hanging on a washing line in what looks like the front yard.

这座石屋明显有人居住，因为在屋前一块看起来像是前庭的地方有一根晾衣绳，上面挂着洗好的衣服。

Then,above the painted front of the house, they've built a chimney.

然后，在屋子粉刷一侧的上方，他们建了一个烟囱。

It's quite possible that at the back of this same hill there's another door - or the front of another house, perhaps.

很有可能在这座山的背面有另一扇门——或者说可能是另一座屋子的前侧。

At the side of the house, to the left, there's a flat area.

在屋子的一侧——左侧，有一块平地。

They've got chairs there and one person appears to be serving food.

那儿有椅子，一个人看上去正在上菜。

He is wearing casual summer clothes.

他穿着随意的夏日装束。

Further to the left is another chimney, which probably belongs to a different house.

再往左是另一个烟囱，这个烟囱或许是另一户人家的。

In the background of the picture, a long way from this particular bare hill,there's another hill.

在照片的背景，在离这座荒山很远的地方，有另一座山。

Then,in between, there's a relatively flat plain.

然后，在两山之间，有一片相对平坦的平原。

And then there's a small town.

那里还有一座小镇。

It looks like a town because there are a lot of white houses and each one is quite close to the next building.

它看上去像是一座小镇，因为那儿有许许多多的白屋子，屋子与屋子之间靠得很近。

This must be a hot country because the sky is blue and there isn't much vegetation.

这一定是个炎热的国家，因为天空很蓝，而且没有太多的植被。

I should think that rock houses are actually really cool and pleasant to live in.

或许石屋很凉快，住起来很舒服。

CHAPTER SIX: The Jolly Roger

There is a yellow moon in the night sky.

The folly Roger is in the bay near Kidd's Creek.

The children are on the pirate ship.

They are prisoners of Captain Hook and his cruel pirates.

Captain Hook looks at them and says, 'This time it's Peter Pan or me! You idiots! Peter Pan can't save you now.'

Hook laughs and then calls Smee.

'Smee, get the plank ready!'

'Yes sir!' says Smee.

'Now listen to me,' says Hook. 'You must all walk the plank!'

'Walk the plank?' asks John.

'Yes!First you walk the plank and then you fall into the sea with the crocodile. It will eat you! Ha, ha!' laughs Hook.

'But I can save two of you. I want two young pirates. Who wants to be a pirate?'

The Lost Boys look at John.

John looks at Michael and says, 'The life of a pirate is exciting. I don't want to walk the plank. I don't want to be food for the crocodile. Let's be pirates!'

Michael looks at his brother.

Then they look at Wendy.

She doesn't like their idea.

Captain Hook laughs and moves his hook in front of their faces.

'Do you want to be pirates, yes or no?' he asks.

John and Michael say, 'Never!'

Captain Hook is angry and says, 'Then you must walk the plank and die!'

Wendy is afraid.

She loves her brothers and the Lost Boys.

She has tears in her eyes.

The boys stand near the plank and Wendy watches them.

A pirate asks, 'Who is the first to walk the plank?'

At that moment there is a loud noise. 'Tick! Tock! Tick! Tock!'

Captain Hook's face is white.

He says, 'The crocodile is here. He wants ME!'

He runs to his cabin and hides there.

'Who is the first to walk the plank?' asks a pirate. 'Come on! Let's go! The crocodile is hungry.'

Suddenly Peter Pan appears on the pirate ship.

Tinker Bell follows him.

Wendy and the boys cheer.

They are very happy to see their young hero.

Hook and his pirates are furious.

Hook takes his sword and says, 'I want to fight you, Pan! Tonight you will die!'

Hook fights with his long sword and with his hook.

Peter fights courageously.

He pushes Hook to the back of the ship.

It is a terrible fight.

John,Michael and the Lost Boys fight the pirates.

After a long fight they throw the pirates into the sea.

Peter and Hook move all around the big ship.

Theirs words make a loud noise.

Suddenly Peter takes Hook's sword and pushes him into the sea!

Hook shouts, 'OH, NO!'

He falls into the sea and into the mouth of the hungry crocodile.

'Oh,Peter, we are proud of you!' says Wendy.

She kisses him on the cheek.

The boys cheer.

Peters miles and says, 'The Jolly Roger is ours now. Let's go home!'

第六章：快乐罗吉号

夜空中有一轮黄色的月亮。
快乐罗吉号在基德溪附近的海湾里。
孩子们在海盗船上。
他们是胡克船长和他残忍海盗们的俘虏。
胡克船长看着他们说：“这次不是彼得·潘就是我！白痴!彼得·潘现在救不了你了。”
胡克笑了，然后叫斯密。
“斯密，把木板准备好！”
“是的,先生!”斯密说。
“现在听我说，”胡克说。“你们都必须走跳板！”
“走跳板？”约翰问。
“是的!你先走跳板，然后和鳄鱼一起掉进海里。它会吃掉你的！哈哈!”胡克笑着说。
“但我能救你们两个。我要两个小海盗。谁想当海盗？”
迷路的男孩们看着约翰。
约翰看着迈克尔说：“海盗的生活很刺激。我不想走跳板。我不想成为鳄鱼的食物。让我们当海盗吧！”
迈克尔看着他的弟弟。
然后他们看着温迪。
她不喜欢他们的想法。
胡克船长笑着在他们面前挥动钩子。
“你想不想当海盗，是还是不是？”他问。
约翰和迈克尔说：“决不！”
胡克船长生气地说：“那你就必须走下木板去死！”
温迪很害怕。
她爱她的兄弟和迷失的男孩。
她眼里含着泪水。
男孩们站在木板附近，温迪看着他们。
一个海盗问：“谁是第一个走上木板的？”
就在这时，有一声巨响。“滴答！滴答！”
胡克船长脸色苍白。
他说：“鳄鱼来了。他要找我！”
他跑回他的小屋，躲在那里。
“谁是第一个走跳板的人？”一个海盗问。“来吧!我们走吧!鳄鱼饿了。”
突然，彼得·潘出现在海盗船上。
叮叮铃跟着他。
温迪和男孩们欢呼起来。
他们很高兴看到他们的小英雄。
胡克和他的海盗们非常愤怒。
胡克拿起他的剑说：“我想和你决斗，潘！今晚你会死的！”
胡克用他的长剑和钩子战斗。
彼得勇敢地战斗。
他把胡克推到船尾。
这是一场可怕的战斗。
约翰、迈克尔和迷失的男孩们与海盗作战。
经过长时间的战斗，他们把海盗扔进了海里。
彼得和虎克在大船周围走来走去。
他们的剑发出巨大的响声。
突然，彼得拿起胡克的剑，把他推到海里！
胡克喊道：“哦，不！”
他掉进了海里，掉进了饥饿的鳄鱼嘴里。
“哦，彼得，我们为你感到骄傲！”温迪说。
她吻了他的脸颊。
男孩们欢呼起来。
彼得笑着说：“快乐罗吉号现在是我们的了。”我们回家吧！”
