You never exactly knew whether there would be a real meal or just a make-believe, it all depended upon Peter's whim:
不过,到底是真吃了饭,还是假装吃饭,我们也说不好,那全凭彼得的高兴了。
he could eat, really eat, if it was part of a game, but he could not stodge just to feel stodgy,which is what most children like better than anything else;
他也能吃,能真吃,如果这是游戏的一部分;可是,他不能为了填饱肚皮去吃,而别的孩子多半都喜欢这样做。
the next best thing being to talk about it.
其次,他还喜欢谈吃。
Make-believe was so real to him that during a meal of it you could see him getting rounder.
对于彼得,假装就等于是真的,他假装吃饭的时候,你就能看到他真的胖起来了。
Of course it was trying, but you simply had to follow his lead,
当然,对于别的孩子,假装吃饱是件苦事;不过,你必须照他的样子做。
and if you could prove to him that you were getting loose for your tree he let you stodge.
假如你能向他证明,树窟窿对你来说变得太松了,他就会让你饱餐一顿。
Wendy's favourite time for sewing and darning was after they had all gone to bed.
他们全都上床睡觉以后,才是温迪缝缝补补的好时光。
Then, as she expressed it, she had a breathing time for herself; and she occupied it in making new things for them,
据她说,只有到这时候,她才能喘一口气。她把这时间用来给他们做新衣,
and putting double pieces on the knees, for they were all most frightfully hard on their knees.
在膝盖的地方做成双层,因为他们全都在膝盖那儿磨损得厉害。
When she sat down to a basketful of their stockings, every heel with a hole in it,
温迪坐下来守着一篮子的袜子,每双袜子后跟都有一个洞。
she would fling up her arms and exclaim, "Oh dear, I am sure I sometimes think spinsters are to be envied!"
这时候,她不由得举起两臂,唉声叹声地说:“唉呀呀,我有时真觉得老姑娘是令人羡慕的。”
Her face beamed when she exclaimed this.
她一边叹息,一边脸上却喜气洋洋地发着光。
You remember about her pet wolf. Well, it very soon discovered that she had come to the island and it found her out,
你们还记得她的那只小爱狼吧。嗯,它很快就发现温迪来到了岛上,并且找到了她,
and they just ran into each other's arms. After that it followed her about everywhere.
他们彼此搂抱起来。此后,它就到处跟着她。
As time wore on did she think much about the beloved parents she had left behind her?
时光一天天过去,温迪难道不想念远离的亲爱的父母吗?
