托德,她说,你不必看起来那么慌张 。这不比你应得的多,连一半都不到 。
Aren't you the kindest man yourself that ever lived? Aren't you always doing something for everybody, and helping every one of these neighbors in all sorts of ways?
你难道不是世界上最善良的人吗?你不是一直都在为每个人做点什么,用各种方式帮助每一个邻居吗?
I'd like to know what the whole place would do without you! And now, just because they remember you on Thanksgiving Day, you look like...

The steam had got into Aunt Tildy's eyes now, and she sat down again just as there came another knock at the door,
蒂尔迪姨妈的眼睛里冒出了蒸汽,她又坐下了,这时又有人敲门,
a timid sort of knock this time. The inventor's face widened in smiles at this, but Eph looked him sternly in the eye,
这次有点胆小 。发明家对这件事笑得满脸通红,但伊芙严肃地看着他的眼睛,
Jeddediah Jodkins! he said; if that is any more people bringing things to eat to this house, they'll have to go away.

We can't have it. We've got enough here now to feed a...a boarding school. The inventor sprang eagerly to his feet.

别这样,伊芙,他说,别这样 。我刚想到一个办法 。
A thinly clad man and woman stood at the door which Eph opened. Both looked pale and tired, and the woman shivered.

Can you tell me where I can get work, asked the man, so that I can earn something to eat? We are not beggars,
你能告诉我在哪里能找到工作吗?那人问,这样我就能挣点吃的吗?我们不是乞丐,
he flushed a little, but I have had no work lately, and we have eaten nothing since yesterday. We are looking...
他脸红了一点,但我最近没有工作,从昨天起我们什么也没吃 。我们正在寻找...
The man stopped, and well he might, for Eph was dancing wildly about the two, and hustling them into the house.
那人停了下来,很可能,因为伊芙在那两个人周围狂舞,推搡着让他们进屋 。
Come in! he shouted. Come in! Come in! You're the folks we are waiting for! Eat? Why, goodness gracious!
进来!他喊道 。进来!进来!你就是我们等待的人!吃?为什么,仁慈的上帝!

There! he said, don't you say another word till you have filled up on that. Folks and he turned to the others,
看!他说,在你吃饱之前不要说一个字 。伙计们,他转向其他人,
these two friends have come to stay a week with us and help eat turkey. Fall to! This is going to be the pleasantest Thanksgiving we've had yet.
