10 Greenworld
10 綠色世界
Two days 1ater Christine and Simon arrived at John's house．It was very early—five o'clock in the morning —and they didn't knock at the door，or try to wake anyone up．In fact John wasn't there；Christine knew he had gone to Scotland to see Mary．He was coming back on the morning of the Enquiry．
兩天過后克里斯汀和西蒙到達約翰的家。時間很早——早晨5點——他們沒有敲門，也不想吵醒任何人。事實上約翰不在。克里斯汀知道他去蘇格蘭看瑪麗了。他將在聽證會那天早晨回來。
Christine and Simon walked quietly down to the boathouse by the river．Without talking，they put the boat in the water，and sailed away across the river．
克里斯汀和西蒙悄悄地走向河邊的船屋。沒有交談，他們將船放入水中，向河對岸劃去。
On the other side of the river they met two friends，Peter and Susan．Their friends were wearing white clothes，with Greenworld written on them．Simon and Christine also put on white clothes．Then they all got into the boat and sailed up-stream，towards the paint factory．
在河的另一邊他們與兩個朋友——彼得和蘇珊——會面了。他們的朋友身穿白色衣服，上面寫著綠色世界。西蒙和克里斯汀也穿上白衣服。然后他們全部上船向上游油漆廠的方向駛去。
It was a windy morning，and the waves on the river were quite big．But Christine was a good sailor，and in about half an hour，they reached the factory．Two photographers stood by the river，taking photos of them．
這天早晨風很大，河中波濤滾滾，但是克里斯汀是一個優秀的水手，大約半小時，他們就到達了工廠。兩名攝影師站在河邊拍下了他們。
'OK，Simon，where is it？'shouted Christine．
“好啦，西蒙，它在哪？”克里斯汀喊道。
'Over there，look—in front of that post！'he said．Chris-tine sailed the boat towards the post．When they were near it，they could see under the water．It was the pipe that took the waste products out of the factory．
“在那兒，看啊，在柱子前面！”他說道。克里斯汀將船向柱子劃去。當他們靠近時，他們可以看見水下，那是從工廠排放出廢料的管子。
'OK，here！'shouted Simon．Christine turned the boat to-wards the wind，and Susan caught hold of the post．Then Si- mon and Peter climbed out of the boat into the water．
“好啦，在這里！”西蒙喊道。克里斯汀把船轉向順風，蘇珊抓住柱子。然后西蒙和彼得爬出船跳入水中。
