Chapter 5 Charlotte
第五章 夏洛
The night seemed long. Wilbur's stomach was empty and his mind was full.
這一夜好像特別長。威爾伯肚子空空的，可是心滿滿的，都是心事。
And when your stomach is empty and your mind is full, it's always hard to sleep.
一個(gè)人肚子空空，心事重重，總是睡不好覺的。
A dozen times during the night Wilbur woke and stared into the blackness,
這天夜里威爾伯醒來十幾次，看著黑暗，
listening to the sounds and trying to figure out what time it was.
聽著響聲，想要琢磨出這是什么時(shí)間了。
A barn is never perfectly quiet.
一間谷倉是永遠(yuǎn)不可能十分安靜的。
Even at midnight there is usually something stirring.
連半夜里也總是有動(dòng)靜。
The first time he woke, he heard Templeton gnawing a hole in the grain bin.
第一次醒來時(shí)，它聽到坦普爾頓在糧倉里啃洞。
Templeton's teeth scraped loudly against the wood and made quite a racket.
坦普爾頓的牙齒很響地啃著木頭，發(fā)出很大的嘰嘎聲。
"That crazy rat!" thought Wilbur.
“那發(fā)瘋的老鼠！”威爾伯在心里說，
"Why does he have to stay up all night,
為什么它一定要整夜醒著，
grinding his clashers and destroying people's property?
嘰嘎嘰嘎磨它的牙齒、破壞人的財(cái)產(chǎn)呢？
Why can't he go to sleep, like any decent animal?"
為什么它不能像所有正正經(jīng)經(jīng)的動(dòng)物那樣睡覺呢？”
