The Guardian of the Gates led them through the streets until they came to a big building,
守城門的人，引導(dǎo)他們穿過(guò)了一些街道，直走到一所大廈的前面，
exactly in the middle of the City, which was the Palace of Oz, the Great Wizard.
這就是可怕的大魔術(shù)家奧芝的宮殿，恰恰建筑在這城市的中心。
There was a soldier before the door, dressed in a green uniform and wearing a long green beard.
有一個(gè)兵士站在門前，穿著綠的制服，長(zhǎng)著一叢長(zhǎng)長(zhǎng)的綠胡須。
"Here are strangers," said the Guardian of the Gates to him, "and they demand to see the Great Oz."
守城門的人對(duì)他說(shuō)：“這里有幾個(gè)陌生人，他們要求會(huì)見偉大的奧芝。”
"Step inside," answered the soldier, "and I will carry your message to him."
“走進(jìn)去，”士兵回答說(shuō)，“我會(huì)把你的消息告訴他。”
So they passed through the Palace Gates and were led into a big room with a green carpet and lovely green furniture set with emeralds.
他們穿過(guò)宮殿的大門，被領(lǐng)進(jìn)鋪著綠地毯的一間大屋子里，里面放著用翡翠做的可愛(ài)的綠家具。
The soldier made them all wipe their feet upon a green mat before entering this room,
在走進(jìn)這間屋子以前，那兵士叫他們一起在綠的席墊上擦干凈他們的鞋底，
and when they were seated he said politely: "Please make yourselves comfortable while I go to the door of the Throne Room and tell Oz you are here."
等他們一起坐下以后，他很有禮貌地說(shuō)：“讓我進(jìn)去到那王宮的門前，告訴奧芝說(shuō)你們?cè)谶@里要見他，請(qǐng)你們先在這里隨便休息一下吧。”
