對巴克來說,在奔波了5000公里之后,休息是最快意的事情了,他逐漸恢復(fù)了強(qiáng)壯,長胖了許多。
It was a peace ful,lazy time for both man and dogs while they waited for Thornton's friends to return from Dawson.

Skeet made friends with Buck immediately,and while Buck was still very ill, every morning she washed his cuts carefully with her tongue.

Sometimes Thornton joined the games too.
有時桑頓也加入其中。
