How I Lost Four Ounces in Three Weeks（我怎样在三周里减了四盎司体重）

21. My hunch was right. Two minutes later I set off the Abels' boxer. He circled around me, barking, and refused to leave. Next it was the O'Briens poodle and then a strange sheep dog.

21、我的预感没有错，两分钟以后，我引来了艾贝尔斯家的拳师狗，它围着我绕来绕去，狂吠着，不肯离去。接着奥布赖恩家的狮子狗来了，后来又来了一只陌生的牧羊狗。

22. I was nervous, but I led the parade onward. Once in a while I'd say, "Nice fella!" to nobody in particular. Then a huge collie came bounding out of a driveway. I had heard once that collies love children. I pointed to my shorts and trotted on.

22、我精神紧张，但是仍率领着这支队伍前进。我偶尔并不特别冲着谁地说一声：“好狗!”这时一头巨大的柯利牧羊犬从车道上跳着跑了过来。我曾听说过那头大柯利牧羊犬喜欢孩子。于是我指了指我的短裤，继续向前跑去。

23. What did it, finally, was the Emersons' Great Dane. That dog is the size of a pony and has jaws like an alligator. They call him Cuddles!

23、最后，直正吓坏了我的是埃默生家的丹麦大狗，那条狗像一头小矮马一样大，而且它的嘴长得像短吻鳄的一样，埃默生家的人管这条狗叫宝贝儿！

24. Well, I made it to the Emersons' driveway. I jogged in glory across the lawn. I even had my foot on the porch step when Cuddles burst from his doghouse like a fire engine answering an alarm. The next instant, the whole parade was tearing back down Willow Road. And I was bringing up the rear.

24、我总算跑到埃默生家的车道了。我得意洋洋地缓步跑过草坪。宝贝儿像救火车听到了警报似的从它的狗窝里冲出来时，我甚至已经踏到埃默生家前门廊的台阶上了。说时迟，那时快，整个队伍折了回来，沿着柳条街跑回去，而我却为这支队伍殿后。

25. Halfway home, I remembered that Cuddles was usually chained to his doghouse, so I slowed down. However, I was exhausted when I reached home, and I flung myself down on the front steps to recover.

25、往回跑了一半以后，我才想起来宝贝儿通常是被用铁链拴在狗窝上的，所以我放慢了脚步，然而我跑到家的时候，还是筋疲力尽了。我一下子坐到前台阶上，想恢复一下。

26. Andy was standing by the garage with his trumpet. He and his mother had just got back from his lesson.

26、安迪正拿着小号站在车库旁边。他和他母亲刚从他上课的地方回来。

27. "Gee, Dad," he said excitedly, "did we see the craziest thing on the way home! Some old man in a white bathing suit was chasing a pack of dogs down Willow …… "Then his eyes fell on my clothes. A puzzled look mixed with fear came over his face. "I guess I'd better go practice my trumpet, huh, Dad!" He did not stay for an answer.

27、他兴奋地对我说：“哎呀，爸爸，我们在回家的路上可看到了一件极其古怪的事儿！一个穿着白色游泳衣的老头子沿着柳条街追赶一群狗……”然后他的目光落到了我的衣服上，他的脸上显出一种掺杂着恐惧的困惑表情。“我想我最好去练吹号了，对不对，爸爸？”他不等我回答，就离开了。

28. In spite of it all, I might have kept on running, but that evening I climbed onto the scales. I wanted to see how much lighter I was after three weeks' work. I had lost four ounces. I could have lost more than that by letting Cuddles chew on me for a few seconds!

28、尽管发生了这一切，我本还可以继续跑步的。但是，那天晚上我站到了磅秤上，想知道经过三周的跑步锻炼，我的体重减轻了多少，我减轻了四盎司。如果让宝贝儿把我咬上几秒钟的话，我都能减掉比这多一些的体重！
