美国小学英语教材4:第123课 罗布的第一只黑鲸(5)

 Men were selected to see that none of the fish were stolen during the night; 挑选出几个人来确保鱼不会在夜里被偷走;

and the boats started for their landing-places. 于是船起航，往着陆点开去。

Tomorrow the fish would be sold. 明天鱼就要卖了。

"You might as well run along home, Rob¹,” said Captain Jim, as the boat touched the shore. 当船靠岸的时候，吉姆船长说道：“罗布，你还是赶快回家吧，

"You've been working pretty hard today, and you're all wet.” That was all he said. 你今天干活真卖力。”他说。

But as Rob started on a brisk² run up the road, he heard the Captain call out: 但是当罗布沿着大路疾步快跑的时候，他听到船长喊道：

"You stopped those fish like a man. “你像个男子汉一样阻止了那些鱼。

Some day you'11 make the best fisherman in the whole village.” 总有一天，你会成为全村最好的渔夫。”
