"Pinocchio, you wicked boy!" he cried out.

他转脸向皮诺乔哭着说：“你这个熊孩子！

"You are not yet finished, and you start out by being impudent to your poor old father. Verybad, my son, very bad!"

还没把你做完，你已经这样不尊敬父亲了！真坏，我的孩子，你真坏！”

And he wiped away a tear.

他擦掉眼泪。

The legs and feet still had to be made.

接下来只剩下做腿，做脚了。

As soon as they were done, Geppetto felt a sharp kick on the tip of his nose.

杰佩托把脚一做好，就感到鼻尖上给踢了一脚。

"I deserve it!" he said to himself.

“我这是自作自受！”杰佩托自言自语。

"I should have thought of this before I made him. Now it's too late!"

“我一开头做它就该想到这一点！现在已经来不及了！”

He took hold of the Marionette under the arms and put him on the floor to teach him to walk.

他抱住木偶的肢窝，把他放在地板上，要教他走路。

Pinocchio's legs were so stiff that he could not move them, and Geppetto held his hand andshowed him how to put out one foot after the other.

皮诺乔的腿僵硬着，不会动。杰佩托搀着他的手，教他一步一步地走。

When his legs were limbered up, Pinocchio started walking by himself and ran all around theroom.

等到他的腿变得灵活，皮诺乔就开始自己走了，接着他满屋子乱跑。

He came to the open door, and with one leap he was out into the street. Away he flew!

最后他跑去打开大门，蹦到街上，溜走了。

Poor Geppetto ran after him but was unable to catch him, for Pinocchio ran in leaps andbounds, his two wooden feet, as they beat on the stones of the street, making as much noiseas twenty peasants in wooden shoes.

可怜的杰佩托在他后面追，可是追不上，因为皮诺乔这小坏蛋飞快地蹦蹦跳跳。他那双木脚却在街道路面的石头上劈劈啪啪，活像二十双农民的木头鞋在响。

"Catch him! Catch him!" Geppetto kept shouting.

“抓住他！抓住他！”杰佩托大叫。

But the people in the street, seeing a wooden Marionette running like the wind, stood still tostare and to laugh until they cried.

可街上的人看见木偶跑得风一样快，只是停下来望着他出神，哈哈地笑啊笑啊，眼泪都笑出来了。

At last, by sheer luck, a Carabineer happened along, who, hearing all that noise, thought that itmight be a runaway colt, and stood bravely in the middle of the street, with legs wide apart,firmly resolved to stop it and prevent any trouble.

幸亏最后碰到一个马枪骑兵，他听到人们吵吵闹闹，以为是一匹马驹逃走了，于是大胆地站在路当中，跨开一双粗腿，决心要把马拦住，免得闯大祸。

Pinocchio saw the Carabineer from afar and tried his best to escape between the legs of the bigfellow, but without success.

皮诺乔远远看见马枪骑兵把整条街拦住，就想在他两腿之间一下子冲过去，可是没成功。

The Carabineer grabbed him by the nose (it was an extremely long one and seemed made onpurpose for that very thing) and returned him to Mastro Geppetto.

马枪骑兵一把就抓住了他的鼻子（这个鼻子真长、像是特地做出来给马枪骑兵抓的），把他交还到杰佩托手里。
