Sure enough, at that very
moment as they looked back, they saw the man bend down to examine something on
the pavement. Then he looked all around for some moments. They held
their breath. The man bent down again, and prodded(以尖物推或刺) the pavement with his shoe.
Toad, who at the best of
times would not have been fast enough escape pursuit, was so tired that he
could hardly move at all. As he felt the toe of the man’s shoe touch him, he
shuffled (慢吞吞地走) a mere couple of inches towards
the road. His friends were all on the safe side of the road and he felt
completely abandoned. The man’s shoe started to move towards him again. The
next thing he knew, there was a flurry (阵风)of winds above him, followed
by a sharp cry of pain.
Then Fox was by his side,
“Fast as you can, up my tail,” he whispered. Toad grasped Fox’s thick brush and
grasped tightly with his front feet, pulled himself slowly up. Fox did not stop
more than a moment. Once he was sure Toad was off the ground, he raced back
across the road again, with Toad hanging grimly on behind.
Tawny Owl(]猫头鹰) had stretched out his claws and skimmed(掠过)
the man’s head, raking through his hair. The man’s arms flailed(用力挥动) wildly upwards and caught the bird a glancing blow on the back,
but Tawny Owl, seeing that Fox and Toad were out of danger, flew steadily upwards
in a wide arc(弧) until the man could no longer see
him. Then he flew back over the road, and over the railings, landing by the
gorse ([植] 金雀花)patch. The moment of danger
had passed.
Tawny Owl looking through,
most of the animals seemed to be silent, and in the dimness(朦胧)he
could make out various shapes crowded together around the gorse.
“Thanks, Owl”, he heard Fox
whisper. “All safe now. Everyone’s exhausted -- no wish to talk at the moment…”
he broke off to yawn. “We’re well hidden here…oh, I’m so tired…I think I’m the
only one still awake. Toad’s asleep already.”
“Good night, Fox.”
“Good night, Owl.” He
whispered. “See you in the evening.”
Tawny Owl flew slowly away to
join the other birds before it grew light. The first stage of the journey was
complete.
