My nagging got the better of Jem eventually, as I knew it would, and to my relief weslowed down the game for a while. He still maintained, however, that Atticus hadn’t saidwe couldn’t, therefore we could; and if Atticus ever said we couldn’t, Jem had thought ofa way around it: he would simply change the names of the characters and then wecouldn’t be accused of playing anything.
我唠叨不停,杰姆终于让步了。我就知道他会让步的。我们放慢了节目的速度,我这才松了口气。但是他坚持认为阿迪克斯并没说我们不能演,因此我们可以演。即使阿迪克斯说了我们不能演,杰姆已经想好了应付的办法只需把人物的姓名改一下,别人就没什么可责备我们的了。
Dill was in hearty agreement with this plan of action. Dill was becoming something of atrial anyway, following Jem about. He had asked me earlier in the summer to marry him,then he promptly forgot about it. He staked me out, marked as his property, said I wasthe only girl he would ever love, then he neglected me. I beat him up twice but it did nogood, he only grew closer to Jem. They spent days together in the treehouse plottingand planning, calling me only when they needed a third party. But I kept aloof from theirmore foolhardy schemes for a while, and on pain of being called a girl, I spent most ofthe remaining twilights that summer sitting with Miss Maudie Atkinson on her frontporch.
迪尔衷心拥护这个行动计划。他变得越来越讨厌了,老跟在杰姆屁股后边转。夏天开始时他曾经提出要和我结婚,说完就忘了。他把我当作他的财产,说他永远只爱我一个人,可又把我抛下不管。我狠狠打过他两次,没用,他反而跟杰姆跟得更紧了。他们整天呆在树上的小屋里挖空心思,制定计划,只是在需要第三者时才把我叫上去。好一段时间我对他们敬而远之,不参加他们的那些越来越愚蠢的计戈!。为了免遭太女孩子气的指责,那个夏天剩下的傍晚我干脆和莫迪·阿特金森小姐一起,天天坐在她的前廊上。
Jem and I had always enjoyed the free run of Miss Maudie’s yard if we kept out of herazaleas, but our contact with her was not clearly defined. Until Jem and Dill excludedme from their plans, she was only another lady in the neighborhood, but a relativelybenign presence.
只要我们不动莫迪小姐的杜鹃花,杰姆和我就可以在她的院子里任意玩耍。但是我们和她的接触并没有明确规定下来。在杰姆和迪怨没有把我从他们的计戈!!中排除之前,她不过是邻近的一位小姐,仅仅是比较平易近人罢了。
Our tacit treaty with Miss Maudie was that we could play on her lawn, eat herscuppernongs if we didn’t jump on the arbor, and explore her vast back lot, terms sogenerous we seldom spoke to her, so careful were we to preserve the delicate balanceof our relationship, but Jem and Dill drove me closer to her with their behavior.
