I · The Cyclone第一章 · 龍捲風
原著正文 · 英語
Dorothy lived in the midst of the great Kansas prairies, with Uncle Henry, who was a farmer, and Aunt Em, who was the farmer’s wife. Their house was small, for the lumber to build it had to be carried by wagon many miles.
對照譯文
桃樂絲住在堪薩斯大草原腹地,同當農夫的亨利叔叔和農夫的妻子艾姆嬸嬸生活在一起。他們家的房子很小,因為蓋房用的木材得用馬車從好幾英里外運過來。
原著正文 · 英語
When Dorothy stood in the doorway and looked around, she could see nothing but the great gray prairie on every side. Not a tree nor a house broke the broad sweep of flat country that reached to the edge of the sky in all directions.
對照譯文
當桃樂絲站在門口向四周張望時,放眼望去全是灰濛濛的大草原。平展展的原野一直延伸到四面八方的天邊,中間沒有一棵樹,也沒有一棟別的房屋。
II · The Council with the Munchkins第二章 · 與芒奇金人的會面
原著正文 · 英語
She was awakened by a shock, so sudden and severe that if Dorothy had not been lying on the soft bed she might have been hurt. As it was, the jar made her catch her breath and wonder what had happened; and Toto put his cold little nose into her face and whined dismally.
對照譯文
一陣突如其來的劇烈震動把她驚醒了;要不是桃樂絲當時正躺在柔軟的床上,說不定早就受了傷。即便如此,這一下顛簸還是讓她倒吸了一口涼氣,納悶到底發生了什麼事;托托把冰涼的小鼻子湊到她臉上,嗚咽著發出哀鳴。
原著正文 · 英語
Dorothy sat up and noticed that the house was not moving; nor was it dark, for the bright sunshine came in at the window, flooding the little room. She sprang from her bed and with Toto at her heels ran and opened the door.
對照譯文
桃樂絲坐起身,發現房子已經不再搖晃了,屋裡也不暗,因為明媚的陽光正從窗戶照進來,灑滿整個小房間。她從床上一躍而起,托托緊跟在她腳後跟後面,一起跑過去打開了門。
