第4單元 和海豚一起潛水
Dan's Dolphin Diving offered the best dolphin-spotting tours in all of Hawaii. That's what the ad in the local newspaper said. Michelle called Dan's and booked a trip for two for the following day. Michelle and John were on their honeymoon and they were looking for a little adventure while they stayed in Maui. What could be better than swimming with dolphins?
丹的海豚潛水團(tuán)所安排的海豚主題旅行是全夏威夷最棒的—當(dāng)?shù)貓?bào)紙如此寫(xiě)道,于是蜜雪兒打給丹預(yù)訂了隔天的雙人旅游。蜜雪兒和約翰正在度蜜月,想要在茂伊島度假期間來(lái)點(diǎn)小小的冒險(xiǎn)。還有什么比和海豚一起游泳更棒的事嗎?
Dan helped Michelle with her wetsuit, and then helped her into the water. John followed suit. It wasn't long before they saw two dolphins. They were playing. From the boat, Dan threw out some fish and the dolphins came closer.
丹幫蜜雪兒穿上保溫潛水服,再幫她潛入水中;約翰也跟著穿上潛水服。他們沒(méi)多久就看到兩只海豚在玩耍。丹從船上丟一些食物下來(lái)讓海豚游近一點(diǎn)。
Michelle reached out her hand and gently touched the fin of one of the dolphins. It was soft and slippery. It felt a little like velvet. John took a picture with his underwater camera. The two dolphins squawked at each other. They weretalking, Michelle thought to herself.
蜜雪兒伸出她的手,輕柔地觸摸著其中一只海豚的鰭;海豚的鰭摸起來(lái)又軟又滑,感覺(jué)有點(diǎn)像天鵝絨。約翰則用他那臺(tái)水中照相機(jī)拍照。這兩只海豚互相嘎嘎地叫著,蜜雪兒心想它們應(yīng)該是在交談。
She watched them swim around the boat. They were as graceful as dancers. Michelle wanted to swim away with them. But Dan's tours only lasted four hours. It was time to go. Michelle thanked the dolphins for making her honeymoon special.
她看著它們?cè)诖呌蝸?lái)游去,動(dòng)作就像舞者一樣優(yōu)雅。蜜雪兒很想和它們一起到處游,可是丹安排的旅行只有四小時(shí),時(shí)間也差不多到了。蜜雪兒感謝海豚給了她一個(gè)特別的蜜月旅行。
