10 句英文原文
" You see," said the woman," I told her to come when she was hungry, and when she'd come I'd give her odd jobs to do; an' I found she was willing, and somehow I got to like her; and the end of it was, I've given her a place an' a home, and she helps me, an' behaves well, an' is as thankful as a girl can be.
" I am so glad," Sara said.
" And I have just thought of something.
" Yes, miss," said the girl.
中文翻译
她立刻认出了萨拉,站在那里看着她,仿佛永远也看不够。
“你看,”那女人说,“我告诉她饿了就来,她来了我就给她些零活干;我发现她很乐意,不知怎的我就喜欢上她了;最后,我给了她一个住处和一个家,她帮我干活,表现很好,而且感激得不能再感激了。”
她的名字叫安妮。
她没有别的了。"
孩子们站着,互相看了几分钟;然后萨拉把手从手筒里抽出来,伸过柜台,安妮握住了它,她们直视着彼此的眼睛。
"我太高兴了," 萨拉说。
"而我刚刚想到了某件事。
也许布朗太太会让你成为那个给孩子们分发小圆面包和面包的人。
也许你想这么做,是因为你也知道饥饿是什么滋味。"
"是的,小姐," 女孩说道。
