听到亨利爵士的问题时白瑞摩变得脸色煞白。 [00:23.740]‘There are only two women in the house，Sir Henry，’he answered． “
亨利爵爷，这个房子里只有两个女人，”他回答道 [00:28.748]‘One is the maid，who sleeps on the other side of the house． “
一位是女仆，她睡在对面厢房里。 [00:33.862]The other is my wife，and she was certainly not crying．’
另一位就是我的妻子，她当然没有哭了。” [00:38.339]But he was telling a lie．
但是他在撒谎。 [00:41.574]I saw Mrs Barrymore after breakfast．
早饭后我见到了白瑞摩夫人 [00:45.206]The sun was full on her face，and it was clear she had been crying．
阳光普照在她的脸上，清楚地表明她曾哭过。 [00:50.467]Why had Barrymore lied？
白瑞摩为何要撒谎呢？ [00:55.326]What deep sadness had made his wife cry？
是什么样的至深的悲伤曾使他的妻子哭泣呢？ [00:59.400]There was a mystery surrounding this black- bearded，handsome man．
这个蓄着黑须的英俊男人的周围萦绕着一团疑云。 [01:04.026]Was it possible that Barrymore was in fact the man who had been watching Sir Henry in London？
白瑞摩有可能其实就是在伦敦监视亨利爵士的那个人吗？ [01:10.438]I decided I must check with the local post office that the telegram had really been put into Barrymore's own hands．
我决定与当地邮局核实一番，看看那封电报是否送到了白瑞摩手中。 [01:18.268]While Sir Henry worked at some papers，
在亨利爵士处理一些文件时， [01:22.316]I walked to the post office．
我便步行去了邮局。 [01:24.224]It was in the nearest village，which was called Grimpen．
它在距此最近的一个名叫格林盆的村庄里。 [01:27.907]I spoke to the boy who had taken the telegram to the Hall．
我对把电报投送到庄园的那个男孩说起话来。 [01:32.272]‘Did you give it to Mr Barrymore himself？’I asked． “
你把它交给白瑞摩先生本人了吗？”我问道。 [01:36.964]‘Well，’the boy said， “
啊，”小男孩说道 [01:40.043]‘he was working upon the roof，so I couldn't give it to him．“
他当时正在屋顶上忙乎，所以我没法交给他 [01:44.615]I gave it to Mrs Barrymore，

要是他不在屋顶上他妻子干嘛要说他在呢？” [01:58.375]It was hopeless to ask any more questions．
再继续问下去也是无望的了。 [02:01.849]It was clear that Holmes' cleverness with the telegram had not given us the proof we needed．
很清楚，福尔摩斯在电报上所施的高招并未给我们提供所需的证据。 [02:08.200]I was walking away from the post office when I heard someone running after me．
我从邮局出来正往前走着，这时听到身后有人在跑。 [02:15.038]A voice called me by name，
有人叫我的名字， [02:17.716]and I turned．
我便转过身去。 [02:18.944]I expected to see Dr Mortimer，as I knew nobody else in the village．
因为我在村里并不认识别人，所以我料想着看到的应是摩梯末医生。 [02:23.301]To my surprise it was a stranger．
令我感到吃惊的是，那是位陌生人。 [02:28.044]He was a small，thin man，
他是个矮小瘦削的男人， [02:29.930]between thirty and forty years old，with fair hair and no beard．

我希望您会原谅我的冒昧，华生医生，” [02:45.933]he said as he came up to me．
他走到我跟前对我说道。 [02:48.025]‘My name is Stapleton． “
我叫斯台普顿。 [02:50.025]I was in Dr Mortimer's house and we saw you．
当我在摩梯末医生家拜访他时，我们瞥见了您。 [02:53.176]He told me who you are．
他就把您告诉给了我。 [02:55.393]May I walk along with you？
我可以与您同行吗？ [02:57.721]This path back to the Hall goes near my home，Pen House．
回庄园的这条路正在格林盆宅邸即我的家附近。 [03:03.493]Please come in and meet my sister，and spend an hour with us．’
请进来见见我妹妹，并与我们呆一会儿。” [03:07.585]I accepted Stapleton's invitation，and we walked together．
我接受了斯台普顿的邀请，于是我们便同步而行。 [03:13.161]‘I know that you are a close friend of Sherlock Holmes，’ “
我知道您是歇洛克·福尔摩斯的亲密的朋友，” [03:17.539]said Stapleton．
斯台普顿讲道。 [03:19.023]‘Has Mr Holmes any ideas about Sir Charles death？’ “
福尔摩斯先生对查尔斯爵士的死有些看法了吗？” [03:22.753]‘I'm afraid I can't answer that question，’I said． “
我恐怕不能回答这个问题，”我说道。 [03:27.916]‘Will Mr Holmes visit us himself？’he asked． “
福尔摩斯先生是否将亲自来这儿光临我们呢？”他问道。 [03:31.156]‘He can't leave London at the moment，’I answered． “
目前他还不能离开伦敦，”我回答道。 [03:35.217]I was rather surprised that he was asking me these questions
我对他问我这些问题感到很惊讶。 [03:39.435]We walked on．
我们继续前行。 [03:41.507]Stapleton told me that he and his sister had lived in Devonshire for only two years．
斯台普顿告诉我说，他和他妹妹在德文郡住了两年光景。 [03:47.374]They had moved there soon after Sir Charles had begun to live in Baskerville Hall．
查尔斯爵士刚住进巴斯克维尔庄园没有多久，他们便搬到那儿了。 [03:51.938]He also talked about the moor and how it interested him．
他还谈到了沼地及其如何激发起他的兴趣的事情。 [03:56.542]He told me to look across the moor to a place which was a bright green colour．
他让我朝沼地的尽头看以眺望一处呈嫩绿色的地方。 [04:02.073]‘That is the Great Grimpen Marsh，’he said “
那就是格林盆大泥潭，”他说道。 [04:06.709]‘If animals or men go into the marsh，they will sink into it and die． “
如果人畜踏进这片泥潭的话，就会陷进去送命的。 [04:11.156]But I can find my way to the very centre of it．
但是我却能找到通往泥潭中心的道路。 [04:14.809]Look，there is another of those poor horses．’
瞧，又一匹倒霉的马儿陷进去了。” [04:18.355]Something brown was fighting to get out of the bright green of the marsh．
有个棕色的东西正在竭力挣扎着，想要从那片嫩绿色的泥潭中挣脱出来。 [04:23.792]Then a terrible cry came across the moor．
接着，从沼地传来一声可怕的吼声。 [04:27.524]The horse's head and neck disappeared under the green．
马的头和颈消失在那片绿色之下了。 [04:30.956]‘It's gone，’Stapleton said．‘The marsh has caught and killed it．That often happens．It is an evil place，the Great Grimpen Marsh．’ [04:38.176]
“它完了，”斯台普顿道。“泥潭已把它给吞没了。这种情形经常发生。格林盆大泥潭可真是个邪恶的地方。” [04:39.377]‘But you say you can go safely in and out of it？’I asked him． “
但是您不是说您能安全地进出其中吗？”我向他问道。 [04:47.636]‘Yes，there are a few paths， “
是啊，其中有几条道， [04:50.750]and I have found them．
我都找到了。 [04:52.751]The low hills you can see are like islands surrounded by the marsh．
您所能看到的那些小山就像是被泥潭环绕着的小岛一样 [04:56.835]That is where I can find the unusual plants and butterflies．
那便是我能觅到稀有植物和稀世蝴蝶的处所。 [05:00.489]And that's why I found my way through the marsh．’
而且那便是我为何能在泥潭中找到了路的原因。” [05:03.636]‘I shall try my luck one day，’I said． “
某天我也去碰碰运气，”我说道。 [05:06.841]He looked at me in surprise．
他带着惊讶的神情看着我。 [05:10.148]‘Please don't try，’he said．
“千万别去试，”他说道。 [05:12.543]‘You would never return alive，and it would be my fault．’
“您是不会活着回来的。那样就是我的错了。” [05:15.665]‘Listen，’I said．‘What is that？’
“听听，”我说道。“是什么东西？” [05:20.708]A long，low cry，very deep and very sad，came over the moor．
一声又低又长、非常深沉、相当悲惨的叫声传遍了整个沼地。 [05:27.305]It filled the whole air．Then it died away．
它响彻空中，接着便消逝了。 [05:31.655]‘What is it？’I asked，with a cold fear in my heart．
“这是什么？”我问道，心里害怕得直打冷战。 [05:37.689]Stapleton had a strange look on his face．
斯台普顿的脸上带着一种奇怪的神色。 [05:44.151]‘The people say it's the Hound of the Baskervilles，
“人们说这是巴斯克维尔猎犬 [05:48.163]which is calling for something to hunt and kill．
它正在召唤猎物。 [05:50.692]I've heard it once or twice before，
我以前曾听到过一两次， [05:55.099]but never so loud．’
可是声音从没有这么大过。” [05:56.602]‘You are a man of science，’I said． “
您是位科学工作者，”我说道。 [05:58.859]‘You don't believe that，do you？ “
谅您也不会相信这些，是吧？ [06:01.208]Isn't there a natural explanation for the sound？’
难道对这种声音就没有一个符合自然规律的解释吗？” [06:03.929]‘A marsh makes strange noises sometimes． “
泥潭有时会发出奇怪的声音。 [06:07.932]It is the water and the wet ground moving．’
这是由于水和稀泥在移动。” [06:10.423]‘But that was the voice of a living creature，’I said． “
可是那是动物发出的声音呀。” [06:14.381]‘Well，perhaps it was．
“啊，也许是。 [06:15.989]There are some very unusual birds on the moors．
沼地上有些稀有鸟类。 [06:19.701]It was most probably the cry of one of those．’
极有可能是其中某一只的叫声。” [06:23.539]At that moment a small butterfly flew across the path in front of us．
那时，一只小蝴蝶从我们面前飞过。 [06:29.093]‘Excuse me，Dr Watson，’shouted Stapleton， “
对不起，华生医生，”斯台普顿高喊着， [06:33.323]and ran off to try to catch the butterfly．
同时跑开捉蝴蝶去了。 [06:36.602]He ran quickly and followed the butterfly on to the marsh，
他飞快地跑着，随着那只蝴蝶到了泥潭中， [06:41.483]but he knew exactly where he could go，
但是他知道自己的脚该落在哪儿， [06:43.690]and was not in any danger．
因此便没有什么危险。 [06:45.508]As I watched him，I heard the sound of steps behind me．
正当我注视着他的时侯，我听到了身后的脚步声。 [06:50.148]I turned and saw a woman near me on the path．
我转过身去，看到路上离我不远处有一个女子。 [06:54.208]I was sure she was Miss Stapleton．
我敢肯定她便是斯台普顿小姐。 [06:57.239]She was very beautiful．She was dark and tall，with a lovely face．
她人很漂亮，肤色很深，身材纤长。 [07:02.688]Before I could say anything，she said：
我还没来得及开口说话，她便说道： [07:05.303]‘Go back！Go straight back to London，immediately． “
回去吧！马上回到伦敦去。 [07:09.095]I can not tell you why，but please do what I ask you，
我不能告诉您缘由，可是请照我说的去做， [07:12.511]and never come near the moor again．
千万不要再靠近沼地了。 [07:15.042]But my brother is coming．Not a word to him．’
但是，我哥哥来了。对他什么也别说。” [07:18.899]Stapleton had caught the butterfly，
斯台普顿已抓到了那只蝴蝶， [07:21.852]and was walking bath to us．
正向我们这边走回来。 [07:23.819]‘Hello，my dear，’he said to his sister， “
你好，我亲爱的，”他对他妹妹说道， [07:28.248]but it seemed to me that his voice was not completely friendly．
可是就我看来他的语气并不怎么友好。 [07:32.037]‘I see that you two have already introduced yourselves．’ “
我看得出来你们俩已经做过自我介绍了。” [07:35.862]‘Yes，’she said．
“是啊，”她说道。 [07:39.003]‘I was telling Sir Henry that it was rather late in the year for him to see the true beauty of the moor．’ “
我正和亨利爵士说，他来得太晚了，已经看不到沼地的真正美丽之处了。 [07:45.011]” [07:45.214]‘I am sorry，’I said． “
我很抱歉，”我说道。 [07:49.636]‘You have made a mistake．I'm not Sir Henry． “
您弄错了。我不是亨利爵士。 [07:51.592]I am a friend who is visiting him，and my name is Dr Watson．’
我是来拜访他的一位朋友，我是华生医生。” [07:57.606]Miss Stapleton was clearly angry with herself．
斯台普顿小姐显然对自己很懊恼。 [08:01.872]‘I'm sorry，’ she said． “
我很抱歉，”她说道。 [08:04.403]‘Please forget what I said． “
请忘掉我所说的话。 [08:06.828]But do come with us to our house．’
可是，您一定得和我们一道去屋里坐坐。” [08:09.548]The house was lonely and rather grim．
这所房屋既偏僻又相当阴森。 [08:13.307]I wondered why the two of them had come to live so far away from anyone else．
我纳闷他们俩为何到这种与他人相隔甚远的地方来居住。 [08:18.534]Stapleton seemed to know what I was thinking，and said：
斯台普顿似乎知道我在想些什么，于是便说道： [08:22.299]‘You may think this a lonely，strange place to live， “
您可能认为这儿要住人的话偏僻和奇特了些， [08:26.443]but the moors are very interesting，and we enjoy it here．
可是这些沼地相当有趣，我们在这儿过得也很快活。 [08:29.997]I owned a school in the north of England，
我曾在英格兰北部办过一所学校， [08:33.538]but I had to close it．
但是后来被迫关闭了。 [08:35.500]I miss the boys and girls but thefe is plenty to do here，
我很怀念那些孩子们，但在此处有许多事情都有待去做 [08:39.580]and we have good neighbours．
而且我们还有很好的邻居们。 [08:41.105]I hope Sir Henry will become one of tnem．
我希望亨利爵士也会成为其中的一员。 [08:44.177]May I visit the Hall this afternoon to meet him，do you think？’
您认为我今天下午可否冒昧地去庄园拜访一下他呢？” [08:48.537]‘I'm sure he will be very pleased to meet you，’I said． “
我现在得回庄园去了，我还打算立刻告诉他这个消息。” [08:52.725]‘I must go back to the Hall now，and I shall tell him immediately．’ “
我敢说他一定会高兴见到您的，”我说道。 [08:56.507]I said goodbye to the Stapletons，
我与斯台普顿兄妹道了别， [09:00.298]and continued on the path back to the Hall．
继续沿着回庄园的那条路向前走。 [09:03.115]I had been walking for only a few minutes when I was surprised to see Miss Stapleton sitting on a rock ahead of me．
没走几分钟便惊奇地看到斯台普顿小姐正坐在我前边的一块岩石上。 [09:10.514]She was breathing quickly，
她呼吸急促， [09:12.614]and I realized she had run by a quicker way to get ahead of me．
我意识到她是为了赶在我前面而抄近路跑来的。 [09:16.539]‘Dr Watson，’she said． “
华生医生，”她说道。 [09:19.919]‘I want to say sorry for the mistake I made． “
因我所犯的错误，我想向您致以深深的歉意。 [09:23.195]I thought you were Sir Henry．
我竟把您当成亨利爵士了。 [09:25.552]Please forget what I said．
请忘掉我说过的话。 [09:27.406]I did not mean you were in danger．
我当时并不是说您有危险。 [09:30.335]Now I must go，or my brother will miss me．’
现在我得走了，否则的话我哥哥就要挂念我了。” [09:34.423]‘I cannot forget your words，Miss Stapleton，’I said．‘If Sir Henry is in danger，I must tell him．’ [09:41.714]
“我不会忘记您的话语的，斯台普顿小姐，”我说道。“如果亨利爵士有危险的话，那我就得告诉他。” [09:42.644]‘You know the story of the Hound？’she asked me． “
您知道那个猎犬的故事吧？”她对我问道。 [09:46.623]‘Yes，but I do not believe it，’I replied． “
知道，但是我并不相信它，”我应答道。 [09:50.931]‘But I think it's true，’she said． “
可是我认为它是真实的，”她说道。 [09:54.276]‘Please persuade Sir Henry to leave this place． “
请劝说亨利爵士离开这个地方。 [09:57.355]So many of his family have died here mysteriously．
他家族中的那么多人都在这儿神秘地死去了。 [10:00.757]He must not put his life in danger by staying here．’
他不应该因呆在这儿而让自己冒生命危险。” [10:04.210]‘Sir Henry won't leave this place without a real reason，’I said． “
没有真正的理由的话亨利爵士是不会离开此地的，”我说道。 [10:08.869]‘I can't give you a real reason．I don't know anything for certain．’ “
我给不出真正的理由。我并非确切地知道某些事情。” [10:13.316]‘One more question，Miss Stapleton，’I said． “
还有一个问题，斯台普顿小姐，”我说道。 [10:17.087]‘The story of the Hound is well known． “
猎犬的故事是众所周知的。 [10:20.809]Why didn't you want your brother to hear what you said？’
您为何不愿让您哥哥听到您所说的话呢？” [10:23.723]‘My brother wants the head of the Baskerville family to live in the Hall，’she said． “
我哥哥想让巴斯克维尔家族的主人在这个庄园里住下来，”她说道。 [10:29.053]‘He wants Sir Henry to continue the good work that Sir Charles began． “
他想叫亨利爵士把查尔斯爵士开创的慈善工作继续下去。 [10:34.262]He doesn't want Sir Henry to go and live in another place．
他不想让亨利爵士去别处居住。 [10:37.044]So he doesn't want me to talk about the Hound．
因此他不想让我谈论猎犬的事情。 [10:40.659]I must go now，or my brother will guess I have been speaking to you．Goodbye！’
我现在得走了，否则的话我哥哥就会猜到我是在同您谈话了。再见！” [10:46.512]She turned and went back towards her house，
她转身往回走去， [10:51.207]and I walked on to Baskerville Hall．
我便继续向巴斯克维尔庄园走去。

当我在摩梯末医生家拜访他时，我们瞥见了您。 [02:53.176]He told me who you are．
他就把您告诉给了我。 [02:55.393]May I walk along with you？
我可以与您同行吗？ [02:57.721]This path back to the Hall goes near my home，Pen House．
回庄园的这条路正在格林盆宅邸即我的家附近。 [03:03.493]Please come in and meet my sister，and spend an hour with us．’
请进来见见我妹妹，并与我们呆一会儿。” [03:07.585]I accepted Stapleton's invitation，and we walked together．
我接受了斯台普顿的邀请，于是我们便同步而行。 [03:13.161]‘I know that you are a close friend of Sherlock Holmes，’ “
我知道您是歇洛克·福尔摩斯的亲密的朋友，” [03:17.539]said Stapleton．
斯台普顿讲道。 [03:19.023]‘Has Mr Holmes any ideas about Sir Charles death？’ “
福尔摩斯先生对查尔斯爵士的死有些看法了吗？” [03:22.753]‘I'm afraid I can't answer that question，’I said． “
我恐怕不能回答这个问题，”我说道。 [03:27.916]‘Will Mr Holmes visit us himself？’he asked． “
福尔摩斯先生是否将亲自来这儿光临我们呢？”他问道。 [03:31.156]‘He can't leave London at the moment，’I answered． “
目前他还不能离开伦敦，”我回答道。 [03:35.217]I was rather surprised that he was asking me these questions
我对他问我这些问题感到很惊讶。 [03:39.435]We walked on．
我们继续前行。 [03:41.507]Stapleton told me that he and his sister had lived in Devonshire for only two years．
斯台普顿告诉我说，他和他妹妹在德文郡住了两年光景。 [03:47.374]They had moved there soon after Sir Charles had begun to live in Baskerville Hall．
查尔斯爵士刚住进巴斯克维尔庄园没有多久，他们便搬到那儿了。 [03:51.938]He also talked about the moor and how it interested him．
他还谈到了沼地及其如何激发起他的兴趣的事情。 [03:56.542]He told me to look across the moor to a place which was a bright green colour．
他让我朝沼地的尽头看以眺望一处呈嫩绿色的地方。 [04:02.073]‘That is the Great Grimpen Marsh，’he said “
那就是格林盆大泥潭，”他说道。 [04:06.709]‘If animals or men go into the marsh，they will sink into it and die． “
如果人畜踏进这片泥潭的话，就会陷进去送命的。 [04:11.156]But I can find my way to the very centre of it．
但是我却能找到通往泥潭中心的道路。 [04:14.809]Look，there is another of those poor horses．’
瞧，又一匹倒霉的马儿陷进去了。” [04:18.355]Something brown was fighting to get out of the bright green of the marsh．
有个棕色的东西正在竭力挣扎着，想要从那片嫩绿色的泥潭中挣脱出来。 [04:23.792]Then a terrible cry came across the moor．
接着，从沼地传来一声可怕的吼声。 [04:27.524]The horse's head and neck disappeared under the green．
马的头和颈消失在那片绿色之下了。 [04:30.956]‘It's gone，’Stapleton said．‘The marsh has caught and killed it．That often happens．It is an evil place，the Great Grimpen Marsh．’ [04:38.176]
“它完了，”斯台普顿道。“泥潭已把它给吞没了。这种情形经常发生。格林盆大泥潭可真是个邪恶的地方。” [04:39.377]‘But you say you can go safely in and out of it？’I asked him． “
但是您不是说您能安全地进出其中吗？”我向他问道。 [04:47.636]‘Yes，there are a few paths， “
是啊，其中有几条道， [04:50.750]and I have found them．
我都找到了。 [04:52.751]The low hills you can see are like islands surrounded by the marsh．
您所能看到的那些小山就像是被泥潭环绕着的小岛一样 [04:56.835]That is where I can find the unusual plants and butterflies．
那便是我能觅到稀有植物和稀世蝴蝶的处所。 [05:00.489]And that's why I found my way through the marsh．’
而且那便是我为何能在泥潭中找到了路的原因。” [05:03.636]‘I shall try my luck one day，’I said． “
某天我也去碰碰运气，”我说道。 [05:06.841]He looked at me in surprise．
他带着惊讶的神情看着我。 [05:10.148]‘Please don't try，’he said．
“千万别去试，”他说道。 [05:12.543]‘You would never return alive，and it would be my fault．’
“您是不会活着回来的。那样就是我的错了。” [05:15.665]‘Listen，’I said．‘What is that？’
“听听，”我说道。“是什么东西？” [05:20.708]A long，low cry，very deep and very sad，came over the moor．
一声又低又长、非常深沉、相当悲惨的叫声传遍了整个沼地。 [05:27.305]It filled the whole air．Then it died away．
它响彻空中，接着便消逝了。 [05:31.655]‘What is it？’I asked，with a cold fear in my heart．
“这是什么？”我问道，心里害怕得直打冷战。 [05:37.689]Stapleton had a strange look on his face．
斯台普顿的脸上带着一种奇怪的神色。 [05:44.151]‘The people say it's the Hound of the Baskervilles，
“人们说这是巴斯克维尔猎犬 [05:48.163]which is calling for something to hunt and kill．
它正在召唤猎物。 [05:50.692]I've heard it once or twice before，
我以前曾听到过一两次， [05:55.099]but never so loud．’
可是声音从没有这么大过。” [05:56.602]‘You are a man of science，’I said． “
您是位科学工作者，”我说道。 [05:58.859]‘You don't believe that，do you？ “
谅您也不会相信这些，是吧？ [06:01.208]Isn't there a natural explanation for the sound？’
难道对这种声音就没有一个符合自然规律的解释吗？” [06:03.929]‘A marsh makes strange noises sometimes． “
泥潭有时会发出奇怪的声音。 [06:07.932]It is the water and the wet ground moving．’
这是由于水和稀泥在移动。” [06:10.423]‘But that was the voice of a living creature，’I said． “
可是那是动物发出的声音呀。” [06:14.381]‘Well，perhaps it was．
“啊，也许是。 [06:15.989]There are some very unusual birds on the moors．
沼地上有些稀有鸟类。 [06:19.701]It was most probably the cry of one of those．’
极有可能是其中某一只的叫声。” [06:23.539]At that moment a small butterfly flew across the path in front of us．
那时，一只小蝴蝶从我们面前飞过。 [06:29.093]‘Excuse me，Dr Watson，’shouted Stapleton， “
对不起，华生医生，”斯台普顿高喊着， [06:33.323]and ran off to try to catch the butterfly．
同时跑开捉蝴蝶去了。 [06:36.602]He ran quickly and followed the butterfly on to the marsh，
他飞快地跑着，随着那只蝴蝶到了泥潭中， [06:41.483]but he knew exactly where he could go，
但是他知道自己的脚该落在哪儿， [06:43.690]and was not in any danger．
因此便没有什么危险。 [06:45.508]As I watched him，I heard the sound of steps behind me．
正当我注视着他的时侯，我听到了身后的脚步声。 [06:50.148]I turned and saw a woman near me on the path．
我转过身去，看到路上离我不远处有一个女子。 [06:54.208]I was sure she was Miss Stapleton．
我敢肯定她便是斯台普顿小姐。 [06:57.239]She was very beautiful．She was dark and tall，with a lovely face．
她人很漂亮，肤色很深，身材纤长。 [07:02.688]Before I could say anything，she said：
我还没来得及开口说话，她便说道： [07:05.303]‘Go back！Go straight back to London，immediately． “
回去吧！马上回到伦敦去。 [07:09.095]I can not tell you why，but please do what I ask you，
我不能告诉您缘由，可是请照我说的去做， [07:12.511]and never come near the moor again．
千万不要再靠近沼地了。 [07:15.042]But my brother is coming．Not a word to him．’
但是，我哥哥来了。对他什么也别说。” [07:18.899]Stapleton had caught the butterfly，
斯台普顿已抓到了那只蝴蝶， [07:21.852]and was walking bath to us．
正向我们这边走回来。 [07:23.819]‘Hello，my dear，’he said to his sister， “
你好，我亲爱的，”他对他妹妹说道， [07:28.248]but it seemed to me that his voice was not completely friendly．
可是就我看来他的语气并不怎么友好。 [07:32.037]‘I see that you two have already introduced yourselves．’ “
我看得出来你们俩已经做过自我介绍了。” [07:35.862]‘Yes，’she said．
“是啊，”她说道。 [07:39.003]‘I was telling Sir Henry that it was rather late in the year for him to see the true beauty of the moor．’ “
我正和亨利爵士说，他来得太晚了，已经看不到沼地的真正美丽之处了。 [07:45.011]” [07:45.214]‘I am sorry，’I said． “
我很抱歉，”我说道。 [07:49.636]‘You have made a mistake．I'm not Sir Henry． “
您弄错了。我不是亨利爵士。 [07:51.592]I am a friend who is visiting him，and my name is Dr Watson．’
我是来拜访他的一位朋友，我是华生医生。” [07:57.606]Miss Stapleton was clearly angry with herself．
斯台普顿小姐显然对自己很懊恼。 [08:01.872]‘I'm sorry，’ she said． “
我很抱歉，”她说道。 [08:04.403]‘Please forget what I said． “
请忘掉我所说的话。 [08:06.828]But do come with us to our house．’
可是，您一定得和我们一道去屋里坐坐。” [08:09.548]The house was lonely and rather grim．
这所房屋既偏僻又相当阴森。 [08:13.307]I wondered why the two of them had come to live so far away from anyone else．
我纳闷他们俩为何到这种与他人相隔甚远的地方来居住。 [08:18.534]Stapleton seemed to know what I was thinking，and said：
斯台普顿似乎知道我在想些什么，于是便说道： [08:22.299]‘You may think this a lonely，strange place to live， “
您可能认为这儿要住人的话偏僻和奇特了些， [08:26.443]but the moors are very interesting，and we enjoy it here．
可是这些沼地相当有趣，我们在这儿过得也很快活。 [08:29.997]I owned a school in the north of England，
我曾在英格兰北部办过一所学校， [08:33.538]but I had to close it．
但是后来被迫关闭了。 [08:35.500]I miss the boys and girls but thefe is plenty to do here，
我很怀念那些孩子们，但在此处有许多事情都有待去做 [08:39.580]and we have good neighbours．
而且我们还有很好的邻居们。 [08:41.105]I hope Sir Henry will become one of tnem．
我希望亨利爵士也会成为其中的一员。 [08:44.177]May I visit the Hall this afternoon to meet him，do you think？’
您认为我今天下午可否冒昧地去庄园拜访一下他呢？” [08:48.537]‘I'm sure he will be very pleased to meet you，’I said． “
我现在得回庄园去了，我还打算立刻告诉他这个消息。” [08:52.725]‘I must go back to the Hall now，and I shall tell him immediately．’ “
我敢说他一定会高兴见到您的，”我说道。 [08:56.507]I said goodbye to the Stapletons，
我与斯台普顿兄妹道了别， [09:00.298]and continued on the path back to the Hall．
继续沿着回庄园的那条路向前走。 [09:03.115]I had been walking for only a few minutes when I was surprised to see Miss Stapleton sitting on a rock ahead of me．
没走几分钟便惊奇地看到斯台普顿小姐正坐在我前边的一块岩石上。 [09:10.514]She was breathing quickly，
她呼吸急促， [09:12.614]and I realized she had run by a quicker way to get ahead of me．
我意识到她是为了赶在我前面而抄近路跑来的。 [09:16.539]‘Dr Watson，’she said． “
华生医生，”她说道。 [09:19.919]‘I want to say sorry for the mistake I made． “
因我所犯的错误，我想向您致以深深的歉意。 [09:23.195]I thought you were Sir Henry．
我竟把您当成亨利爵士了。 [09:25.552]Please forget what I said．
请忘掉我说过的话。 [09:27.406]I did not mean you were in danger．
我当时并不是说您有危险。 [09:30.335]Now I must go，or my brother will miss me．’
现在我得走了，否则的话我哥哥就要挂念我了。” [09:34.423]‘I cannot forget your words，Miss Stapleton，’I said．‘If Sir Henry is in danger，I must tell him．’ [09:41.714]
“我不会忘记您的话语的，斯台普顿小姐，”我说道。“如果亨利爵士有危险的话，那我就得告诉他。” [09:42.644]‘You know the story of the Hound？’she asked me． “
您知道那个猎犬的故事吧？”她对我问道。 [09:46.623]‘Yes，but I do not believe it，’I replied． “
知道，但是我并不相信它，”我应答道。 [09:50.931]‘But I think it's true，’she said． “
可是我认为它是真实的，”她说道。 [09:54.276]‘Please persuade Sir Henry to leave this place． “
请劝说亨利爵士离开这个地方。 [09:57.355]So many of his family have died here mysteriously．
他家族中的那么多人都在这儿神秘地死去了。 [10:00.757]He must not put his life in danger by staying here．’
他不应该因呆在这儿而让自己冒生命危险。” [10:04.210]‘Sir Henry won't leave this place without a real reason，’I said． “
没有真正的理由的话亨利爵士是不会离开此地的，”我说道。 [10:08.869]‘I can't give you a real reason．I don't know anything for certain．’ “
我给不出真正的理由。我并非确切地知道某些事情。” [10:13.316]‘One more question，Miss Stapleton，’I said． “
还有一个问题，斯台普顿小姐，”我说道。 [10:17.087]‘The story of the Hound is well known． “
猎犬的故事是众所周知的。 [10:20.809]Why didn't you want your brother to hear what you said？’
您为何不愿让您哥哥听到您所说的话呢？” [10:23.723]‘My brother wants the head of the Baskerville family to live in the Hall，’she said． “
我哥哥想让巴斯克维尔家族的主人在这个庄园里住下来，”她说道。 [10:29.053]‘He wants Sir Henry to continue the good work that Sir Charles began． “
他想叫亨利爵士把查尔斯爵士开创的慈善工作继续下去。 [10:34.262]He doesn't want Sir Henry to go and live in another place．
他不想让亨利爵士去别处居住。 [10:37.044]So he doesn't want me to talk about the Hound．
因此他不想让我谈论猎犬的事情。 [10:40.659]I must go now，or my brother will guess I have been speaking to you．Goodbye！’
我现在得走了，否则的话我哥哥就会猜到我是在同您谈话了。再见！” [10:46.512]She turned and went back towards her house，
她转身往回走去， [10:51.207]and I walked on to Baskerville Hall．
我便继续向巴斯克维尔庄园走去。
