' I wish we all had beautiful wings to fly with, ' Anthea said.

“我希望我们都有美丽的、可以用以飞翔的翅膀，” 西娅说。

" Yes, I wish you 'd come out, " Anthea said.

“是啊，我希望你出来。” 西娅说。

'Yes, but we can not tell you about him, ' said Anthea, thinking of the Psammead.

“是的，可我们不能告诉你他的事。”西娅说，想起了赛米德。

But Anthea spent a lot of time thinking about what to wish for.

可西娅花了很多时间想她该许些什么愿。

Anthea asked Martha to bring their lunch out there.

西娅要马莎把饭拿到外边。

Anthea said, and she held out her arms to him.

西娅说着并向他伸出手臂。

The children stood there for a second, and then Anthea turned to speak to the others. But they were not there!

孩子们站了一下，然后西娅转身和其他的孩子说话。可他们不在了！

The care that went into every frame from the strict color palette to the cinematographers limited use of zoom Anthea Silbert.

每帧画面都倾注了大量心血，从严格的色彩搭配到摄像师西娅·西尔伯特有限的使用变焦镜头。

But it was a very hot day. Baby went to sleep and Robert， Cyril， and Jane sat down to rest， but Anthea went on working on the hole.

别的孩于同意了，他们就都起劲地挖起沙来。可天气很热。小弟弟睡觉了，罗伯特、西尔和简坐下来休息，可西娅继续挖着洞。

Anthea went to talk to a man who had a horse and cart, and the others waited.

西娅走过和一个有马套二轮单马车的人谈起来，别的孩子等着。

When it saw them, it tried to get away, but Anthea put her arms round it.

看见他们时它想走开，但西娅搂住它。

Anthea did not want to steal anything，of course， so she flew down and pushed some money into his pocket.

他们正要吃完的时候，突然看见一个非常生气的小矮胖子。他正急急忙忙地在树间穿梭。是他的李子，可怜的人认为是村的孩子们在偷他的李子。但是当他看见这几个孩子长着翅膀时，他张大了嘴巴，脸色苍白。西娅当然不愿偷东西，所以她飞下来把一些钱塞在他兜。

'Well, we'll tell Mother about the Psammead, and she'll give back the jewels when they come, ' Anthea said.

“嗯，我们告诉妈妈赛米德的事，他们来时她会把珠宝还给他们的。”西娅说。

' Yes， but we can't tell you about him，' said Anthea， think-ing of the Psammead. ' We really are very sorry， and please，can we go home now？ '

" 是的，可我们不能告诉你他的事。" 西娅说，想起了赛米德。" 我们真的非常抱歉；还有，请问，我们可以回家了吗？"

" Oh, please. Just one more, " Anthea cried.

“噢，求求你了。就再来实现一个愿望吧。”西娅叫道。

And the day after that， their Uncle Richard came and took them out，so they did not see the Psammead for two days. But Anthea spent a lot of time think-ing about what to wish for.

第二天外面很湿。雨下了一天，孩子们不能看赛米德。他们呆在家给母亲写信。可谁也没把赛米德的事告诉她。又过了一天，他们的理查德叔叔来了并带他们出了，所以他们两天没见赛米德。可西娅花了很多时间想她该许些什么愿。
