3、he snow was beginning to thaw. Bits of it dropped from the branches of the trees and made little holes in the softening snowbanks below. At noon all the big icicles (冰柱) along the eaves of the little house quivered and sparkled in the sunshine, and drops of water hung trembling at their tips.Pa said
4、 he must go to town to trade the furs of the wild animals he had been trapping all winter. So one evening he made a big bundle of them. There were so many furs that when they were packed tightly and tied together they made a bundle almost as big as Pa. The setting-out morningVery early one morning P
5、a strapped (用皮绳捆住) the bundle of furs on his shoulders, and started to walk to town. There were so many furs to carry that he could not take his gun.Ma was worried, but Pa said that by starting before sun-up and walking very fast all day he could get home before dark.The nearest town was far away. L
6、aura and Mary had never seen a town. They had never seen a store. They had never seen even two houses standing together. But they knew that in a town there were many houses, and a store full of candy, calico (印花布)and other wonderful things - powder, and salt, and store sugar.They knew that Pa would
7、trade his furs to the storekeeper for beautiful things from town, and all day they were expecting the presents he would bring them. When the sun sank low above the treetops they began to watch eagerly for Pa. The breathtaking nightThe sun sank out of sight, the woods grew dark, and he did not come.
8、Ma started supper and set the table, but he did not come. It was time to do the chores, and still he had not come.Ma said that Laura might come with her while she milked the cow. Laura could carry the lantern.Laura was proud to be helping Ma with the milking, and she carried the lantern very careful
9、ly. Its sides were of tin, with places cut in them for the candle-light to shine through.When Laura walked behind Ma on the path to the barn, the little bits of candle-light from the lantern leaped all around her on the snow. The night was not yet quite dark. The woods were dark, but there was a gra
10、y light on the snowy path, and in the sky there were a few faint stars. The stars did not look as warm and bright as the little lights that came from the lantern.Laura was surprised to see the dark shape of Sukey, the brown cow, standing at the barnyard gate. Ma was surprised, too.It was too early i
11、n the spring for Sukey to be let out in the Big Woods to eat grass. She lived in the barn. But sometimes on warm days Pa left the door of her stall (畜栏) open so she could come into the barnyard. Now Ma and Laura saw her behind the bars, waiting for them.Ma went up to the gate, and pushed against it
12、to open it. But it did not open very far, because there was Sukey, standing against it. Ma said, “Sukey, get over!“ She reached across the gate and slapped Sukeys shoulder.Just then one of the dancing little bits of light from the lantern jumped between the bars of the gate, and Laura saw long, shag
13、gy, black fur, and two little, glittering eyes.Sukey had thin, short, brown fur. Sukey had large, gentle eyes.Ma said, “Laura, walk back to the house.“So Laura turned around and began to walk toward the house. Ma came behind her. When they had gone part way, Ma snatched her up, lantern and all, and
14、ran. Ma ran with her into the house, and slammed the door.Then Laura said, “Ma, was it a bear?“Yes, Laura, “Ma said. “It was a bear.“Laura began to cry. She hung on to Ma and sobbed, “Oh, will he eat Sukey?“No,“ Ma said, hugging her. “Sukey is safe in the barn. Think, Laura - all those big, heavy lo
15、gs in the barn walls. And the door is heavy and solid, made to keep bears out. No, the bear cannot get in and eat Sukey.“Laura felt better then. “But he could have hurt us, couldnt he?“ she asked.“He didnt hurt us,“ Ma said. “You were a good girl, Laura, to do exactly as I told you, and to do it qui
16、ckly, without asking why.“Ma was trembling, and she began to laugh a little. “To think,“ she said, “Ive slapped a bear!“Then she put supper on the table for Laura and Mary. Pa had not come yet. He didnt come. Laura and Mary were undressed, and they said their prayers and went into bed.Ma sat by the
17、lamp, mending one of Pas shirts. The house seemed cold and still and strange, without Pa.Laura listened to the wind in the Big Woods. All around the house the wind went crying as though it were lost in the dark and the cold. The wind sounded frightened.Ma finished mending the shirt. Laura saw her fo
18、ld it slowly and carefully. She smoothed it with her hand. Then she did a thing she had never done before. She went to the door and pulled the leather latch-string through its hole in the door, so that nobody could get in from outside unless she lifted the latch. She came and took Carrie, sleeping,
19、out of the big bed.She saw that Laura and Mary were still awake, and she said to them: “Go to sleep, girls. Everything is all right. Pa will be here in the morning.“ Then she went back to her rocking chair and sat there rocking gently and holding Baby Carrie in her arms. She was sitting up late, wai
20、ting for Pa, and Laura and Mary meant to stay awake, too, till he came. But at last they went to sleep. The return of PaIn the morning Pa was there. He had brought candy for Laura and Mary, and two pieces of pretty calico to make them each a dress. Marys was a china-blue pattern on a white ground, a
21、nd Lauras was dark red with little golden-brown dots on it. Ma had calico for a dress, too; it was brown, with a big, feathery white pattern all over it.They were all happy because Pa had got such good prices for his furs that he could afford to get them such beautiful presents.The tracks of the big
22、 bear were all around the barn, and there were marks of his claws on the walls. But Sukey and the horses were safe inside.
