An Expedition
Half an hour before daybreak three of the boys assembled,as they agreed,near the old bridge.The fourth,a boy by the name of Tolly,had not turned up.His absence did not greatly surprise the others.They knew that his mother did not want him to come on this expedition into the forest.
Charles,who was the oldest and their accepted leader,waded downstream to the place where their boat was tied up in the shelter of some overhanging bushes.Then he rowed the boat back to the shallow water near the bridge,where the boys loaded it with the provisions,blankets and other things which they were taking on their journey.
Dawn was just breaking as they climbed into their boat and pushed off from the bank.A swift current carried them downstream,so there was no need to row.They took it in turns to keep the boat in the centre of the river.Three hours later they entered the forest where they intended to spend the next few days.
“Let's go ashore now and make some tea,”suggested Charles.“No one will see us here.”
It was forbidden to light fires in the forest,but people rarely came this way.
While Charles tied the boat up,the other two boys set about gathering wood for a fire.When they came back,each with a large handful of sticks,they found Charles looking very worried.
“We haven't got any matches,” he announced gloomily.“Tolly was going to bring them.”
This was bad news.They were miles away now from the nearest shop.
一次探险
天刚刚过拂晓3个男孩就集合起来了,就在他们约定的地点,那座老桥附近.第4个名叫Tolly的男孩却没有出现.他的缺席并没有使其他人感到很大的意外.因为他们知道Tolly的妈妈不愿意让Tolly来参加这个森林探险.
Charles是这个小队里年纪最大而且最被认可的小首领.滠水到下游去找他们隐藏在灌木丛中的小船,然后他把小船划到一个离桥很近的浅滩上.男孩们装上了食物,药品,毯子和一些其他东西以后,便开始了他们的旅程.
他们爬上船离开浅滩时刚刚破晓.水流带着他们向下游走,所以他们并不用去划船.男孩门轮流把船保持在小河正中间.3小时后,他们进入了森林,这正是他们打算留下来过几天的己方.
"上岸弄点茶喝吧."Charles建议:"没人会看见我们在这里."
这里本来是禁止烟火的,但是很少有人来到在这里.
Charles把船拴住了,其他的2个男孩正忙着收集木头来点个火.他们回来时,每人手里都抱了一大把树枝.他们发现Charles看起来有点焦虑不安.
"我们没有带火柴来啊"Charles沮丧的说到:"本来是该Tolly带来的."
这可是个坏消息.最近的商店都离他们有几英里路呢.
