1、Adventures of Huckleberry FinnCHAPTER I.YOU dont know about me without you have read a book by the name of The Adventures of Tom Sawyer; but that aint no matter. That book was made by Mr. Mark Twain, and he told the truth, mainly. There was things which he stretched, but mainly he told the truth. Th

Aunt Polly-Toms Aunt Polly, she is-and Mary, and the Widow Douglas is all told about in that book, which is mostly a true book, with some stretchers, a
3、s I said before.Now the way that the book winds up is this: Tom and me found the money that the robbers hid in the cave, and it made us rich. We got six thousand dollars apiece-all gold. It was an awful sight of money when it was piled up. Well, Judge Thatcher he took it and put it out at interest,
4、and it fetched us a dollar a day apiece all the year round- more than a body could tell what to do with. The Widow Douglas she took me for her son, and allowed she would sivilize me; but it was rough living in the house all the time, considering how dismal regular and decent the widow was in all her
5、 ways; and so when I couldnt stand it no longer I lit out. I got into my old rags and my sugar-hogshead again, and was free and satisfied. But Tom Sawyer he hunted me up and said he was going to start a band of robbers, and I might join if I would go back to the widow and be respectable. So I went b
6、ack.The widow she cried over me, and called me a poor lost lamb, and she called me a lot of other names, too, but she never meant no harm by it. She put me in them new clothes again, and I couldnt do nothing but sweat and sweat, and feel all cramped up. Well, then, the old thing commenced again. The
7、 widow rung a bell for supper, and you had to come to time. When you got to the table you couldnt go right to eating, but you had to wait for the widow to tuck down her head and grumble a little over the victuals, though there warnt really anything the matter with them,-that is, nothing only everyth
8、ing was cooked by itself. In a barrel of odds and ends it is different; things get mixed up, and the juice kind of swaps around, and the things go better.After supper she got out her book and learned me about Moses and the Bulrushers, and I was in a sweat to find out all about him; but by and by she
9、 let it out that Moses had been dead a considerable long time; so then I didnt care no more about him, because I dont take no stock in dead people.Pretty soon I wanted to smoke, and asked the widow to let me. But she wouldnt. She said it was a mean practice and wasnt clean, and I must try to not do
10、it any more. That is just the way with some people. They get down on a thing when they dont know nothing about it. Here she was a-bothering about Moses, which was no kin to her, and no use to anybody, being gone, you see, yet finding a power of fault with me for doing a thing that had some good in i
11、t. And she took snuff, too; of course that was all right, because she done it herself.第 2 页 共 287 页http:/ 原版英语阅读网Her sister, Miss Watson, a tolerable slim old maid, with goggles on, had just come to live with her, and took a set at me now with a spelling- book. She worked me middling hard for about
12、an hour, and then the widow made her ease up. I couldnt stood it much longer. Then for an hour it was deadly dull, and I was fidgety. Miss Watson would say, “Dont put your feet up there, Huckleberry;“ and “Dont scrunch up like that, Huckleberry-set up straight;“ and pretty soon she would say, “Dont
13、gap and stretch like that, Huckleberry-why dont you try to behave?“ Then she told me all about the bad place, and I said I wished I was there. She got mad then, but I didnt mean no harm. All I wanted was to go somewheres; all I wanted was a change, I warnt particular. She said it was wicked to say w
14、hat I said; said she wouldnt say it for the whole world; she was going to live so as to go to the good place. Well, I couldnt see no advantage in going where she was going, so I made up my mind I wouldnt try for it. But I never said so, because it would only make trouble, and wouldnt do no good.Now
15、she had got a start, and she went on and told me all about the good place. She said all a body would have to do there was to go around all day long with a harp and sing, forever and ever. So I didnt think much of it. But I never said so. I asked her if she reckoned Tom Sawyer would go there, and she
16、 said not by a considerable sight. I was glad about that, because I wanted him and me to be together.Miss Watson she kept pecking at me, and it got tiresome and lonesome. By and by they fetched the niggers in and had prayers, and then everybody was off to bed. I went up to my room with a piece of ca
17、ndle, and put it on the table. Then I set down in a chair by the window and tried to think of something cheerful, but it warnt no use. I felt so lonesome I most wished I was dead. The stars were shining, and the leaves rustled in the woods ever so mournful; and I heard an owl, away off, who-whooing
18、about somebody that was dead, and a whippowill and a dog crying about somebody that was going to die; and the wind was trying to whisper something to me, and I couldnt make out what it was, and so it made the cold shivers run over me. Then away out in the woods I heard that kind of a sound that a gh
19、ost makes when it wants to tell about something thats on its mind and cant make itself understood, and so cant rest easy in its grave, and has to go about that way every night grieving. I got so down-hearted and scared I did wish I had some company. Pretty soon a spider went crawling up my shoulder,
20、 and I flipped it off and it lit in the candle; and before I could budge it was all shriveled up. I didnt need anybody to tell me that that was an awful bad sign and would fetch me some bad luck, so I was scared and most shook the clothes off of me. I got up and turned around in my tracks three time
21、s and crossed my breast every time; and then I tied up a little lock of my hair with a thread to keep witches away. But I hadnt no confidence. You do that when youve lost a horseshoe that youve found, instead of nailing it up over the door, but I hadnt ever heard anybody say it was any way to keep o
22、ff bad luck when youd killed a spider.I set down again, a-shaking all over, and got out my pipe for a smoke; for the house was all as still 第 3 页 共 287 页http:/ 原版英语阅读网as death now, and so the widow wouldnt know. Well, after a long time I heard the clock away off in the town go boom-boom-boom-twelve
23、licks; and all still again-stiller than ever. Pretty soon I heard a twig snap down in the dark amongst the trees- something was a stirring. I set still and listened. Directly I could just barely hear a “me-yow! me-yow!“ down there. That was good! Says I, “me-yow! me-yow!“ as soft as I could, and the
24、n I put out the light and scrambled out of the window on to the shed. Then I slipped down to the ground and crawled in among the trees, and, sure enough, there was Tom Sawyer waiting for me.
