雪地里来了一群小画家How to Camp out 怎样在野外露营
Lead-in
Camping out is not in itlf a game,but it would be hard to imagine a more delightful way for people who enjoy going back to the heart of nature. 野营本身并不是一种游戏, 但对于一个喜欢回归大自然的人来说,我们很难想象有其它什么方式能让他们更开心了
Text课文.
1. Before going into camp there are many things for the camper to learn if he does not know how, and one of the things is how to make a fire. If one has matches, kindling and wood there is no trick in making a campfire, but there is a good trick in making a fire where there are no matches and the wood is green or wet.
在去野营之前,野营者要学很多东西---如果他们不知道怎么做的话,这其中就包括如何生火。如果一个人有火柴、火引和柴火的话,去点个火并不需要什么窍门。但是,如果在没有火柴,而且柴火也很青很湿的情况下,生火就要有点技巧了。
2. Our own Indians get fire by rotating a hard upright stick in a cup-shaped hollow of lighter wood, in which dry charcoal or the shavings of punk were placed. Cotton and any other substances that catch a flame easily would answer as well.This is getting fire by friction。
我们的印第安人,通过旋转一根垂直在杯状凹槽木头上的硬木棍来生火,凹槽边上放着干木炭或干木碎儿。当然,也可以是棉花和其它易燃物。这就是钻木取火。。
3. Every hunter in the West and among the Indians and Mexicans of two continents now carries a flint and steel, and a dry substance to catch and retain the spark. This substance with a full outfit can now be had in most stores that supply sporting goods, and every camper should have a supply.
现在,西方的的每个猎人和两个大大陆之间的印第安人和墨西哥人都用一个打火石和一些干燥的东西去点火,用它当火种。现在,这些东西和其它全套野营装备,在很多商店里都有卖,这些店通常卖一些体育用品和每个露营者必须的物品.
SHELTER住处.
4. Camps are either temporary, that is changed from day to day, or they are permanent and may be visited year after year, or they may be ud for a few weeks at a time. Temporary camps are the one
坚持的小故事s we are considering, and the can be elaborate or very, very simple. I prefer the latter, and I am sure the boys will agree with me.
营地可以是临时的,一天一换;也可以是长期的;又或许我们每一年都要来的;
再或者我们在一段时间内要住上一两个星期。临时训练营地是我们正在考虑的训练营,这些训练营可以是精心制作的,也可以是非常非常简单的。我选择后者,而且我也相信,男孩子们会同意我的看法。
5.During the autumn and when the weather is dry and the nights not too cool, the best way to camp is in the open, sleeping on beds of boughs, about a roaring fire, and with one blanket under and another over.在秋天天气很干燥,夜晚也不太冷,最好去找个开阔的地方野营,睡在树枝做成的床上,边上点个大火堆,然后在床上铺一张毯子,躺在上面,再盖一张毯子....
6. Small dog tents, like the ones our soldiers carried in the Civil War, are cheap and very convenient. Each man carried a ction, and two made a tent, into which two men crawled when it rained, but in dry weather they preferred to sleep in the open, even when it was freezing.

小帐蓬,像我们内战时的士兵带的那种,是既便宜又方便的.分两个人带,每个人都带一部分,在下雨的时候,人们在里面爬着行动,但是在晴朗的天气,即使天气很冷,他们也宁愿睡在帐蓬外面.
7. Shelters of boughs, arranged in an A-framed fashion from a ridge pole make good temporary shelters and are first rate as windbreaks at night.
用一些树枝排列在一根木脊柱上支成一个金字塔式的帐蓬,,是个很好的临时住所,防风能力也很好。
8. A shack built of crosd logs requires some time to build and some skill to make , but it is not beyond the reach of any boy who has en--- and who has not --- an old-fashioned log shanty.
要建一个由交叉原木做成的小棚屋需要一些时间和技巧。而这对于一个看过甚至没有看过古式小木屋的人来说也并不难。
IF LOST 要是迷路了
实现梦想
9. But all boys, even trained foresters, are apt to get lost in strange woods. Every one, however, should know what to do in such a circumstance. As a rule the denr growth of moss on trees is on the north side. This knowledge may help find the direction, but it is better to carry a small pocket compass.
几乎所有的男孩子,即使是被训练过的林务员,也很容易在陌生的森林里迷路。然后,在这种情况下,每个人都知道要做什么。根据一般规律,树上苔藓长得密集的地方是北面.这些知识也许能让我们
找到方向,不过最好还是带一个袖珍指南针吧。
10. When the sky is clear, the sun and the stars help to guide the cour, and if they are followed one is saved from traveling in a circle,as the lost are pretty sure to do in a den forest.
当天空很晴朗的时候,太阳和星星可以指明方向.如果在它们下面有个人在密林里迷路了,总在原地绕圈,那个迷路者更应该利用它们来找到方向了。
11. If twigs are broken from bushes they will rve to show the cour to tho out arching. A good plan is to follow down the cour of a stream, which always flows into a larger body of water and will lead to some abode. If a hill is accessible, the lay of the land may be had from its summit.
如果小树枝被从灌木丛中折断,它们将能帮助那些正在外出搜寻的人们指示出路线。一个很好的办法就是顺着细流而下,这细流通常会流进一些大的水域,而且会把人带到有人住的地方。如果有一座很容易就能爬上去的小山,我们就可以从山顶看到这个地方的形势。
12. In any event, should you be lost, do not get rattled. You will be misd in camp and a arch will be made by your friends. If you have to stay in the woods all night, make the best of it. Others have made the best of it by sleeping near the foot of a tree or beside a log. It will be more cheery if you can make a fire without danger to the woods.
决策机关
不管怎么样,如果你迷路了,不要惊慌。营地里将会有人想到你,你的朋友将会寻找你。如果你不得不在树林里过夜,那你就尽量好好过一夜吧。那些能好好过一夜的人,通常都是睡在树下或睡在一边木头边上。在对树林没有危害的情况下,你还可以点个火堆,这将更加惬意。
THE OUTFIT装备
13. Now the camping outfit, including enough provisions for the propod stay, must be carried, and unless the stay is to be short, a wagon or pack animals should be provided for this purpo. For a journey of ten miles or more I would not advi you to make the pack load more than two hundred pounds, though I have known mules to carry three hundred pounds at a pace of twenty miles a day over rough trails.
现在说说露营的一些装备,包括一些计划内停留而要用的物品一定要带上,不过除非驻扎时间很短,才可以提供一些动物驮运物品。如果行程有10英里或更多,我建议你不要让你的包裹超过200磅。尽管我知道一只骡子驮着300磅的包袱一天内能在崎岖的路上轻松的走20英里。
干旱区研究14. If the pack is heavy, it may be lightened by having each camper carry his own blankets in a roll, with the ca resting on the right shoulder. I would advi each to carry a canteen if there is danger of your being long away from good water.牛仔舞基本步
如果包袱太重了,叫每个露营者把他们的铺盖卷起挂在右肩上,也许这样能减轻负担,如果有离食用水很远的危险,我建议每个人带上一个水壶.
15.You should have the following articles: A long-handled frying pan, a broiler; a tin coffee pot; a long iron fork; a long iron spoon; some cheap tin cups, plates and spoons, and some forks and knives.
你应该有以下几款东西:一个长柄煎锅,一副烤烙用具,一个咖啡锡壶;一把长的铁叉子,一把长的铁勺子;和其它一些便宜的锡杯子,盘子和勺子,和一些刀叉.
16. Do not depend upon the fish and game for food supply, but take along some boneless bacon and fat pork, which are good for a relish with whatever fish or fresh meat you may cure. Then you should have some good ground coffee in a tightly clod box. Some tea in a screw-top glass prerve jar, sugar, salt, prepared flour, corn meal, rice, beans, oatmeal,condend milk, evaporated cream,crackers, and as much canned or dried fruits as you can transport without overloading --- the are not necessaries, but all of them will come handy.
不要依赖鱼和野味来供应食物,带一些去骨的咸肉和肥猪肉,把它跟你敢放心食用的鱼的其它鲜肉一起吃,会吃得更香。然后,你应该要用盒子装一些咖啡末,盖紧它。用拧盖式玻璃储存罐装一些茶叶、糖、盐、精面粉、玉米面、大米、豆子、燕麦片 , 炼乳、干乳酪、饼干,如果不会超载你就尽可
能多带一些水果罐头或果脯---这些都不是必须品,不过这些东西都是唾手可得的.徇私舞弊的读音
17. Worth Remembering. It is not well for a lot of boys, no matter how strong and intelligent, to go off camping unless one of them has had practical experience in that kind of life.
值得一提的是太多的男孩子一起去露营并不好,不管有多么强壮或聪明,除非他们其中有人有过野外露营的实战经验。
