Bradley







One night he had a dream. It came to him a week before one of the field trips he had planned. He dreamed he was leading his class along a country lane beside a churchyard. In his dream, Bradley told two of the boys to lead the way through the churchyard. He would walk at the other end of the line to keep the small children moving. But as they went through the churchyard, Bradley felt the ground shake. Then he heard a loud cracking and ripped sound. Then something huge and dark rushed towards him. It was a huge elm tree. It crashed down right on top of the line of children. Bradley was very upset by his dream. He thought he should cancel the trip. He told his class about the dream, but they laughed at him. And they did not want to call off the trip. Even the other teachers laughed at him and told him he should not spoil the children's fun. So Bradley agreed that they would go. "But you must promise," he told them, "to go only where I tell you to go."
一天晚上,他做了一个梦。这是在他安排了一次校外考察旅行之前一个星期发生的事。他梦见自己领着班上的学生走在一条乡间的小路上,边上就是教堂墓地。 在梦里,布雷德利让两个男孩带队穿过教堂墓地。他自己走在队伍的末尾,以便让小一些的孩子保持前进。然而,就在他们穿过教堂墓地的时候,布雷德利感到地面在震动。接着他听见了巨大的断裂声。然后,有个黑乎乎的庞然大物朝他砸过来。那是一棵巨大的榆树,正好兜头砸在孩子们的队伍上。 这个梦使布雷德利非常不安。他觉得应该取消这次外出。他把这个梦告诉了班上的学生,但是他们都觉得他很可笑,而且都不愿意取消这次旅行。甚至其他老师也笑话他,跟他说不应该让孩子们扫兴。于是布雷德利同意出行。“但是你们必须答应我,”他跟他们讲,“往哪儿走你们只能听我的。”
