两片海之间的塔

波莉回到了城里。山上的教堂旁边有一座高高的钟楼。它是照着威尼斯一座有名的塔建的。它建于四百多年前。

Polly went back to town. On the hill stands a tall bell tower next to the church. It is a copy of the famous tower in Venice. It was built more than four hundred years ago.

塔里有一百四十六级木台阶。波莉一级一级地跳上去。顶上挂着大钟。风里有盐的味道。

Inside there are one hundred and forty-six wooden steps. Polly hopped up every step. At the top hung the big bells. The wind smelled of salt.

小城在她下面。橙色的屋顶一直延伸到海边。白色的广场像一个小月亮一样发亮。一边只有蓝色的大海。

The town lay below her. Orange roofs ran down to the sea. The white square shone like a little moon. On one side there was only blue sea.

在另一边，很远的地方，盐田闪着白光。一边是水，一边是盐。海鸥说得对。这座城是盐建起来的。

On the other side, far away, the salt pans shone white. Water on one side, salt on the other. The gull was right. Salt built this town.
