CHAPTER FOUR: The Mermaid's Lagoon
One summer evening Peter, Wendy, John, Michael and the Lost Boys go to the Mermaid's Lagoon.
Beautiful mermaids live here and they are Peter's friends.
They swim and play in the blue lagoon.
Then they sit on Marooner's Rock to comb their long hair.
They sit in the sun and laugh.
The children like the mermaids and John says, 'I want to catch one!'
He tries, but the mermaid jumps into the water.
Peter says, 'It is very difficult to catch a mermaid.'
Suddenly someone says, 'Look, the pirates are coming!'
A small boat with two pirates is coming to the lagoon.
John,Michael and the Lost Boys jump off the rock and swim away.
But Wendy stays with Peter.
They hide behind the rock.
Peter sees Tiger Lily.
She is sitting in the small boat.
Poor Tiger Lily is a prisoner of the pirates.
'Let's leave her on this rock. When the sea rises, she will die!' says Smee.
The two pirates laugh.
It is already night and it is very dark.
Peter wants to save Tiger Lily and thinks of something intelligent.
He imitates Captain Hook's voice and says, 'Cut the ropes and let her go! Do as I say, you idiots! Let her go!'
The two pirates are amazed.
'Can you hear Hook's voice?' asks Smee.
'Yes,but what do we do?' asks Starkey.
'We must obey him and cut the ropes,' says Smee.
They cut the ropes and Tiger Lily is free.
She quickly jumps into the water and swims away.
Captain Hook sees everything and he is furious.
'That horrid Peter Pan! This time I must attack him,' he says.
He swims to the rock and fights with Peter.
It is a long fight.
The Captain hurts Peter with his hook, but Peter fights courageously.
At last, Peter wins the fight and Hook swims back to the Jolly Roger.
Peter is now alone on the rock with Wendy.
'The sea is rising and we are in great danger here. We must leave this rock,' says Peter.
'Oh,Peter, I am very tired and I cannot swim or fly.'
He sees a big kite with a long tail.
It is flying slowly over the lagoon.
He takes the tail of the kite and says, 'Wendy, hold on to this tail and fly away with the kite.'
Wendy flies away.
The sea is rising.
'I must fly away,' Peter thinks.
When he gets home everyone is happy to see him especially Wendy.

第四章：美人鱼的泻湖
一个夏天的晚上，彼得、温迪、约翰、迈克尔和迷路的男孩们去美人鱼泻湖。
美丽的美人鱼住在这里，它们是彼得的朋友。
他们在蓝色的泻湖里游泳和玩耍。
然后他们坐在流放者岩上梳理他们的长发。
他们坐在阳光下欢笑。
孩子们喜欢美人鱼，约翰说：“我想抓一只！”
他试了试，但是美人鱼跳进了水里。
彼得说：“要抓住美人鱼是非常困难的。”
突然有人说：“看，海盗来了！”
一艘小船载着两个海盗来到了泻湖。
约翰、迈克尔和迷路的男孩们跳下岩石游开了。
但是温迪和彼得呆在一起。
他们躲在岩石后面。
彼得看到了虎莉莉。
她正坐在小船上。
可怜的虎莉莉是海盗的俘虏。
“我们把她留在这块岩石上吧。等海水涨起来，她就死了！”斯密说。
两个海盗笑了。
已经是晚上了，天很黑。
彼得想救虎莉莉，想出了一个聪明的办法。
他模仿胡克船长的声音说：“割断绳子，放她走！照我说的做，你们这些白痴！放开她！”
两个海盗都惊呆了。
“你能听到胡克的声音吗？”斯密问。
“是的，但我们该怎么办呢？”斯塔奇问。
“我们必须服从他，割断绳子，”斯密说。
他们割断了绳子，虎莉莉自由了。
她迅速跳进水里，游走了。
虎克船长看到了这一切，非常愤怒。
“那个可怕的彼得·潘！”他说，“这次我必须攻击他。”
他游到岩石和彼得打架。
这是一场漫长的战斗。
船长用钩子刺伤了彼得，但彼得勇敢地反抗。
最后，彼得赢得了战斗，胡克游回了海盗船。
彼得现在和温迪单独在岩石上。
“海平面在上涨，我们在这里非常危险。我们必须离开这块岩石。”彼得说。
“哦，彼得，我很累，我不会游泳，也不会飞。”
他看到一只长尾巴的大风筝。
它正缓慢地飞过泻湖。
他抓住风筝的尾巴说：“温迪，抓住这条尾巴，带着风筝飞走。”
温迪飞走了。
海平面在上升。
“我必须飞走，”彼得想。
当他回家时，每个人都很高兴看到他，尤其是温迪。
