Kasia stands in line for the cable car. It goes up the mountain. At the top, there is a famous view. She waits for ten minutes.
卡西娅排队等缆车。缆车会开上山。山顶有一处著名的风景。她等了十分钟。
The red car is small. Kasia gets in. An old man gets in too. A little girl and her father come in last. The door closes.
红色的车厢很小。卡西娅上了车。一位老先生也上来了。一个小女孩和她爸爸最后进来。门关上了。
"Hello," says the old man. "My name is Hiro."
“你好，”老先生说，“我叫广。”
"I am Kasia," she says. "Nice to meet you."
“我是卡西娅，”她说，“很高兴认识你。”
The car leaves the station. It goes up slowly. The town gets small. The river looks like a blue string. The little girl puts her hands on the glass.
缆车离开了车站。它慢慢地往上升。小镇变得越来越小。河看起来像一根蓝色的细绳。小女孩把双手贴在玻璃上。
"Look, Papa!" she says. "The cars are like toys!"
“爸爸，你看！”她说，“那些汽车像玩具一样！”
Her father laughs. "Yes, they are."
她爸爸笑了。“是啊，真的像。”
Halfway up, the car shakes a little. Then it stops. Nobody speaks. The wind moves the car from side to side.
爬到半山腰，车厢轻轻晃了一下。然后它停住了。没有人说话。风吹得车厢左右摇摆。
"Why are we not moving?" the girl asks.
“我们为什么不动了？”女孩问。
Her father looks at his phone. "There is no signal," he says. He looks nervous.
她爸爸看了看手机。“没有信号，”他说。他看起来有点紧张。
Hiro points to a small speaker on the wall. "Listen," he says.
广指着墙上的一个小喇叭。“听，”他说。
A kind voice speaks. "Hello, everyone. The cable car stops for a short time. It is a check. Please wait. Everything is fine. We go again in twenty minutes."
一个亲切的声音响起来。“大家好。缆车暂时停一小会儿。这是例行检查。请稍等。一切正常。二十分钟后我们继续运行。”
The father sits down. The little girl looks at her shoes.
爸爸坐了下来。小女孩低头看着自己的鞋。
"I do not like this," she says quietly.
“我不喜欢这样，”她小声说。
Kasia thinks for a moment. She opens her bag. She has a bag of nuts and a map. "Do you like games?" she asks the girl.
卡西娅想了一会儿。她打开包。包里有一袋坚果和一张地图。“你喜欢玩游戏吗？”她问女孩。
"Yes."
“喜欢。”
"Good. This is the Colour Game. I say a colour. You look outside and find it. Then you tell me."
“好。这个游戏叫颜色游戏。我说一种颜色，你往外面找，找到了就告诉我。”
"Green!" says the girl. She points. "The trees are green!"
“绿色！”女孩说。她指着外面。“树是绿色的！”
"Yes! Now blue."
“对！现在是蓝色。”
"The river! And the sky!"
“河！还有天空！”
Hiro joins the game. "Yellow," he says. They all look. Far below, a small farm has yellow flowers around it.
广也加入了游戏。“黄色，”他说。大家都看出去。很远的下方，一座小农场周围开着黄色的花。
"I see it!" the girl shouts. Her voice is not small now.
“我看到了！”女孩喊道。她的声音现在一点也不小了。
They play for ten minutes. They find pink, white, orange, and black. The father laughs and finds grey for the last colour. Kasia shares her nuts. The girl eats them one by one.
他们玩了十分钟。他们找到了粉色、白色、橙色和黑色。爸爸笑着找到了最后一种颜色，灰色。卡西娅把坚果分给大家。女孩一颗一颗地吃着。
Then Hiro says, "Now look up."
然后广说：“现在往上看。”
A big bird flies near the car. It has long, wide wings. It moves slowly in the wind. Nobody speaks. The bird turns once and goes down to the valley.
一只大鸟飞到缆车附近。它的翅膀又长又宽。它在风中缓缓地飞。没有人说话。那只鸟转了一圈，朝山谷飞去了。
"What is that?" the girl whispers.
“那是什么？”女孩小声问。
"An eagle," says Hiro. "I come here every year. Today I see one from the car. It is my first time."
“是一只鹰，”广说，“我每年都来这里。今天我在车厢里看到了一只。这是第一次。”
"We are lucky, then," says the father.
“那我们真幸运，”爸爸说。
"Yes," says Hiro. "Maybe the cable car stops for us."
“是啊，”广说，“也许缆车是为我们停下来的。”
The car shakes again. Then it moves. Everyone cheers. The girl claps her hands. The car climbs higher, and the top station comes closer.
车厢又晃了一下。然后它动了。大家都欢呼起来。女孩拍着手。缆车爬得更高了，山顶的车站越来越近。
At the top, the door opens. Cold, clean air comes in. The girl runs out first. Her father follows her.
到了山顶，门开了。冰凉清新的空气吹了进来。女孩第一个跑出去。她爸爸跟在后面。
Kasia and Hiro walk slowly to the view. The valley lies below them, green and blue and gold.
卡西娅和广慢慢走向观景处。山谷在他们脚下展开，有绿色、蓝色，还有金色。
"Do you go down by cable car too?" Hiro asks.
“你也坐缆车下山吗？”广问。
"Yes," says Kasia.
“是的，”卡西娅说。
"Then I buy you tea first. And after that, we play the Colour Game again."
“那我先请你喝茶。喝完以后，我们再玩一次颜色游戏。”
