Alec Ramsey had thought a sea voyage to visit his uncle in India would be a terrific adventure. Was he wrong! "No one to talk to but grownups and nothing to look at but water. Boy, I wish something exciting would happen." Alec got his wish the day the ship stopped at a tiny Arabian port.

亞歷克·拉姆齊認(rèn)為去印度看望他的叔叔是一次了不起的冒險(xiǎn)。他錯(cuò)了嗎!“除了大人沒人說(shuō)話，除了水沒什么可看的。孩子，我希望會(huì)發(fā)生一些令人興奮的事情。”亞歷克在船停在一個(gè)小小的阿拉伯港口的那天實(shí)現(xiàn)了他的愿望。

A black stallion was brought aboard, as strong and fierce as a desert storm. Alec loved horses and watched, fascinated, as the proud stallion fought against the men holding him. He felt sorry for the valiant animal. "A beautiful horse like that should be running free, not locked in a tiny cabin."

一匹黑色的種馬被帶上了船，像沙漠風(fēng)暴一樣強(qiáng)壯和兇猛。亞歷克喜歡馬，著迷地看著那匹驕傲的種馬與牽著他的人搏斗。他為這只勇敢的動(dòng)物感到難過。"像那樣美麗的馬應(yīng)該自由奔跑，而不是被鎖在小木屋里."
