10、起来直扑向那个人.那人一把抓住了巴克，突然巴克就被仰面朝天摔在地上，舌头也被拽了出来.过了好一会儿他都动弹不得，于是两个人轻而易举地把他送上了火车。 When Buck woke up, the train was still moving The man was sitting and watching him， but Buck was too quick for him and he bit the mans hand hardThen the rope was pulled again and Buck had to let go 当巴克醒过来的时候，火车仍然在开。那人坐在那儿注视着他
