“The Widow Douglas took me as her son and wanted to sivilize me; but it was hard living in the house all the time, considering how dismal (阴郁的) regular and decent (得体的) the widow was in all her ways; and so when I couldn’t stand it no longer I lit out. I got into my old clothes and my sugar-hogshead (大桶) again, and was free and satisfied. But Tom Sawyer he hunted me up and said he was going to start a band of robbers (强盗), and I might join if I would go back to the widow and be good. So I went back.”
