Dressed up as Father Christmas, 他打扮成圣诞老人

he set off down the main street of the city, 骑着名叫江宝的小象

riding a baby elephant called Jumbo. 沿着城市的主干道出发了。

He should have known that the police would never allow this sort of thing. 他本该知道警察绝不会允许这种事。

A policeman approached Jimmy and told him he ought 一名警察走近吉米，告诉他

to have gone along a side street as Jumbo was holding up the traffic. 应该走小巷，因为江宝堵住了交通。

Though Jimmy agreed to go at once, 虽然吉米立刻同意

Jumbo refused to move. 但江宝就是不肯动。

Fifteen policemen had to push very hard to get him off the main street. 十五名警察费了很大劲才把它推离主干道。

So it was fortunate that we didn't have to carry him. 幸好我们不用抬它。

Of course, 当然

we should arrest him, 我们应该逮捕它

but as he has a good record, 但鉴于它表现良好

we shall let him off this time." 这次就放过它了。
