驼鹿moose[英][mu:s] [美][mus] 中英文故事：生命法则（6） 这是老科斯库什深刻的思考。他一生当中目睹了无数的事例:树液于早春渗出；如皮肤般柔嫩新鲜的绿叶生发;枯黄的树叶飘落。这就是生命的历程。 老科斯库什往火中又添了一根木柴，开始回忆往事。他曾经也是个了不起的首领，也见过食物丰饶、欢声笑语的年景:在那些年头，肚子填得鼓鼓的，食物多得都放坏了；猎物多得宰不完;女人们生出一群一群的孩子。当然也经历过大饥荒，肚子空空如也:那年头，没有鱼群，没有动物。 一连七个年头，动物都没有来。接着，他回忆起孩提时曾经亲眼见过驼鹿遭狼群捕杀的情景。当时是和他朋友青哈在一起。青哈后来死在了育空河。 He lowered his head to his chest and listened to the snow as his son This was a deep thought for old Koskoosh.

In this alone was all histo-He placed another stick on the fire and began to remember his past. He had been a great chief, too. He had seen days of much food and laughter： fat stomachs when food was left to rot and spoil ； times when they left animals women had many children. And he had seen days of no days when the fish did not come, and the animals were hard to find. For seven years the animals did not come.
