18-Chapter 9：Missing Face 第九章：消失的脸庞 下 文章：(中文意思请听节目) Coco crawled away，looking for a safe place to take a nap. She got into a small storage space filled with a mixture of stuff including spades, plastic tubes, pipes and tubs. Coco huddled inside a bucket underneath some nylon knots. She quickly fell into sleep, landing in a dream about her white paw turning black. Two days later, the ship reached a quiet bay surrounded by rangs of lofty mountains covered with subtropical woods. Following behind the captain without being noticed, Coco got off the ship at an inlet and climbed uphill into a forest-like field. There was a feeling of tranquility even though a waterfall in the distance poured into a valley from the north, creating a beautiful scenery beyond description. Standing at a high-altitude site on the summit of a mountain, Captain Button finally stopped there. Coco dashed into the nearby thick bush, wondering whether she would be noticed. Looking at a giant stone on the ground, Captain Button pondered without any emotion showing on his grim face. Then he suddenly thrust his sword deeply in to the stone. The captain expressed to the sword that no one should be able to pull the sword out unless it would be touched by the big black button, from which the sword would recognize the dead souls. He swore to come back and reclaim the sword. The captain then stepped back and put the black button underneath his left foot. Using the black magic, he turned himself into a stone figure standing next to the sword. Captain Button became dead without a traditional funeral and a grave. After a while, Coco came out of the bush to take a closer look. Hmm? Captain Button’s stone face was missing? Without looking further, Coco started to run down the mountain, feeling strongly about the captain’s remaining influence. 18-雅思词汇：881--930（中文意思请见节目） 56 nap; 57 space; 58 spacecraft; 59 mixture; 60 spade; 61 plastic; 62 tube; 63 pipe; 64 pipeline; 65 tub; 66 huddle; 67 bucket; 68 nylon; 69 knot; 70 bay; 71 range; 72 lofty; 73 loft; 74 subtropical; 75 inlet; 76 uphill; 77 field; 78 fieldwork; 79 tranquility; 80 tranquil; 81 pour; 82 scenery; 83 description; 84 descriptive; 85 altitude; 86 latitude; 87 longitude; 88 summit; 89 dash; 90 bush; 91 ponder; 92 emotion; 93 grim; 94 thrust; 95 swear; 96 figure; 97 figurehead; 98 traditional; 99 funeral; 100 grave; 101 gravity; 102 remain; 103 influence; 104 influential;
