The house was quiet at 5 am and Tim’s mother was asdeep . Only the sound of the big freezer broke the quiet . He’d dreamt of the cave last night ? The purring (轻微颤动声) of the freezer had been the sea .
Tim pulled on a sweater and put some apples into his schoolbag . It was too early for breakfast . He’d eat after he’d been through the cave , sitting on the rocks and staring at the sea .
He wished he had a poper pack . His schoolbag would have to do . What else ? Sandwiches— but his mother might wake up if he started pulling out bread for sandwiches , she’d want to know why he had to leave so early . He settled for some biscuits , and left a note stuck to the table .
Gone to Michael’s Back tonight . Tim .
The sky was high and soft and light outside , though the sun still wasn’t up . Even the highway up the hill was quiet as he made his way down the street . The wind from the sea was fresh and sweet .
The sandhills still breathed heat from yesterday’s sun , though the top of the sand was cool . He ran down to the beach impatiently , but there was no one , just dry sand dancing in the early wind and seabirds marching up and dwon watching the waves .
The light changed suddenly . The first rays of sunlight stretched (延伸) across the sea . The sun was pushing its way over the edge of the world .
Over the first rocks , along to the point . Tim glanced back . The beach was still empty . The sun sailed higher in the sky .
He could see the cave now , even darker in the morning light . The sand turned silver then dark gold as the water flowed away from it . He had to force himself to go closer . Why was it so much more mysterious (神秘)now ? But it would be silly to go back now after so much trouble . He needn’t go in all the way 43．What did Tim do at the beginning of the story ?
