That's wonderful,” said the Scarecrow.
Suddenly, they heard a shout from the trees near the house and they all ran out of the house to look.
They saw a man by a big tree, with an axe in his hand. He was made of tin. He stood very still. And he shouted “Help!” again and again.
“What can I do for you?” asked Dorothy.
“I can't move,” said the Tin Man(锡人). “Please oil me. There's an oil−can in my house.”
At once Dorothy ran back to the house and found the oil−can. Then she carefully oiled the Tin Man. Slowly, he began to move, first his head, and then his arms and legs.
“Thank you,” the Tin Man said. “I feel better now.” He put down his axe. “I went out in the rain, you see, and water is very bad for a tin body. By the way, where are you going?”
Dorothy told him about the Wizard of Oz(奥兹魔法师). “I want to go back to Kansas, and the
Scarecrow wants some brains,” she said.
The Tin Man ws very interested. “Can the Wizard give me a heart, do you think? I have no heart, so I can't love, or feel... I would very much like to have a heart.”
“Come with us,” said the Scarecrow.
“Yes,” said Dorothy. “And then you can ask the Wizard for help, too.”
