  Mrs White looked at her husband. 'Did you give some money to Tom Morris for that paw?' she asked. ' (1) ' Mrs White was angry now.
  'Well, yes,' her husband answered. 'I did, but not much, and at first he didn't want to take it. He wanted the monkey's paw.'
  'Well, he can't have it,' Herbert laughed. 'It's our paw now and we're going to be rich and happy. Come on, Father. Make a wish!'
  Old Mr White took the paw from his pocket. 'OK, Herbert, (2) I have everything—you, your mother. What do I need?'
  'Money, of course,' Herbert answered quickly. 'We need money! (3) With money you can pay for this house. It can be your house! Go on, Father, wish for thirty thousand pounds!'
  Herbert stopped talking and his old father thought for a minute. (4)
  Then Mr White took the monkey's paw in his right hand. He was afraid, but he looked at his wife and she smiled at him.
  'Go on,' she said.
  Slowly and carefully Mr White said, 'I wish for thirty thousand pounds.'
   (5)
  'What's the matter, Father?' Herbert asked.
  'It moved!' Mr White cried. 'The monkey's paw—it moved!'
  They looked at the paw. It was now on the floor and not in the old man's hand. The family watched it, and they waited—but it did not move again.

We don't have money to give away for nothing. but what am I going to ask for? You're always thinking about money, that's because we haven't got very much of it. The room was quiet and they could hear the rain on the windows. Suddenly he gave a cry and Mrs White and Herbert ran to him.
怀特太太看着她的丈夫。“你从莫里斯那儿拿来猴爪给他钱了吗?”她问。“我们没有多余的钱去为无价值的东西付出!”怀特太太现在发怒了。   “是的,”她丈夫回答说,“我付钱了,但不多。开始他不想要钱,他要他的猴爪。”   “好啦,莫里斯不再拥有猴爪了,”赫伯特笑了起来。“猴爪现在属于我们,我们将变得富有幸福。来吧,父亲。许个愿!”   老怀特先生从口袋里拿出猴爪。“好吧,赫伯特,但我还要什么呢?我拥有一切——你,你母亲。我需要什么呢?”   “当然是钱,”赫伯特迅速回答,“我们需要钱!你总是为钱而费尽心思,那是因为我们没有钱。有钱你能买房子。真正属于你的房子!来吧,父亲,许愿吧,愿咱们有30 000英镑。”   赫伯特停止了讲话,他的父亲思考了一会儿。房子里很安静,他们能够听到雨点打在大窗户上的声音。   接着怀特先生拿出猴爪放在右手。他很害怕,他看着妻子;他的妻子冲他微笑。   “说吧。”她说。   怀特先生缓慢而又小心地说,“我希望有 30 000英镑。”   突然,他发出一声尖叫,怀特太太和赫伯特向他跑过去。   “发生什么事了,父亲?”赫伯特问。   “它动起来了!”怀特先生喊道。“那猴爪——它动起来了!”   他们看着爪子。爪子现在不在老人手里而在地板上。这一家看着,等着,但猴爪已不再动了。
