A Young Pioneer
年轻的先驱
Long ago, when the western part of the United States was still a wilderness, a young boy, called Kit, not yet twenty years old, went from his home in the East to learn about the new country. He wanted to know what lay beyond the Rocky Mountains.
Kit‘s father had taught him to shoot straight, but he learned more about hunting and trapping in the country of the Indians.
Kit was always calm in times of danger. He was strong and brave. Most of the Indians liked and respected him for his honesty.
For many years, Kit lived in the West. He taught other white men many things. Probably the most important thing he taught them was how to get along with the Indians.

很久以前，美国西部还是一片荒野，一个年轻的男孩，名叫基特，还不满二十岁，从东部的家乡来到这里，要了解这个新的国家。他想知道在落基山脉那边有什么。
