Mary and Marion went into the ice-cream house and found a library with 10 big bookshelves* in it.
“Wow, Mary, what a nice house! There are so many books!” Marion cried* happily. Then she took a book out from the first bookshelf. The book’s name was The History of Wishing Island. Marion was interested in* the book. She turned（翻） to Page 1295...
The wishing bottle was made by King Solomon（所罗门国王） in 949 AD（公元）. It was used（使用） to hold devils（魔鬼）. When the devils are dead（死的）, the bottle can pull in the person（人） who opens it. If the person on the island wants to be out again, the chief（首领） in the bottle must break（破译） this code（密码）:

译文：玛丽和玛莉安走进冰激凌屋，在屋里发现了一个有10个大书架的图书室。“哇，玛丽，多好的房子啊！有这么多的书！”玛莉安高兴地叫道。接着，她从第一个书架上取出一本书，书名叫《许愿岛的历史》。玛莉安对这本书产生了兴趣，她一翻就翻到了第1295页……
这个许愿瓶由所罗门国王于公元949年制造，原先用于装魔鬼。当魔鬼死后，瓶子会将打开它的人吸进里面。如果岛上的人想从瓶子里出去，那么这个瓶子里的首领必须破解这个密码：F_ _ _ E_ _ _ _ _ _i_g B_ _ _el_。
“What does it mean（意思是）?” Marion said to herself.
Suddenly（突然）, the floor of the ice-cream house was shaking* furiously（猛烈地）. “What’s happening, Mary?” shouted（呼喊） Marion.
They ran out of the house and saw that a boy’s foot was on the wishing bottle. “Soo!” The naughty* boy kicked* the bottle into the sea. The sea outside（在……外面） the wishing bottle went wild（狂暴的）. The bottle was bouncing around（颠簸着） on the sea. Everything* in it was shaking.

Marion said to Mary, “We must call Dolly and tell her about the Great Triton（海神）, king of the sea. Remember（记得）? We heard the story from Mum, and maybe（也许） it is true*!”
Marion blew into the seashell. Dolly appeared（出现）. “Oh Dolly,” said Marion, “We need* you. Years ago, Mother told us a story about the Great Triton. He has great power（力量）. Now the sea is angry. We must talk to him and get him to stop the storm（风暴）.”

They went to a cave（洞穴） and saw a beautiful witch. “Hi, girls! I’m Alana.” The witch said with a nice voice*, “I also come from* the outside world. I am good at* chemistry（化学）, so I’m a witch here.”
“I’m the daughter of the chief,” Dolly said.
“We are here to ask you about the Great Triton,” said Marion.

Alana poked（戳） a hole* in another（另一个的） daffodil with a knife. “Face（面对） to the hole and say everything you want to say to the Great Triton. Then listen to the daffodil carefully*,” Alana said seriously（认真地）.
“Great Triton, please stop the storm. This is Mary,” said Mary faithfully（忠诚地）.

Dolly thanked Alana and went out of the cave with Mary and Marion. The storm stopped. Hundreds of* people came out of their houses. They were happy.
“Wow, there are so many people on the island!” Mary and Marion were surprised（惊讶的）.
Dolly’s father Robert and her mother Salina threw a big party* to celebrate（庆祝） the coming back（恢复） of peace（平静）. Everyone on the island had a good time*.
