Alice's Adventures in Wonderland — Page 3

English → Vi CHAPTER I. Level 5/10

First, she tried to look down and make out what she was coming to, but it was too dark to see anything; then she looked at the sides of the well, and noticed that they were filled with cupboards and book-shelves; here and there she saw maps and pictures hung upon pegs.

Đầu tiên, cô bé cố nhìn xuống để xem mình đang rơi đến đâu, nhưng trời tối quá không thấy gì cả; rồi cô bé nhìn vào các bức tường của cái giếng, và nhận thấy rằng chúng được lấp đầy bởi những tủ chén và giá sách; đây đó cô bé thấy những tấm bản đồ và tranh ảnh treo trên những cái móc.

She took down a jar from one of the shelves as she passed; it was labelled "ORANGE MARMALADE", but to her great disappointment it was empty: she did not like to drop the jar for fear of killing somebody underneath, so managed to put it into one of the cupboards as she fell past it.

Cô bé lấy xuống một cái lọ từ một trong những chiếc giá khi đi ngang qua; nó được dán nhãn "MỨT CAM", nhưng thật thất vọng lớn khi nó trống rỗng: cô bé không muốn đánh rơi cái lọ vì sợ làm ai đó bên dưới bị thương, vì vậy đã cố nhét nó vào một trong những chiếc tủ khi rơi ngang qua.

"Well!" thought Alice to herself, "after such a fall as this, I shall think nothing of tumbling down stairs! How brave they'll all think me at home! Why, I wouldn't say anything about it, even if I fell off the top of the house!" (Which was very likely true.)

"Ồ!" Alice tự nghĩ bụng, "sau một cú ngã như thế này, tôi sẽ chẳng coi việc lăn xuống cầu thang là gì cả! Mọi người ở nhà sẽ nghĩ tôi dũng cảm lắm đây! Ừ thì, tôi sẽ chẳng nói gì về chuyện đó, dù cho tôi có ngã từ trên nóc nhà xuống đi nữa!" (Điều đó rất có thể là thật.)

Down, down, down. Would the fall _never_ come to an end?

Rơi, rơi, rơi mãi. Liệu cú rơi này có bao giờ kết thúc không?

"I wonder how many miles I've fallen by this time?" she said aloud.

"Không biết đến lúc này mình đã rơi được bao nhiêu dặm rồi nhỉ?" cô bé nói to.

"I must be getting somewhere near the centre of the earth.

"Chắc mình sắp đến gần tâm trái đất rồi.
