Alice's Adventures in Wonderland — Page 2

English → Chinese CHAPTER I. Level 5/10

" (when she thought it over afterwards, it occurred to her that she ought to have wondered at this, but at the time it all seemed quite natural); but when the Rabbit actually _took a watch out of its waistcoat-pocket_, and looked at it, and then hurried on, Alice started to her feet, for it flashed across her mind that she had never before seen a rabbit with either a waistcoat-pocket, or a watch to take out of it, and burning with curiosity, she ran across the field after it, and fortunately was just in time to see it pop down a large rabbit-hole under the hedge.

（她事后回想起来，觉得自己本该对此感到奇怪，但当时这一切似乎都十分自然）；然而当兔子真的从马甲口袋里掏出一块怀表，看了看，然后匆匆跑开时，爱丽丝猛地站了起来，因为她突然意识到，她从来没有见过一只兔子带着马甲口袋，或是从口袋里掏出怀表，她满怀好奇，飞奔过田野去追它，幸好及时看到它一头钻进了篱笆下的一个大兔子洞。

In another moment down went Alice after it, never once considering how in the world she was to get out again.

片刻之后，爱丽丝也跟着跳了下去，压根儿没有想过她究竟要怎么出来。

The rabbit-hole went straight on like a tunnel for some way, and then dipped suddenly down, so suddenly that Alice had not a moment to think about stopping herself before she found herself falling down a very deep well.

兔子洞先是像隧道一样笔直延伸了一段，然后骤然向下倾斜，来得如此之急，爱丽丝根本没有时间想着停下来，便发现自己正跌落进一口很深的井里。

Either the well was very deep, or she fell very slowly, for she had plenty of time as she went down to look about her and to wonder what was going to happen next.

要么是这口井非常深，要么是她下落得非常缓慢，因为她在往下掉的过程中有充裕的时间四处张望，并且琢磨接下来会发生什么。
