Alice's Adventures in Wonderland — Page 8
老师是一只老海龟——我们过去常叫他陆龟——
The master was an old Turtle—we used to call him Tortoise—
"你们为什么叫他陆龟,如果他不是陆龟的话?"爱丽丝问道。
"Why did you call him Tortoise, if he wasn't one?" Alice asked.
"我们叫他陆龟是因为他教我们,"假海龟生气地说:"你真是太迟钝了!"
"We called him Tortoise because he taught us," said the Mock Turtle angrily: "really you are very dull!"
"你问这么简单的问题应该感到羞愧,"鹰头狮补充道;然后他们俩都安静地坐着,看着可怜的爱丽丝,她感觉自己恨不得钻进地里去。
"You ought to be ashamed of yourself for asking such a simple question," added the Gryphon; and then they both sat silent and looked at poor Alice, who felt ready to sink into the earth.
最后鹰头狮对假海龟说:"继续说吧,老伙计!别磨蹭一整天!"然后他继续用这些话说:
At last the Gryphon said to the Mock Turtle, "Drive on, old fellow! Don't be all day about it!" and he went on in these words:
"是的,我们在海里上学,虽然你可能不相信——"
"Yes, we went to school in the sea, though you mayn't believe it—"
"我从来没说我不相信!"爱丽丝打断道。
"I never said I didn't!" interrupted Alice.
"你说了,"假海龟说。
"You did," said the Mock Turtle.
"住口!"鹰头狮补充道,在爱丽丝还没来得及再说话之前。假海龟继续说下去。
"Hold your tongue!" added the Gryphon, before Alice could speak again. The Mock Turtle went on.
"我们受的是最好的教育——实际上,我们每天都去上学——"
"We had the best of educations—in fact, we went to school every day—"
"我也上过日校,"爱丽丝说;"你不必那么骄傲。"
"_I've_ been to a day-school, too," said Alice; "you needn't be so proud as all that."
"有额外课程吗?"假海龟有点焦急地问。
"With extras?" asked the Mock Turtle a little anxiously.
"有,"爱丽丝说,"我们学了法语和音乐。"
"Yes," said Alice, "we learned French and music."
"还有洗涤吗?"假海龟说。
"And washing?" said the Mock Turtle.
"当然没有!"爱丽丝愤怒地说。
"Certainly not!" said Alice indignantly.
"啊!那你们学校就不是真正的好学校,"假海龟用非常宽慰的口气说。"现在在我们学校,他们在账单的末尾写着,'法语、音乐和洗涤——额外收费。'
"Ah! then yours wasn't a really good school," said the Mock Turtle in a tone of great relief. "Now at _ours_ they had at the end of the bill, 'French, music, _and washing_—extra.
