Alice's Adventures in Wonderland — Page 4
"我不知道Dinn在哪里,"假海龟说,"但如果你经常见到它们,你当然知道它们长什么样。"
"I don't know where Dinn may be," said the Mock Turtle, "but if you've seen them so often, of course you know what they're like."
"我想是的,"爱丽丝若有所思地回答。"它们把尾巴含在嘴里——而且浑身都是面包屑。"
"I believe so," Alice replied thoughtfully. "They have their tails in their mouths—and they're all over crumbs."
"关于面包屑你说错了,"假海龟说:"面包屑在海里都会被冲掉的。但它们确实把尾巴含在嘴里;原因是——"说到这里假海龟打了个哈欠,闭上了眼睛。——"告诉她原因之类的,"他对鹰头狮说。
"You're wrong about the crumbs," said the Mock Turtle: "crumbs would all wash off in the sea. But they _have_ their tails in their mouths; and the reason is—" here the Mock Turtle yawned and shut his eyes.—"Tell her about the reason and all that," he said to the Gryphon.
"原因是,"鹰头狮说,"它们要跟龙虾一起去跳舞。所以它们被扔到了海里。所以它们要掉很长一段距离。所以它们的尾巴就紧紧地卡在嘴里了。所以它们再也拿不出来了。就是这样。"
"The reason is," said the Gryphon, "that they _would_ go with the lobsters to the dance. So they got thrown out to sea. So they had to fall a long way. So they got their tails fast in their mouths. So they couldn't get them out again. That's all."
"谢谢你,"爱丽丝说,"这很有意思。我以前从来不知道这么多关于鳕鱼的事。"
"Thank you," said Alice, "it's very interesting. I never knew so much about a whiting before."
"如果你愿意,我可以告诉你更多,"鹰头狮说。"你知道它为什么叫whiting吗?"
"I can tell you more than that, if you like," said the Gryphon. "Do you know why it's called a whiting?"
"我从来没想过这个问题,"爱丽丝说。"为什么?"
"I never thought about it," said Alice. "Why?"
"它给靴子和鞋子增白,"鹰头狮非常严肃地回答。
"_It does the boots and shoes_," the Gryphon replied very solemnly.
爱丽丝完全困惑了。"给靴子和鞋子增白!"她用惊奇的语气重复道。
Alice was thoroughly puzzled. "Does the boots and shoes!" she repeated in a wondering tone.
"哎呀,你的鞋子是用什么处理的?"鹰头狮说。"我是说,是什么让它们这么亮?"
"Why, what are _your_ shoes done with?" said the Gryphon. "I mean, what makes them so shiny?"
