Alice's Adventures in Wonderland — Page 9
它会去捡你扔出去的东西，会坐起来乞求它的晚餐，还会做各种各样的事情——我都记不住一半——它属于一个农夫，你知道，农夫说它非常有用，值一百英镑！
It'll fetch things when you throw them, and it'll sit up and beg for its dinner, and all sorts of things—I can't remember half of them—and it belongs to a farmer, you know, and he says it's so useful, it's worth a hundred pounds!
他说它能杀死所有的老鼠，还有——哦，天哪！
He says it kills all the rats and—oh dear!
因为那只老鼠正在拼命地游离她，在水池里掀起了好大的波浪。
For the Mouse was swimming away from her as hard as it could go, and making quite a commotion in the pool as it went.
老鼠听到这话，转过身来慢慢地游回到她身边：它的脸色非常苍白（爱丽丝认为是因为激动），它用低沉颤抖的声音说道：
When the Mouse heard this, it turned round and swam slowly back to her: its face was quite pale (with passion, Alice thought), and it said in a low trembling voice,
是该离开的时候了，因为水池里已经挤满了各种落入水中的鸟类和动物：有一只鸭子、一只渡渡鸟、一只鹦鹉和一只小鹰，还有几只其他奇怪的生物。
It was high time to go, for the pool was getting quite crowded with the birds and animals that had fallen into it: there were a Duck and a Dodo, a Lory and an Eaglet, and several other curious creatures.
爱丽丝带领着大家，整个队伍一起游向了岸边。
Alice led the way, and the whole party swam to the shore.
