Alice's Adventures in Wonderland — Page 5
然后他们又一次围在她身边，渡渡鸟庄严地把顶针递给她，说道："我们恳请您接受这枚精美的顶针。"当它说完这番简短的致辞后，所有人都欢呼起来。
Then they all crowded round her once more, while the Dodo solemnly presented the thimble, saying "We beg your acceptance of this elegant thimble;" and, when it had finished this short speech, they all cheered.
爱丽丝觉得整件事情非常荒唐，但他们看起来都那么严肃，她不敢笑出来；而且，由于她想不出该说什么，就只是鞠了一躬，接过顶针，尽可能装出庄重的样子。
Alice thought the whole thing very absurd, but they all looked so grave that she did not dare to laugh; and, as she could not think of anything to say, she simply bowed, and took the thimble, looking as solemn as she could.
接下来是吃糖果：这引起了一些噪音和混乱，因为大鸟抱怨它们尝不出味道，小鸟则被呛到了，不得不拍打它们的背部。
The next thing was to eat the comfits: this caused some noise and confusion, as the large birds complained that they could not taste theirs, and the small ones choked and had to be patted on the back.

"你答应过要告诉我你的经历的，"爱丽丝说，"还有为什么你讨厌——C和D，"她小声补充道，有点担心它会再次生气。
"You promised to tell me your history, you know," said Alice, "and why it is you hate—C and D," she added in a whisper, half afraid that it would be offended again.
"我的是一个漫长而悲伤的故事！"老鼠转向爱丽丝说道，叹了口气。
"Mine is a long and a sad tale!" said the Mouse, turning to Alice, and sighing.
"这确实是一条长尾巴，"爱丽丝惊奇地看着老鼠的尾巴说道，"但你为什么说它悲伤呢？
"It _is_ a long tail, certainly," said Alice, looking down with wonder at the Mouse's tail; "but why do you call it sad?
