Alice's Adventures in Wonderland — Page 4
「当然不会,」爱丽丝很快地回答:「但那是因为一年会持续很长一段时间。」
"Of course not," Alice replied very readily: "but that's because it stays the same year for such a long time together."
「我的情况也正是如此,」帽匠说。
"Which is just the case with _mine_," said the Hatter.
爱丽丝感到非常困惑。帽匠的话似乎毫无意义,然而说的确实是英语。
Alice felt dreadfully puzzled, The Hatter's remark seemed to have no sort of meaning in it, and yet it was certainly English.
「我不太明白你的意思,」她尽可能礼貌地说。
"I don't quite understand you," she said, as politely as she could.
「睡鼠又睡着了,」帽匠说,然后他往睡鼠的鼻子上倒了一点热茶。
"The Dormouse is asleep again," said the Hatter, and he poured a little hot tea upon its nose.
睡鼠不耐烦地摇了摇头,没有睁开眼睛说:「当然,当然;这正是我自己想说的。」
The Dormouse shook its head impatiently, and said, without opening its eyes, "Of course, of course; just what I was going to remark myself."
「你猜出谜语了吗?」帽匠转向爱丽丝又问道。
"Have you guessed the riddle yet?" the Hatter said, turning to Alice again.
「没有,我放弃了,」爱丽丝回答:「答案是什么?」
"No, I give it up," Alice replied: "what's the answer?"
「我一点概念也没有,」帽匠说。
"I haven't the slightest idea," said the Hatter.
「我也没有,」三月兔说。
"Nor I," said the March Hare.
爱丽丝疲倦地叹了口气。「我觉得你们可以把时间用在更好的事情上,」她说,「而不是浪费在问没有答案的谜语上。」
Alice sighed wearily. "I think you might do something better with the time," she said, "than waste it in asking riddles that have no answers."
「如果你像我一样了解时间,」帽匠说,「你就不会说浪费它了。他是一个人。」
"If you knew Time as well as I do," said the Hatter, "you wouldn't talk about wasting _it_. It's _him_."
「我不明白你的意思,」爱丽丝说。
"I don't know what you mean," said Alice.
「你当然不明白!」帽匠轻蔑地甩了甩头说。「我敢说你从来没跟时间说过话!」
"Of course you don't!" the Hatter said, tossing his head contemptuously. "I dare say you never even spoke to Time!"
「也许没有,」爱丽丝谨慎地回答:「但我知道学音乐的时候必须打拍子。」
"Perhaps not," Alice cautiously replied: "but I know I have to beat time when I learn music."
「啊!
"Ah!
