Chinese → English CHAPTER VIII. Level 4/10

刽子手的论点是,除非有身体可以砍头,否则你不能砍头:他以前从来没有做过这样的事情,他不打算在他这把年纪开始做。

The executioner's argument was, that you couldn't cut off a head unless there was a body to cut it off from: that he had never had to do such a thing before, and he wasn't going to begin at his time of life.

国王的论点是,任何有头的东西都可以被砍头,你不要胡说八道。

The King's argument was, that anything that had a head could be beheaded, and that you weren't to talk nonsense.

王后的论点是,如果不立刻对此采取行动,她会把所有人都处决,一个不留。(正是最后这句话让整个队伍看起来如此严肃和焦虑。)

The Queen's argument was, that if something wasn't done about it in less than no time she'd have everybody executed, all round. (It was this last remark that had made the whole party look so grave and anxious.)

猫头在他离开的那一刻就开始消失了,等他带着公爵夫人回来时,它已经完全消失了;于是国王和刽子手疯狂地上下跑来跑去寻找它,而其他人则回去继续游戏。

The Cat's head began fading away the moment he was gone, and, by the time he had come back with the Duchess, it had entirely disappeared; so the King and the executioner ran wildly up and down looking for it, while the rest of the party went back to the game.
