'I'm sure those are not the right words,' said poor Alice, and her eyes filled with tears again as she went on, 'I must be Mabel after all, and I shall have to go and live in that poky little house, and have next to no toys to play with, and oh! ever so many lessons to learn! No, I've made up my mind about it; if I'm Mabel, I'll stay down here! It'll be no use their putting their heads down and saying "Come up again, dear!" I shall only look up and say "Who am I then? Tell me that first, and then, if I like being that person, I'll come up: if not, I'll stay down here till I'm somebody else"--but, oh dear!' cried Alice, with a sudden burst of tears, 'I do wish they WOULD put their heads down! I am so VERY tired of being all alone here!'
“我相信背错了。”可怜的爱丽丝一边说着,一边又掉下了眼泪:“我一定真的成了玛贝尔了,我得住在破房子里,什么玩具也没有,还得学那么多的功课。不行!我拿定主意了,如果我是玛贝尔,我就呆在这井下,他们把头伸到井口说:‘上来吧!亲爱的!”我只往上问他们:‘你们先得告诉我,我是谁,如果变成我喜欢的人,我就上来,如果不是,我就一直呆在这里,除非我再变成什么人’……可是,亲爱的!”爱丽丝突然哭起来:“我真想让他们来叫我上去呀!实在不愿意孤零零地呆在这儿了。”

As she said this she looked down at her hands, and was surprised to see that she had put on one of the Rabbit's little white kid gloves while she was talking. 'How CAN I have done that?' she thought. 'I must be growing small again.' She got up and went to the table to measure herself by it, and found that, as nearly as she could guess, she was now about two feet high, and was going on shrinking rapidly: she soon found out that the cause of this was the fan she was holding, and she dropped it hastily, just in time to avoid shrinking away altogether.
她说话时,无意中看了一下自己的手,见到一只手上戴了小白兔的白羊羔皮手套,她奇怪极了,“这怎么搞的?”她想,“我一定又变小了,”她起来步到桌子边,量一量自己,正像她猜测的那样,她现在大约只有二英寸高了,而且还在迅速地缩下去,她很快发现是拿着的那把扇子在作怪,于是她赶紧扔掉扇子,总算快,要不就缩得没有了。

'That WAS a narrow escape!' said Alice, a good deal frightened at the sudden change, but very glad to find herself still in existence; 'and now for the garden!' and she ran with all speed back to the little door: but, alas! the little door was shut again, and the little golden key was lying on the glass table as before, 'and things are worse than ever,' thought the poor child, 'for I never was so small as this before, never! And I declare it's too bad, that it is!'
“好险呀!”爱丽丝说。她真的吓坏了,但总算自己还存在,因此很高兴,“现在,该去花园了!”她飞快地跪到小门那儿,但是,哎哟,小门又锁上了,小金钥匙像从前一样仍在玻璃桌子上。“现在更糟糕了,”可怜的小爱丽丝想,“因为我还没有这样小过,从来没有重我该说这太糟了!太糟了!”

As she said these words her foot slipped, and in another moment, splash! she was up to her chin in salt water. Her first idea was that she had somehow fallen into the sea, 'and in that case I can go back by railway,' she said to herself. (Alice had been to the seaside once in her life, and had come to the general conclusion, that wherever you go to on the English coast you find a number of bathing machines in the sea, some children digging in the sand with wooden spades, then a row of lodging houses, and behind them a railway station.) However, she soon made out that she was in the pool of tears which she had wept when she was nine feet high.
她说话时,突然滑倒了,“扑通”一声,咸咸的水已经淹到她的下巴了。她第一个念头是掉进海里了。她对自己说:“那么我可以坐火车回去了,”——爱丽丝到海边去过,看到海滨有许多更衣车,孩子们在沙滩上用木铲挖洞玩。还有一排出租的住房,住房后面是个火车站——然而不久,她就明白了,自己是在一个眼泪的池塘里,这是她九英尺高的时候流出来的眼泪。

'I wish I hadn't cried so much!' said Alice, as she swam about, trying to find her way out. 'I shall be punished for it now, I suppose, by being drowned in my own tears! That WILL be a queer thing, to be sure! However, everything is queer today.'
“但愿我刚才没哭得这么厉害!”爱丽丝说话时来回游着,想找条路游出去,现在我受报应了,我的眼沼快要把自己淹死啦!这又是桩怪事,说真的,今天尽是怪事!”
