《爱丽丝漫游仙境》听写训练第24期:我们来赛跑吧
Speak English! said the Eaglet. I don't know the meaning of half those long words, and, what's more, I don't believe you do either! And the Eaglet bent down its head to hide a smile: some of the other birds tittered audibly. What I was going to say, said the Dodo in an offended tone, was, that the best thing to get us dry would be a Caucus-race. What IS a Caucus-race? said Alice; not that she wanted much to know, but the Dodo had paused as if it thought that SOMEBODY ought to speak, and no one else seemed inclined to say anything. Why, said the Dodo, the best way to explain it is to do it. And, as you might like to try the thing yourself, some winter day, I will tell you how the Dodo managed it.
“讲英语!”小鹰说,“你这句话的意思,我连一半都听不懂!更主要的是我不相信你自己会懂,”小鹰说完后低下头偷偷笑了,其它一些鸟也都偷偷地笑出声来。 “我说的是,能让我们把湿衣服弄干的最好办法,是来个会议式的赛跑。”渡渡鸟恼怒地说。 “什么是会议式赛跑?”爱丽丝问,爱丽丝本来不想多问,因为渡渡鸟说到这里停住了,似乎想等别人问似的,而偏偏又没人问它。 渡渡鸟说:“对,为了说明它,最好的办法就是咱们亲自做一做。”(由于你在冬天也许会想起来玩这种游戏,所以我占这里告诉你渡渡鸟是怎么做的。)
