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。

`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!'

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.

`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 to-day.'

参考译文

“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!”

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。

“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!”
