英文阅读

她把伸进烟囱里的脚收了收,等到听到一个小动物(她猜不出是什么动物)在烟囱里连滚带爬地接近了她的脚,这时她自语说:“这就是比尔了,”同时狠狠地踢了一脚,然后等着看下一步会发生些什么。

`Oh! So Bill's got to come down the chimney, has he?' said Alice to herself. `Shy, they seem to put everything upon Bill! I wouldn't be in Bill's place for a good deal: this fireplace is narrow, to be sure; but I THINK I can kick a little!'

She drew her foot as far down the chimney as she could, and waited till she heard a little animal (she couldn't guess of what sort it was) scratching and scrambling about in the chimney close above her: then, saying to herself `This is Bill,' she gave one sharp kick, and waited to see what would happen next.

The first thing she heard was a general chorus of `There goes Bill!' then the Rabbit's voice along--`Catch him, you by the hedge!' then silence, and then another confusion of voices--`Hold up his head--Brandy now--Don't choke him--How was it, old fellow? What happened to you? Tell us all about it!'

Last came a little feeble, squeaking voice, (`That's Bill,' thought Alice,) `Well, I hardly know--No more, thank ye; I'm better now--but I'm a deal too flustered to tell you--all I know is, something comes at me like a Jack-in-the-box, and up I goes like a sky-rocket!'

参考译文

“啊,这么说比尔就要从烟囱下来了,”爱丽丝对自己说,“嘿,它们好像把什么事情都推在比尔身上,我可不做比尔这个角色。说真的这个壁炉很窄,不过我还是可以踢那么一下。”

她把伸进烟囱里的脚收了收,等到听到一个小动物(她猜不出是什么动物)在烟囱里连滚带爬地接近了她的脚,这时她自语说:“这就是比尔了,”同时狠狠地踢了一脚,然后等着看下一步会发生些什么。

首先,她听到一片叫喊:“比尔飞出来啦!”然后是兔子的声音:“喂,篱笆边的人,快抓住它!”静了一会儿,又是一片乱嚷嚷:“抬起它的头……,快,白兰地……别呛着了它!怎么样了?老伙计,刚才你碰见了什么?告诉我们。”

最后传来的是一个微弱的尖细声(爱丽丝认为这是比尔)“唉,我一点也不知道……再不要,谢谢你,我已经好多了……我太紧张了,没法说清楚,我所知道的就是……不知什么东西,就像盒子里的玩偶人(西方小孩经常玩一种玩偶盒,一打开盒盖即弹出小玩偶来。)一样弹过来,于是,我就像火箭一样飞了出来!” “不错,老伙计!你真是像火箭一样。”另外一个声音说。
