查询词典 contraption

If we transported that box to the Grand Canyon of Arizona and balanced it neatly on the low stone wall that keep people from breaking their necks when stunned by the incredible beauty of that silent witness of the forces of Eternity, and then called little Noodle,the dachshund,and told him(the tiny beast is very intelligent and loves to oblige) to give the unwieldy contraption a slight push with his brown nose,there would be a moment of crunching and ripping as the wooden planksloosened stones and shrubs and trees on their downward path, and then a low and even softer bumpity-bumpity-bump and a sudden splash when the outer edges struck the banks of the Colorado River.

如果我们将这个盒子运至亚利桑那州的大峡谷，并将它平放在一列低矮的石头墙上，然后唤来小路德，一只猎獾狗，并告诉它（这只小兽异常聪明且乐于助人）用软绵绵的棕色鼻子轻推一下这个笨重盒子，然后便是好长一段时间的碰撞和撕扯，就好像厚木板在下滑过程中松动岩石、灌木奔向未知的天堂。
