上房

And there was actually around 12 July, which is the "marching season" here, our neighbours got letters which said We strongly advise you to put a Unionist flag on your house.

实际上大约在7月12日，这个时间是这里的"游行季节"，我们的邻居收到信，信上说：我们强力建议你在房上插上联合主义者的旗帜。

She grabbed the ladder stowed in her truck, threw it up against the house and began climbing.

邦妮搬过放在卡车上的梯子，把它靠在房上，开始往上爬。

Nature sent him into the world strong and lusty, in a thriving condition, wearing his own hair on his head, the proper branches of this reasoning vegetable, till the axe of intemperance has lopped off his green boughs, and left him a withered trunk, he then flies to art, and puts on a periwig, valuing himself upon an unnatural bundle of hairs, all covered with powder, that never grew on his head; but now should this our broomstick pretend to enter the scene, proud of those birchen spoils it never bore, and all covered with dust, through the sweeping of the finest lady's chamber, we should be apt to ridicule and despise its vanity.

刚来到这个世界上时，它是多么的遒劲有力，多么的活力十足，欣欣向荣。头上长着与生俱来的嫩枝，枝叶繁茂，然而，人类的斧头无节制地将它的枝干砍掉，直到留给它一个枯萎的树干。然后，它只得求助艺术，戴上一丛自己看来并不自然的"假发"，而且那假发永远也不会生长。自己则完全掩埋在灰尘中。但是，我们的扫柄也应这样登场——把桦木的枝条安在自己身上，并且为之洋洋自得吗？它们身上覆盖了尘土，尽管还是最尊贵的夫人房里的尘土。即便这样，它的虚荣心，也应该受到我们的嘲笑与鄙视。

当大自然送他入世之初，他是强壮有力的，处于兴旺时期，满头的天生好发；如果比作一株有理性的植物，那就是枝叶齐全。但不久酗酒贪色就像一把斧子砍掉了他的青枝绿叶，只留给他一根枯株。他赶紧求助于人工，戴上了头套，以一束扑满香粉但非他头上所长的假发为荣。要是我们这把扫帚也这样登场，由于把一些别的树条收集到身上而得意洋洋，其实这些条上尽是尘土，即使是最高贵的夫人房里的尘土，我们一定会笑它如何虚荣吧！我们就是这样偏心的审判官，偏于自己的优点，别人的毛病！1.pretend："自认为有能力"的意思，根据上下文的情况可以翻译为"想"

The clock of the Temple Church and the clocks of St. Dunstan's, St. Clement's Danes, and a crowd of other churches, whose steeples uprear themselves above the house-tops by the river, struck ten at last, and Mr. Audley, who had put on his hat and overcoat nearly half an hour before, let himself out of the little lobby, and locked his door behind him.

圣殿教堂的钟，圣邓斯坦和圣克莱门特·戴恩斯教堂的钟，以及尖塔高耸在河滨屋顶之上的、一群其他教堂的钟，终于都为十点钟而挡挡报时了，奥德利先生半个钟头以前已经把帽子戴上、大衣穿上，这时便走出小小门廊，把房门锁上了。

When I was young I appreciated very much the actor's actions in some films that they worked while eating food, I appreciated bluejacket's manners whey they heart the order "collect on the board", so they rushed out of the cabins while chawing bread in their mouth, and climbed up the mast.

我很小的时候就欣赏电影上的男演员一边吃东西一边干活的做派，欣赏水兵们听到&甲板上集合！&嘴里嚼着面包就冲出舱房、爬上桅杆的神气。

Each guest room is built around a different animal theme: the Eagle Room has a big-beaked bird standing atop a huge egg, while another has arm-sized ants crawling up the wall.

每间客房都突出不同的动物主题：鹰室里有一只巨大的喙嘴鸟在一个巨蛋上，而另一间房里的墙壁上则涂上了手臂长的蚂蚁。

The split between the two groups can hardly be papered over.

这两个团体间的分歧难以掩饰。
