发刺耳声

When the bell rang, a nasal buzzing sound, a gangly boy with skin to me.

下课铃响了——发出一阵刺耳的嗡嗡声，一个瘦长瘦长有皮肤病、头发黑得跟抹了发油似的男生从过道的另一边倾过身来对我说。

After that followed a sharp grating noise, a shouted gibberish from Pickman, and the deafening discharge of all six chambers of a revolver, fired spectacularly as a lion tamer might fire in the air for effect.

不知道过了多久，忽然响起一阵刺耳的噪音，Pickman怒吼了一声，紧接着就把手枪里头的六发子弹全打了出去，巨大的轰鸣声响彻了整个地窖，好像打雷一般震耳欲聋。

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

这两个团体间的分歧难以掩饰。

This approach not only encourages a greater number of responses, but minimizes the likelihood of stale groupthink.

这种做法不仅鼓励了更多的反应，而且减少跟风的可能性。
