地平线

The expedition had taken with them an elderly Arab whose main qualifications as a guide were that he had crossed the sand sea twice before in his lifetime, once as a young lad. To the expedition's amazement , he had kept the vehicles at an exact compass bearing right across the sand sea, apparently based solely on his recollection of minor features in the landscape (a hump on the horizon or a patch of unusual red sand) that he had seen only twice many years before.

该远征队随行带上了一位年长阿拉伯人，他作为向导的主要资格就是他平生曾两次穿过这个大沙海，其中一次他还是个年青小伙子，令远征队叹服的是，他带领车队迳直横穿沙海时与罗盘方向完全吻合，显然他全靠回忆那些只在多年前见识过两次的细小的地貌特征(如地平线上的一个土丘或者一片非同一般的红色沙漠)。

To be free of the litter and filth of a London suburb, of its broken hedges, its brickbats, its torn advertisements, its worn and trampled grass in fields half given over to the speculative builder: in place of this, to tread the immaculate shore over which breathed a wind not charged with soot; to replace the dull, shrouding obscurity of the smoke by a distance so distinct that the masts of the ships whose hulls were buried below the horizon were visible—all this was perfect bliss.

伦敦郊外的垃圾污秽、断篱残砖、破烂招贴、乃至半由投机营造人侵占践踏的大片草地，至此都一概抛在脑后：而代之以光洁无暇的岸滩，步履其上，清风习习，不杂一丝烟气；这里再不是烟尘笼罩，晦暝凄其，而是天明气清，一望无际，沉埋在远处地平线下的船只，桅樯矗立，历历可见—看到这一切真是很大的幸福。
