屋檐

"In 17th-18th-century Britain, long covered walks or galleries with roofs supported by columns were called piazzas; in the U.S. in the 19th century, piazza was another name for a veranda formed by projecting eaves."

在17至18世纪的英国，长而有屋顶的人行道，或长廊设有由圆柱支撑的屋顶，也称为柱廊；在19世纪的美国，这个字则是，突出的屋檐所形成的阳台的另一名称。

A good love banishes your worries of stepping afar from each other after ten years, because you are promenading on the plain hand in hand, not dodging rain under the eave, where the two are not necessarily depend on each other, after the rain.

你不会担心十年后，你们的步伐不一致，因为你们携手漫步在草原上，而不是在屋檐下避雨，当雨停了，也就没必要相依下去。

No, she's not going to any such place,' I cried, struggling to release my arm, which he had seized: but she was almost at the doorstones already, scampering round the brow at full speed.

&不，她不能到这样的地方去，&我叫着，想挣脱被他抓住的胳臂：可是她已经差不多走到门前的石阶了，很快地跑着绕过屋檐。

The roof was made of Smarties and the trim was made of icing sugar!

I have already described my habitation, which was a tent under the side of a rock, surrounded with a strong pale of post and cables, but I might now rather call it a wall, for I raised a kind of wall up against it of turfs, about two foot thick on the outside, and after some time, I think it was a year and a half, I raised rafters from it leaning to the rock, and thatched or covered it with bows of trees, and such things as I could get to keep out the rain, which I found at some times of the year very violent.

前面我已描述过自己的住所。那是一个搭在山岩下的帐篷，四周用木桩和缆索做成坚固的木栅环绕着。现在，我可以把木栅叫做围墙了，因为我在木栅外面用草皮堆成了一道两英尺后的墙，并花了大约一年半的时间，在围墙和岩壁之间搭了一些屋檐，上面盖些树枝或者其它可以弄到的东西用来挡雨。因为我发现，一年之中总有一段时间大雨如注。

Sparrows twittered sleepily in the eaves-for a little while the scene might have been a country churchyard.

屋檐下的燕雀在睡梦中几声啁啾——这会儿有如乡村中教堂墓地的气氛。

And now we get to be together under the one roof, having dinners together.

现在，我们怎么着也得在一起了，在同一个屋檐下了，一起吃饭了。

It reminds one of the bronze bells dangling from a pagoda's eaves; on windless days they are a decoration upon the age-weathered beauty, but with wind they give out wonderful tinkling and jingling metallurgic sounds, as if echoing age-old stories of long, long ago...

它提醒铜铃在塔的屋檐上摇摆，在无风的日子里它们是美丽天气的一种的装饰，在风里它们就会发出叮叮铃铃的美妙声音，好像很久很久以前古老故事的回声

Census workers are being taught, for example, to look for clues that a house has two families living in it, such as an extra letter box or electricity meter.

例如，人口普查的工作人员在学习如何寻找线索，辨别两户人住在一个屋檐下的情况，比如添加的信箱和电表。

As usual, the girl waited until the last day without touching the hemp. Down from the roof's gutter fell a bundle of rags, and out came an old woman with buckteeth.

这一次也跟以前一样，姑娘一根线也没纺，当只剩最后一天的时候，从屋檐下掉下来一个破布包，一个露着牙齿的老妇人从破布包里面走了出来。

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.
