无比地

When I'm on my deathbed, I want to look back on the records with pride.

当我临终躺在病榻上弥留之际，我会无比自豪地看着这些唱片的。

If you're as lucky as we were, a desert-adapted elephant will saunter by before you check in at a luxurious lodge where the wineis always at a perfect temperature, and a much-needed massage may be available.

如果你也一样幸运的话，那么在住进豪华小旅馆之前，还可以看到一种适应于沙漠生活的大象在你面前悠闲地散步，小旅馆中的酒往往保持着最佳的温度，并且提供你此时无比需要的按摩服务。

But there are vocal mimics too, like a palatable species of tiger moth that deters bats by parodying the ultrasonic clicks of a toxic moth the bats detest, or like the greater racket-tailed drongo of Sri Lanka, which mimics the calls of other birds to drum up a mixed-species flock in which the drongos can more safely and efficiently forage.

但是也有针对声音的欺骗术，比如有一种自身美味无比的灯蛾会很搞笑地模仿一种令蝙蝠厌恶的毒性飞蛾的超声波频率，藉此逃避被吞吃的命运；还有一种长着像火箭似的尾巴的伊斯兰卡燕卷尾会模仿其他鸟类的叫声，招揽来各式各样的鸟群，它们身处其中会更加安全而且掠夺食物也有效率得多。

Unspeakable, who sitst above these Heavens To us invisible or dimly seen In these thy lowest works, yet these declare Thy goodness beyond thought, and Power Divine: Speak yee who best can tell, ye Sons of Light, [ 160 ] Angels, for yee behold him, and with songs And choral symphonies, Day without Night, Circle his Throne rejoycing, yee in Heav'n, On Earth joyn all ye Creatures to extoll Him first, him last, him midst, and without end.

这是言语所难以形容的。您坐在诸天之上，我们看不到您，但看见您这些最卑微的作品，就可略知一二；这些东西已经宣说您的至德和无比的神奇。说吧，您最能说会道的，光明之子，天使们呀，因为你们看见他，你们在天上，便用歌词和交响曲，昼夜不停地围绕着他的宝座欢唱，在地上的芸芸众物呀，你们合声歌颂他，起、承、转、合，永不停息。

The two extremities of this huge parallelogram were occupied, the one by the famous marble table, so long, so broad, and so thick that, say the old territorial records in a style that would whet the appetite of a Gargantua,"Never was such a slab of marble seen in the world"

这座呈平行四边形的宽阔无比的大厅，一端摆着那张名闻遐迩的大理石桌子，那么长，那么宽，那么厚，据古老地籍册所云，世上如此偌大的大理石，真是见所未见，这样一种说法可叫卡岗蒂亚②垂涎欲滴

You are my life and I will gladly give itto you if you ask .

你是我的生命，我将会无比高兴地给你所求的一切。

And there are new shared pleasures: looking at each other in baffled rapture at the half-wit brilliance of 4-year-old Lucy explaining "how they make grass"; beaming with outsize pride at 9-year-old Olivia's dance-recital seriousness and grace; witnessing a spontaneous, unexpected gesture of affection from an older sister to a younger.

事实上还是有一些值得分享的好事儿，我们经常互看着彼此并对此感受到了一种难以言明的快乐-比如我们4岁大的女儿 Lucy 用她稚嫩的话语去解释"如何除草"；为我们9岁大的女儿在舞蹈小竞赛上认真而完美的表演感到无比自豪；亲眼见证了我们两个女儿之间的姐妹情深，而且她们表现地如此自然而然，而让我们出乎预料。

Still, it's almost as if, in a bizarre twist on the "Flying Dutchman" story, Wand has been cursed to re-record Bruckner's Ninth every two or three years throughout eternity, with BMG haplessly obligated to issue the discs.

他是个无比严肃、极度自我批判的音乐家，他懂得不存在"完美"的演绎这回事，他毫无保留地认为每一个新的录音都是在前一次录音基础上的进步。

There the sky was deep blue,the smell of the earth was heavy in the air,the streams ran slowly and silently.

那儿的天空湛蓝无比，空气中充满了泥土的气息，溪水总是寂静缓慢地流淌着。

But this was love--this fever, this longing, this restless, uncertain, miserable hesitation; these cruel fears that his age was an insurmountable barrier to his happiness; this sick hatred of his white beard; this frenzied wish to be young again, with glistening raven hair, and a slim waist, such as he had had twenty years before; these wakeful nights and melancholy days, so gloriously brightened if he chanced to catch a glimpse of her sweet face behind the window curtains as he drove past the surgeon's house; all these signs gave token of the truth; and told only too plainly that, at the sober age of fifty-five, Sir Michael Audley had fallen ill of the terrible fever called love.

然而如今这可是爱惜——这狂热，这渴望，这烦躁的、不确定的、痛苦的犹豫不决；这些残酷的恐惧，深恐他的年龄是他获得幸福的不可克服的障碍；这种对他的白胡子的病态的憎恨；这种妄想重新年轻的疯狂愿望（乌黑发光的头发，细细的腰身，就象二十年前那个模样）；这些不眠之夜和忧郁的白天啊，只要他骑马经过外科医生家时，碰巧看到一眼窗帘后面的她那美丽可爱的脸，他就无比荣幸容光焕发，所有这些迹象都标志着实际的心态；十分明白地告诉人们：迈克尔·奥德利爵士在年届五十五岁这个头脑清醒的年龄，竟生了一场叫做爱情的可怕热病。

As she looked at Warrington's manly face, and dark, melancholy eyes, she had settled in her mind that he must have been the victim of an unhappy attachment.

每逢看到沃林顿那刚毅的脸，那乌黑、忧郁的眼睛，她便会相信，他一定作过不幸的爱情的受害者。

Maybe they'll disappear into a pothole.

也许他们将在壶穴里消失
