闪光的

A bright-eyed bird in a sun-catching golden collar... an old, strong bird whose eyes were full of the wisdom of high places and broad vision... from his chitinous claw hung a beautiful, rainbow-shimmering fish...

他梦见了一只双眼非常有神的鸟，围着一个阳光般迷人的金项圈……那是一只上了年纪的，然而却非常强壮的鸟，它的眼睛充满了智慧，这是一种俯视世事、洞察世情的智慧……在它带有角质的爪子上，挂着一只美丽的、彩虹般闪光的鱼

But of this we will take thought hereafter; for the present, let us draw a ship into the sea, and find a crew for her expressly; let us put a hecatomb on board, and let us send Chryseis also; further, let some chief man among us be in command, either Ajax, or Idomeneus, or yourself, son of Peleus, mighty warrior that you are, that we may offer sacrifice and appease the the anger of the god.

我将亲往提取——动怒发火去吧，那位接受我造访的伙计！够了，这些事情我们以后再议。现在，我们必须拨出一条乌黑的海船，拖人闪光的大海，配备足够的桨手，搬上丰盛的祀祭——别忘了那位姑娘，美貌的克鲁塞伊丝。须由一位首领负责解送，或是埃阿斯，或是伊多墨纽斯，或是卓越的俄底修斯也可以是你自己，裴琉斯之子，天底下暴戾的典型以主持牲祭，平息远射手的恨心。

The only source of light in the chamber—and with the topmost hatchway now closed, the only source of illumination at all—was a strange, glowing rectangle that shone against the far wall, a misty door painted on the wall in fitful yellowish light.

在这房间里，唯一的亮光——因为最上层的通道口现在关上了，也就是照在整个这第二层、第三层的光源——是在远处墙上闪光的、一个奇怪的矩形的发光体，是断断续续地黄色的光，在墙壁上描画出的一扇雾蒙蒙的门。

As he dropped the gleaming thing back into his robe, Simon saw that the quill end of the golden feather was attached to a writing scroll carved of pearly white stone.

他把那个闪光的东西放回袍子里，Simon看到那只金色羽毛末端的羽茎，附在一个用珍珠般白色的石头，雕刻着的书写用的卷轴。

When they came to the house of Alexandrus the maid-servants set about their work, but Helen went into her own room, and the laughter-loving goddess took a seat and set it for her facing Alexandrus.

当她们抵达亚历克山德罗斯华丽的房居，侍从们赶忙闪开，操持各自的活计，而海伦，女人中闪光的佼佼者，此时走向顶面高耸的睡房。爱笑的阿芙罗底忒抓过一把椅子

Although the exchange of keys is now a pure ceremony, but the soldiers of the Royal style of movement and the military band performed the exchange kept flashing a shutter sound.

尽管交换钥匙现在已成为纯粹的仪式，但士兵王家风范的动作和军乐队的表演总换来不停的闪光的快门声。

He remained strange and bright and cheerful, almost, one might say, chirpy, with his ruddy, healthy-looking face, arid his pale-blue, challenging bright eyes.

可是他却依然这样奇特、活泼、愉快，红润的健康的脸容，挑拨人的闪光的灰蓝眼睛，他简直可说是个乐天安命的人。

Now it was a herd of diabolic shapes, that grinned and mocked at the pale minister, and beckoned him away with them; now a group of shining angels, who flew upward heavily, as sorrow-laden, but grew more ethereal as they rose. Now came the dead friends of his youth, and his white-bearded father, with a saint-like frown, and his mother, turning her face away as she passed by.

这些幻象时而是一群凶暴的恶魔，对着这位牧师狞笑嘲弄，呼唤他随他们而去；时而是一伙闪光的天使，象是满载哀伤的重荷，沉重地向上飞去，但随着越飞越高，而变得轻灵起来；时而又来了他年轻时那些夭折的朋友，还有他那面带圣者般的蹙容、须发花白的父亲，以及在走过时却扭转面孔不理睬他的母亲。

From his slim, neatly pressed tan slacks to his perfectly trimmed nails and the small, gleaming stud in his left earlobe, everything about Mr. Rebete suggests a sense of well-scrubbed order. In 1982, Mr. Rebete joined France's civil-servant corps and worked his way through various municipal units, including the Department of Cleanliness and Water.

从他那修长平整的茶色夹克、修剪整齐的指甲，到左耳垂隐约闪光的小耳钉，雷贝特先生本身就是一丝不苟的最好诠释。1982年，雷贝特先生加入了法国公务员队伍，随后服务于市政府的多个部门，包括城市清洁和净水部(Department of Cleanliness and Water)。

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。
