I was watching the curiously different motions of the two men, the young thin one in bright blue trousers, the elderly fat one in shabby black trousers that stick out in front, the different amount of effort in their mowing , the lack of grace in the elderly one, his jerky advance, the unpleasant effect of the new "boater" on his head----and I tried to interest the little lady.

我注视着着两个人不同得令人感到荒谬的动作，那清瘦的年轻人穿着天蓝色的裤子，发胖的年长者穿着显出大肚子的破黑裤子，两个人割草时所用的力气不一样，年长的一位动作缺乏美感，前进的步子也不平稳，他头上的那顶新的硬边草帽也使人产生不快----我试图引起小个子女士的兴趣。

And I was so pleasantly musing over the two men mowing: the young one, with long legs in bright blue cotton trousers, and with bare black head, swinging so lightly downhill, and the other, in black trousers, rather stout in front , and wearing a new straw hat of the boater variety, coming rather stiffly after, crunching the end of his stroke with a certain violent effort.

可我刚刚还在愉快地望着两个割草人若有所思：年轻的一位生着一双长腿，穿着天蓝色的棉布裤子，黑黑的头发上没戴帽子，在山脚下轻松地来回摇摆着长镰；另一位穿着黑裤子，前面肚子挺壮实，戴着一顶新的硬边草帽，呆板板地走在后面，颇费力气地用镰刀尖嘎吱嘎吱地割着草。

Her skirt is trim, A-line, and ankle length. Her matching jacket is hip length with a notched collar, nipped in slightly at the waist. Her blouse is plain, her belt wide; her hat is a straw boater pinned upon one side, like a Musketeer.

她的裙子上窄下宽呈A字型，长度仅及脚踝，她搭配的短上衣刚好遮住臀部，并在腰部位置稍微收紧，衣领则是大大外翻的；她的衬衣式样简明，她的腰带宽阔；她还戴着一顶斜别向一边的硬草帽，看起来十足一个火枪手。

I want to look at the mowers, and wonder why fatness, elderliness, and black trousers should inevitably wear a new straw hat of the boater variety, move in stiff jerks, shove the end of the scythe-strokes with a certain violence, and win my hearty disapproval, as contrasted with young long thinness, bright blue cotton trousers, a bare black head, and a pretty lifting movement at the end of the scythe-stroke.

我想看割草人，想知道为什么这个胖子、长者和黑裤子竟非要戴一顶硬边的新草帽，而且动作不灵活，颇废气力地用长镰的刀尖割草；而年轻人又高又瘦，身着天蓝色棉布裤子，一头黑发，不戴草帽，用长镰割草时，刀尖优美地向上一提，使我在对照之下对年长者产生由衷的不赞同。

And the design of body type, appliance condition and the numerical model for transient proces ...

For this reason, I find so many of our political scoundrels are such lovable human beings, and so many of our futile bombastic college presidents extremely good fellows at home.

正因为如此，我察觉到许多政坛上的恶棍，倒也是十分可爱的人，又察觉到许多院校浮夸的校长，在家里却是顶好的先生。

I put on a bonnet on my head.

我戴上一顶棉帽在我的头上。

It was a person who had a bonnet like yours.

是个戴一顶和您的帽子一样的人。

Though unusual in the Dublin area he knew that it was not by any means unknown for desperadoes who had next to nothing to live on to be abroad waylaying and generally terrorising peaceable pedestrians by placing a pistol at their head in some secluded spot outside the city proper, famished loiterers of the Thames embankment category they might be hanging about there or simply marauders ready to decamp with whatever boodle they could in one fell swoop at a moment's notice, your money or your life, leaving you there to point a moral, gagged and garrotted.

尽管这在都柏林区是罕见的，然而还会有缺衣少食的亡命之徒埋伏在荒郊僻野处，把手枪顶在安分守已的路人头部加以威胁。他们可能像泰晤士河堤岸上那些饥饿的穷流浪汉似的到处荡来荡去，对你进行突然袭击，逼你交出钱来，否则就要你的命。把你抢个精光之后，还往你嘴里塞上东西，脖子用绳索勒起，把你丢在那儿，以便警告旁人，他们就逃之夭夭。

She gently rebuff ed him, but agreed that they could be friends

她婉言拒绝了，但同意作为朋友相处。

If in the penal farm, you were sure to be criticized.

要是在劳改农场，你等着挨绳子吧！
