In former times, those severe places where the discipline of the prison delivers the convict into his own hands, were composed of four stone walls, a stone ceiling, a flagged pavement, a camp bed, a grated window, and a door lined with iron, and were called dungeons; but the dungeon was judged to be too terrible; nowadays they are composed of an iron door, a grated window, a camp bed, a flagged pavement, four stone walls, and a stone ceiling, and are called chambers of punishment.

从前，狱里的制度是让囚犯自己去处理自己的，囚禁他们的那种严酷的地方，四堵墙是条石砌的，顶上也是条石架的，地上铺了石板，放一张布榻，有一个用铁条拦住的透风洞，一道钉上铁皮的门，这种地方叫做囚牢，但是有人认为囚牢太可怕了。

Rather than employing mystic animist themes from ancient times or demonic, repulsive getups intended to give people a scare, Cologne Carnival costumes are typically on the comic side, revelers sporting all manner of clownish outfits, perhaps including raggedy sewn-on patches, over-sized suspender-held trousers and clumsy bulbous-toed shoes, plus a variety of wigs, noses, and hilarious makeup jobs, most satisfactorily topped off, of course, with conical or otherwise outlandish headgear.

科隆嘉年华的节庆装扮风格现代，而且很平民化、大众化，走的路线不是神秘主义的古典，也不以怪力恶魔的狰狞扮相引人发噱，科隆嘉年华普遍的装扮选择了马戏班里的小丑造型，卷发、红鼻头、血盆大口，加上象徵补钉的格子图案，然后配上蓬松饱满的吊带裤、笨笨肿肿的圆头靴，当然，能再顶上圆锥尖帽就更令人满意，就是标准的莱茵河嘉年华扮相。

The "Phoenix" was just one of the dramatic "pictorial" crop formations which appeared in the fields of England last summer--and to our surprise the plant samples taken from it (and several of the other equally astounding formations) showed clear evidence of exposure to a plasma discharge: stunted and poorly-developed seed-heads, massive apical node elongation, expulsion cavities and--in several cases--node bending which could not be attributed to phototropism/gravitropism.

"凤凰"只是其中一个戏剧性的作物结构"图案"，去年夏天出现在英格兰的田地-和令我们吃一惊的是取自它的植物样本（及几个其它同样惊人的结构）显示清楚的证据，曾在一等离子体放电下暴露：发育迟缓和弱发展的种子头，大量的顶上茎节延伸，驱逐凹处及-在一些情况下-茎节弯曲并不能归因於向光性/重力影响。

516Many most attractive and enthusiastic women also commit suicide by stabbing, drowning, drinking prussic acid, aconite, arsenic, opening their veins, refusing food, casting themselves under steamrollers, from the top of Nelson's Pillar, into the great vat of Guinness's brewery, asphyxiating themselves by placing their heads in gasovens, hanging themselves in stylish garters, leaping from windows of different storeys.

516（众多最富于魅力和狂热的妇女也纷纷自杀。有用匕首刺胸口的，有自溺的，服氢氰酸、附子或砒霜的，割动脉的，绝食的，纵身投到蒸气碾路机轮下的，从纳尔逊纪念柱顶上跳进吉尼斯啤酒公司那巨大酒桶里的，还有把头伸到煤气灶底下气绝身死，用时髦的袜带自缢，或从各层楼窗口跳下的。

Two large cages tattled on top of the laden trolleys the parents were pushing; the owls inside them hooted indignantly, and the redheaded girl trailed fearfully behi

由两个家长推着的负载的手推车顶上有两个大大的笼子，里面的猫头鹰们愤怒地叫着，一个红头发的女孩无精打采地跟着两兄弟后面，抓住她爸爸的手臂。

La Pompadour, was rolled stiffly back from her forehead and coiled in a burnished rope on the top of her head.

她的一切都是那么安详平淡，那么不事张扬，甚至包括她说话的声调和她选择的发式；她梳的是高卷式发型，淡褐色的头发从前额向后紧紧地卷过去用一根光亮的头绳盘绕在头顶上。

December 10th, I began now to think my Cave or Vault finished, when on a Sudden,(it seems I had made it too large) a great Quantity of Earth fell down from the Top and one Side, so much, that in short it frighted me, and not without Reason too; for if I had been under it I had never wanted a Grave-Digger: Upon this Disaster I had a great deal of Work to do over again; for I had the loose Earth to carry out; and which was of more Importance, I had the Seiling to prop up, so that I might be sure no more would come down.

十二月十日我本以为挖洞的工程已大功告成，可突然发生了塌方。也许我把洞挖得太大了，大量的泥土从顶上和一旁的岩壁上塌下来，落下的泥土之多，简直把我吓坏了。我这般惊恐，当然不是没有理由的。要是塌方时我正在洞内，那我肯定用不着掘墓人了。这次灾祸一发生，我又有许多工作要做了。我不但要把落下来的松土运出去，还安装了天花板，下面用柱子支撑起来，免得再出现塌方的灾难。

So Little Claus climbed to the roof of the shed, and while he turned himself to get comfortable, he discovered that the wooden shutters, which were closed, did not reach to the tops of the windows of the farmhouse, so that he could see into a room, in which a large table was laid out with wine, roast meat, and a splendid fish.

床。我想鹳鸟决不会飞下来啄我的腿的。因为屋顶上就站着一只活生生的鹳鸟——它的窠就在那上面。小克劳斯爬到茅屋顶上，在那上面躺下，翻了个身，把自己舒舒服服地安顿下来。窗外的百叶窗的上面一部分没有关好，所以他看得见屋子里的房间。

On Thursday the infants, mostly under two years old, were dangled from the roof of the shrine near Sholapur, about 450 kilometres south of Mumbai, before being dropped about 15 metres onto a bedsheet held aloft by parents and other believers.

在星期四，那些大多数在2岁以下的婴儿被悬挂在Sholapur附近的神祠的屋顶上，Sholapur大约在孟买的南边450公里处，坠落距离约15米高，最后婴儿落到由他们的父母和其他教徒拉着的床单上。

But he could still end up breakfasting on Swiss-government issue muesli because all six are accused of nicking around 45 million pounds they should have paid to FIFA.

不过他最后仍有可能沦为瑞士政府&议事餐桌&上的一道早餐，因为这所有六个人都被指控把本应支付给国际足联的大约4500万英镑骗了个精光。
