　　The pool of tears

　　講述者

　　Hello! Alice is having some very curious adventures at the bottom of a rabbit hole. She drank a drink that made her verysmall indeed. But she wants to grow bigger so that she can reach the key thatwill unlock the tiny door to a beautiful garden. After eating some cake she found in a little glass box, Alice started to feel something …

　　大家好!Alice正在兔子洞底經(jīng)歷一場(chǎng)奇幻怪異的旅程。她喝了一種能讓她變小的飲料，但是現(xiàn)在為了拿到鑰匙進(jìn)入花園，她又想重新變大。在吃完玻璃盒子里的小蛋糕以后，她開(kāi)始有了一些異樣的感覺(jué)。

　　Alice

　　Curiouser and curiouser! I'm growing! My feet are so far away. Goodbye feet! How will I put my shoes and socks on, I wonder? Ouch!

　　越來(lái)越奇怪了!我在慢慢變大!我的腳已經(jīng)穿不進(jìn)鞋子里了，好奇怪的感覺(jué)啊!哎呀!

　　講述者

　　Alice grew so big that her head hit the ceiling! It was easy to reach the table now. She picked up the tiny key and rushed to the door. But in her excitement, she forgot something again…

　　Alice長(zhǎng)得很大，頭都頂?shù)搅颂旎ò?，現(xiàn)在她能輕而易舉地夠到鑰匙了，她拿到鑰匙向門(mén)跑去，但是她興奮過(guò)頭了，忘記了一件重要的事…

　　Alice

　　Ohhhh… this is hopeless! I'm much too big for this door now! I'll never get into the garden! I can only look through the door with one eye! Oh…

　　噢…糟糕了!我現(xiàn)在身體太大進(jìn)不去門(mén)了!我又進(jìn)不去那個(gè)花園了，只好透過(guò)門(mén)縫往里看了!唉…

　　講述者

　　Alice was over nine feet tall, and when a girl that big cries, the tears are big too. Alice cried and cried until half the hall was filled with a salty pool of tears. After a time, Alice heard a little pattering of feet in the distance. She dried her eyes to see what was coming.

　　Alice現(xiàn)在長(zhǎng)到已經(jīng)九英尺高了，她急得大哭了起來(lái)，碩大的淚滴也撲撲地落下來(lái)，形成了一片咸水灘。過(guò)了一會(huì)兒，Alice聽(tīng)到遠(yuǎn)處有腳步聲，她擦干了眼淚看看是誰(shuí)走了過(guò)來(lái)。

　　White Rabbit

　　Oh! I'm late! I'm so very late! I was told to be early and I'm going to be late. The Duchess will be waiting. Oh my! Ohmy! She will be so very angry with me! Oh my!

　　噢!我來(lái)晚了!我來(lái)晚了!我被通知要早點(diǎn)過(guò)來(lái)，我還是要遲到了。公爵夫人在等我，噢!天啊!她肯定會(huì)非常生氣!天啊!

　　講述者

　　The sight of The White Rabbit, splendidly dressed in his best clothes, and carrying a large fan and a pair of white leather gloves was enough to stop Alice's tears.

　　Alice的目光被那只兔子吸引了，他衣著華麗，拿著大扇子，帶著白色的皮手套。Alice停止了哭泣。

　　Alice

　　If you please, sir…

　　先生…請(qǐng)問(wèn)…

　　White Rabbit

　　Oh!! Oh my!

　　啊!天啊!

　　Alice

　　Don't go! I won't hurt – Oh dear! You'vedropped your gloves… But look: what a pretty fan. And crying is such hot work.Oh, that's better. Oh dear… how strange everything is today. Yesterday thingswere normal. But today I'm not sure if I am the same girl who woke up thismorning. But, if I'm not the girl who woke up this morning, the question is, "Whoam I?"

　　不要走，我不會(huì)傷害你，啊!親愛(ài)的，你的白手套掉了，你的扇子好漂亮…我哭得好熱!正好可以扇一扇。今天發(fā)生的事情都好奇怪，昨天都還很正常，但是今天我都不敢確定我還是不是早上起來(lái)的那個(gè)我了，但如果不是的話(huà)，我又是誰(shuí)呢?

　　講述者

　　Alice fanned herself while she talked. Shefelt much cooler. But after a minute or two, something started happening.

　　Alice邊說(shuō)話(huà)邊扇扇子，感覺(jué)涼快多了，但是過(guò)了一會(huì)兒，又有事情發(fā)生了。

　　Alice

　　Oh: Here's that feeling again.

　　噢!那種感覺(jué)又來(lái)了!

　　講述者

　　Then something kept happening. Alice kept fanning herself.

　　Alice繼續(xù)扇著扇子。

　　Alice

　　I don't believe it. I must be… I am! I'm growing smaller again. Smaller than the table. Hello feet! It's good to see you again.

　　我不信，我肯定是…又要變小了!越來(lái)越小了，比桌子還小。你好!桌子腿!又見(jiàn)面了!

　　講述者

　　Soon Alice was smaller than ever. She was still shrinking and shrinking and she didn't know why.

　　過(guò)了一會(huì)兒，Alice變得比上次還小，也不知道為什么，她還在繼續(xù)縮小。

　　Alice

　　Oh dear - I'm getting very small. Oh… I'm getting much too small! Oh dear - I shall fade away altogether! Ohh…! The fan?The fan!

　　噢親愛(ài)的，我現(xiàn)在變得非常小了，簡(jiǎn)直太小了!我恐怕要完全消失了!扇子呢?扇子呢?

　　講述者

　　Just in time. Alice threw the fan on the floor, so she wouldn't get any smaller.

　　好在Alice把扇子扔到了地上，她才停止繼續(xù)變小了。

　　Alice

　　That was a lucky escape! But now I'm small enough to get into the garden!

　　幸虧扔掉的及時(shí)!現(xiàn)在我終于可以進(jìn)入那個(gè)花園了!

　　講述者

　　Poor Alice! There she stood at the little door - but it was locked again. And there was the little key, back in itsplace, out of reach, on the table.

　　可憐的Alice，她站在小門(mén)前發(fā)現(xiàn)門(mén)還是鎖著的，鑰匙還在原處放著，依然夠不到。

　　Alice

　　Oh not again! This is hopeless. I'll never et that key now. I so badly wanted to see the garden. And things are worse than ever - I've never been so small as this in my life. Never!

　　不會(huì)吧!沒(méi)希望了!我在也拿不到鑰匙了!我多想進(jìn)去那個(gè)小花園啊，這下比上回還糟糕，我變得太小了，永遠(yuǎn)也拿不到鑰匙了!

　　講述者

　　Things were as bad as ever. And they were about to get worse...

　　情況還是那么糟糕，比上次還早糟糕。

　　Alice

　　Ohhh!

　　啊啊啊!
