His mind went back to that book-the book the Lord Himself must have put into his hands out of the hundreds of Army library books sent to the Florida training camp. 他又想到了在训练营时看过的一本书—《人性的枷锁》， Of Human Bondage, it was; and throughout the book were notes in a woman’s writing. He had always hated that writing-in-habit, but these remarks were d...
He could not see the green of the shore now but only the tops of the blue hills that showed white as though they were snow-capped and the clouds that looked like high snow mountains above them. The sea was very dark and the light made prisms in the water. The myriad flecks of the plankton were annulled now by the high sun and it was only the great deep prisms in the blue wa...

So I chartered the raft and the crew and took all the responsibilities on myself. 于是，我租下了这条木筏，雇了他的舵手，一切责任由我承担。 With a rattling song the starboard watch bent to their work and hove the cable short, then got the anchor home, and our bark moved off with a stately, stride，and soon was bowling along at about two knots an hour. 伴着一阵激昂的...

By the time the moon stood clear of the horizon,full-chested, round and the color of ivory,the valleys were deep shadows in the landscape. 等到皓月当空，满月如盘，闪耀着象牙般乳白的清辉，山谷便成了风景中一片片幽深的阴影。 The dogs, reassured that this was the familiar moon, stopped barking. 那些狗确信了那团光原来是它们熟悉的月亮，也安定下来，停止了吠叫。 And all...

The last few days have found me very restless. This evening as I sat in the yard to enjoy the cool, it struck me how different the lotus pool I pass every day must look under a full moon. The moon was sailing higher and higher up the heavens, the sound of childish laughter had died away from the lane beyond our wall, and my wife was in the house patting Juner and humming a ...

And whenever his boat was laid up he would come home and swell around the town in his blackest and greasiest clothes, so that nobody could help remembering that he was a steamboatman; and he used all sorts of steamboat technicalities in his talk, as if he were so used to them that he forgot common people could not understand them. 如果一旦那艘船停得久一些，他就会回家看看...

I PACED alone on the road across the field while thesunset was hiding its last gold like a miser. 我独自在横跨过田地的路上走着，夕阳像一个守财奴似的，正藏起它的最后的金子。 The daylight sank deeper and deeper into thedarkness, and the widowed land, whose harvest hadbeen reaped, lay silent. 白昼更加深沉地投入黑暗之中，那已经收割了的孤寂的田地，默默地躺在那里。 Su...
The stillness of the morning is impressive. 早晨的寂静真令人难忘。 The floor creaks under our feet as we move toward the window to look abroad through some clear space over the fields, we see the roofs stand under their snow burden. 我们踏着吱吱作响的地板来到窗□前，站在一块没有结冰的地方，眺望田野风景。 From the eaves and fences hang stalactites of snow, and in ...
