Through the Looking-Glass, and What Alice Found There 14
爱丽丝镜中世界奇遇记 14
'What do you want to buy?' the Sheep said at last, looking up for a moment from her knitting(1).
绵羊终于抬起眼睛问话了:“你要买什么?”
'I'm not sure at the moment,' Alice said gently. 'May I look round first?'
“现在我还拿不准。我可以先看看吗?”爱丽丝轻声轻气地问。
She began to walk round(2) the shop, looking at everything. But every time she looked hard at something, it seemed to move and then appear again a moment later in a different place. So it was difficult to see clearly what was there. She went on walking, and soon realized that the shop was much bigger than she had thought.
'What a strange shop!' Alice said. 'I wish things would keep still(3)!'
爱丽丝说:“这商店太奇特了!我希望东西摆在那儿不动。”
A few minutes later the shop became even stranger, because Alice found herself walking beside a large lake, with tall green plants growing round the edge. She put out her hand to pick some, but the plants disappeared when she touched them.
'Oh, what a pity!' said Alice. 'I would like to take some home. They look so pretty.'
爱丽丝说:“太可惜了!我要带些回家,它们看起来多漂亮。”
'There are lots of other things here,' said the Sheep. 'But you must decide what you want to buy.'
“本商店还出售许多其他东西,但你必须想好到底买些什么。”绵羊说。
'To buy!' Alice said, jumping a little in surprise. The lake had gone(4), and she was back in the little dark shop. The Sheep was still knitting, and was looking at her crossly over the top of her glasses.
'I would like to buy an egg, please,' Alice said. 'How much do they cost?'
爱丽丝说:“我想买个鸡蛋。怎么卖?”
'Fivepence for one, twopence for two,' the Sheep replied.
“五便士一个,两便士两个。”绵羊答道。
'So two are cheaper than one?' Alice said in a surprised voice, taking out her purse.
爱丽丝拿出钱包,非常惊奇地说:“这么说,两个比一个要便宜。”
'But you must eat them both, if you buy two,' said the Sheep.
“你要买两个,就得吃两个。”绵羊说。
'Then I'll have one, please,' said Alice, giving the Sheep fivepence.
“那我就买一个。”爱丽丝说着,递给绵羊五便士。
The Sheep took the money, then said, 'You must get it yourself, you know. It's at the end of the shop.'
绵羊接了钱,然后说道:“你得自己去拿。就在店面那一头。”
The end of the shop was very dark, and was crowded(5) with tables and chairs. Alice could see the egg, but she never seemed to get near it. She almost fell over a chair, and then realized that it was not a chair at all, but a small tree. 'Why are trees growing here?' she wondered. 'This is the strangest shop that I ever saw! And now here's a little brook as well!'
So she went on, wondering more and more at every step. After a while everything had turned into a tree, and she thought that the egg would soon do the same.
