I sat down on an old wooden settle, carved all overlike a bench on the Battery.

我在一只老式的木頭高背長(zhǎng)靠椅上坐下,這只椅子就象炮臺(tái)公園里的長(zhǎng)椅一樣,全都刻劃滿(mǎn)了,

At one end a ruminating tar was still furtheradorning it with his jack-knife, stooping over and diligently working away at the space betweenhis legs.

椅子的另一頭,一個(gè)若有所思的水手用他那把大折刀還在往上面添著花樣,他傴著身子,在他兩腿間的木頭上用勁地刻著。

He was trying his hand at a ship under full sail, but he didn't make much headway, I thought.

But the fare was of the most substantial kind-not only meat and potatoes, but dumplings;good heavens! dumplings for supper!

不過(guò),飯菜卻挺豐盛...不但有肉有土豆,還有湯團(tuán);天哪!把湯團(tuán)拿來(lái)當(dāng)晚飯吃!

One young fellow in a green box coat, addressed himself to these dumplings in a most direfulmanner.

一個(gè)穿著一件綠色的車(chē)夫外套的年青小伙子,神情極其可怕地在忙著吃這些湯團(tuán).
