第3章 和毛毛虫的谈话 (Chapter 3 Conversation with a caterpillar)
"Then how do you get them,if you don't steal them!" screamed the bird.
“那么,如果不是偷,你们怎么弄到蛋的?”
This was a difficult question to answer,so Alice brought up her right hand through the leaves and ate a little from the other piece of mushroom.
这个问题很难回答,爱丽丝把右手从树叶间抽出来,吃了点那片蘑菇。
She began to get smaller at once and, very carefully,she ate first from one hand,then from the other,until she was about twenty-five centimeters high.
她马上开始变小了,然后,她小心翼翼地吃点这片,吃点那片,直到她有25厘米那么高。
"That's better,"she said to herself.
“这还差不多,”她对自己说。
"And now I must find that garden."
“现在我得找到那个花园。”
She began to walk through the wood,and after a while she came to a little house.
她走进树林,过了一会儿到了一所小房子面前。
