"The dress which I found waiting for me was of a peculiar shade of blue.

"放在那里等我去穿的那件衣服的色澤是特殊的暗藍(lán)色。

It was of excellent material, a sort of beige, but it bore unmistakable signs of having been worn before.

那是一種極好的嗶嘰料子縫制的，但是一眼就能看出是穿過的衣服。

It could not have been a better fit if I had been measured for it.

這件衣服對我再合身不過了，好象是比著我的身材做的。

Both Mr. and Mrs. Rucastle expressed a delight at the look of it, which seemed quite exaggerated in its vehemence.

魯卡斯?fàn)栂壬头蛉丝戳硕籍惓８吲d，高興得甚至有些過于熱烈。

They were waiting for me in the drawing-room, which is a very large room,

他們在客廳等我，這間客廳十分寬敞，

stretching along the entire front of the house, with three long windows reaching down to the floor.

占據(jù)了房子的整個(gè)前半部，有三扇落地窗。

A chair had been placed close to the central window, with its back turned towards it.

靠中間那扇窗放著一張椅背朝著窗戶的椅子。

In this I was asked to sit, and then Mr. Rucastle, walking up and down on the other side of the room,

他們要我坐在這張椅子上，接著，魯卡斯?fàn)栂壬诜块g的另一邊來回踱步，

began to tell me a series of the funniest stories that I have ever listened to.

開始給我講一連串我從來沒有聽到過的最好笑的故事。

You cannot imagine how comical he was, and I laughed until I was quite weary.

你們都想象不出他有多么滑稽，我都笑累了。

Mrs. Rucastle, however, who has evidently no sense of humour, never so much as smiled,

可是魯卡斯?fàn)柗蛉孙@然沒有什么幽默感，甚至連笑也不笑，

but sat with her hands in her lap, and a sad, anxious look upon her face.

只是雙手放在膝蓋上端坐在那里，臉上既憂郁又焦急的樣子。

After an hour or so, Mr. Rucastle suddenly remarked that it was time to commence the duties of the day,

大約過了一個(gè)小時(shí)的光景，魯卡斯?fàn)栂壬鋈恍Q已到開始一天工作的時(shí)間，

and that I might change my dress and go to little Edward in the nursery."

我可以更換衣服去保育室找小愛德華了。"
