跳板

The boy dived into the swimming pool from the divingboard.

那个男孩从跳板上一头潜入游泳池。

The swimmer dived into the swimming pool from the divingboard.

游泳运动员从跳板上潜入游泳池。

He dived off the springboard and swam down to the shallow end.

从跳板跳下, 潜入水中, 游到浅水池边。

He hurries down the gangplank to hug his waiting wife.

忙忙走下跳板, 张开臂去拥抱那等待子。

Bankrupt and repudiation are the spring-broads from  which much of our civilization vaults and turns its somersets,but the savage stands on the unelastic plank of famine.

20破产和拒付债务都是跳板，我们文明中大部分就从那里纵跃上升，翻起跟头，而困顿人却站在饥饿这条没有弹性跳板上。
