Instead, brown diamonds were used as tools to drill through rocks and cut glass.

相反，棕色钻石被作钻穿岩石和切割玻璃的工具。

Little wheels of extremely hard steel are also used for cutting glass, and this they do fairly well, though not nearly so well as diamonds.

人们还为坚硬的钢轮对玻璃进行切割, 这种方法虽然比不上金刚石那理想, 但效果还算不错。

The beautiful gem called the diamond is, however, even harder than glass; and glaziersuse small diamonds set in a handle to cut glass to the size that they want.

然而, 那种被称作金刚石的石比玻璃更加坚硬；玻璃工人一把带有手柄的金刚石切割工具将玻璃切割为需要的大小。

They were in a beautiful room, richly tapestried, with a bright fire on a clean hearth, and red wine and cut glass sparkling on the table.

他们三个就走了进去。那是一间十分漂亮的房间，挂满了挂毯，干净的壁炉里炉光明亮，桌上的刻花玻璃杯和红酒闪闪发光。

Over the pain of my leg, I felt the sharp rip across my scalp where the glass cut into it. And then the warm wetness began to spread through my hair with alarming speed.

除了腿上的疼痛之外，我还感觉到了玻璃扎进我的头皮的尖锐的刺痛。然后一种温暖的液体以惊人的速度从我的头发里流下来。
