It told me things about him I never knew to ask.

一切或许抵达不久后有次磨人的午餐。当时坐在我旁边，我总算注意到，尽管那年夏初，在西西里岛短暂逗留时，晒得有点棕褐色，但掌心和脚底、喉咙、前臂内侧都是一样的白皙、柔嫩，因为都没怎么晒过太阳。几乎是淡粉色的，像蜥蜴腹部一样光亮平滑。私密、纯洁、青涩，就像运动员脸上的红晕，或是暴风雨夜之后的一抹黎明曙光。这些透露出的是我死也不会去问的事。

He put his two hands together and felt the palms.

合上双手，摸摸掌心。

An adult will fit in the palm of your hand.

成年候可以放进人的掌心。

But these man-made effigies hold the kaleidoscope of time, stopped in their hands.

人为重现的镜像拥有扭曲时间的魔力，时间在们的掌心静止。

It's a tiny thing, it can just go in the palm of your hand.

就这样一个小小的作品，能放在你的掌心。

Full-body experience as I track it back to center. Palms back together at the heart.

回到中心可以得到全身的体验。掌心合拢。

The flower sat there, opening and closing its petals, like some bizarre, many-lipped oyster.

莉莉等她靠近能看清楚后，张开了手掌，那朵花在她的掌心一开一合，像是只有许多开口的奇怪牡蛎。

Hid her finger in the palm of his hand. Burrowed her nose under his collarbone.

把手指钻进的掌心，把到的锁骨上。

A water person passing by doused them with water from his hand.

一位路过的水族男士从掌心喷出水柱，朝们浇去。

Three times he slipped through our fingers.

在巴黎三次逃过我们的掌心。

Place your palm downward and make an inconspicuous waving gesture, which will produce instant and satisfying results.

掌心向下，做一个不显眼的手势，会产生即时的满意效果。

Where are you? You can't run away from me. Come out, come out, wherever you are.

你在哪儿？你逃不过我的手掌心的。出来，出来，不管你在哪儿。

Then he slowly but watchfully slaps the baton into his palm again.

纸棍缓慢而坚定地再次落入掌心。

Ove strikes his paper baton rhythmically into the palm of his hand.

欧维又开有节奏地在掌心反复敲打着纸棍。

Russell's only this big, she said, holding her hand, palm down, two feet from the floor.

“拉赛尔只有这么大。”她说着，将手抬起约离地两英尺，掌心向下比划了一下。

I looked down at my palms, at the almost-healed scrapes across the heels of my hands.

我低下头看自己的掌心，看见了手腕上那些快愈合了的擦伤。

Normally, the medical device fits in the palm of a hand, typically about the size of a matchbox.

传统起搏器通常如火柴盒大小，可置掌心。

So he rolls up the local newspaper and envelope and slaps it into his palm, like a baton.

是把地方报纸和信卷成一根棍在一只手的掌心拍打起来。

I dropped my hand to the table, moving my left hand so that my palms were pressed together.

我把手放到桌上，伸出左手，然后掌心相抵着。

Even if you make your thumbs line up, one hand is palm up and the other is palm down.

即使你将自己的拇指对齐，一只手掌心朝上，另一只掌心朝下。
