The water at the back of the house could be heard, idly spinning whirpools in its creep between the rows of dry feather-headed reeds which formed a stockade along each bank.

屋背后淙淙河水流声清晰可闻，河两岸挂了芦花干枯芦，一排栅栏，河水在芦丛中打着漩涡，慢慢淌着。

The valley in which he found himself divided and sub-divided into many gorges, which were so like each other that it was impossible to distinguish one from the other.

他觉得他所在这个山谷，一时变千沟万壑，处处十分相似，简直法辨认。他沿着一条山沟走了一英里多路，来到一个涧水淙淙所在。

There was field upon field of ripening grain, with well-paved roads running between, and pretty rippling brooks with strong bridges across them.

这里有良田，阡陌相连，熟庄稼在田里随风起着波浪，道路横亘在中间，流水淙淙小溪上面，架着坚固桥梁。

All round them though out of sight, there were streams, chattering, murmuring, bubbling, splashing and even (in the distance) roaring.

虽然看不见，但就在他们周围，那是小溪潺潺欢唱，水流淙淙，噗噗冒泡，水花四溅，甚至（远处）激流咆哮。

'T is brightness all: save where the new snow melts along the mazy current.

暮色渐褪，悄声融化白雪皑皑，龙走蜿蜒，流水淙淙中欣然上路。
