第二章 眼泪的池塘
'Curiouser and curiouser!' cried Alice (she was so much surprised, that for the moment she quite forgot how to speak good English); 'now I'm opening out like the largest telescope that ever was! Good–bye, feet!' (for when she looked down at her feet, they seemed to be almost out of sight, they were getting so far off). 'Oh, my poor little feet, I wonder who will put on your shoes and stockings for you now, dears? I'm sure I shan't be able! I shall be a great deal too far off to trouble myself about you: you must manage the best way you can;—but I must be kind to them,' thought Alice, 'or perhaps they won't walk the way I want to go! Let me see: I'll give them a new pair of boots every Christmas.'
“奇怪啊奇怪，”爱丽丝喊道，她那么惊奇，霎时，竟说不成话了，“现在我一定变成最大的望远镜里的人了。再见了，我的双脚！”她俯视自己的脚，远得快看不见了。“哦，我的可怜的小脚哟！谁再给你们穿鞋和系鞋带呢，亲爱的，我可不能了，我离你们太远了，没法再照顾你们了，以后你们只好自己照顾自己吧！……但是我必须对它们好一些，”爱丽丝又想道，“否则它们会不愿走到我想去的地方的，对啦，每次圣诞节我一定要送它们一双新的长统靴。”
And she went on planning to herself how she would manage it. 'They must go by the carrier,' she thought; 'and how funny it'll seem, sending presents to one's own feet! And how odd the directions will look!
她继续盘算该怎么送礼：“我得把礼物打成包裹寄给它们，”她想，“呀，多滑稽，给自己的脚寄礼物鼠这地址写起来可太离奇了：
ALICE'S RIGHT FOOT, ESQ.HEARTHRUG,
壁炉边搁脚拦杆上
NEAR THE FENDER,
爱丽丝的右脚收
(WITH ALICE'S LOVE).
爱丽丝寄
Oh dear, what nonsense I'm talking!'
“哦，亲爱的，我说的什么废话呀！”
Just then her head struck against the roof of the hall: in fact she was now more than nine feet high, and she at once took up the little golden key and hurried off to the garden door.
就在这一刹那，她的头撞到了大厅的屋顶上。她现在至少有九英尺高了，她急忙拿起小金钥匙向小花园的门跑去。
Poor Alice! It was as much as she could do, lying down on one side, to look through into the garden with one eye; but to get through was more hopeless than ever: she sat down and began to cry again.
可怜的爱丽丝！现在最多只能侧身躺在地下，用一只眼睛往花园里望，更没有可能进去了，于是她又哭了。
'You ought to be ashamed of yourself,' said Alice, 'a great girl like you,' (she might well say this), 'to go on crying in this way! Stop this moment, I tell you!' But she went on all the same, shedding gallons of tears, until there was a large pool all round her, about four inches deep and reaching half down the hall.
“你不害澡吗？”爱丽丝对自己说，“像你这么大的姑娘（说得很对），还要哭。马上停止，我命令你！”但她还不停地哭，足足掉了一桶眼泪。她还继续哭，直到身边成了个大池塘，有四英尺深，半个大厅都变成池塘了。
After a time she heard a little pattering of feet in the distance, and she hastily dried her eyes to see what was coming. It was the White Rabbit returning, splendidly dressed, with a pair of white kid gloves in one hand and a large fan in the other: he came trotting along in a great hurry, muttering to himself as he came, 'Oh! the Duchess, the Duchess! Oh! won't she be savage if I've kept her waiting!' Alice felt so desperate that she was ready to ask help of any one; so, when the Rabbit came near her, she began, in a low, timid voice, 'If you please, sir—' The Rabbit started violently, dropped the white kid gloves and the fan, and skurried away into the darkness as hard as he could go.
过了一会儿，她听到远处轻微的脚步声，她急忙擦干眼泪，看看谁来了。原来那只小白兔又回来了，打扮得漂漂亮亮的，一只手里本着一双白羊羔皮手套，另一只手里拿着一把大扇子，正急急忙忙地小跑着过来。小白兔一边走．一边喃喃自语地说：“哦，公爵夫人，公爵夫人！唉！假如我害她久等了，她可别生气呵！”爱丽丝很希望来个人帮助自己，因此见到小白兔很失望。但是在小白兔走近时，她还是怯生生地小声说：“劳驾，先生……”这可把兔子吓了一跳，扔掉了白羔皮手套和扇子，拼命地跑进暗处去了。
Alice took up the fan and gloves, and, as the hall was very hot, she kept fanning herself all the time she went on talking: 'Dear, dear! How queer everything is to–day! And yesterday things went on just as usual. I wonder if I've been changed in the night? Let me think: was I the same when I got up this morning? I almost think I can remember feeling a little different. But if I'm not the same, the next question is, Who in the world am I? Ah, THAT'S the great puzzle!' And she began thinking over all the children she knew that were of the same age as herself, to see if she could have been changed for any of them.
爱丽丝拾起了扇子和手套。这时屋里很热，她就一边搧着扇子，一边自言自语地说：“亲爱的，亲爱的，今天可净是怪事，昨天还是那么正常，是不是夜里发生的变化？让我想想：我早晨起来时是不是还是我自己，我想起来了，早晨就觉得有点不对头。但是，要是我不是自己的话，那么我能是谁呢，唉！这可真是个谜啊！”于是她就挨个儿地去想和她相同年龄的女孩子，她是变成了她们中的哪一个了？
