是啥意思?
But while reconciliation was trembling in the air, while each was, in
a measure, stalling it off, so that they might the more voluptuously
and sentimentally enjoy it when it came, they were permanently
interrupted by a twenty-minute phone call for Betty from a garrulous
aunt. At the end of eighteen minutes Perry Parkhurst, urged on by

picked up his light brown soft hat, and stalked out the door,
然而,当和解一直悬而未决,当两人在某种程度上一再拖延,以便在它来临时,能够更加
纵慾而激情地享受那个时刻之际,他们永远都会被贝蒂饶舌的阿姨打来找她的那通一讲就
是二十分钟的电话给硬生生地打断。这一次,当贝蒂讲完第十八分钟的电话,正要开始第
十九分钟的时候,派瑞‧帕克斯特在骄傲、怀疑和受损的尊严驱使之下,穿上了他的毛皮
长外套,拿起了他浅棕色的软帽,然後昂首阔步地走出了梅第尔家的大门。

downtown. He sat slouched down very low in his seat, much too
dispirited to care where he went.
他将车往市区的方向驶去--更确切的说,他其实只是沿着雪地上一道朝着市区方向前进的
车辙不断行驶而已。他无精打采地低坐在他的座椅中,心情沮丧到了极点,就连自己究竟
要前往何处,也无心思索。
