英语小达人每天10分钟 111 Sunrise in Nepal
第14单元 尼泊尔的日出
The smell of the goats was enough to make Wendy sick. But goats with gas...that was just disgusting. Wasn't there a shuttle bus or something a little less stinky to make them up the mountain?
山羊的味道已经让温蒂觉得想吐了，加上山羊又放屁的话...简直恶心死了。都没有什么短程公交车或不太臭的工具可以带她们上山吗?
Wendy and Jody were in Nepal. They woke up at 3.am. to see the sunrise. Travel magazines and brochures that the girls read claimed the sunrise was one of the most beautiful attractions in that part of the county.
温蒂和乔蒂现在人在尼泊尔，她们凌晨三点起床要去看日出。两个女生在看的旅游杂志和旅行指南都声称，这一带的日出是尼泊尔境内最引人入胜的美景之一。
So, not wanting to miss out, the girls set out with the rest of the tourists. Unfortunately, goats were the only safe means of transportation up the steep and narrow cliff. Wendy plugged her nose and hoped the view would be worth it. The group arrived at the top minutes before the sunrise. Everyone watched eagerly. From where they stood, they could see for miles and miles.
所以她们为了不要错过这个机会，便和其他游客一起出发;不幸的是，要登上即陡峭又狭窄的峭壁，唯一安全的运输工具便是山羊。温蒂塞住鼻子，希望日出美景让票价花得够值。这群人在日出前几分钟抵达山顶，大家都热切地观看等待着;从她们所站之处可以看到好几英里远。
As the sun came up, brilliant hues of red, pink, and orange filled the sky. Wendy and Jody gasped. It was stunning. For a moment everything was still and the world seemed a perfect place to be.
当太阳出来时，整片天空充满了红色、粉色和橙色等灿烂色彩。温蒂和乔蒂倒抽了一口气，景色实在是漂亮极了。有好一阵子，一切似乎静止下来，整个世界也变得如此美好。
