On this lunar new year s day , i was having breakfast under a tree when a group of birds flew near . before we had even placed the fruit on the tree , the birds began chirping loudly , calling attention to their presence 今年农历大年初一那一天，我坐在树下吃早餐，一群小鸟飞来，当时我们还没放水果在树上，那群小鸟竟然声在那里鼓噪，提醒我注意到它们的存在我赶紧去拿苹果给它们。
When it was yet light enough to work and read , she had neither engaged herself in her usual work , nor had she read to him . she had employed herself in both ways , at his side under the tree , many and many a time ; but , this time was not quite like any other , and nothing could make it so 在天色还明亮可以工作和读书时，她没有做日常的女红针黹，也没有念书给爸爸听她曾不知多少次坐在树下他的身边，做过针线活儿，给他念过书，这一回却不同，她没有理由那样做。
All at once , instantly in close connection , there rose up the memory of the look platon had fixed upon him , as he sat under the tree , of the shot heard at that spot , of the dogs howl , of the guilty faces of the soldiers as they ran by , of the smoking gun , of karataevs absence at that halting - place ; and he was on the point of fully realising that karataev had been killed , but at the same instant , at some mysterious summons , there rose up the memory of a summer evening he had spent with a beautiful polish lady on the verandah of his house at kiev 突然间，如烟往事在脑际涌现出来：有普拉东坐在树下投来的目光，有那个地方传来的枪声，狗的叫声，两个法国人从他身旁跑过去时带有犯罪的面部表情，那支还在冒烟的枪，想起在这个宿营地永远也见不着的卡拉塔耶夫，他正要弄清楚卡拉塔耶夫是否已被打死，但是，就在这一刹那，他也不知道为什么，他忽然想起他和一个美丽的波兰姑娘在他在基辅的住宅阳台上度过的那个夏夜。
