With his boyish face and slender build , he ( david ho ) could more easily pass for a teenager than for a 44 - year - old father of three , or for that matter , for a orld - renowned scientist 娃娃脸和瘦瘦的身材，使何大一看起来更像是和青少年，而不像一位44岁，育有3名子女的父亲，更不像是知名的科学家。
Something morbid and significant attached to that sunburn , was martin s thought as he returned to a study of the face , narrow , with high cheek - bones and cavernous hollows , and graced with as delicate and fine an aquiline nose as martin had ever seen 那晒黑的皮肤上有某种病态的东西，令人纳闷，马丁回头再研究他的面部时想。那脸瘦瘦的，颧骨隆起，面颊凹陷，配上一个马丁从没有见过的那类精致漂亮的鹰钩鼻，眼睛的大小毫不奇特。
A very few moments after that , a young woman , with a slight girlish form , a sweet spare face in which there was no vestige of colour , and large widely opened patient eyes , rose from the seat where he had observed her sitting , and came to speak to him 过了一会儿一个年轻妇女从座位上站起，向他走来，要跟他说话。他刚才还看见她坐在那儿。小小个子，像个姑娘，一张瘦瘦的甜甜的脸，没有丝毫血色，一对睁得很大的大眼睛，表现出听天由命的神态。
Col . grangerford was very tall and very slim , and had a darkish - paly complexion , not a sign of red in it anywheres ; he was clean shaved every morning all over his thin face , and he had the thinnest kind of lips , and the thinnest kind of nostrils , and a high nose , and heavy eyebrows , and the blackest kind of eyes , sunk so deep back that they seemed like they was looking out of caverns at you , as you may say 每天早上，总把那瘦瘦的脸刮得干干净净。他是薄嘴唇，薄鼻翼，高鼻子，浓眉毛。眼睛漆黑，深深地陷在眼眶里，看着你时，不妨说如同从山洞里朝外望着你。
One afternoon i had then been three weeks at lowood , as i was sitting with a slate in my hand , puzzling over a sum in long division , my eyes , raised in abstraction to the window , caught sight of a figure just passing : i recognised almost instinctively that gaunt outline ; and when , two minutes after , all the school , teachers included , rose en masse , it was not necessary for me to look up in order to ascertain whose entrance they thus greeted 一天下午那时我到罗沃德已经三星期了，我手里拿了块写字板坐着，正为长除法中的一个总数发窘，眼睛呆呆地望着窗外，看到有一个人影闪过。我几乎本能地认出了这瘦瘦的轮廓。因此两分钟后，整个学校的人，包括教师在内都全体起立时，我没有必要抬起头来后过究竟，便知道他们在迎接谁进屋了。
The student said " hello " to all of us when we met him . he was thin and his face was black , seems that he was undernourished . his father brushed the chairs with his sleeves immediately , asked us to sit down . his mother leaned the door with foolish smile all the time . it was even poorer of their family than our thought . the lime had started to come off as the wind and rain damage , the sunshine got through their house , shadow was remained on the sap of floor . two small rooms , a kitchen , a quadrate desk and some chairs here , there were not anything else ; the other one was bedroom , two beds were squeezed together . the bedding wasn ' t new any more and turned white , cotton was come out from the clothes . the only thing was what one old desk was cleaned well , it should be his book desk , there were some books on it 那位学生见我们来了,高兴地向我们问好.他看上去瘦瘦的,脸色黝黑,一副严重营养不良的样子.他的父亲赶紧用袖子在长凳上擦拭了几下,笨拙地端给我们坐.他的母亲一直倚着门槛傻傻地笑.他的家比我想像的更穷.墙面上的石灰经不起风雨的侵蚀而纷纷脱落,阳光透过砖缝射进屋里来,在坑坑洼洼的地面上留下一个个斑驳的影子.两间小屋,一间是灶间,除了一张方桌和几张长板凳外,别无他物;另一间是卧室,两张床挤在一起,被褥旧得发白,垫被连棉絮都露在外面.唯一整理的井井有条的是一张旧桌子,应该是他的书桌吧,上面整整齐齐放着几本书
