An atoll is a circular reef surrounding a lagoon . 环礁是环绕着一个泻湖的环形礁石。
Sleep enveloped him like the swathing mirages that were wrestling with the brilliance of the lagoon . 睡意笼罩着他,就象缠绵脑际的蜃楼幻影正在同五光十色的环礁湖景致一比高低。
The boy with fair hair lowered himself down the last few feet of rock and began to pick his way towards the lagoon . 金发少年攀下岩石最下面的一截,又开始摸索着朝环礁湖方向走去。
The breezes that on the lagoon had chased their tails like kittens were finding their way across the platform and into the forest . 环礁湖上的轻风一阵紧接一阵,就象追逐着自己尾巴的小猫,夺路越过平台,窜进森林。
Within the irregular are of coral the lagoon was still as a mountain lake-blue of all shades and shadowy green and purple . 在珊瑚礁不规则的弧形圈里,环礁湖平静的象一个山潭--湖水呈现各种细微色差的蓝色、墨绿色和紫色。
