Why , maidy he frequently , with unconscious irony , gave her this pet name , the prettiest milker i ve got in my dairy ; you mustn t get so fagged as this at the first breath of summer weather , or we shall be finely put to for want of ee by dog - days , shan t we , mr clare “喲,我的大小姐”他經常這樣親切地稱呼她,卻不知道對她正是一種諷刺, “你是我們奶牛場最漂亮的擠奶姑娘了夏天的天氣才剛剛開始,你就困乏成這個樣子,要是到了三伏天,你就不能在這兒住了,那時候我們就遭殃了。

Howsomever , these gamisters do certainly keep back their milk to - day . folks , we must lift up a stave or two - that s the only cure for t . songs were often resorted to in dairies hereabout as an enticement to the cows when they showed signs of withholding their usual yield ; and the band of milkers at this request burst into melody - in purely business - like tones , it is true , and with no great spontaneity ; the result , according to their own belief , being a decided improvement during the song s continuance 當奶牛一出現出奶量比平常減少的跡象,人們往往就采取在牛奶場唱歌的辦法,想用這種辦法把牛奶引出來老板要求唱歌,這群擠牛奶的工人們就放開喉嚨唱起來唱的完全是一種應付公事的調子,老實說,一點也沒有自愿的意思結果,就像他們相信的那樣,在他們不停地唱歌的時候,出奶的狀況的確有了改變。

Jack dollop , a hore s - bird of a fellow we had here as milker at one time , sir , courted a young woman over at mellstock , and deceived her as he had deceived many afore . but he had another sort o woman to reckon wi this time , and it was not the girl herself “先生,你不知道,從前我們場里雇了一個攪黃油的工人,名字叫杰克多洛普,那個婊子養的和梅爾斯托克的一個姑娘搞上了,他以前騙過許多姑娘,后來又把她給騙了。

During the day the animals obsequiously followed the shadow of the smallest tree as it moved round the stem with the diurnal roll ; and when the milkers came they could hardly stand still for the flies 白天,隨著地球的轉動,太陽也繞著樹干移動,因此哪怕是最小的一棵樹木,奶牛也要跟隨著它的陰影轉動擠奶工人過來擠奶時,由于蚊蠅的叮咬,奶牛幾乎都無法安靜地站著。

She saw nothing at supper - time of the superior milker who had commented on the story , and asked no questions about him , the remainder of the evening being occupied in arranging her place in the bed - chamber 吃晚飯的時候,她沒有看見那個評論故事的擠牛奶的上等工人,也沒有問起過他,晚上剩余的時間她都在寢室里安排自己睡覺的地方。

A reply , in the shape of why ? came as it were out of the belly of a dun cow in the stalls ; it had been spoken by a milker behind the animal , whom she had not hitherto perceived 有人接口說了句“為什么” ,聲音似乎是從牛棚里一頭黃牛的肚子里發出來的這句話是那頭牛后面的一個擠奶工人說的,苔絲直到這時才看見他。
