- 正当在悉尼刚刚建起的殖民地前景一片黑暗之际,一艘补给船突然来到悉尼海岬。
The prospects of the colony at Sydney had grown very black, when a store-ship suddenly appeared off the Heads. - 当船只朝南航行时,你不会很确切地发现南极大陆,而是在四周看见冰山、岛屿、海岬和海湾。
When you sail south you don’t exactly find the Antarctic continent. Rather, it gathers round you in the shape of icebergs, islands, coves and bays. - 我们记得这拐角处形成了一个伸向大街的海岬,它形成一个几尺见方的能挡住枪弹和霰弹、也能挡住人的视线的地方。
