1. A straggly group of iron roofs turns out to be a sizeable village, and the boat is steered into the pebbly beach to unload. 一片零零落落的铁皮屋顶原来是个相当大的村庄，于是小艇靠了岸，在满是卵石的海滩上下客卸货。
2. Some hours into the journey, the road suddenly became unrideable, the pavement giving way to dirt, then pebbly gravel and then, on a very steep pitch, to a mass of sharp, broken boulders. 在我上路走了几个小时以后，道路突然变得不能骑车行进了，铺砌的路面变成了泥土路，接着是多卵石的沙砾路面，然后在一片很陡的斜坡上道路变成了大堆尖棱、破碎的石块。
3. It was not much of a place, a small, modernized, stucco villa, with a hot pebbly garden, and in it a stone basin with torpid gold-fish, and a statue of Diana and her hounds against the wall. 那里地势局促——一座不大的现代式灰墁别墅而外，另有一个炎澳的软石路面的花园，石砌水池之中浮游着一些懒散的金鱼，池旁*墙处并有一尊女猎神及其猎犬的雕像等等。
