The postmistress handed him back through the grill his card with a letter. 女郵政局長(zhǎng)隔著黃銅格柵把他的名片連同一封信遞了過(guò)來(lái)。

While the postmistress searched a pigeonhole he gazed at the recruiting poster with soldiers of all arms on parade: and held the tip of his baton against his nostrils, smelling freshprinted rag paper. 當(dāng)那位女郵政局長(zhǎng)在分信箱里查找的時(shí)候，他盯著那征募新兵的招貼。上面是各兵種的士兵在列隊(duì)行進(jìn)。他把報(bào)紙卷的一端舉起來(lái)按在鼻孔上，嗅著那剛印刷好的糙紙的氣味。
