《愛麗絲漫游仙境》選段
Well, be off, then! said the Pigeon in a sulky tone, as it settled down again into its nest. Alice crouched down among the trees as well as she could, for her neck kept getting entangled among the branches, and every now and then she had to stop and untwist it. After a while she remembered that she still held the pieces of mushroom in her hands, and she set to work very carefully, nibbling first at one and then at the other, and growing sometimes taller and sometimes shorter, until she had succeeded in bringing herself down to her usual height.
“哼，那就滾開！”鴿子生氣地說著，同時又飛下去鉆進它的窩里了。愛麗絲費勁兒地往樹林里蹲，因為她的脖子常常會被樹叉掛住，要隨時停下來排解。過了一會，她想起了手里的兩塊蘑菇，于是她小心地咬咬這塊，又咬咬那塊，因此她一會兒L長高，一會縮小，最后終于使自己成了平常的高度了。
