At Wuthering Heights it always sounded on quiet days following a great thaw or a season of steady rain. (Emily Bront?: Wuthering Heights)

(William Thackeray: Vanity Fair) 【译文】吉恩夫人时常跟着轮椅散步。谁也看得出来老头儿非常喜欢她，见她进来就笑嘻嘻地连连点头，见她出去又哼哼卿卿地表示不愿意，到门一关上，更忍不住呜呜地哭起来。

5.The pompous vanity of the old schoolmistress, the foolish good-humour of her sister, the silly chat and scandal of the elder girls, and the frigid correctness of the governesses equally annoyed her; and she had no soft maternal heart, this unlucky girl, other wise the prattle and talk of the young children, with whose care she was chiefly entrusted, might have soothed and interested her but she lived among them two years, and not one was sorry that she went away.

【译文】女校长最爱空架子和虚面子；她妹妹脾气好得痴呆混沌；年级大的学生喜欢说些无聊的闲话，讲讲人家的隐私；女教师们又全是一丝不苟的老古板。这一切照样让她生气。她的主要任务是管小学生。按理说，听着小孩儿唧唧呱呱，倒可以消愁解闷。无奈她天生缺少母性，和孩子们混了两年，临走没有一个人舍不得她。
