"Good morning," said the little prince.
“你好。”小王子说道。
"Good morning," said the railway switchman.
“你好。”扳道工说道。
"What do you do here?" the little prince asked.
“你在这里做什么?”小王子问。
"I sort out travelers, in bundles of a thousand," said the switchman. "I send off the trains that carry them; now to the right, now to the left."
“我一包包地分选旅客,按每千人一包。”扳道工说,“我打发这些运载旅客的列车,一会儿发往右方,一会儿发往左方。”
And a brilliantly lighted express train shook the switchman's cabin as it rushed by with a roar like thunder.
这时,一列灯火明亮的快车,雷鸣般地响着,把扳道房震得颤颤悠悠。
"They are in a great hurry," said the little prince. "What are they looking for?"
“他们真匆忙呀,”小王子说,“他们要寻找什么?”
"Not even the locomotive engineer knows that," said the switchman.
“开机车的人自己也不知道。”扳道工说道。
And a second brilliantly lighted express thundered by, in the opposite direction.
于是,第二列灯火通明的快车又朝着相反的方向轰隆轰隆地开过去。
"Are they coming back already?" demanded the little prince.
