What he really wanted was to dive off the bridge, smash through the ice and sink down to the bottom to freeze there like a dead fish. 他真想一下子跳下去,头朝下,砸破了冰,沉下去,像个死鱼似的冻在冰里。
Though I could not swim,I just managed to keep my head above water by kicking my legs about until somebody reached me and dragged me to the river bank. 尽管我不会游泳,但我还是蹬着腿,极力不让自己沉下去,直到有人过来把我拉上岸。
