走出幾步以后，他在一個路燈桿子下站住，以他特有的姿勢會心而默默地笑了起來。

還是應(yīng)該等到明天再去。

It is clear from what that surly fellow said that there are others besides ourselves who are anxious about the matter, and I should..."

從那個粗魯家伙的談吐中，可以清楚地知道，除了我們之外，還有其它人也急于知道此事，因此，我應(yīng)該..."

His remarks were suddenly cut short by a loud hubbub which broke out from the stall which we had just left.

他的話忽然被一片喧噪的吵鬧聲打斷了，聲音是從我們剛剛離開的那個貨攤那里爆發(fā)出來的。
