“她們靠吃什么活著呢？”愛麗絲總是最關(guān)心吃喝的問題。

“她們靠吃糖漿生活。”睡鼠想了一會(huì)兒說。

`Tell us a story!' said the March Hare.

`Yes, please do!' pleaded Alice.

`Once upon a time there were three little sisters,' the Dormouse began in a great hurry; `and their names were Elsie, Lacie, and Tillie; and they lived at the bottom of a well--'

`What did they live on?' said Alice, who always took a great interest in questions of eating and drinking.

`They lived on treacle,' said the Dormouse, after thinking a minute or two.

`They couldn't have done that, you know,' Alice gently remarked; `they'd have been ill.'

`So they were,' said the Dormouse; `VERY ill.'

Alice tried to fancy to herself what such an extraordinary ways of living would be like, but it puzzled her too much, so she went on: `But why did they live at the bottom of a well?'
