the scene of the singular story which we had listened to in the morning.

It was a poky, little, shabby-genteel place, where four lines of dingy two-storied brick houses looked out into a small railed-in enclosure,
這是一些既隘狹窄破落而又虛擺場(chǎng)面的窮街陋巷，四排灰暗的兩層磚房排列在一個(gè)周圍有鐵欄桿的圍墻之內(nèi)。
where a lawn of weedy grass and a few clumps of faded laurel-bushes made a hard fight against a smoke-laden and uncongenial atmosphere.
院子里是一片雜草叢生的草坪，草坪上幾簇枯萎的月桂小樹叢正在煙霧彌漫和很不適意的環(huán)境里頑強(qiáng)地生長(zhǎng)著。
Three gilt balls and a brown board with "JABEZ WILSON" in white letters, upon a corner house,
在街道拐角的一所房子上方，有一塊棕色木板和三個(gè)鍍金的圓球，上面刻有"杰貝茲·威爾遜"這幾個(gè)白色大字，
announced the place where our red-headed client carried on his business.
這個(gè)招牌向人們表示，這就是我們紅頭發(fā)委托人做買賣的所在地。
Sherlock Holmes stopped in front of it with his head on one side and looked it all over, with his eyes shining brightly between puckered lids.
歇洛克·福爾摩斯在那房子前面停了下來，歪著腦袋細(xì)細(xì)察看了一遍這所房子，眼睛在皺紋密布的眼皮中間炯炯發(fā)光。
Then he walked slowly up the street, and then down again to the corner, still looking keenly at the houses.
他隨即漫步走到街上，然后再返回那個(gè)拐角，眼睛注視著那些房子。
Finally he returned to the pawnbroker's, and, having thumped vigorously upon the pavement with his stick two or three times,
最后他回到那家當(dāng)票坐落的地方，用手杖使勁地敲打了兩三下那里的人行道，
he went up to the door and knocked.
之后便走到當(dāng)票門口敲門。
