1. The train cuts through infinite territory, most of it flat and boring, and it seems to me that the ceaseless rhythm of the wheels is like scissors cutting a three-thousand-mile rip through my life. 列车飞快地穿过茫茫无际的大地——大部分土地平坦,但令人感到厌烦。对我来说,车轮不间断地发出的有节奏的声音就象一把剪刀,咔嚓咔嚓地在我的生命长河中剪出了一条长达 3.000 英里的口子。
2. Jane: I´m going to get a tape,some glue or paste,a stapler and a pair of scissors. 珍妮:我要买一卷录音带, 一些粘胶和浆糊, 一个订书机和一把剪刀.
3. I have bought a small pair of scissors to cut my nails. 我买了一把小剪刀剪指甲。
