a shrill sound of laughter and of amused voices--voices of men, women, and children--resounded in the street while this wine game lasted.
抢酒的游戏正在进行。街上响起了尖声的欢笑和兴高采烈的喧哗--男人、女人和孩子的喧哗。
the minutes seemed like hours, but then there came the shrill sound of the train whistle.
每一分钟都变得像一个小时那样漫长,终于凄厉的汽笛鸣响。
a faint, shrill sound like that of a young bird; a chirp.
唧唧声象小鸟发出的轻轻的尖叫声;
even the sailor on the atlantic and pacific is awakened by his voice; but its shrill sound never roused me from my slumbers.
甚至大西洋、太平洋上的水手都是一听到它的声音就起身,可是它的啼叫从没有把我从沉睡中唤醒过。
