46、 then immediately backwards again.译文：我把主面板上的启动杆往前推了一英寸，然后又立刻向后拉。分析：该句描述的是时间旅行者第一次开启时光机器的场景。the starting lever意为“启动杆”，push forwards表示“启动”，push backwards 表示“制动”。3 Night came as if a lamp was being turned out,and in another moment came the day.译文：夜幕降临了，仿佛一盏灯正在熄灭，转眼间，白昼就来临了。分析：该句描述的是时间旅行昼夜交替的快速。本句用了比喻的修辞手法，将夜晚的到来之快与熄灯这一动作进行类比，突出说明时间旅行中夜 晚降临之快。and后面的句子是倒装句。谓语动词came前置。4 If I stopped and the same space was being occupied by something else,we would be forced together and explode like a bomb!译文：如果我停下来，同一空间被别的东西占据，我们就会被挤在一起，然 后像炸弹一样爆炸！分析：该句if引导的条件状语从句，从句用一般过去时，根据主将从现的原 则，主句用过去将来时。
