我对气味有一种疯狂的感知能力。就像一只短腿猎犬，我就像一个5英尺高的短腿猎犬。

I have an insane sense of smell. Like a basset hound. I'm like a 5ft basset hound.

短腿猎犬，以猎犬独有的样子，在田野里疾跑，鼻子着地。

The basset, in the manner of hunting dogs, dashed across the field, nose to the ground.

他的短腿和他的身长不成比例。

His short legs were not in proportion to his long body.

他有两条长腿，而我有两条短腿。

He has long legs and I have short legs.

我再次和安斯沃思太太有联系必是在将近3个月以后了。实际上，她来电话前，我已经感到奇怪，这么长时间她那3只短腿猎犬竟然一点病症也没有。

It must have been nearly three months before I heard from Ainsworth, and in fact I had begun to wonder at the Bassets' long symptomless run when she came on the phone.
