As the train came to a sudden halt, like all other curious passengers, I opened the velvet green curtains of my train compartment in hopes to catch of glimpse of what was wrong. As I pulled the curtain, I had to adjust my eyes to the violent sunlight for a better view of what was going on. Before my eyes were used to such brightness, the train started moving again. Soon it passed a tunnel, and before I knew it, I arrived at Dover. Anywhere you turn you'd see a group of brightly dressed tourists busily engaged in their own little world clicking away with their cameras.

这一段用了halt, adjust to, tunnel和 engaged in.写法比较像小说里面的一个段落.
中文翻译（中文翻译的不是很好,不过大概意思就是这样的）：
当火车突然停了下来（halt）的时候,我和所有其他好奇的乘客一样,把车厢内深绿色的窗帘拉开,试图着可以看到到底发生了什么事.当我刚把窗帘拉开,在眼睛还没有完全习惯那（adjust ... to）刺眼的阳光时,火车又开始开动了.很快的,火车经过了一个隧道（tunnel）,更在很快的就到达了多佛尔[英国的一个地名].不管你往那里看,都可以看到一群穿着鲜艳服饰的旅客们,沉醉在（engaged in...）他们自己的世界里,忙碌的按着相机快门.
