在第一段中,有这么一句话When night came she was put in the upper bed and told that God would look after her.
显然,look after 在这里应该翻译成“注视”比较恰当.小女孩的父母告诉小女孩,上帝会注视着你.
It was quiet for several minutes, and then the child was heard to whisper, "Mother was God?"
最后一句话,小女孩听到那个乘客的话以后,以为是上帝在跟他说话.小女孩被听见低声地说,妈妈,是上帝吗?
小女孩被误以为是上帝的乘客说了以后,就再也没有像中间那样不停地说话了.在加上开头,父母的话.可以判断小女孩是害怕GOD的.
