And one, from Texas, put a hand on my thinning shoulder, and appeared to study the ground where we were standing.

还有一位来自得克萨斯州的朋友把手放在我日显单薄的肩膀上，似乎在仔细察看我和他脚下所站着的地面。

When he returned, he was standing next to my brand new above-ground swimming pool.

它回来的时候就站在我崭新的地上游泳池旁边。

Standing on the bare. ground, my head bathed by the blithe air, and uplifted into infinite space, all egotism vanishes.

站在空旷大地之上，我的头脑沐浴于欢欣大气并升腾于无限空间，一切卑劣的自高自大和自我中心消失无踪。

youdao

I'm standing on my own ground.
