It lay well out, a good league from the coast, which was crowned by a sharp peak 400 to 500 meters high.

船正在大海中，距岸整整有一里，岸上有高四百至五百米的尖峰矗立。

There was a strong, sharp peak of emission lasting less than a second, followed by a longer, weaker pulse lasting for several more seconds.

出现了一个持续不到一秒的强烈、尖锐的发射峰值，接着是一个持续数秒的较长、较弱的脉冲。

Oh, look at this mountain over there with the snow and the sharp peaks.

哦，看那边这座山， 白雪皑皑，山峰尖锐。

Here and there stood sharp peaks, lean spires that rose as high as 200 feet; farther off, a succession of steeply cut cliffs sporting a grayish tint, huge mirrors that reflected the sparse rays of a sun half drowned in mist.

到处都有峭削的尖峰，像直升到二百英尺高的细针，远一点，削戍尖峰的一连串悬崖，带着灰白的色泽，像一面一面的大镜，反映出一些半浸在云雾中的阳光。

That sharp peak might hence be considered as the gnomon of a vast sun dial, the shadow projected from which on a certain day would point out the road to the centre of the earth.

因此， 那个尖峰可能被认为是巨大日晷的日规，在某一天从日晷投射出的阴影将指出通往地球中心的道路。
