1. A sofa upholstered in prune plush had been translocated from opposite the door to the ingleside near the compactly furled Union Jack (an alteration which he had frequently intended to execute): the blue and white checker inlaid majolicatopped table had been placed opposite the door in the place vacated by the prune plush sofa: the walnut sideboard (a projecting angle of which had momentarily arrested his ingress) had been moved from its position beside the door to a more advantageous but more perilous position in front of the door: two chairs had been moved from right and left of the ingleside to the position originally occupied by the blue and white checker inlaid majolicatopped table.
412一把深紫红色长毛绒面沙发从门对面被搬到炉边那面卷得紧紧的英国国旗近旁（这是他曾多次打算要做的变动）。那张嵌有篮白棋盘格子花纹的马略尔卡瓷面桌子，被安放在深紫红色长毛绒面沙发腾出后的空处。胡桃木餐具柜（是它那凸出来的犄角一时挡住了他往里走着的脚步）从门旁的位置被挪到更便当却更危险、正对着门的位置去了。两把椅子从壁炉左右两侧被搬到嵌有蓝白棋盘格子花纹的马略尔卡瓷面桌子原先所占的位置去。
2. Large-scale commercial fisheries and large-scale illegal fishing operations put these traditional fishers in a perilous position.
大规模的商业渔业和大规模非法捕捞作业的渔民把这些传统的地位岌岌可危。
