1.They all drew to the fire, Mother in the big chair with Beth at her feet, Meg and Amy perched on either arm of the chair, and Jo leaning on the back, where no one would see any sign of emotion if the letter should happen to be touching.
【难句解析】draw to 意思是“逼近、接近”;mother和Beth后均省略了sat;
【句子翻译】她们都围近火边,妈妈坐在大椅子上,贝思坐在她脚边,梅格和艾美一边一个靠在椅子扶手上,乔故意倚在背后,这样读到信中感人的地方时别人也不会觉察到她表情的变化。
