He held himself with a dashing erectness.

他挺直了身子。

Adam, as he pressed her arm to his side, walked with his old erectness and his head thrown rather backward as if to face all the world better.

亚当把她的胳膊按在身边，走路时仍旧挺直身体，脑袋向后仰着，仿佛是为了更好地面对这个世界。

But he had no basket of tools, and he was not walking with the old erectness, looking keenly round him; his hands were thrust in his side pockets, and his eyes rested chiefly on the ground.

但是他没有工具篮子， 也没有像往常一样直挺挺地走路， 敏锐地环顾四周。 他的手插在侧袋里， 眼睛主要盯着地面。
