There were a great many holidays at Plumfield, and one of the most delightful was the yearly apple–picking.

梅园有很多节假日，其中最愉快的是一年一度摘苹果的季节。

We had dinner plans the day she collapsed and were going apple picking that weekend, but we had slept apart the night before.

在她病倒的那天，我们计划了晚餐，而且约好周末去摘苹果，但前一晚我们没有睡在一起。

The gardeners regularly check over the apples, picking out any that are past their best so I can use them before they're only suitable for the pig pale.

园丁会定期检查苹果，挑出那些已经过了最佳赏味期的，这样我就可以在它们只适合喂猪之前利用它们。

Why yes, I am going apple picking this fall, at my grocery store where the tedious labor has already been done for me by a farmer.

为什么是的， 今年秋天我要去我的杂货店摘苹果，那里的农夫已经为我完成了繁琐的工作。
