Monkeys sat in the fig tree's upper branches.

猴子坐在无花果树的上部树枝上。

The sun twinkled through their upper branches and their narrow light leaves.

阳光透过它们上面的枝条和狭窄的浅色叶子闪烁着光芒。

All the upper branches of the rivers are fairly laden with lakes, like orchard trees with fruit.

所有河流的上游支流都充满了湖泊，就像结满果实的果树。

The upper branches of the Yosemite streams are buried every winter beneath a heavy mantle of snow, and set free in the spring in magnificent floods.

每年冬天，优胜美地溪流的上游支流都被厚厚的积雪掩埋，并在春季以汹涌的洪水涌出。

The trunk becomes deep brown and rough, like that of the Mountain Pine, while the young cones are of a strange, dull, blackish-blue color, clustered on the upper branches.

树干变得深棕色， 粗糙，就像山松的树干一样， 而幼球果呈奇异、暗淡的黑蓝色， 簇生在上部的树枝上。

In this way the volume of the upper branches of the river is nearly doubled during the day, rising and falling as regularly as the tides of the sea.

这样一来，河流上游支流的流量在白天几乎翻了一番，像大海的潮汐一样有规律地涨落。

Close beside them grew a rose-bush, covered with scarlet hips; one or two belated clusters of creamy blossom still hung from an upper branch, swaying mournfully and heavy with raindrops.

在他们旁边长着一丛玫瑰，上面长满了猩红色的臀部。一两朵迟来的奶油花还挂在高处的树枝上，悲哀地摇曳着，带着沉重的雨滴。

The extreme top of the tree is a thick blunt shoot pointing straight to the zenith like an admonishing finger. The cones stand erect like casks on the upper branches.

树的最顶端是一根又粗又钝的枝条，像一根警示的手指直指天顶。锥体像木桶一样直立在上部树枝上。

The cones are grayish-green when ripe, cylindrical, about from three to four inches long by one and a half to two inches wide, and stand upright on the upper branches.

球果成熟时呈灰绿色，圆柱形，长约三至四英寸，宽约一英寸半至两英寸，直立在上部树枝上。

Observe that silvery dance upon the upper branches of the pear-tree, and now a little lower, and now on the whole mass of boughs, while, through their shifting intricacies, the moonbeams fall aslant into the room.

观察梨树上部树枝上的银色舞蹈，现在稍微低一点，现在在整个树枝上，同时，通过它们错综复杂的变化，月光斜射到房间里。
