渐渐

The days are gaining on the night.

白天比夜长了。

The sounds fainted away in the distance.

声音在远处失。

As the train came out of the tunnel, it picked up steam.

列车驶出隧道后加速。

The balloons dissolved high in the sky.

气球在高空中失。

By degrees their friendship grew into love.

的发展成为爱情。

Little by little she began to feel better.

她地感觉好点儿了。

The picture then dissolved into a view of the house from the outside.

画面接着转为房子的外景。

The shapes faded (away) into the night.

这些形象在夜色中失。

The sky darkled at the approaching storm.

风暴来临前天空暗了下来。

The old lady's strength is draining away.

老妇人的体力在衰竭。

An intimate friendship grew up between them.

之间产生了亲密的情。

Hurry up, they are gaining on us!

快, 赶上我了!

Towards the city limits the houses begin to thin out.

靠近城市尽头的地方房屋稀少起来。

The shelf was beginning to sag beneath the weight of the books upon it.

书架在书的重压下下弯。

He was beginning to understand the seriousness of life.

地懂得了生活的严肃性。

Her long illness gradually sapped her strength.

长期的患病地耗了她的体力。

With the continued loss of blood, his life was steadily leaking away.

流血不止, 生命的火焰熄灭。

My wish of going abroad to study English damped down.

我想出国学英语的愿望地淡漠了。

As we drove towards the desert, the vegetation became sparse.

我驱车前往沙漠，沿途的草木变得稀疏。

Little and little the rain stopped.

雨地停了。
