1. I rolled the strip around the stick and it finally revealed its secrets. I rewrote the coded message onto a
papyrus.
我把纸条卷到木棒上,秘密显示出来了,我把解码信息抄在了一张纸莎草纸上。
2. Although
papyrus was widely used over a long period of time, other materials were also used for writing in ancient Egypt.
在古埃及,虽然纸莎草纸曾在一个长时期中被广泛使用,但是也有其它的书写材料。
3. The result was originals as long and narrow as
papyrus cascading out of the typewriter and extending along the floor as one wrote.
这么写出来的原稿象莎草纸的古卷一般又窄又长,在写作进行之中从打字机里喷涌而出,顺着地板流淌。
