When Little America was first set up on the Ross Ice Field, its tiny buildings made black spots against the surrounding whiteness.
小亚美利加第一次在罗斯冰原成立的时候，它的微小的建筑和周围的白色对照，好似黑色斑点。
Long before the winter was over, however, snow had banked and drifted over all except the tallest points.
然而，远在冬季结束之前，雪堆积起来，漫天飘落，只有最高处没有积雪。
A bit of the roof of the Mess Hall could be seen at times.
有时可以看到食堂的屋顶。
Some of the tall radio towers managed to stay clear.
一些高高的广播塔也成功没被积雪覆盖。
But the rest of the buildings could be located only by the unevenness of the snow’s surface where an airplane hangar, the dogs’ quarters, the Mess Hall, the gymnasium, or some other building lay buried.
但是其他的建筑只能通过积雪表面的不均匀性来定位，那里有被积雪盖着的飞机棚、狗窝、食堂、体育馆，或者其他的建筑。
