There was nothing so VERY remarkable in that; nor did Alice think it so VERY much out of the way to hear the Rabbit say to itself, `Oh dear! Oh dear! I shall be late!' (when she thought it over afterwards, it occurred to her that she ought to have wondered at this, but at the time it all seemed quite natural); but when the Rabbit actually TOOK A WATCH OUT OF ITS WAISTCOAT- POCKET, and looked at it, and then hurried on, Alice started to her feet, for it flashed across her mind that she had never before seen a rabbit with either a waistcoat-pocket, or a watch to take out of it, and burning with curiosity, she ran across the field after it, and fortunately was just in time to see it pop down a large rabbit-hole under the hedge.

参考译文:
看到一只粉红眼睛的兔子,并不是什么值得大惊小怪的事,甚至听到兔子自言自语地说:“哦,天哪,哦,天哪,我要迟到了。”爱丽丝也没感到有什么离奇的,虽然事后回想起来,她认为应该对这事感到惊怪,可当时这一切好像是很自然的事。但是,那只兔子竟然从背心口袋里掏出一只表,还看了看,然后又匆匆跑了。这时,爱丽丝一下子跳了起来,脑子里闪过一个念头:从来没见过兔子穿着有口袋的背心,而且还能从口袋里掏出一只表来。她忍不住好奇,紧紧跟着兔子穿过一片田野,刚好赶上看见兔子窜进了灌木丛下的一个大洞里。
