Rope walk
原声例句
彼得兔和他的朋友们（下） There are rope walks, and washing that flaps on waggling lines above banks of stony shingle, littered with seaweed, whelk shells and dead crabs—very different from Aunt Porcas's clothes-lines over the clean green grass. 洗过的衣服在石卵石堤岸上方摇摆不定的线上拍打着， 散落着海藻、螺壳和死螃蟹——这与 Porcas 姨妈在干净的绿草上晾衣绳截然不同。

Ropewalk（重定向自Rope walk）
 A ropewalk is a long straight narrow lane, or a covered pathway, where long strands of material are laid before being twisted into rope. Due to the length of some ropewalks, workers may use bicycles to get from one end to the other. Ropewalks historically were harsh sweatshops, and frequently caught fire, as hemp dust ignites easily and burns fiercely. Rope was essential in sailing ships and the standard length for a British Naval Rope was 1000 ft (305 m). A sailing ship such as HMS Victory required over 20 miles (32 km) of rope. |
