英文释义

名词 n.
  1. The light of dawn. uncountable
    — It came from the southeast, a distant hissing, a sandwhisper. Presently he saw the faraway outline of the creature’s track against the dawnlight and realized he had never before seen a maker this large, never heard of one this size. It appeared to be more than half a league long, and the rise of the sandwave at its cresting head was like the approach of a mountain.
