I was on the point of chaffing him on his state.

But Passepartout persisted in chaffing him by asking him if he made much by his present occupation.

他也随和路路通哈哈大笑了一阵。这时，路路通就高兴地问他：" 您这种职业是不是出息很大？"

I stopped to think, for his tone had changed, and I felt sure he was chaffing me.

我停下来了， 因为他语气变了， 我确信他是在跟我开玩笑。

'You must be very hard to please, ' returned Kitty, in the bright, chaffing way she could assume so easily.

They were weighed, and then shot down a rapid slide, whose oak and iron work was polished by the constant chaffing of bales and cases.

他们被称重， 然后被快速滑下， 橡木和铁制品被捆包和箱子不断摩擦抛光。

An enchanting smile lit up her grave face, and she fondled them; she spoke little chaffing words which Kitty, ignorant though she was of Chinese, could tell were like caresses.

迷人微笑在她严肃脸上绽放， 她抚摸它们。她说了一些开玩笑话，尽管基蒂不懂中文，但她能看出这些话就像是爱抚。
