16 “So the poor knight is to be left sticking in the hedge, is he?” asked Mr. Brooke, still watching the river, and playing with the wild rose in his buttonhole.

17 Buying gold may be a hedge against inflation.

购买黄金不失为防止通货膨胀的上策.

18 He hedged his earlier comments about the need for new management.

19 He pulls over a night-lantern and ties its tail ribbons to the hedge behind us.

20 I remembered the day I’d gone to her through the hedge to learn about our futures.
