Correct or improve the translation of the following Chinese sentences.原文：她口角边渐渐地有了笑影，脸上也白胖了。译文：Little by little a trace of smile appeared at the corner of her mouth, while her face became white and fat.改译：
【正确答案】：

LITTLE BY LITTLE A TRACE OF SMILE APPEARED AT THE CORNER OF HER MOUTH, WHILE HER FACE BECAME WHITER AND PLUMPER. 

【题目解析】：本题可从词义的选择入手。原文中的白胖了，并不是字面意义真的肥胖了，而是更圆润丰满了，所以选用plump。现在的白胖也是跟以前作对比，所以应该用比较级形式“whiter and plumper”。Little by little a trace of smile appeared at the corner of her mouth, while her face became whiter and plumper.
