我使用了此链接以此来从文本中选择一些段落。但是，此解决方案似乎不适用于 wrapfig。
在以下 MWE 中，如果我想选择前 2 个段落，我可以有 2 个选项：
- 将 \Startsquiggly 命令放在 wrapfig 之前，但它不必要地增加了额外的空间。
将其放在第一段之前，但结果却是一场彻底的灾难。

Tamaulipas, a state that shares a border with Texas and has three of the busiest land cargo-crossing points into the U.S., has this year been engulfed by bloody battles between the Zetas and their old masters in the Gulf cartel. Back in the 1990s, the cartel founded the Zetas, recruiting defectors from the army special forces to be its brutal enforcers. But the Zetas broke away to smuggle their own drugs as well as carry out rampant extortion and kidnapping. The fighting has littered the Tamaulipas streets with hundreds of bodies and led to prolonged shoot-outs that have shut down schools and workplaces. The Zetas have also suffered ? hit heavily by arrests, firefights with the army and the actions of rival gangs in other states, including Sinaloa, where 28 of their alleged members were slaughtered in a prison riot. Such devastating losses could have led them to lash out against the establishment. The violence in Tamaulipas has scarred all the major political parties. Last month, triggermen silenced a mayoral candidate from the conservative National Action Party (PAN) of President Felipe Calderón, gunning him and his son down in his farm-supplies store in the town of Valle Hermoso. In nearby Nuevo Laredo, assassins wiped out two people close to the mayoral candidate of the leftist Democratic Revolution Party (PRD), then strung up banners warning, ``This is what happens to everyone who supports these f\_\_\_\_\_\_ people.'' Gubernatorial candidate Torre had been a lifelong member of the centrist Institutional Revolutionary Party (PRI), which currently controls Tamaulipas. While focusing on law and order, the 46-year-old former federal deputy had made no radical or controversial proposals. As politicians of all stripes rushed to Tamaulipas to condemn the murder, Calderón called for a united front against narco-butchery. ``I'm convinced today more than ever that we need dialogue and unity,'' he said from his presidential palace. ``Because together, Mexicans can defeat and will defeat this common enemy, which threatens to destroy not only our tranquillity but also our democratic institutions.'' Electoral officials said the Tamaulipas election would go on as scheduled, and PRI leaders promised a substitute candidate, saying they would not be intimidated. However, the campaigns have led to some fierce mudslinging among the parties. When the PRD gubernatorial candidate in the state of Quintana Roo was arrested for allegedly working with the Zetas, party leaders accused the federal government of framing him in a political persecution. Later, following leaked tapes of alleged electoral shenanigans by the PRI, its governors lashed out at the federal government for wiretapping them. PRI Senator Adolfo Toledo then blamed bad blood for creating a hostile environment that was conducive to Monday's murder. ``What has happened is terrible, but it is the result of the heated confrontations supported by the PAN and the federal government that finally ended in the first victim,'' Toledo told TIME. Voter turnout will be a key barometer of how intimidated the electorate has become, with some likely to stay at home in the same way many avoided the polls in war-torn Iraq and El Salvador. Electoral observers say the intimidation and corruption will probably lead to the courts' ultimately ruling on the results of up to half of the races. ``We are seeing more and more elections being decided by judges,'' says Francisco Abundis of the polling firm Parametria. ``That is a very bad sign.'' Looking ahead, pundits fear that the problems bedeviling these votes may be a mere taste of those that could ravage the country's next presidential election, due in 2012. \textit{-- With reporting by Dolly Mascareñas / Oaxaca} \end{document}
有什么可能的解决办法吗？
答案1
由于wrapfig会影响某些内部长度，当\Startsquiggly将 放置在 之前时，会产生不良效果wrapfig，而将 放置\Startsquiggly在 之后wrapfig则会产生令人讨厌的结果（正如您所经历的），因为这会干扰 所做的计算wrapfig。
\Startsquiggly在需要进行一些调整的情况下，可以使用以下可能的解决方案：我修改了和的定义\Endsquiggly，因此现在它们接收一个可选参数，允许调整装饰起始部分的垂直位置。使用这些新命令，我还定义了一个Squiggly环境，它也有一个可选参数，允许调整垂直位置。

Tamaulipas, a state that shares a border with Texas and has three of the busiest land cargo-crossing points into the U.S., has this year been engulfed by bloody battles between the Zetas and their old masters in the Gulf cartel. Back in the 1990s, the cartel founded the Zetas, recruiting defectors from the army special forces to be its brutal enforcers. But the Zetas broke away to smuggle their own drugs as well as carry out rampant extortion and kidnapping. The fighting has littered the Tamaulipas streets with hundreds of bodies and led to prolonged shoot-outs that have shut down schools and workplaces.
The Zetas have also suffered ? hit heavily by arrests, firefights with the army and the actions of rival gangs in other states, including Sinaloa, where 28 of their alleged members were slaughtered in a prison riot. Such devastating losses could have led them to lash out against the establishment.
The violence in Tamaulipas has scarred all the major political parties. Last month, triggermen silenced a mayoral candidate from the conservative National Action Party (PAN) of President Felipe Calderón, gunning him and his son down in his farm-supplies store in the town of Valle Hermoso. In nearby Nuevo Laredo, assassins wiped out two people close to the mayoral candidate of the leftist Democratic Revolution Party (PRD), then strung up banners warning, ``This is what happens to everyone who supports these f\_\_\_\_\_\_ people.'' Gubernatorial candidate Torre had been a lifelong member of the centrist Institutional Revolutionary Party (PRI), which currently controls Tamaulipas. While focusing on law and order, the 46-year-old former federal deputy had made no radical or controversial proposals.

As politicians of all stripes rushed to Tamaulipas to condemn the murder, Calderón called for a united front against narco-butchery. ``I'm convinced today more than ever that we need dialogue and unity,'' he said from his presidential palace. ``Because together, Mexicans can defeat and will defeat this common enemy, which threatens to destroy not only our tranquillity but also our democratic institutions.'' Electoral officials said the Tamaulipas election would go on as scheduled, and PRI leaders promised a substitute candidate, saying they would not be intimidated.
However, the campaigns have led to some fierce mudslinging among the parties. When the PRD gubernatorial candidate in the state of Quintana Roo was arrested for allegedly working with the Zetas, party leaders accused the federal government of framing him in a political persecution. Later, following leaked tapes of alleged electoral shenanigans by the PRI, its governors lashed out at the federal government for wiretapping them. PRI Senator Adolfo Toledo then blamed bad blood for creating a hostile environment that was conducive to Monday's murder. ``What has happened is terrible, but it is the result of the heated confrontations supported by the PAN and the federal government that finally ended in the first victim,'' Toledo told TIME.
Voter turnout will be a key barometer of how intimidated the electorate has become, with some likely to stay at home in the same way many avoided the polls in war-torn Iraq and El Salvador. Electoral observers say the intimidation and corruption will probably lead to the courts' ultimately ruling on the results of up to half of the races. ``We are seeing more and more elections being decided by judges,'' says Francisco Abundis of the polling firm Parametria. ``That is a very bad sign.'' Looking ahead, pundits fear that the problems bedeviling these votes may be a mere taste of those that could ravage the country's next presidential election, due in 2012.
