Thus far, our holiday has been simply a friendly sign of the survival of the love of letters amongst a people too busy to g any more. As such it is precious as the sign of an indestructible instinct. Perhaps the

time is already come when it ought to be, and will be, something else; when the sluggard intellect of this continent will lo under its iron lids and fill the postponed expectation of the world with something better than the exertions of mechanical of dependence, our long apprenticeship to the learning of other lands, draws to a close. The millions that around us are ru life, cannot always be fed on the mere remains of foreign harvests. Events, actions arise, that must be sung, that will sing Who can doubt that poetry will revive lead in a new age, as the star in the constellation Harp, which now flames in our z astronomers announce, shall one day be the polestar for a thousand years?

海风微微的吹过岛上,白日里剩下的热气全吹走了。夜晚是很静寂的。全个岛落在一层柔软的黑暗的网里。只有空中闪烁着无数的明星,这里的星似乎比在别的地方都明亮。人们常常这样说:白天的太阳使这个岛特别明亮,使这个岛特别灿烂。

灯光渐次的灭了。一些建筑稀落的耸立在黑暗里,被茂盛的树木掩盖着。路是几条螺旋形的山路,交缠着,从岩蜿蜒的伸下来,到了下面便是比较热闹的街市,这时沿街的商店已经大半关了门。路再伸过去,那外面一层,靠便是几家旅馆,都是些三层的楼房,从这些新式窗户里射出来较多的灯光在海面上。

To a professional critic (I have been one myself) theatre-going is the curse of Adam. The play is the evil he is paid to end

sweat of his brow, and the sooner it is over, the better. This would seem to place him in irreconcilable opposition to the p playgoer, from whose point of view the longer the play, the more entertainment he gets for his money. It does in fact so p especially in the provinces, where the playgoer goes to the theatre for the sake of the play solely, and insists to effectivel number of hours? entertainment that touring managers are sometimes seriously embarrassed by the brevity of the London have to deal in.

For in London the critics are reinforced by a considerable body of person who go to the theatre as many others go to chu their best clothes and compare them with other people?s; to be in the fashion, and have something to talk about at dinner adore a pet performer; to pass the evening anywhere rather than at home; in short, for any or every reason except interest art as such. In fashionable centers the number of irreligious people who go to church, of unmusical people who go to con operas, and of undramatic people who go to the theatre, is so prodigious that sermons have been cut down to ten minutes two hours; and, even at that, congregations sit longing for the benediction and audiences for the final curtain, so that they away to the lunch or supper they really crave for, after arriving as late as late as (or later than) the hour of beginning can made for them.

Thus from the stalls and in the Press an atmosphere of hypocrisy spreads. Nobody says

straight out that genuine drama is a tedious nuisance, and that to ask people to endure more than

two hours of it (with two long intervals of reliet) is an intolerable imposition.

这几天心里颇不宁静。今晚在院子里坐着乘凉,忽然想起日日走过的荷塘,在这满月的光里,总该另有一番样子渐地升高了,墙外马路上孩子们的欢笑,已经听不见了;妻在屋里拍着闰儿,迷迷糊糊地哼着眠歌。我悄悄地披上门出去。

沿着荷塘,是一条曲折的小煤屑路。这是一条幽僻的路;白天也少人走,夜晚更加寂寞。荷塘四面,长着许多树的。路的一旁,是些杨柳,和一些不知道名字的树。没有月光的晚上,这路上阴森森的,有些怕人。今晚却很好也还是淡淡的。

路上只我一个人,背着手踱着。这一片天地好像是我的;我也像超出了平常的自己,到了另一世界里。我爱热闹爱群居,也爱独处。像今晚上,一个人在这苍茫的月下,什么都可以想,什么都可以不想,便觉是个自由的人。要做的事,一定要说的话,现在都可不理。这是独处的妙处,我且受用这无边的荷香月色好了。

It is simple enough to say that since books have classes —— fiction, biography, poetry —— we should separate them an each what it is right that each should give us. Yet few people ask from books what books can give us. Most commonly w books with blurred and divided minds, asking of fiction that it shall be true, of poetry that it shall be false, of biography t flattering, of history that it shall enforce our own prejudices. If we could banish all such preconceptions when we read, th an admirable beginning. Do not dictate to your author; try to become him. Be his fellow-worker and accomplice. If you h reserve and criticise at first, you are preventing yourself from getting the fullest possible value from what you read. But i your mind as widely as possible, then signs and hints of almost imperceptible fineness, from the twist and turn of the firs will bring you into the presence of a human being nulike any other. Steep yourself in this, acquaint yourself with this, an will find that your author is giving you, or attempting to give you, something far more definite. The thirty-two chapters o —— if we consider how to read a novel first —— are an attempt to make something as formed and controlled as a build are more impalpable than bricks; reading is a longer and more complicated process than seeing. Perhaps the quickest wa understand the elements of what a novelist is doing is not to read, but to write; to make your own experiment with the da difficulties of words.

我们必须从理论上搞懂,资本主义与社会主义的区分不在于是计划还是市场这样的问题。社会主义也有市场经济也有计划控制。不要以为搞点市场经济就是资本主义道路,没有那么回事。计划和市场都得要。不搞市场,连世都不知道,是自甘落后。

不要怕冒一点风险。我们已经形成了一种能力,承担风险的能力。为什么这次治理通货膨胀能够见效这么快,而受多大影响,货币也没有受多大影响?原因就是有这十一二年改革开放的基础。改革开放越前进,承担和抵抗风越强。我们处理问题,要完全没有风险不可能,冒点风险不怕。

沿海如何帮助内地,这是一个大问题。可以由沿海一个省包内地一个省或两个省,也不要一下子负担太重,开始些技术转让。共同致富,我们从改革一开始就讲,将来总有一天要成为中心课题。社会主义不是少数人富起来、不是那个样子。社会主义最大的优越性就是共同富裕,这是体现社会主义本质的一个东西。如果搞两极分化,情民族矛盾、区域间矛盾、阶级矛盾都会发展,相应地中央和地方的矛盾也会发展,就可能出乱子。

Journey into old age

On a May morning in 1979, I opened the door of my New York City apartment and stepped nervously into the hall. As a woman, I was apprehensive. I extended my cane, feeling carefully for the first step of

the stairs.

My legs strained awkwardly. One step…two…three…breathe hard against the wall to catch my breath.

So far, so good, I said to myself.

And then I stopped. Was I overdoing it? Would I really ge t away with this act? For I wasn?t really 85. Underneath the tra aged body was the real me, a 26-year-old woman. I was pretending to be so much older because I wanted to find out wha be elderly, and to discover firsthand the problems faced by the elderly.

As a start I learned how to “age” myself—a complicated procedure requiring four hours. With latex foam giving my face wrinkles, a heavy fabric binding my body, and an gray wig on my head, I became 60 years older and ready to set forth on adventure.

My destination that first day was a conference ageing in Columbus, Ohio. Out on the street I tried to signal a cab for the after taxi flashed past, all empty. Did they feel that old ladies don?t ti p well? Finally one stopped.

At the airline ticket counter, I found myself in a line of young business man. “Good morning, sir!” the agent exclaime each one. “Have a pleasant trip.” When old-lady-me peered up at him through thick spectacles, however, all I got was ticker, a mutter of “Columbus” and an abrupt “Next.”

The whole purpose of the conference, attended mostly by young professional, was to study the problems of the elderly. Y incredibly, the participants seemed to ignor e the only “old lady” in their midst. When one of the young males offered cof of women, I found myself thinking, What about me? If I were young, he would offer me coffee too.

By day?s end, I was angry. I had been condescended to, ignored, co unted out in a way I had never known before. People do judge a book by its cover.

The experience was repeated in my neighborhood drugstore when, as a meek and dowdy old woman, I asked for a stoma medicine. The owner

merely jerked a

thumb over his shoulder.

”Back there, bottom shelf.”

Peering around, I quavered, “Can you help me find it?”

He looked u in annoyance, walked to the shelf and pointed down. I stooped to pick up a bottle and tried to decipher the s “Could you please read the directions for me?” I pleaded.

In irritation, he rattled them off, and them dismissed me with,”OK, that it?” I was afraid to ask him anything more.

The next morning, I returned to the store as confident, 26-year-old Pat Moor.

“Good morning,” the owner greeted me cheerfully. “How can we help you today?”

I used exactly the same words in asking for the stomach medicine.

“Oh,” he said, smiling, “it?s right over here.” Escorting me to the shelf, he kneeled down, picked up a bottle and carefu the directions, the sizes in which it came and the priced, Then he rang up the same and wished me a fine day.

As I walked out of the store, my heart cried for the older woman. I could understand how she would become defensive a intimidated.

What?s Your Best Time of Day?

Your short-term memory is best during the morning —— in fact, about 15 percent more efficient than at any other time o students, take heed; when faced with a morning exam, it really does pay to review your notes right before the test is give Long-term memory is different. Afternoon is the best time for learning material that you want to recall days, weeks or m Politicians, business executives or others who must learn speeches would be smart to do their memorizing during that tim you are a student, you would be wise to schedule your more difficult classes in the afternoon, rather than in the morning. also try to do most of your studying in the afternoon, rather than late at night.

Your manual dexterity —— the speed and c with which you perform complicated tasks with your hands —— peaks during the afternoon hours. Such work as carpen sewing will be a little easier at this time of day.

What about sports? During afternoon and early evening, your coordination is at its peak, and you?re able to react the quic outside stimulus —— like a baseball speeding toward you at home plate. Studies have also shown that late in the day, w temperature is peaking, you will perceive a physical workout to be easier and less fatiguing —— whether it actually is o means you are more likely to work harder during a late afternoon or early evening workout, and therefore benefit

more from

it. Studies involving swimmers, runners, short-putters and rowing crews have shown consistently that performance is bet evening

孔子曰:“三人行,则必有我师。”老师和学生并没有什么不可逾越的界限。在这门知识上老师高于学生,在另学生也可能高于老师;今天老师高于学生,明天学生可能高过老师。这也是辩证法,对立面的统一。

礼记的《学记》有一段著名的话,意思也和这相近:“学然后知不足,教然后知困。知不足,然后能自反也。知自强也。故曰:教学相长也。”这就是在今天说来,也还是颠扑不破的。

“教育者必先受教育”,这个道理说来很浅显,但是人们在实际生活中却很不容易承认。特别是当老师当久了的容易接受这个辩证法。老师们不容易接受这个道理,倒也事出有因。“弟子不必不如师,师不必贤于弟子”,虽的代表者韩愈所提出来的一个观点,但是在封建时代却并不通入。正好相反,“天地君亲师”,在封建时代,老地君亲”在一起,居高临下。老师毕竟是老师,师道尊严,神圣不可侵犯。这个观点相沿成习。

The fact is that, as a writer, Faulkner is no more interested in solving problems than he is tempted to indulge in sociologi on the sudden changes in the economic position of the southern states. The defeat and the consequences of defeat are me out of which his epics grow. He is not fascinated by men as a community but by man in the community, the individual as in himself, curiously unmoved by external conditions. The tragedies of these individuals have nothing in common with G they are led to their inexorable end by passions caused by inheritance, traditions, and environment, passions which are ex in a sudden outburst or in a slow liberation from perhaps generations-old restrictions.

The stars here see b those in other places. “The sun during the day shines on the island very brightly and stars during the night light it aw fully magnificent,” often remarked people.

Gradually lights have stopped brightening, some buildings stand sparsely in

the

dark, screened in luxuriant trees. Twined are some of the spiral mountainous roads reaching down curvingly from the top mountains. And below is a lively city. Now most of the shops along the streets are closed. The road leads further outside a harbour. And there are a couple of hotels near it. All of them are three-story buildings. Much light from their windows sea.

对于一位职业批评家来说,(本人就是一位批评家)去剧院看戏成了一场灾难。这如同是在花费自己的血汗钱去此,一场戏结束得越快越好。这种观点似是将批评家同花钱看戏的人置于一种不可调和的对立状态。因为看戏的戏越长,他花钱所得到的乐趣便越多。在有些地方,批评家确乎处于这种状态。在那里,看戏的人常是为着专门才去剧院,他们坚持要求那场戏要持续上几个小时。因此巡回演出的经办人时常深感窘迫,因为他们上演的伦敦单。

在伦敦,如同许多人去教堂一样,也有许多人去剧院。在那里,批评家身后拥有这样一个庞大的观众团体作后盾剧场的目的是去炫耀自己最华丽的服装,以求和他人的服饰比个高下,力争合于时尚,俾便在宴会上也好有些谈可能是去观赏一场宠物表演。总之,无论在什么地方打发掉一个晚上,要比待在家中更舒心。简而言之,除了对身性质素然外,他们有着五花八门的理由去消磨时光。在一些时髦的中心,那些与宗教乏缘的人款款步入教堂,胞的人去听音乐会或去看歌剧,毫无戏剧细胞的人光顾剧院,这类人数量大的惊人,因此布道词要缩短到十分钟

缩到两小时,即便如此,这些人亦是身在教堂,心中却期盼着布道从速结束,观众们则盼着戏剧快快闭幕。这样快去进午餐,这才是他们真正渴望要做的事情。他们有时姗姗来迟,错过了开头,那就再重新为他们补上。

因此,从教堂到新闻界,四处弥漫着虚伪的气氛。戏剧既单调又乏味,要听众去苦熬上两个小时(当中有两次很这简直是强人所难。但对此,谁也不愿去一语道破。

体验年迈

1979年 5 月的一个清晨,我拉开我在纽约市的公寓房门,忐忑不安地走进门厅。作为一个 85 岁的老太婆,我不伸出拐杖小心翼翼地探着楼梯的第一级台阶。我的两腿僵硬,行动不便。一级……二级……三级……大口喘气…完 12 级台阶来到第一个楼梯平台时,我不得不靠着墙歇一口气。

我自言自语道:到现在为止,一切还算不错。

接着我停了下来暗想:我是不是装的过火了?

这样做真的会瞒过别人吗?其实我并不是真的 85 岁。在老态龙钟的外表掩饰之下,我实际才是个 26 岁的女子。我装扮得这么老,为的是体验一下老年人的滋味,并亲自发现老年人面临的问题。

作为第一步,我学会了怎么使自己“变得老态龙钟”——这是一个复杂的过程,花了我四个小时。我在脸上涂使它布满皱纹,身上捆扎着厚实的织物,头上带起灰白的假发,这样一来我就老了 60 岁,可以开始我的伟大冒我第一天的目标是俄亥俄核州的哥伦布城参加一次讨论老年化问题的会议。走到街上我试图以打手势叫一辆出租出租汽车一辆接着一辆飞驰而过,车里全都空空的。他们是否认为老太婆不会多给小费呢?最后总算有一辆停了在航空公司的售票柜台前,我发现自己是跟一些年轻商人排在一起。“早上好,先生!”工作人员满面春风地大打招呼。“祝您旅途愉快!”然而,当我这个老太婆透过厚厚的眼睛盯着他看时,她指对我的机票扫了一眼,嘴“哥伦布”,便突然喊了声“下一个!”

这次会议的唯一目的是研讨老年人问题,但到会的都是些年轻的专业人员。令人难以置信的是,与会者对他们之中太太”根本不理睬。当我看到一个年轻的男人请一群女人喝咖啡时,我不禁想到:我呢?要是我年轻,他也准会的。

我为什么没有呢?要是让他知道我这么年轻,我也会有咖啡喝的。

一天结束时,我感到十分气愤。人们从未以这样高高在上的态度对待过我。从未如此轻视我,不想把我放在眼里们的确是以貌取人的。

我在住处附近的药店里也遭到同样的冷遇。当我这个外表软弱,穿戴邋遢的老太婆向店主询问胃药时,他只是用膀背后一指,说:“在后面,货架的底层。”

我眯着眼睛四周寻找,颤颤抖抖地问道:“您能帮我找一找吗?”

他厌烦的抬头一望,走向货架,往下指了指。我弯下腰拿起一小瓶药,费力地想认清瓶上的小字“能劳驾您为我明吗?”我恳求道。

他焦躁地把用药说明匆匆念完,说了声“好了,行了吧?”就算把我打发了。我什么也不敢再问。

第二天早上,作为充满自信,年仅 26 岁的帕蒂.摩尔,我又来到了药店。

“早上好,”老板兴高采烈的跟我打招呼。“今天您想要点什么?”

我用完全相同的话询问胃药。

“哦”,他笑容可掬地说:“就在这儿。”他陪我走到货架前,跪下去捡起一瓶药,详细地解释用药说明,药瓶格。然后,他把货款卡在现金收入机上,并祝我一天愉快。

走出药店时,我的心灵在为老年妇女而哭泣。我完全懂得她是怎么变得谨小慎微、战战兢兢的了。

From her childhood onward, Ting Ling began with curiosity to observe the ways of the world which was always blowing to eyewitness myriad miseries in the feudal society. When the epoch-making May Fourth Movement was on, it sparked a vision in her mind of what a new society should be. Ting Ling, in her full-blown youth, dared venture into the literary fie hand at writhing, and in not too long a time emerging as a talented and promising oncomer. During the Leftwing Writers Ling like almost all literary leftwingers went through a baptism of fire and blood (imposed on them by the old regime) --out only the stronger and the more dynamic.

The time had come for Ting Ling, the writer, to fly higher in the bright, blue sky.

1957, a political

movement took place invo lving Ting Ling and a generality of progressive writers, caps of “antipartyism” and ”rightism”on her head. She was badly battered and exiled to the Great North Wilderness to do manual labor.

05 汉译英参考译文

Confuciu s says, “Out of three men, there must be one that can teach me.” So pupils are not necessarily inferior to their te teachers better than their pupils. Some learn the truth earlier than others, and some have special skills—that is all.”

A similar idea is expressed by the following well-known passage quoted from Xueji (The Subject of Education), a chapt ancient book Liji (The Book of Rites): “However nice the food may be, if one does not eat it, he does not know its taste; perfect the doctrine may be, if one does not learn it, he does not know its value. Therefore, when he learns, one knows hi deficiencies; when he teaches, one knows where the difficulty lies. After he knows his deficiencies, one is able to examin af ter he knows where the difficulty lies, one is able to improve himself. Hence, …teaching and learning help each other;? a Yue Ming, ‘Teaching is the half of learning.?”

The above

quote from

Liji, which lays emphasis

on self-examination and self-improvement,

is less thoroughgoing than what Han

Yu says about education. Nevertheless, its remarks such as "When he teaches one knows where the difficulty lies,” “Tea teachers as well as pupils” and “Teaching is the half of learning” (a quotation meaning teaching and learning are opposit complementary to each other) all remain irrefutable to this day. The new relationship between teacher and pupil should b the words of Han Yu, “not (being) ashamed to learn from each othe r.” That is to say, teacher and pupil should teach eac learn from each other. They should teach each other as equals regardless of seniority, so that, as Han Yu says, “whoever truth can be a teacher.”

在我的窗外,夜正在挣扎着醒过来;在月光下黯然无色的花园如此生动地梦见它那失去的色彩。用石灰水刷白的的天空的衬托下显得明亮。房屋的粉墙凛冽地使明月的光辉回荡。那是一轮满月。

月来是块石头;但它是块极为神圣的石头。或者说得更确切些,月亮是块能使男人和女人对它产生神圣感情,或具有神圣感情的石头。这样,有柔和的月光,它能给我们以超越理解能力的安宁。有寒冷而严峻的月光,它向灵寂寞和绝对的孤独,它的微不足道和肮脏不洁。有多情的月光,它使人去爱,——不但爱个人,而且有时甚至爱但月亮出了通过眼睛和窗户照进心灵外,还照在身体上。月亮直接影响灵魂;但它还能够通过难以理解而迂回曲折通过血液——影响灵魂。人类中半数的人明显地服从于月亮的节奏而生活着;还有证据表明,不仅女人的生理生活,而且男人的生理生活和精神生活,都是神秘地随着月亮的盈缺而消长。因此会出现没有理由的喜悦,莫名其毫无原因的欢笑和悔恨。这些突然而荒诞的交替变化构成我们通常的情绪变化。这些情绪是血液和体液的产物,液听从许多主人的指挥,主人中也包括不断盈缺的月亮。月亮通过眼睛直接和灵魂接触,沿着血液的神秘渠道间触,因此月亮是双重的神。

我们即使把月亮想象为仅仅是一块石头,也会发现它的石头性质是个潜在的神。一块变冷了的石头。一块没有空含水分的石头。它预示我们的地球在未来的形象,那时距离现在有几百万年,那时衰老的太阳已经丧失它养育万如此等等。这段文章能够很容易地拉长——成为一篇华而不实的作品。但我要克制。让每一位读者按照他自己的填加修辞的色彩吧。无论如何,华丽也罢,不华丽也罢,那块石头仍然是——石头性质。你无法长时间地想这块现自己受到这种或那种本质上是神圣的情思的干扰。这些情思属于彼此不同而又互为补充的两大类之一:人类渺人类伟大的情思。

Hong Kong At Night

We boarded a steam launch to Guangzhou and left Hongkong at ten o’clock.

As the boat started to move, my friend Hong called me outside the cabin. The moment I stepped out I heard him yel Hongkong’s night view is marvelous, you can’t miss it".

Outside on the deck I leaned against the railing, watching Hongkong receding from us.
