马克?吐温——美国的一面镜子(诺埃尔?格罗夫)

在大多数美国人的心目中,马克?吐温是位伟大作家,他描写了哈克?费恩永恒的童年时代中充满诗情画意的旅程和汤姆?索亚在漫长的夏日里自由自在历险探奇的故事。的确,这位美国最受人喜爱的作家的探索精神、爱国热情、浪漫气质及幽默笔调都达到了登峰造极的程度。但我发现还有另一个不同的马克?吐温——一个由于深受人生悲剧的打击而变得愤世嫉俗、尖酸刻薄的马克?吐温,一个为人类品质上的弱点而忧心忡忡、明显地看到前途是一片黑暗的人。

印刷工、领航员、邦联游击队员、淘金者、耽于幻想的乐天派、语言尖刻的讽刺家:马克?吐温原名塞缪尔?朗赫恩?克莱门斯,他一生之中有超过三分之一的时间浪迹美国各地,体验着美国的新生活,尔后便以作家和演说家的身分将他所感受到的这一切介绍给全世界。他的笔名取自他在蒸汽船上做工时听到的报告水深为两口寻(12英尺)——意即可以通航的信号语。他的作品中有二十几部至今仍在印行,其外文译本仍在世界各地拥有读者,由此可见他的享誉程度。

在马克?吐温青年时代,美国的地理中心是密西西比河流域,而密西西比河是这个年轻国家中部的交通大动脉。龙骨船、平底船和大木筏载运着最重要的商品。木材、玉米、烟草、小麦和皮货通过这些运载工具顺流而下,运送到河口三角洲地区,而砂糖、糖浆、棉花和威士忌酒等货物则被运送到北方。在19世纪50年代,西部领土开发高潮到来之前,辽阔的密西西比河流域占美国已开发领土的四分之三。

1857年,少年马克?吐温作为蒸汽船上的一名小领航员踏人了这片天地。在这个新的工作岗位上,他接触到的是各式各样的人物,看到的是一个多姿多彩的大干世界。他完全地投身到这种生活之中,经常在操舵室里听着人们谈论民间争斗、海盗抢劫、私刑案件、游医卖药以及河边的一些化外民居的故事。所有这一切,连同他那像留声机般准确可靠的记忆所吸收的丰富多彩的语言,后来都有机会在他的作品中得以再现。

蒸汽船的甲板上不仅挤满了富有开拓精神的人们,而且也载着一些娼妓、赌棍和歹徒等社会渣滓。从所有这些形形色色的人身上,马克?吐温敏锐地认识了人类,认识了人们的言与行之间的差距。他在蒸汽船上工作的四年半时间是他真正接受教育的开端,而且也是最具有深远意义的教育。到了晚年,马克?吐温还声言是密西西比河使他了解了各种各样的人的本性。这种生活体验对他的全部创作都起了促进作用,然而他描写得最为成功的还是那些密西西比河上的人物。

随着铁路运输的发展,社会上对汽船领航员的需求日渐减少,而内战的爆发又阻碍了商业贸易的发展。这时,马克?吐温便离开了密西西比河流域。他在南方邦联游击队的一支杂牌队伍里当了两个星期的兵。那支队伍想方设法避免与敌军交战。在确信“我比发明撤退的人更精通撤退”之后,马克?吐温离开了那支队伍。他乘驿站马车来到西部,在内华达州的华苏地区受到当时正流行的淘金热的诱惑。同那只有既幸运而又锲

而不舍的追求者才能取得的巨大财富三心二意地打了八个月交道之后,他遭到了失败。在破产和灰心之余,他接受了为弗吉尼亚市《领土开发报》当记者的工作,这一行动将获得文学界永久的感激。

自从他因淘金失败而感到心灰意冷之后,马克?吐温便开始努力博取作为一名报社记者和幽默作家的地区性声望。从事新闻报道工作当然不能使他像淘金成功者一样立成巨富,但在挣钱方面他的笔杆却比他的锄镐要有效得多。1864年春季,在他加盟《领土开发报》还不足两年之时,他又乘驿站马车前往旧金山,那儿在当时和现在都是有前途的年轻作家成长的摇篮。

马克?吐温磨炼并试验了他的新笔力,但他却因写了一些尖锐的评论文章而被迫暂时离开这座城市。他围绕着虐待华人等一类问题对市政府提出的尖锐批评惹得一些官员大为恼火,因之他只好逃到萨克拉门托山谷的金矿区暂避风头。他对那儿的拓荒者们的描写使西海岸地区富有创新精神的现代人倍感亲切。“这儿的人们真是了不起——因为那些笨手笨脚、无精打彩、呆头呆脑的懒汉都呆在家里……正是那些人们为加利福尼亚赢得了这样的声誉:当他们着手进行一项宏伟的事业时,他们会不计代价或风险而以一种豪迈的气概和闯劲勇往直前,一千到底。加利福尼亚人至今仍保持着这样的声誉,因而,每当他们发起一项新的惊天动地的壮举时,那些素来稳重的人便会像往常一样微笑着说:…看吧,这完全是加利福尼亚的风格?。”

1864年与1865年之交的那个冬天,马克?吐温是在安吉尔斯矿区度过的。在这段沉闷的日子里,他记了一本笔记。在杂乱无章的有关天气情况和乏味无趣的有关矿区饭食情况的记录条目中夹着一条叙述当天听到的一则故事的记录——这条记录决定了他一生事业的发展方向:“科尔曼用他的跳蛙——与陌生人赌50美元——陌生人没有跳蛙,科尔曼去给他弄来一只——陌生人利用这段时间将科的跳蛙肚子塞满铅弹,这样,科的跳蛙跳不起来,陌生人的跳蛙便得以获胜。”

经过马克?吐温的生花妙笔改写之后,这个故事登在美国各地的报纸上,成了家喻户晓的“卡拉韦拉斯县有名的跳蛙”。至此,马克?吐温作为“太平洋海岸狂放的幽默大师”的声望已在全国范围内牢固地确立起来了。

两年之后,他得到了一个以美国人特有的眼光去观察欧洲旧大陆的机会。在纽约市,“费城号”蒸汽船准备进行一次到欧洲和圣地的观光航行。这是美国人第一次组织较大规模的团体观光旅行——也可以看作是一个国家发展史上的某种里程碑。马克?吐温作为加利福尼亚一家报纸的记者被委派随同观光团采访。如果读者们期望能读到有关这次旅行见闻的神采飞扬的描写的话,那他们是要倍感意外的。

举例来说,他对于那没有给他留下什么好印象的土耳其君主苏丹是这样报道的,“人们可以任意选择一个地方设一个陷阱,一夜之间准可捕捉到十几个更有能耐的人。”他信口开河地对一些受人景仰的艺术家和艺术珍品加以鄙薄,甚至对宗教圣地也敢于以亵渎性的言辞加以侮蔑。回国以后,越来越多的报纸开始刊登他的文章,整个美国都同他一齐欢笑。他一回到美国,他的旅行杂记《傻子出国旅行记》立即成为畅销书。

三十六岁时,马克?吐温开始定居于康涅狄格州哈特福德镇,他的最优秀的作品全是在那段时间里问世的。

早在1870年,马克?吐温就试着写了一篇关于一个他名之为比利?罗杰斯的男孩子的童年历险故事。两年后,他又将主人公的名字改为汤姆,并着手将故事改编成剧本。直到1874年他才开始认真地扩展故事情节。《汤姆?索亚》于1876年出版后,很快成为美国儿童故事的经典之作。这部描写汤姆的顽皮、勇敢、

机智以及他对贝琪?莎切尔的天真纯洁的感情的故事几乎像《独立宣言》一样成了今天美国学校里的必读书本。

马克?吐温本人的独立宣言却是由另一个人物表达出来的。在《汤姆?索亚》第六章里,他引出了“村里的流浪少年,镇上酒鬼的儿子哈克贝利?费恩”。哈克不愿在清教徒道格拉斯寡妇家过上等人的体面生活,从那里逃出来后对他的朋友汤姆?索亚发牢骚说:“我试过了,还是不行;不行啊,汤姆。那不是我过的日子……那寡妇家吃饭要听钟声,睡觉要听钟声,起床也要听钟声,什么事情都得规规矩矩,简直叫人受不了。”

《汤姆?索亚》风靡美国九年之后,哈克被赋予独立的生命,成为一本被许多人认为是最成功的描写美国人的作品的书中的主人公。他同一个逃跑出来的奴隶一起乘坐木筏沿着密西西比河顺流而下的漂流航程展现了一幅幅揭示美国社会生活全貌的生动画面。通过对密西西比河,尤其是对哈克?费恩这一人物的描写,马克?吐温将自己想从那束缚着自己并常常令自己苦恼的生活步调中摆脱出来,从生活中的各种清规戒律以及为了事业成功而进行的艰苦挣扎中解放出来的愿望表达得淋漓尽致。

马克?吐温认为,美国人的理想中缺少了一种成分。他说:“我们只消偶尔地躺下来好好放松休息一下,保持锋棱利角,我们将有可能成为一个多么朝气蓬勃的民族,一个多么富有思想的民族啊!”

马克?吐温的一生都笼罩在悲剧的阴影之中,自己的亲人一个接一个地去世:他的父亲在他十二岁那年死于肺炎,他的兄弟亨利在一次汽船爆炸事故中遇难;他的儿子朗顿才满十九个月即离开人世。他的大女儿苏茜死于脊膜炎;克莱门斯夫人在佛罗伦萨死于心脏病;而他的小女儿也因癫痫病的发作淹死在楼上的浴盆里。

这位曾令全世界欢笑的人自己却饱尝了人世的辛酸。他早期作品中的道德说教厚厚地包着一层幽默的外衣,现在幽默换成了辛辣的讽刺。对于美国军队在一个火山口上屠杀六百名菲律宾摩洛人的行为,他没有直接进行抨击,而是假装为之高唱赞歌。在《神秘的陌生人》中,他指出人类应该抛弃宗教幻想,依靠自己而不是上帝的力量去创造一个更加美好的世界。

他自己的最后一个幻想到后来似乎也破灭了。在晚年口述自传的时候,他以极端绝望的心情谈到人从尘世的苦难中的最终解脱:“……他们从世界上消失了,在这个世界上他们无足轻重,无所成就;甚至他们的存在本身就是个错误,是个失败,是种愚蠢。这个世界上也没有留下丝毫能表明他们存在过的痕迹。这个世界赠给他们的只是一日的哀伤和永久的遗忘。”

XVI.Mark Twain Mark Twain was the pen name of Samuel Langhorne Clemens. He was born in the small village of Florida, Missourion November 30, 1835. His family moved to Hannibal when Samuel was 4, where he spent his boyhood, fascinated by the romance and impressed by the violence of river life. Sam had relatively little schooling. He left school at 13, and became a full-time apprentice to a printer. At 18, he became a tramp printer and went to New York, then to Philadelphia and Washington, and finally to Iowa to set type for his brother's local paper. At22, he became a steamboat pilot's apprentice. About two years later, he became a pilot himself. He worked on the Mississippi River till 1861, learning a lot about human nature. In 1861,when the Civil War broke out, he became a Confederate guerrilla but retired after two weeks. Then he went to the West, and worked as a prospector, miner, and speculator, but failed. And then he did reporting for local papers. In February, 1863, he began to use the pen name Mark Twain, a river man's term for water that was just barely safe for navigation. In 1865, The Celebrated Jumping Frog of Calaveras County was published and he became famous. He married in 1870, and moved to Hartford, Conn. ,where he lived his most productive years (till 1891), during which he wrote Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn. Besides these two

children's classics, he wrote many other important works in his life, among which were Roughing It, The Gilded Age, The Prince and Pauper, The One Million, Bank-Note and Other Stories, The Man that Corrupted Hadleybury and Other Stories and Sketches. He died in 1910.

高级英语上册第五课翻译范文

关于希特勒入侵苏联的讲话 二十二日星期天早晨,我一醒来便接到了希特勒入侵苏联的消息。这就使原先意料中的事变成了无可怀疑的事实。我完全清楚我们对此应该承担何种义务,采取何种政策。我也完全清楚该如何就此事发表声明。尚待完成的只不过是将这一切形成文字而已。于是,我吩咐有关部门立即发表通告,我将于当晚九点钟发表广播讲话。不一会儿,匆匆从伦敦赶到的迪尔将军走进我的卧室,为我带来了详细情报。德国人已大规模入侵苏联,苏联空军部队有很大一部分飞机都没来得及起飞便遭到德军的突袭。德军目前似乎正以凌厉的攻势极为迅猛地向前推进。这位皇家军队总参谋长报告完毕后又补了一句,“我估计他们将会大批地被包围。” 一整天我都在写讲稿,根本没有时间去找战时内阁进行磋商,也没有必要这样做。我知道我们大家在这个问题上的立场是完全一致的。艾登先生、比弗布鲁克勋爵,还有斯塔福德?克里普斯爵士——他是十号离开莫斯科回国的——那天也同我在一 起。 那个周末值班的是我的私人秘书科维尔先生。由他执笔记述的下面这段关于那个星期天里切克 尔斯首相官邸发生的情况的文字,也许值得一提: “六月二十一日,星期六。晚饭前我来到切克尔斯首相官邸。怀南特夫妇、艾登夫妇和爱德华?布里奇斯等几位均在那儿。晚饭席上,邱吉尔先生说,德国人人侵苏联已是必然无疑的了。他认为希特勒是想指望博取英美两国的资本家和右冀势力的同情和支持。不过,希特勒的如意算盘打错了。 我们英国将会全力以赴援助苏联。维南特表示美国也会采取同样的态度。 晚饭后,当我同邱吉尔先生在槌球场上散步时,他又一次谈到了这一话题。我当时问他,对于他这个头号反共大将来说,这种态度是否意味着改变自己的政治立场。‘绝非如此。我现在的目标只有一个,即消灭希特勒。这使我的生活单纯多了。假使希特勒入侵地狱,我至少会在下议院替魔 鬼说几句好话的。’ 次日清晨四点钟,我被电话铃惊醒,原来是外交部来的电话,内容是报告德国已开始进攻俄国的消息。首相一向吩咐,只有当英国遭到入侵时才可以叫醒他。因此,我等到八点钟才向他报告这一消息。他听完消息后只说了一句话:‘通知英国广播电台,我今晚九点要发表广播讲话。’他从上午十一点开始撰写讲稿,中间除与斯塔福德.克里普斯爵士、克兰伯恩勋爵和比弗布鲁克勋爵共进午餐外,这一天的全部时间都花在写讲稿上了……讲稿直到九点差二十分才写好。” 在这次广播讲话中,我说道: “纳粹政体与共产主义的最糟糕之处毫无两样。除了贪欲和种族统治外,它没有任何指导思想和行动准则。它在残酷压迫和疯狂侵略过程中所犯下的滔天罪行在人类历史上可谓空前绝后。在过去的二十五年中,我比任何人都更坚定而始终如一地反对共产主义。过去对共产主义所作的批评我仍然一句也不想收回。但现在展现在我们面前的景象已经将那一切冲得烟消云散了。过去的一切,连同它的种种罪恶、蠢行和悲剧全都从眼前乍然消失。此刻我眼前看到的是俄国的士兵昂然挺立于自己的国土,英勇地捍卫着他们祖祖辈辈自古以来一直辛勤耕耘着的土地。我看到他们正在守卫着自己的家园,在那里母亲和妻子正在向上帝祈祷——是啊,任何人都总有祈祷的时候——祈求上帝保佑她们的亲人的平安,并保佑她们的壮劳力、她们的勇士和保护者凯旋归来。我看见成千上万的俄国村庄,那儿的人们虽然要靠在土地上辛勤耕作才能勉强维持生计,却依然能够享受到天伦之乐,那儿的姑娘在欢笑,儿童在嬉戏。我看到这一切正面临着凶暴的袭击,正杀气腾腾地扑向他们的是纳粹的战争机器同它的那些全副武装、刀剑当当有声、皮靴咚咚作响的普鲁士军官以及它的那些奸诈无比、刚刚帮它征服并奴役了十多个国家的帮凶爪牙。我还看到那些呆头呆脑、训练有素、既驯服听话又凶残野蛮的德国士兵像一群蝗虫般地向前蠕动着。我看见天空中那些屡遭英军痛击、余悸未消的德国轰炸机和战斗机此时正庆幸终于找到他们以为是无力反抗、可手到即擒的猎物。“在

复旦高级英语第一课课文翻译

坤塔娜 坤塔娜这一周要满11岁了。她迈入青少年期的过程我只能用神气自信来形容,看着她从襁褓里一路成长,就像看棒球手桑迪·考法克斯投球或是比尔·拉赛尔打篮球那样精彩。他们身上都有着一股不经意的傲气,觉得没有人能够做的比他们更好。然而,对于一个父亲来说,看着女儿一天天成长却不是件容易的事。每一次生日她都变得越来越像我们,一个大人,而我们却还沉浸于她孩提时的记忆。我记得第一次看见她是在圣约翰医院的育儿室。探望时间已经过了,我和妻子站在玻璃隔音墙外张望着,猜想摇篮里的孩子们哪一个是我们的。随后,一个带着口罩的护士从后面的房间出来,手里抱着一个正在张牙舞爪的头上绑着蝴蝶结的黑发婴儿。她才刚出生不到十七个小时,脸上的褶子还没打开、红扑扑的,手腕上的身份证明印的不是我们的名字,而是两个字母“NI”。“NI”代表着“信息不详”,是医院给准备被领养的婴儿的代码。昆塔娜是领养的。 对于我们来说,说出这几个字/公开这一点并不困难,尽管会引来尽管用意善良却让人不爽的赞美之辞。“就算她是你们亲生的,你们也不可能更爱她了。”每当这种时候,我和妻子都沉默不语,勉强从齿缝里挤出一点微笑。然而,我们并不是没有意识到,在不远的将来,我们将会面临只有我们这些养父母才会面临的时刻——我们的女儿要决定是否去寻找她的亲生父母。 我记得在我成长的那个年代,不少广播剧是围绕领养展开的。通常剧情都起因于一个孩子意外得知了自己是被领养的。这些消息只能是意外得知,因为在那些日子里,父母告诉子女他们不是自己的亲生骨肉都被认为是有悖伦常的。

如果这个秘密不得不被泄露,通常都会加上一些似是而非的附加情节,如当孩子还在襁褓时,他的亲生父母就已双亡。一场车祸也被认为是送走双亲最迅速有效的方式。我的一个同龄人,当时是一名年轻的女演员,直到二十二岁成为她生父小笔遗产继承人时才得知自己是被收养的。她的养母无法亲口告诉她遗产的来历,便把这个任务托付给了威廉姆·毛利事务所来完成。 如今,我们对此比以前开明了,心理学也证明了这样一味地隐瞒真相只会带来伤害。当坤塔娜出生时,她是被接生她的妇产科医生私下交给我们的。在加州,这样的私下收养不仅合法,在六十年代中期甚至非常普遍。因为当时堕胎尚未合法化,性解放也未开始,人们还无法接受一个未婚母亲抚养自己的孩子。那天晚上,我们第一次去圣约翰医院看坤塔娜时,我们之间有一个默契:“信息不详”只是一个手链。对于同意如此开诚布公地对待坤塔娜的身世我们感到很自豪,但那纯粹是因为当时我们得知的唯一信息只是她妈妈的年龄,籍贯和健康证明。我们没有想到的是,办事过程中的一个疏忽我们会知道她妈妈的名字,因为同样的疏忽,她也会知道我们的和坤塔娜的。 从我们把坤塔娜从医院抱回家的那天起,我们就努力不对她含糊其辞。她还很小的时候,我们经常雇讲西班牙语的保姆。她最初学的一些词中,有一个就是“领养”,尽管她还不懂这个词的意思。随着她慢慢长大,她开始不知疲惫地问我们为什么我们收养的是她。我们告诉她我们去医院时,医院允许我们选育儿室里的任何一个小孩。“不,不是这个,”我们说:“不是这个,也不是这个。”这些话都伴随着手势,直到:“就是这个!”她脸上会突然一亮,说:“坤塔娜。”每当她问一个关于领养她的问题,我们就回答一个,除非她问起,我们不会主动提起。我们明白随着她长大,她的问题会变得越来越尖锐,越来越复杂。我
