汉译英 恋爱不是游戏

没有在浮沉的人海中，翻过斤斗的和尚，不能算善知识；

没有受过恋爱洗礼的人生，不能算真人生。

A Buddhist monk who havn't experiences a lot can't be supposed as a wise one.

→ A Buddhist monk without having experi have no claim to true wisdom.

Likewise, one who has never gone through the

baptism of romantic love will have little

genuine knowledge of life.

血统的 和尚最大的努力是否认现世而求未来的涅磐，但他若不曾了解现世，它又怎能勘破现世，而跳出三界外呢?

The great effort of buddhist monk is for the coming life, but how could he jump out the

mortal world without deeply knowing this life?

→Buddhist monks exert every effort to renounce nirvana . But,

without a full knowledge of this life, how could they see through the vanity of human society

”所谓恋爱正是天赋之本能；如一生不

了解恋爱的人，他又如何了解整个的人生？

While, love is the center of human life, as Meng said:"It is the basic of man that food and

sex." It is to say love is man's born ability; how could a man without experiencing it

→Romantic love is the core of human life. Mencius says,"The desire for food ang sex is

nature." In other words, love is innate. If one remains a lifelong strenger to love, how can he throughly understand life?

所以凡事都从学习而知而能，只有恋爱用不着学习，只要到了相当的年龄，碰到合式（适）的机会，他和她便会莫名其妙地恋爱起来。

So everything comes to know from learning except love. When a person grown up to a certain age and meet a certain chance, he and she may fall in love mysteriously.

→Man becomes capable through learning. But love is an exception. Boy and girl, when they are of age and meet at an opportune moment, will become mysteriously attached to each other.

恋爱人人都会，可是不见得人人都懂，世俗大半以性欲伪充恋爱，以游戏的态度处臵恋爱，于是我们时刻可看到因恋爱而不幸的记载。

Everyone knows love but not everyone understand it. Mortal always take the desire of sex as love and trate it with an attitude of playing. That's why we always hear about tragic stories led by love.

→Though people love by instinct, yet all cannot understand it correctly. More often than not, love is but carnal desire in disguise and is treated as a mere game. That is why we so often hear tragic stories of love.

实在的恋爱绝不是游戏，也绝不是堕落的人生所能体验出其价值的，它具有引人向上的鞭策力，它也具有伟大无私的至上情操，它更是美丽的象征。

True love is nor a game, neither a falling life can taste its value. It has power that lead us to promote ourself as well as great unselfish virtue .It is the symbol of beauty in true.

→True love is not a game. Nor can its true value be appreciated by the morally degenerate. True love spurs one on to higher attainment. It embodies the supreme quality of selflessness, and is, above all, symbolic of beauty.

在一双男女正纯洁热爱着的时候，他和她内心充实着惊人的力量；他们的灵魂是从万有的束缚中，得到了自由，不怕威胁，不为利诱，他们是超越了现实，而创造他们理想的乐园。When a couple were attached to each other deeply, their inner heart have astornished power. Their souls were free from the bondage of meterial world. They don't afraid of threats,

cann't moving by interests. They are above the reality and build their ideal garden of love.

→When a man and woman are deeply immersed in true love,they are full of amazing inner strength. Their souls are freed from all bondage. They are unyielding before threats and incorruptible before any promise of material gain. They transcend the reality to creat an ideal paradise of their own.

不幸物欲充塞的现世界，这种恋爱的光辉，有如萤火之微弱，而且“恋爱”有时适成为无知男女堕落之阶，使维纳斯不禁深深的叹息：“自从世界人群趋向灭亡之途，恋爱变成了游戏，哀哉!" ——庐隐（1898-1934）《恋爱不是游戏》杂文Unfortunately, in the real world now which is filled with desires of material, love has fades its light slighty like light of firefies, and sometimes it just become a step to devil for the youth. This makes Venus couldn't help to the sigh," Since mortal mans went their ways to extinction, love truns into a mere game , alas!"

→Unfortunately, in this present world overflowing with material desires, this kind of true love is as rare as the feeble light of firefies. What is more, "love" Sometimes even leads to moral degeneration on the part of ignorant men and women. Over this, Venus cannot help lamenting with a deep sigh," Love has become a mere game even since humanity set out on its way to extinction. What a sad story!" 张培基译著Lu Yin"love is not a game"

1.In the dining-saloon I sit at a table with three other men; Laura sits some way off with a married couple and their daughter. I can observe her without her knowing, and this gives me pleasure, for it is as in a moving picture that I can note the grace of her gestures, whether she raises a glass of wine to her lips or turns with a remark to one of her neighbours or takes a cigarette from he case with those slende fingers. I have never had much of an eye for noticing the clothes of women, but I get the impression that Laura is always in grey and white by day, looking cool when other people are flushed and shiny in the tropical heat; in the evening she wears soft rich colours,dark red,olive green, midnight blue, always of the most supple flowing texture. I ventured to say something of the kind to her, when she laughed at my clumsy compliment and said I had better take to writing fashion articles instead of political leaders.

在餐厅里，我同另外三个男人围坐在一张桌子旁，而劳拉同一对夫妇及他们的女儿...... 8....So do I let my imagination play over the recesses of Laura's character, so austere in the fore-ground but nurturing what treasures of tenderness, like delicate flowers, for the discover of the venturesome.

同样，我让自己的想象力翱翔在劳拉性格的深处。她表面上严峻凛然，而内心里却孕育着种种珍宝般的柔情蜜意，宛如娇嫩的花朵，等待着有识之士去寻觅。（品质抽象名词）
