就职演说(1961年1月20日)

约翰.肯尼迪

我们今天举行的不是一个政党的祝捷大会,而是一次自由的庆典。这是一个承先启后、继往开来的大事件。因为刚才我已依照我们的先辈在将近一又四分之三个世纪以前拟好的誓言在诸位和全能的上帝面前庄严宣誓。

当今的世界已与往昔大不相同了。人类手中已掌握的力量,既足以消除一切形式的人类贫困,也足以结束一切形式的人类生活。然而,我们的先辈曾为之奋斗的革命信念至今仍未能为举世所公认。这信念就是认定人权出自上帝所赐而非得自政府的恩典。

我们今天仍未敢忘记我们是第一次革命战争的接班人。此时此地我谨向我们的朋友,同时也向我们的敌人宣告:火炬已传到我们新一代美国人手中。这一代人在本世纪成长起来,经受过战火的锻炼,经历过冷峻的和平的考验,以珍视古老的传统而自豪,又决不愿坐视或容许人权逐渐遭到践踏。美国对这些人权一向负有责任,今天我们也正在本国及全世界范围内为之奋斗。

必须让每一个友邦和敌国都知道:为维护自由,使其长存不灭,我们将会不惜付出任何代价,肩负任何重担,迎战一切困难,援助一切朋友,反击一切敌人。

以上这些是我们保证要做到的——但我们保证要做到的还不止这些。

对于那些与我们有着共同的文化和精神渊源的传统盟邦,我们保证将报之以真诚不渝的友谊。只要我们团结起来,我们在许多合作性事业中就会无往而不胜;而一旦彼此分裂,我们就会无所作为。因为我们之间若起争端,彼此离异,便难以与我们面临的强大对手抗衡。

对于那些我们欢迎其加入自由国家行列的各新兴国家,浅们发誓,一种形式的殖民统治的结束绝不应仅是为了被另一种远为残酷的暴政所取代。我们并不期望这些国家总是支持我们的观点,但我们希望他们始终能够坚决地卫护自己的自由,并时刻牢记,过去那些企图骑上虎背为自己壮声势的愚人结果都没能逃脱葬身虎腹的命运。

对于那些居住在遍布半个地球的茅舍荒村中,正奋力冲破集体贫困的桎梏的各民族,我们保证将尽最大努力帮助他们脱贫自救,不管这样做需要多长时间。这样做并不是因为怕共产党会抢先这样做,也不是因为我们想获得那些国家的赞成票,而是因为这样做是正确的。一个自由社会如若不能帮助众多的穷人,也就无法保全少数的富人。

对于我国边界以南的各姊妹国家,我们要作一项特别的保证:把我们美妙的言辞付诸行动,为谋求进步而进行新的合作。帮助自由的人民和自由的国家政府挣脱贫困的锁链。但我们绝不能让这个充满希望的和平革命成为敌对国家的牺牲品。要让所有的邻邦都知道,我们将和他们一起反对外国在美洲任何地区进行的侵略或颠覆。也要让所有别的国家知道,我们这个半球仍得由自己当家做主。

在一个战争因素远远超过和平因素的时代,对于我们唯一的最好的希望赖以寄托的世界主权国家的联盟组织一一联合国,我们重申对它给予支持的保证:阻止其成为一个仅供谩骂的讲坛,加强其对新兴国家及弱小国家的保护作用,并扩大其职能范围。

最后,对于那些不惜与我们为敌的国家,我们要提出的不是保证而是呼吁:希望双方重新开始努力寻求和平,不要等到科学所释放出来的可怕的破坏力将整个人类推向有计划的或偶然发生的自我毁灭之时。

我们不敢以示弱去诱惑他们。因为只有当我们有了无可置疑的足够的武力时,我们才能有无可置疑的把握避免使用武力。

然而,目前的局势使两大国家集团都感到不安——双方都因现代军备的庞大开支而感到不堪重负,双方都为极端危险的原子武器的不断扩散而理所当然地感到惊慌不安,但双方又都在竞相谋求改变那种使双方都不敢轻易发动导致全人类毁灭的最后决战的小稳定的恐怖均势。

因此,让我们重新开始,双方都记住:礼让并不表示软弱,而诚意则永远需要验证。我们决不能因为惧怕而谈判,但我们也决不要惧怕谈判。

让双方寻求彼此的共同利益所在,而不要在引起分歧的问题上徒费精力。

让双方进行首次谈判,对监督和控制军备制订出严格可行的计划?并且把足以毁灭其他国家的绝对力量置于世界各国的绝对管制之下。

让双方致力于揭开科学的奥秘,而不是科学的恐怖。让我们共同努力去探测星空,征服沙漠,消除疾病,开发洋底,并促进艺术和贸易的发展。

让双方一起在世界各个角落听取以赛亚的指示,去“卸下沉重的负担……(并)让被压迫者获得自由”。

如果初次的合作能够减少彼此之间的疑虑的话,那就让我们双方进而开始新的合作吧,不是寻求新的力量均衡,而是建立一个有法制的新世界,使强者公正,弱者安全,和平得以维持。

所有这一切不会在第一个一百天内完成,也不会在第一个一千天内完成,不会在本届政府任期内完成,甚至也许不会在我们这一辈子完成。但我们要让它从我们手上开始。

同胞们,我们事业的成败关键不仅仅是握在我的手中,更大一部分是握在你们手中。自从我国建立以来,每一代美国人都曾应召验证自己对祖国的忠诚。应召服役的美国青年的坟墓已遍布全球。

如今那号角又在召唤我们了。它不是在号召我们扛起武器一一尽管我们也需要武器,不是在号召我们去参战——尽管我们也准备应战,而是在号召我们肩负起一场长期的艰苦斗争的重任,年复一年,“忍受困苦,向往未来”,为反对人类共同的敌人——暴政、贫困、疾病以及战争本身——而斗争。

我们能否建立一个把东西南北联在一起的伟大的全球联盟来对付这些敌人,以确保人类享有更为富有成效的生活呢?你是否愿意参加这一具有历史意义的行动呢?

在世界漫长的历史上,只有少数几代人能在自由面临极大危险的时刻被赋予保卫自由的任务。在这一重任面前,我不退缩,我欢迎这一重任。我认为我们中间不会有人愿意与别人或另一代人调换位置。我们从事这一事业的那种精力、信念和献身精神将照耀我们的国家和一切为此出力的人们。这一火焰所发出的光芒将真正照亮这个世界。

因此,美国同胞们,你们应该问的不是你们的国家能为你们做些什么,而是你们自己能为你们的国家做些什么。

和我处在同样地位的世界各国的公民们,你们应该问的不是美国会为你们做些什么,而是我们一起能为人类自由做些什么。

最后,无论你们是美国公民还是世界各国的公民,请以我们在此要求于你们的那种力量和牺牲的高标准反过来要求我们。良心是我们唯一可靠的报酬,历史是我们所作所为的最后裁判。让我们迈步向前,去领导我们所热爱的国家吧,我们祈求上帝的保佑和帮助,但我们知道,上帝在人间的工作就是我们自己的工作。

肯尼迪总统就职演说(中英文)

肯尼迪总统就职演说(1961年1月20日) Inaugural Address of John F. Kennedy January 20, 1961 Vice President Johnson, Mr. Speaker, Mr. Chief Justice, President Eisenhower, Vice President Nixon, President Truman, Reverend Clergy, fellow citizens: 约翰逊副总统、议长先生、首席大法官先生、艾森豪威尔总统、尼克松副总统、杜鲁门总统、尊敬的牧师、同胞们: We observe today not a victory of party but a celebration of freedom, symbolizing an end as well as a beginning, signifying renewal as well as change. For I have sworn before you and Almighty God the same solemn oath our forebears prescribed nearly a century and three-quarters ago. 我们今天所看到的,并非是某一党派的胜利,而是自由的庆典。它象征着结束,亦象征着开始;意味着更新,亦意味着变化。因为我已在你们及万能的上帝面前,依着我们先辈175年前写下的誓言宣誓。 The world is very different now. For man holds in his mortal hands the power to abolish all forms of human poverty and all forms of human life. And yet the same revolutionary beliefs for which our forebears fought are still at issue around the globe -- the belief that the rights of man come not from the generosity of the state but from the hand of God. 世界已然今非昔比,因为人类手中已经掌握了巨大的力量,既可以用来消除各种形式的贫困,亦可用以毁灭人类社会。然而,我们先辈曾为之战斗的那些革命性的信念还依然在世界上受人争议——那就是,每个人享有的各项权利决非来自国家政权的慷慨赐予,而是出自上帝之手。 We dare not forget today that we are the heirs of that first revolution. Let the word go forth from this time and place, to friend and foe alike, that the torch has been passed to a new generation of Americans -- born in this century, tempered by war, disciplined by a hard and bitter peace, proud of our ancient heritage -- and unwilling to witness or permit the slow undoing of those human rights to which this nation has always been committed, and to which we are committed today at home and around the world. 今天,我们不敢有忘,我们乃是那第一次革命的后裔。此时,让这个声音从这里同时向我们的朋友和敌人传达:火炬现已传递到新一代美国人手中——他们生于本世纪,既经受过战火的锤炼,又经历过艰难严峻的和平岁月的考验。他们深为我们古老的遗产所自豪——决不愿目睹或听任诸项人权受到无形的侵蚀,这些权利不仅为这个国家始终信守不渝,亦是我们正在国内和世界上誓死捍卫的东西。 Let every nation know, whether it wishes us well or ill, that we shall pay any price, bear any burden, meet any hardship, support any friend, oppose any foe to assure the survival and the success of liberty.

高级英语第二册第八课课文翻译

第八课 工人是创造者还是机器 人只要不剥削他人,就得靠劳动来求生存。不论其劳动方式是多么原始,多么简单,仅凭从事生产性劳动这一事实,就足以使人超出动物界。把人定义为“从事生产的动物”是很有道理的。但对于人来说,劳动不仅是必不可少的生存条件。劳动还使他从自然界中解放出来,成为一个不依附于自然界的社会的人。在劳动过程中,即在模铸和改造其自身以外的自然界的过程中,人也模铸和改造了他自己。人由征服自然、驾驭自然才最终达到超出自然的境界,并进而逐步增强了自己的协作能力、思维能力和审美能力。他将自己从自然界,从自己与自然结成的原始统一体中分离出来,同时又以主人翁和建设者的身分重新与自然相结合。人的劳动方式越进步,其个性特征也就发挥得越充分。在塑造和改造自然的过程中,人逐步学会了如何充分利用自己具有的各种能力,增进自己的技艺和创造性。无论是法国南部洞穴中的美丽绘画,原始人所用武器上的纹饰图案,希腊的雕像和神殿,还是中世纪的教堂建筑,能工巧匠制作的桌椅,乃至农民培育出来的花木五谷等等——这些无一不是人利用自己的思维能力与技艺创造性地改造大自然的具体例证。 在西方历史上,手工技艺,尤其是十三、十四世纪中发展起来的手工技艺构成了人类创造性劳动发展史上的一个顶峰。那时的劳动不仅是一项有现实价值的活动,而且是一项给人以巨大的满足的活动。有关手工技艺的主要特征,美国社会学家米尔斯曾作过清楚的说明。他说,“除了劳动者对于被制造的产品和制造产品的生产过程本身的兴趣之外,劳动并无其他的深层动机。日常工作的细枝末节之所以有意义,是因为在劳动者的心目中,它们与劳动的产品密不可分。劳动者不受任何约束地主宰自己的劳动行为。这样,工匠艺人便能通过劳动过程来学习劳动技艺,并且在劳动过程中应用和提高自己的劳动技艺。工作和娱乐、工作和文化活动融为一体。工匠艺人的谋生手段决定并影响着其生活方式。” 随着中世纪社会结构的瓦解和现代生产方式的出现,劳动的社会意义和作用发生了根本性的变化,这一变化在新教国家尤为显著。人们对于自己新近获得的自由感到害怕,而为了克服自己的疑惧,他就必须进行某种狂热的活动。这种活动的结果,或成或败,就决定着他的命运和灵魂的归宿,标志着他死后是将进天堂还是入地狱。于是,劳动便成了一种义务,一种烦恼,而不再是一种能使人满足和愉快的活动。靠劳动发财致富的可能性越大,劳动就越发变成了一种纯粹的升官发财的手段。用马克斯?韦伯的话说,劳动已成为“内心世界禁欲主义”思想体系中的一个主要因素,解决人们内心的寂寞和孤独感的一种办法。 不过,这种意义的劳动也只是对于那些能够积累一些资本并雇用他人劳动的中、上层阶级而言才存在的,而对于那仅有劳动力可供出卖的绝大多数人来说,劳动只不过是一种强迫劳役。十八、十九世纪的工人,若是不想饿死,便得一天劳动十六个小时。他这样做,并不是要以此侍奉上帝,也不是为以工作上的成功来证明他属于“上帝的选民”之列,而是因为他迫于无奈,不得不向那些拥有剥削手段的人出卖自己的劳动力。现代史开初的几个世纪中,劳动的意义划分为两种:对于中产阶级来说是义务,而对于无产者来说则是强迫劳役。 视劳动为一项义务的宗教观念在十九世纪还十分流行,但最近几十年来,这种宗教观念正经历着重大的演变。现代人不知道自己该做些什么,怎样才能有意义地度过自己的一生,只是为了逃避无所事事所造成的寂寞无聊,才被迫去参加劳动。但劳动已不再被人们以十八、十九世纪的中产阶级的那种态度看作是一种道德和宗教上的义务。新的观念产生了。不断地提高生产,追求更大更、好地东西,这些本身已成了劳动的目的,成了新的理想。劳动与劳动者的关系开始异化了。 产业工人的情况又如何呢?他一天要花七八个小时把自己最旺盛的精力用于生产“某种东西”。他需要劳动以求生计,但他在劳动过程中只扮演一个被动的角色。他只在一个复杂的、组织程度很高的生产过程中起一点很小的、孤立的作用,从来没有机会接触到“他的”

Let every nation know, whether it wishes us well or ill, that we shall pay any price, bear any burden, meet any hardship, support any friend, oppose any foe, to assure the survival and the success of liberty. This much we pledge and more. To those old allies whose cultural and spiritual origins we share, we pledge the loyalty of faithful friends. United there is little we cannot do in a host of cooperative ventures. Divided there is little we can do for we dare not meet a powerful challenge at odds and split asunder. To those new states whom we welcome to the ranks of the free, we pledge our word that one form of colonial control shall not have passed away merely to be replaced by a far more iron tyranny. We shall not always expect to find them supporting our view. But we shall always hope to find them strongly supporting their own freedom and to remember that, in the past, those who foolishly sought power by riding the back of the tiger ended up inside. To those people in the huts and villages of half the globe struggling to break the bonds of mass misery, we pledge our best efforts to help them help themselves, for whatever period is required not because the Communists may be doing it, not because we seek their votes, but because it is right. If a free society cannot help the many who are poor, it cannot save the few who are rich. To our sister republics south of our border, we offer a special pledge: to convert our good words into good deeds, in a new alliance for progress, to assist free men and free governments in

肯尼迪就职演讲修辞分析

[Taking the oath of Office] 1.Vice President Johnson, Mr. Speaker, Mr. Chief Justice, President Eisenhower, Vice President Nixon, President Truman, reverend clergy, fellow citizens: 2.We observe today not a victory of party, but a celebration of freedom-- symbolizing an end, as well as a beginning-- signifying renewal, as well as change. For I have sworn before you and Almighty God the same solemn oath our forebears prescribed nearly a century and three-quarters ago. 修辞分析:运用了Antithesis 的修辞手法,前后结构一致,语义相反,容易吸引观众的注意,达到演讲词开篇引人入胜的目的。这里“a victory of party”和“a celebration of freedom”,“an end”和“a beginning”等等分别构成对照,强调这不是一个政党的胜利,而是自由的胜利,是结束也是开端,是更新也是变革。 3.The world is very different now. For man holds in his mortal hands the power to abolish all forms of human poverty and all forms of human life. And yet the same revolutionary beliefs for which our forebears fought are still at issue around the globe -- the belief that the rights of man come not from the generosity of the state, but from the hand of God. 修辞分析:该段子划线部分都运用了Repetition的修辞手法。这里重复的使用主要是为了分清层次,加强演讲词的节奏感和音律美,使读起来朗朗上口。 4.We dare not forget today that we are the heirs of that first revolution. Let the word go forth from this time and place, to friend and foe alike, -- born in this century, tempered by war, disciplined by a hard and bitter peace, proud of our ancient heritage, and unwilling to witness or permit the slow undoing of those human rights to which this nation has always been committed, and to which we are committed today at home and around the world.

中东的集市 1.中东的集市仿佛把你带回到了几百年、甚至几千年前的时代。此时此刻显现在我脑海中的这个中东集市,入口处是一座哥特式拱门,门上的砖石年代久远。穿过耀眼、灼热的大型露天广场进入集市,仿佛走入了一个凉爽、幽暗的洞穴。集市蜿蜒伸展,一眼望不到尽头,最后消失在远处的阴影里。赶集的人们络绎不绝地进出市场,挂着铃铛的小毛驴穿行于熙熙攘攘的人群中,边走边发出和谐悦耳的叮当声。集市的路面约有十二英尺宽,但每隔几码远就会因为设在路边的小货摊的挤占而变窄;那儿出售的货物各种各样,应有尽有。你一走进市场,就可以听到摊贩们的叫卖声,赶毛驴的小伙计和脚夫们大着嗓门叫人让道的吆喝声,还有那些想买东西的人们与摊主讨价还价的争吵声。各种各样的噪声此伏彼起,不绝于耳,简直叫人头晕。 2.随后,当你走人集市的深处,人口处的喧闹声渐渐消失,眼前便是清静的布市了。这里的泥土地面,被无数双脚板踩踏得硬邦邦的,人走在上面几乎听不到脚步声了,而拱形的泥砖屋顶和墙壁也难得产生什么回音效果。布店的店主们一个个都是轻声细语、慢条斯理的样子;买布的顾客们在这种沉闷压抑的气氛感染下,自然而然地也学着店主们的样子,低声细语地说话。 3.中东集市的特点之一是经销同类商品的店家,不是分散在集市各处以避免相互间的竞争,而是都集中在一块儿,这样既便于让买主知道上哪儿找他们,同时他们自己也可以紧密地联合起来,结成同盟,以便共同反对迫害和不公正待遇。例如,在布市上,所有卖衣料、窗帘布、椅套布等的商贩都把货摊一个接一个地排设在马路两边,每一个店铺门面前都摆有一张陈列商品的搁板桌和一些存放货物的货架。讨价还价是人们习以为常的事。头戴面纱的妇女们迈着悠闲的步子从一个店铺逛到另一个店铺,一边挑选一边问价;在她们缩小选择范围并开始正儿八经杀价之前,往往总要先同店主谈论几句,探探价底。 4. 对于顾客来说,不到最后一刻绝不能让店主猜到她心里究竟中意哪样东西、想买哪样东西,因为这是个关乎面子的事情。假如店主猜中了她所要买的商品的话,他便会漫天要价,而且在还价过程中不肯做出让步。而在卖主那一方来说,他必须竭尽全力地声称,他开出的价钱根本无利可图,而他之所以愿意这样做完全是出于他本人对顾客的敬重。顾客有时来了又去,去了又来,因此,像这样讨价还价的情形有可能持续一整天,甚至好几天。 5.集市上最引人注目、给人印象最深刻的地方之一是铜器市场。你一走近这里,耳朵里便只听得见金属器皿互相碰击时所发出的一阵阵砰砰啪啪、丁丁当当的响声;走得越近,响声便越来越大,越

肯尼迪就职演说评析

美国第三十五任总统John Fitzgerald Francis Kennedy (1917-1963)约翰.弗.肯尼迪1961年元月20日在首都华盛顿国会大厦前发表“就职演说”时,我在读初中三年级,学的是俄语。直到1980年,我才在美国出版的“English For Today”“今日英语”教材的第五册里阅读到了这篇演说,而且还听了这篇演说的实况录音。现在这篇演说已被一字未删地选入《Advanced English》“高级英语”(张汉熙主编,商务印书馆出版发行),《21 Century College English》“二十一世纪大学英语”(复旦大学,交通大学主编;高等教育出版社,复旦大学出版社出版发行)英语教材里作为高等院校的英语学习教材。1980年,那时大学外语教学还是很原始落后的。我想得到英语版的联合国“人权宣言”,但在当时武汉的中南财经学院图书馆里没有。找到武汉大学图书馆,那里才只有一本油印的“人权宣言”小册子。我想得到英文版的“中华人民共和国刑法”这书,武汉的外文书店买不到。我托原北京地院外语老师去北京外国专家局找有关专家打听此书,专家说,《刑法》英文译文由他翻译,正在他手里,由于没有出版,他不能外借。肯尼迪“就职演说”是在演说之后十九年被我们看到。时过境迁,2009年元月20日,全世界几乎所有的人都能从网上及各种媒体上听到,见到,读到美国第一位黑人总统奥巴马的“就职演说”。虽然有的人看到的是被有些媒体屏掉了(Recall that earlier generations faced down Fascism and Communism not just with missiles and tanks but with sturdy alliances and enduring convictions.我们在此回忆先辈,他们战胜了法西斯主义和共产主义,靠的不仅是导弹,坦克;更是靠坚定的盟友和不移的信念。),(To those who cling to power through corruption and deceit and the silencing of dissent know that you are on the wrong side of history but that we will extend a hand if you are willing to unclench your fist.对于那些通过腐败,欺骗,压制异见来统治的人,你们应该知道你们站在了历史的对立面。但是,如果你们愿意放开紧攥的拳头,我们会向你们伸出一只手。)这些文字的演说,但是1961年那时代的人能听到,见到,读到的是完全不能与今天相比的了! 阅读翻译注释 1、Mr.Chief Justice,President Eisenhower,V ice President Nixon,President Truman,Reverend Clergy,Fellow Citizens,we observe today not a victory of party,but a celebration of freedom –symbolizing an end as well as a beginning –signifying renewal,as well as change.For I have sworn before you and Almighty God the same solemn oath our forebears prescribed nearly a century and three quarters ago.The world is very different now.For man holds in his mortal hands the power to abolish all forms of human poverty and all forms of human life.And yet the same revolutionary beliefs for which our forebears fought are still at issue around the globe – the belief that the rights of man come not from the generosity of the state,but from the hand of God. 首席法官先生,艾森豪威尔威尔总统,尼克松副总统,杜鲁门总统,尊敬的神父,同胞们;我们今天庆祝的不是一次政党的胜利而是庆祝自由精神的胜利- 这不仅象征结束–这还象征开始–意味着更新–也意味着变革。我在你们和全能的上帝面前宣读了将近一百七十年前我们祖先拟定的同一庒严的誓言。现在,这世界已完全不同了。人类把消除各种贫穷及毁灭各种形式的生活的力量握在巨手中。然而,在全球,我们祖先为之奋斗的相同的革命信念仍然在争论之中–这信念:人权不是来自国家的慷慨,而是来自上帝之手。

The house has been here since 1915, and no hurricane has ever caused any damage to it. 3. We can batten down and ride it out. We can make the necessary preparations and survive the hurricane without much damage. 4. The generator was doused, and the lights went out. Water got into the generator and put it out. It stopped producing electricity, so the lights also went out. 5. Everybody out the back door to the cars! Everybody go out through the back door and run to the cars. 6. The electrical systems had been killed by water. The electrical systems in the car had been put out by water. 7. John watched the water lap at the steps, and felt a crushing guilt. As John watched the water inch its way up the steps, he felt a strong sense of guilt because he blamed himself for endangering the whole family by deciding not to flee inland. 8. Get us through this mess, will you? Oh God, please help us to get through this storm safely. 9. She carried on alone for a few bars; then her voice trailed away. Grandmother Koshak sang a few words alone and then her voice gradually grew dimmer and stopped. 10. Janis had just one delayed reaction.

肯尼迪就职演说分析 篇一:肯尼迪就职演说评析 美国第三十五任总统JohnFitzgeraldFrancisKennedy(1917-1963)约翰.弗.肯尼迪1961年元月20日在首都华盛顿国会大厦前发表“就职演说”时,我在读初中三年级,学的是俄语。直到1980年,我才在美国出版的“EnglishForToday”“今日英语”教材的第五册里阅读到了这篇演说,而且还听了这篇演说的实况录音。现在这篇演说已被一字未删地选入《advancedEnglish》“高级英语”(张汉熙主编,商务印书馆出版发行),《21centurycollegeEnglish》“二十一世纪大学英语”(复旦大学,交通大学主编;高等教育出版社,复旦大学出版社出版发行)英语教材里作为高等院校的英语学习教材。1980年,那时大学外语教学还是很原始落后的。我想得到英语版的联合国“人权宣言”,但在当时武汉的中南财经学院图书馆里没有。找到武汉大学图书馆,那里才只有一本油印的“人权宣言”小册子。我想得到英文版的“中华人民共和国刑法”这书,武汉的外文书店买不到。我托原北京地院外语老师去北京外国专家局找有关专家打听此书,专家说,《刑法》英文译文由他翻译,正在他手里,由于没有出版,他不能外借。肯尼迪“就职演说”是在演说之后十九年被我们看到。时过境迁,20XX年元月20日,全世界几乎所有的人都能从网上及各种媒体上听到,见到,读到美国第一位黑人总统奥巴马的“就职演说”。虽然有的人看

高级英语1 Unit4 Oxford翻译

Unit4 牛津 There are certain things in the world that are so praiseworthy that it seems a needless, indeed an almost laughable thing to praise them; such things are love and friendship, food and sleep, spring and summer; such things, too, are the wisest books, the greatest pictures, the noblest cities. But for all that I mean to try and make a little hymn in prose in honour of Oxford, a city I have seen but seldom, and which yet appears to me one of the most beautiful things in the world. 此世间确有诸多凡物,它们本身便是值得人们去品味和赞誉的,譬如说爱情和友谊、美食和睡梦、春色和夏日,还有如那些注满了智慧的书卷、注满了心血的画作和注满了圣意的城邦。也许对于这些凡物而言,再多的赞誉已无非是陈词滥调,荒唐可笑的,但我之所以还是想要对上述这些事物品味、赞誉一番,都是为了向牛津城表示我的敬意。牛津城对我来说,就是这世间极其罕见,又最为美丽的地方之一。 I do not wish to single out particular buildings, but to praise the whole effect of the place, such as it seemed to me on a day of bright sun and cool air, when I wandered hour after hour among the streets, bewildered and almost intoxicated with beauty, feeling as a poor man might who has pinched all his life, and made the most of single coins, and who is brought into the presence of a heap of piled-up gold, and told that it is all his own. 我并不想单独从牛津城里遴选出一些建筑来赞誉;我想要赞誉的是这块土地上所映射出的一种整体效果。这种效果在我看来,就好比是在一个阳光明媚、天气清爽的日子里,一连花上几个小时,徜徉在牛津城的街道上,痴迷、甚至是沉醉于这番美景之中。这感觉就犹如是把一位穷得一辈子衣衫褴褛、靠一角一分过日子的人带到一堆金矿旁,然后告诉他,这些财富都已归他所有。 I have seen it said in foolish books that it is a misfortune to Oxford that so many of the buildings have been built out of so perishable a vein of stone. It is indeed a misfortune in one respect, that it tempts men of dull and precise minds to restore and replace buildings of incomparable grace, because their outline is so exquisitely blurred by time and decay. I remember myself, as a child, visiting Oxford, and thinking that some of the buildings were almost shamefully ruinous of aspect; now that I am wiser I know that we have in these battered and fretted palace-fronts a kind of beauty that fills the mind with almost despairing sense of loveliness, till the heart aches with gratitude, and thrills with the desire to proclaim the glory of the sight aloud. 我曾在一些荒谬、无理的书里读到说,牛津城里如此之多的建筑都用易被腐蚀、布满裂纹的砖石砌成,这简直就是一场灾难。从某种角度来说,这倒确实是一场灾难,因为随着时间的流逝,用这种砖石砌成的建筑会渐渐破败,建筑的轮廓会很明显地变得七零八落,这便会惹得那些脑袋不灵活的笨家伙们想着整修或重建这些与牛津城魅力格格不入的“破玩意儿”。记得在我儿时游访牛津城时,我也曾这么想——这些建筑如此破旧不堪,几乎都是见不得人了;可现在,随着我年数和阅历的增益,我才知道在那些破旧不堪、磨坏受损的殿堂式房子里,蕴藏着一种别样的魅力。这种魅力乍看上去真是令人几近绝望,直到人们对这壮观之景开始心生感激时,才会猛地萌发出一种要高声赞誉这股魅力的念头。 These black-fronted blistered facades, so threatening, so sombre, yet screening so bright and clear a current of life; with the tender green of budding spring trees, chestnuts full of silvery spires, glossy-leaved creepers clinging, with tiny hands, to cornice and parapet, give surely the sharpest and most delicate sense that it is possible to conceive of the contrast on which the essence of so much beauty depends. To pass through one of these dark and smoke-stained courts,
