luck马克吐温中英文

I was at a dinner in London given in honor of one of the most celebrated1 English military men of his time. I do not want to tell you his real name and titles. I will just call him Lieutenant2 General Lord Arthur Scoresby.

我出席了一次在伦敦举行的为当时最著名的英国军人举行的宴会。我不想告诉你他真实的名字和头衔，我只想叫他阿瑟.斯考兹比爵士。

I cannot describe my excitement when I saw this great and famous man. There he sat, the man himself, in person, all covered with medals. I could not take my eyes off him. He seemed to show the true mark of greatness. His fame had no effect on him. The hundreds of eyes watching him, the worship of so many people, did not seem to make any difference to him.

当我见到这位伟大而著名的人物的时候，兴奋之情无以言表。他独自一人坐在那里，浑身戴满了勋章。我的注意力无法从他身上挪开，他好象就是真正伟大的标志。他的名望对他根本没什么影响，成百上千双敬佩的眼睛，那么多人的崇敬似乎对他没有一丝影响。

Next to me sat a clergyman, who was an old friend of mine. He was not always a clergyman. During the first half of his life he was a teacher in the military school at Woolwich. There was a strange look in his eye as he leaned toward me and whispered –“Pri vately – he is a complete fool.” He meant, of course, the hero of our dinner.

坐在我旁边的是一位牧师，我的一位老朋友。他并不是一直是个牧师，他的前半生在吾尔维希的军校当一名老师。当他向我斜着身子轻声说话的时候，眼睛里有一种奇怪的表情：“别跟别人说，他是个十足的傻子。”他，当然指的是宴会上的那位英雄。

This came as a shock to me. I looked hard at my friend. I could not have been more surprised if he had said the same thing about Napoleon, or Socrates, or Solomon.

他的话使我感到很震惊。这比他说拿破伦或者苏格拉底或者所罗门王是傻子更令我吃惊。

But I was sure of two things about the clergyman. He always spoke3 the truth. And, his judgment4 of men was good. Therefore, I wanted to find out more about our hero as soon as I days later I got a chance to talk with the clergyman, and he told me more. These are his exact words:

但是，对于这位牧师，我有两点可以确信：他总是说实话和他对人的判断总是对的。因此，我想尽快找出我们那位大英雄的更多的秘密。几天以后，我找到了一个和这位牧师谈话的机会。下面就是他跟我说的，原文是：

About forty years ago, I was an instructor5 in the military academy at Woolwich, when young Scoresby was given his first examination. I felt extremely sorry for him. Everybody answered the questions well, intelligently, while he – why, dear me – he did not know anything, so to speak. He was a nice, pleasant young man. It was painful to see him stand there and give answers that were miracles of stupidity.

大约四十年前，我在吾尔维希军事学院任教的时候，年轻的斯考兹比参加了他的第一次考试。我感到他那么可怜，每个人都出色机智地回答了问题，而他----我的天，不知道为什么----也就是说，他什么也不知道。他是个友善的、举止文雅的年轻人。看着他象块木头一样站在那儿，净给出一些愚蠢的回答，真是一件痛苦的事。

I knew of course that when examined again he would fail and be thrown out. So, I said to myself, it would be a simple, harmless act to help him as much as I could.

我当然知道，如果再考一次他还失败的话，他将会被开除了。于是，我对自己说，我尽自己最大所能去帮助他，将是一件简单而无恶意的善事。

I took him aside and found he knew a little about Julius Caesar’s history. But, he did not know anything else. So, I went to work and tested him and worked him like a slave. I made him work, over and over again, on a few questions about Caesar, which I knew he would be asked.

我把他带到一边，发现他知道有关凯撒的一点历史。由于其它的东西他都不知道，我就开始逼着他象做苦工一样学习和检测。我反复地让他学习一些我知道会用上的关于凯撒的问题。

If you will believe me, he came through very well on the day of the examination. He got high praise too, while others who knew a thousand times more than he were sharply criticized. By some strange, lucky accident, he was asked no questions but those I made him study. Such an accident does not happen more than once in a hundred years.

请相信我，考试那天他出色地通过了，也得到了很高的赞赏。那些知道的比他多一千倍的人也通过了考试。出于奇妙而幸运的巧合，除了我教他的那些问题以外，别的什么都没有问道。象这样的巧合，一百年也不会发生一次。

Well, all through his studies, I stood by him, with the feeling a mother has for a disabled child. And he always saved himself by some miracle.

不过，虽然他学习的时候，我就象一位照顾有残疾的孩子的母亲一样待在他身边，他还是通过一些奇迹救了自己。

I thought that what in the end would destroy him would be the mathematics examination. I decided6 to make his end as painless as possible. So, I pushed facts into his stupid head for hours. Finally, I let him go to the examination to experience what I was sure would be his dismissal from school. Well, sir, try to imagine the result. I was shocked out of my mind. He took first prize! And he got the highest praise.

我想最终会毁掉他的可能是数学。我决定尽可能使他的结局没有痛苦。我长时间地训练他，把知识硬塞进他那迟钝的脑壳。我只在那些考官们最有可能提出的问题上训练和灌输他。最后，我又让他吃了一些补脑药。呵。先生，你就尽力想象一下吧，我都被自己的智慧给震惊了，他得了一等奖!并且得到了最高奖励。

I felt guilty day and night – what I was doing was not right. But I only wanted to make his dismissal a little less painful for him. I never dreamed it would lead to such strange, laughable thought that sooner or later one thing was sure to happen: The first real test once he was through school would ruin him.

我日夜承受着良心的谴责----我所做的一切都是错误的，但是起初我只是想使他被开除的时候没那么痛苦。这纯粹是处于善意，我做梦也没想到会产生这样奇异的令人发笑的结果。我想一件事迟早肯定会发生：第一次真正的考试会毁了他。

Then, the Crimean War broke out. I felt that sad for him that there had to be a war. Peace would have given this donkey a chance to escape from ever being found out as being so stupid. Nervously7, I waited for the worst to happen. It did. He was appointed an officer. A captain, of all things! Who could have dreamed that they would place such a responsibility on such weak shoulders as his.

后来，克里米亚战争爆发了，我觉得对他来讲，战争是一件悲哀的事。和平的时候，可以给这头蠢驴一次机会，免得他被别人发现是个白痴。我神经紧张地等着最糟糕的事情发生。它的确发生了，它发生的时候，恐惧在我的大脑里萦绕不停。他被任命成了队长，负责全部事物的队长!谁能想到他们会把如此重任放在象他那样柔弱的肩膀上呢!队长!我觉得我的头发会愁白的。

I said to myself that I was responsible to the country for this. I must go with him and protect the nation against him as far as I could. So, I joined up with him. And away we went to the field.

你想想我做了些什么我跟自己说，我要为此事对国家负责：我必须和他一块去尽力保卫这个国家。于是我和他一块加入了部队，我们开到了战场。

And there – oh dear, it was terrible. Mistakes, fearful mistakes – why, he never did anything that was right – nothing but mistakes. But, you see, nobody knew the secret of how stupid he really was. Everybody misunderstood his actions. They saw his stupid mistakes as works of great intelligence. They did, honestly! His smallest mistakes made a man in his right mind cry, and shout and scream too – to himself, of course. And what kept me in a continual fear was the fact that every mistake he made increased his glory and fame.

在那----哦，老天，太可怕了。愚蠢的错误，可怕的错误----为什么，他从来没做过对的事情----除了愚蠢的错误。但是，你知道，没人知道他有多么愚蠢这个秘密。大家都在执行他的错误指示，当然都误解了他的战斗部署。他们把他白痴式的错误看成了天才的指挥，并且，一丝不扣地执行了。他犯的一个最小的错误使一个想法正确的人痛苦了起来，怒气冲冲地朝着他大嚷大叫，而且使我一直害怕的是，他犯的每一个错误都为他的愚蠢赢得了更多的荣誉和更高的名声。”

I kept saying to myself that when at last they find out about him, it will be like the sun falling out of the sky.

我一直在对自己说，当他们最终看清了他时，那就会象太阳从天空坠落一样。

He continued to climb up, over the dead bodies of his superiors. Then, in the hottest moment of one battle down went our colonel. My heart jumped into my mouth, for Scoresby was the next in line to take his place. Now, we are in for it, I said…

他踩着上级的尸体不断地往上爬。后来，在战斗最激烈的时候，我们的上校阵亡了。我的心一下子跳到了嗓子眼，对于斯考兹比，下一个要取代的就是他的位置。现在，我们要吃苦头了，我想。

The battle grew hotter. The English and their allies were steadily8 retreating all over the field. Our regiment9 occupied a position that was extremely important. One mistake now would bring total disaster.

战斗越来越激烈，英国人和他们的盟友持续地全线溃退。我们团占领了一处极其重要的

位置。现在一个愚蠢的错误就会带来致命的灾难。

And what did Scoresby do this time –he just mistook his left hand for his right hand…that was all. An order came for him to fall back and support our right. Instead, he moved forward and went over the hill to the left. We were over the hill before this insane movement could be discovered and stopped. And what did we find A large and unsuspected Russian army waiting!

这次斯考兹比会做什么呢----他能做的，只会把左右手给搞错。上级下达了命令，让他后退来支持其他部队的右翼，可是，他却往前进发，爬上了左面的山头。这次疯狂的行动还没来得及发觉和阻止，我们已经爬上了左面的山头。我们发现了什么呢一整支毫无戒备的俄过部队正在那里待命。

And what happened –were we all killed That is exactly what would have happened in ninety-nine cases out of a hundred. But no –those surprised Russians thought that no one regiment by itself would come around there at such a must be the whole British army, they thought. They turned tail, away they went over the hill and down into the field in wild disorder10, and we after them. In no time, there was the greatest turn around you ever saw. The allies turned defeat into a sweeping11 and shining victory.

接下来发生什么了，我们被吃掉了吗----但是并没有发生----那些被吓坏了的俄国兵争吵了起来，他们认为，在那样紧张的时刻，不可能只有一个团在那里游荡。他们认为那肯定是整个英国军队。他们掉转方向仓促地跑到了另一座山上，又下了山，陷入了血腥混乱的战场。我们就跟在他们后面，接着他们就开始了从未见过的大溃败。盟军们转败为胜，取得了辉煌的胜利。

The allied12 commander looked on, his head spinning with wonder, surprise and joy. He sent right off for Scoresby, and put his arms around him and hugged him on the field in front of all the armies.

堪劳波特元帅在旁观战，惊奇而高兴地左右看着。他把右线让出来给斯考兹比，让自己的军队配合他，把他放在了所有军队的最前沿。

Scoresby became famous that day as a great military leader – honored throughout the world. That honor will never disappear while history books last.

那天斯考兹比赢得的军事天才的美誉传遍了世界，这种荣誉将永载史册。他还是象以前那样友善和举止文雅，他仍然不很清楚在雨天是呆在屋里还是出去。他还是天下那个最笨的傻瓜。

Until now, nobody knew it but Scoresby and myself. He has been followed, day by day, year by year, by a strange luck. He has been a shining soldier in all our wars for years. He has filled his whole military life with mistakes. Every one of them brought him another honorary title. Look at his chest, flooded with British and foreign medals. Well, sir, every one of them is the record of some great stupidity or other.

直到现在，除了斯考兹比和我自己，没人知道这件事。一天天，一年年，他总是伴随着奇妙的好运。多少年来，他是我们所有的战役中都耀眼的战士。他的整个军事生涯都在不断地犯着愚蠢的错误，而每一次错误都使他成了爵士或者其它的爵位。看他前胸都戴满了国内和国外的勋章。哎，先生，每一枚勋章都是某一个极其愚蠢行为的记录。

They are proof that the best thing that can happen to a man is to be born lucky. I say again, as I did at the dinner, Scoresby’s a complete fool.

好事总是发生在一个天生幸运的人身上，那些勋章就是证据。我再重复一次，正如我在宴会上说的，斯考兹比绝对是一个十足的笨蛋!

马克_吐温_从幽默到讽刺_英文2

Mark Twain:from humor to satire Abstract:Mark Twain, a mastermind of humor and realism, is seen as a giant in world literature. His humor had great impact on the following men of letters; critics also attached significant importance to it and put forward various interpretations. However,humor could no more be found in Twain's later works. On the contrary, it was replaced by bitter satire. Why did Twain change his writing style as well his attitude towards life?What was the cause of this sharp conversion? Focusing on these questions, the paper tries to analyze the basic elements which affected Twain from social influence and personal encounters respectively, aiming at offering rational analysis of this shift as well as making Twain's works readily understood.

In other words, Twain in his writing career experienced a change from being cheerful and optimistic to despairing and pessimistic But what cause his shift from humor to satir? Personally, both social influence and personal encounters play critical roles in changing his writing from humor to satire and his attitude toward life as well ⅡSocial influences Both the American Civil war( happened in 1861 and lasted till1865) and the re-construction after the war greatly affected Twain‘s writing style. Mark Twain was born in Florida, Missouri, on30 November In 1835,into a lawyer family.With the advent of

鲁迅与马克吐温讽刺手法比较(英文)

Comparison On satire in Luxun’s and Mark Twain’s Works HUANGHE S&T COLLEGE SCHOOL OF FOREIGN LANGUAGES ZHOU ZHAN JUN (黄河科技学院外国语学院周战军) Abstract:Living during the period of 19th-20th century, Lu Xun and Mark Twain are two great representatives of Chinese and American novelists respectively. Both of them are masters of writing in satire. This article compares the similarities and differences in their satire and has the conclusion that their influence is still far-reaching. Key Words: comparison; satire; direct satire; roundabout satire I. Purpose of the thesis Both Lu Xun and Mark Twain are masters of satire and contribute a lot to Chinese and American literature respectively. They had great influence upon writers after them, especially for their writing vehicles—satire. So far many researchers have become increasingly interested in Lu Xun’s satire or Mark Twain’s satire. However, few studies have made on the comparison of Lu Xun’s satire and Mark Twain’s satire. This is one of the reas ons why I’m interested in this topic. For other reasons, they had a large number of similarities: Lu Xun was the penname of Zhou Shuren; Mark Twain, pseudonym of Samuel Clemens. The life span of the two writers covered nearly the same age, Lu Xun was born in 1881, and died in 1936; while Mark Twain lived from 1835 to 1910. Meanwhile, Lu Xun was the founder of modern Baihua; while Mark Twain played a very important role in spreading American Colloquialism. Both Baihua and Colloquialism are milestones in literature. The most important reason why I’d like writing this is that I appreciate Lu Xun and Mark Twain’s prominent satire. S ome experts had analyzed Mark Twain’s satire, they pointed out that Mark Twain mixed humor with satire. Some scholars even argued th at Mark Twain’s writing style was transferred from humor to satire. Still, other studies have shown that Lu Xun described the psychology and performance of characters to criticize the unawake people. In this thesis, I want to make a comparison on Lu Xun’s satire and Mark Twain’s satire, to have a preliminary study on the style of their satire. In order to finish this job, some books are helpful, such as Lu Xun’s Kong Yiji, The True Story of Ah Q, The Medicine,Mark Twain’s The Notorious Jumping Frog of Calaveras Country, The Man That Corrupted Hadleyburg. Meanwhile, some writer’s views about Lu Xun and Mark Twain’s satire are also very important, such as Li Chuanpen, his article “On Lu Xun’s satire” argues that Lu Xun made full use of people’s appearance, ps ychology and action to criticize people’s apathy. [1] He gives us an example―Kong Yiji’s words and clothings. Y e Mang, “On the Satire of Lun Xun’s Novel”, published in June 15th 2007, points out in The True Story of Ah Q, Lu Xun used Ah Q’s view to satirize the people’s indifference.Wei Desan, “On the Satire of Mark Twain” argues that Mark Twain made full use of the arrangement of the plots and humorous words to criticize the evil. [2]He Dongyan, “On Mark Twain’s Humor” points out Mark Twain mixed humor and satire to satirize the injustice. [3] The purpose of this paper is to make a comparison on Lu Xun’s and Mark Twain’s satire, to find out the differences and similarities of their satire.

马克吐温 (Mark Twain, 1835～1910) 美国作家。塞缪尔·朗赫恩·克莱门斯的笔名。1835年11月31日生在密苏里州佛罗里达镇，长在密西西比河上的小城汉尼拔。父亲是个不得意的乡村律师和店主，在他12岁时去世。他曾拜师学习排字。1851年在他的哥哥欧莱恩开办的报馆中充当排字工人，并开始学习写作幽默小品。1853年后在美国中西部和东部作排字工人。1856年去新奥尔良，想转道去巴西，在乘船沿密西西比河南下时遇见老舵手贺拉斯·毕克斯比，拜他为师，18个月出师后在密西西比河上做舵手，直至内战爆发，水路交通断绝。在战争中他曾一度参加南军。1861年欧莱恩被林肯总统派去西部内华达领地政府任秘书，他随同前往，试图在经营木材业与矿业中发财致富，均未成功，便转而以写文章为生。1862年在内华达弗吉尼亚城一家报馆工作。1863年开始使用“马克·吐温”的笔名。这个词是密西西比河水手的行话,意思是“12英尺深”,指水的深度足使航船通行无阻。1864年，在旧金山结识幽默作家阿·沃德和小说家布·哈特，得到他们的鼓励和帮助，提高了写作的本领。1865年在纽约一家杂志发表幽默故事《卡拉韦拉斯县驰名的跳蛙》，根据一个流行已久的传说改写，生动地表现了当时在开发中的美国西部所特有的幽默的风格,加上突出的运用口语的文风,风行一时，使他全国闻名。此后经常为报刊撰写幽默文章。1866年去夏威夷岛采访，1867年作为记者乘“桂格城”号轮船随一批旅游者去欧洲和巴勒斯坦旅行。他写的报道后来辑成《傻子国外旅行记》(1869)，此书嘲笑了欧洲的封建残余和宗教愚昧，也讽刺了富有的美国旅游者的庸俗无知。 1870年马克·吐温与奥莉薇娅·兰登结婚。她是纽约州一个资本家的女儿。这段婚姻对马克·吐温的影响如何，历来有两种见解：一种认为他的妻子成了他的作品的检查官，妨碍他偏于粗犷的才能的发挥。多数人则认为这段婚姻不妨碍他的创作，反而是相辅相成，十分美满。 马克·吐温婚后居住在布法罗，自己编辑发行《快报》，一年后因赔钱过多而出让。1872年出版《艰苦岁月》一书，反映了他在西部新开发地区的生活经历，其中记载了一些奇闻轶事，特别是富有美国西部特色的幽默故事。1873年他同查·沃纳合写的《镀金时代》，是他第一部长篇小说。它讽刺美国内战后资本主义迅速发展时社会上投机暴发以及政治腐败的情况，其中描写了两个著名的人物：赛勒斯上校彬彬有礼，慷慨好客，虽贫无一文，但充满轻易致富的幻想；参议员狄尔华绥是政客，满口仁义道德，其实投机欺诈，无所不为。这两个人物形象也是“镀金时代”精神的人格化。 1871年马克·吐温举家移居东部康涅狄格州哈特福德，这时他已成为有名的作家和幽默演说家。此后的20年是他创作的丰收年代。他常和一些文人来往，其中著名的有斯托夫人和威·迪·豪威尔斯，受后者的影响较深。1875年马克·吐温应豪威尔斯之约，为《大西洋月刊》撰文。他以早年在密西西比河上做舵手的生活为题材，写了7篇文章，后汇集成书，名为《密西西比河的往事》。这本书用自传体，以幽默的笔法，现实主义和浪漫主义结合的风格，把密西西比河和河边小镇的生活写得十分生动。8年后，他回到家乡，把这本书扩充成为《密西西比河上》(1883)，其中特别有价值的是记载了他早年在船上时与舵手们联合起来成立协会，为保护自身的经济利益与船长作斗争的事迹。此后密西西比河和在家乡汉尼拔的童年生活成为他的几本杰作的题材的来源。 1876年，长篇小说《汤姆·索耶历险记》出版。它虽然是以密西西比河上某小镇为背景的少年读物，但为任何年龄的读者所喜爱。书中写淘气的汤姆和他的伙伴哈克贝里·费恩以及汤姆的女友贝姬·撒切尔的许多故事，不少是作者的亲身经历，有许多合乎孩子心理的有趣情节。书中也讽刺了宗教的伪善，但结尾写汤姆和哈克贝里发现藏金致富，哈克贝里又被

马克吐温美国的一面镜子

第九课 马克?吐温——美国的一面镜子 (节选) 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
