Marrakech 马拉喀什见闻

1、 As the corpse went past the flies left the restaurant table in a cloud and rushed after it, but they came back a few minutes later. 尸体被抬过去的时候,成群的苍蝇嗡嗡地飞离了餐馆的饭桌,尾随

尸体去,几分钟后又嗡嗡地飞了回来。

2、 The little crows of mourners – all me and boys, no women –threaded their way across the marker place between the piles of pomegranates and the taxis and the camels, wailing a short chant

over and over again. What really appeals to the flied is that the corpses here are never put into coffins; they are merely wrapped in a piece of ray and carried on a rough wooden bier on the shoulders of four friends. When the friends get to the burying-ground they hack

an oblong hole afoot or two deep, dump the body in it and fling over

it a little of the dried-up, lumpy earth, which is like broken brick. No gravestone, no name, no identifying mark of any kind. The burying-ground is merely a huge waste of hummocky earth. Like a derelict building-lot. After a month or two no one can even be certain where his own relatives are buried.

一支人数不多的送葬队伍-其中老老小小全是男的,没有女人-挤过

一堆堆的石榴,穿行在出租车和骆驼之间,迂回着穿过市场,嘴里

还一遍遍地哀号着一支短促的悲歌。真正令苍蝇感兴趣的是这里的

尸体从来都不装进棺材,而是只用一块破布裹着,放在一副粗糙的

木制担架上,有死者的四位朋友抬去送葬。达到坟场后,朋友们首

先挖出一块一两英尺深的长方形的坑,将尸体扔入坑中,再在上面丢一些像碎砖头一样的干土块。没有墓碑,没有留名,也没有任何

身份标志,坟场只不过是一片巨大的如同一块废弃的建筑工地般土丘林立的荒原。一两个月之后,就谁也找不到自己亲人的坟墓之处了。

3、 When you walk through a town like this – two hundred thousand inhabitants of whom at least twenty thousand own literally nothing except the rags they stand op in – when you see how the people live, and still more how easily they die, it is always difficult to believe that you are walking among human beings. All colonial empires are in reality founded upon this fact. The people have brown faces – besides, there are so many o them! Are they really the sane flesh as your self? Do they even have names? Or are they merely a kind of undifferentiated brown stuff, about as individual as bees or coral insects? They rise out of the earth, they sweat and starve for a few years, and then they sink back into the nameless mounds of the graveyard and nobody notices that they are gone. And even the graves themselves soon fade back into the soil. Sometimes, out for a walk as you break your way through the prickly pear, you notice that it is rather bumpy underfoot, and only a certain regularity in the bumps tells you that you are walking over skeletons.

当你徒步走过这样的城镇-在20万当地居民中,至少有2万人除了罩在身上的一身破布外,其他一无所有-当你看到这些人如何生存,又如何轻易地死去时,你永远难以相信自己是在人类中穿行。但事实上,这正是所有殖民帝国赖以建立的基础。这些人有着棕色的脸孔-而且,他们人数众多!他们果真和你一样是人类吗?他们也有名有姓吗?或者他们只是一种棕色的、像蜜蜂或珊瑚虫那样难以区分的生物呢?他们生于土地,挥汗如雨,忍饥挨饿地过上几年过后,就被埋到坟场里不知名的坟堆下。没有人注意到他们的离去,甚至这些无名坟堆本身也很快会变成一片平地。有时,当你外出散步穿过仙人掌丛时,你会注意到脚下的土地格外不平,只有这些有规则的突起的土包才会告诉你:你正踩在死人骷髅的上面。

4、 I was feeding one of the gazelles in the public gardens.

在公园里,我正在给一只瞪羚喂食。

5、 Gazelles are almost the only animals that look good to eat when they are still alive, in fact, one can hardly look at their hindquarters without thinking of a mint sauce. They gazelle I was feeding seemed to know that this thought was in my mind, for though it took the piece of bread I was holding out it obviously did not like me. It nibbled rapidly at the bread, then lowered its head and tried to butt me, then took another nibble and then butted again. Probably its idea was that if it could drive me away the bread would somehow remain hanging in mid-air.

瞪羚几乎是唯一一种活时就让人觉得很美味的动物。实际上,光是看到它的两条后腿就会令人联想到薄荷酱。我正在喂食的这只瞪羚几乎已经看出我的这点心思,尽管它叼走了我手上的面包,但它显然对我这个人并没有好感。它迅速地轻咬了一口面包,然后低下头,试图用脑袋顶我,然后又啃了口面包,又顶了一次。它大概以为,如果把我撵跑,面包仍会在半空中。

6、 An Arab navy working on the path nearby lowered his heavy hoe and sidled slowly towards us. He looked from the gazelle to the bread and from the bread to the gazelle, with a sort of quiet amazement, as though he had never seen anything quite like this before. Finally he said shyly in French: “ I could eat some of that bread.”

在附近小路上干活的一个阿拉伯民工放下笨重的锄头,慢慢地侧着身子走向我们。他那诧异的目光从瞪羚移向面包,又从面包移向瞪羚,好像他是第一次见到这样的情形。最后他用法语怯怯的问道:“那面包我能吃点吗?”

7、 I tore off a piece and he stowed it gratefully in some secret place under his rages. This man is an employee of the municipality.

我撕下一片面包,他感激涕零地把面包收在破衣服下的隐蔽地方。这个人是市政当局的一名雇工。

8、 When you go through the Jewish quarters you gather some idea of what the medieval ghettoes were probably like. Under their Moorish rulers the Jew were only allowed to own land in certain

restricted areas, and after centuries of this kind of treatment they have ceased to bother about overcrowding. Many of the streets are a good deal less than six feet wide, the houses are completely windowless, and sore-eyed children cluster everywhere in unbelievable numbers, like clouds of flied. Down the centre of the street there is generally running a little river of urine.

当你经过犹太人居住区时,你可能就会了解中世纪的犹太人区大概是个什么样子。在摩尔人的统治下,犹太人只允许在几个规定的区域内拥有土地,而经历过几个世纪这样的待遇后,犹太人已不再为过度拥挤而头痛了。这儿的许多街道还不及六英尺宽;而房子则没有窗户;眼睛红肿的孩子成群结队,像一群群的苍蝇,四处可见,多得令人难以置信。沿着街中心向下走,往往尿流成河。

9、 In the bazaar huge families of Jews, all dressed in the long black robe and little black skull-cap, are working in dark fly-infested booths that look like caves. A carpenter sits cross-legged at a prehistoric lathe, turning chair-legs at lightning speed. He works the lathe with a bow in his right hand and guides the chisel with his left foot, and thanks to a lifetime of sitting in this position his left leg is warped out of shape. At his side his grandson, aged six, is already starting on the simpler parts of the job.

在集市上,一大家一大家的犹太人都穿着黑色长袍,头上戴着黑色便帽,在看起来如同洞穴一般光线暗淡、苍蝇遍布的货摊里干活。

一个木工盘腿坐在一架古老的车窗旁,速度极快地旋制着椅子腿。他右手拿弓开动车床,左手引动凿子。由于长期都保持这样的坐姿,他的左腿已经弯曲变形了。他六岁的孙子则坐在旁边,已经开始帮着做些简单的活了。

10、 I was just passing the coppersmiths’ booths when somebody noticed that I was lighting a cigarette. Instantly, from the dark holes all round, there was a frenzied rush of Jews, many of them old grandfathers with flowing grey beards, all clamouring for a cigarette. Even a blind man somewhere at the back of one of the booths heard a rumour of cigarettes and came crawling out, groping in the air with his hand. In about a minute I had used op the whole packet. None of these people, I suppose, works less than twelve hours a day, and every one of them looks on a cigarette as a more or less impossible luxury.

当我正要走过铜匠铺子时,有人注意到我正点着一支香烟。刹那间,大批疯狂的犹太人从四面八方的黑洞窟里钻了出来,其中还有很多胡子斑白的老人,他们都争着要讨支香烟。甚至一位盲人也从铺子后面爬了出来,手在空中胡乱摸索着。不到一分钟的时间,我的整包香烟就全分完了。我想这些人中没有谁每天工作少于12个小时,但每个人都视一根香烟为一种无法承担的奢侈品。

11、 As the Jews live in self-contained communities they follow the same trades as the Arabs, except for agriculture. Fruit sellers, potters,

silversmiths, blacksmiths, butchers, leather-workers, tailors, water-carriers, beggars, porters – whichever way you look you see nothing but Jews. As a matter of fact there are thirteen thousand of them, all living in the space of a few acres. A good job Hitler wasn’t here. Perhaps he was on his way, however. You hear the usual dark rumours about Jews, not only from the Arabs but from the poorer Europeans.

由于犹太人生活在一个自给自足的社会里,他们与阿拉伯人从事一样的行业,农业除外。他们当中有水果贩子、陶制工、银匠、铁匠、屠夫、皮匠、裁缝、运水工、乞丐、脚夫等-放眼望去,到处都是犹太人。事实上,在这块仅几亩大的土地上,竟然生活着13000个犹太人。幸运的是,希特勒并未光顾过这里。或许他曾经想过来这里。你常听到的有关犹太人的不利传言,不仅来自阿拉伯人,还来自较穷的欧洲人。

12、“Yes mon vieux, they tool my job away from me and gave it to a Jew. Tee Jews! They’re the real rulers of this country, you know. They’ve got all the money. They control the banks, finance –everything.”

“老兄啊,他们夺走我的工作给了犹太人。这些犹太人啊!你知道吧,他们才是这个国家真正的统治者。他们卷走了全部的钱,他们还控制了银行、财政-一切的一切。”

13、“But”, I said, “isn’t it a fact that the average Jew is a labourer working for about a penny an hour?”

“但是”我说道,“事实上一般的犹太人不是都在为每小时一便士的微博工钱而劳作吗?”

14、“Ah, that’s only for show! They’re all money lenders really. They’re cunning, the Jews.”

“啊,那只不过是装装样子。他们其实都是放债的债主,犹太人狡诈得很呢。”

15、 In just the same way, a couple of hundred years ago, poor old women used to be burned for witchcraft when they could not even work enough magic to get themselves a square meal.

想想与这相同的一幕吧:好几百年前,常有些可怜的老妇人因为拥有巫术而被烧死,但她们却甚至没办法利用自己的巫术让自己饱餐一顿。

16、 All people who work with their hands are partly invisible, and the more important the work they do, the less visible they are. Still, a white skin is always fairly conspicuous. In northern Europe, when you see a labourer ploughing a field, you probably give him a second glance. In a hot country, anywhere south of Gibraltar or east of Suez, the chances are that you don’t even see him. I have noticed this again and again. In a tropical landscape one’s eye takes in everything except the human beings. It talks in the dried-up soil, the prickly

pear, the palm tree and the distant mountain, but it always misses the peasant hoeing at his patch. He is the same colour as the earth, and a great deal less interesting to look at.

所有那些靠自己的双手劳动的人都不太引人注意,他们干的活越辛苦,就越不引人注目。然而,白皮肤却总是那么显眼。在北欧,当你看到一个农民在耕地,你可能会多看他两眼。而在一个热带国家,直布罗陀以南或者苏伊士运河以东,同样的情况下,你甚至根本注意不到耕地的人。我一次又一次地注意到了这个情形。在热带地区,一切自然景色尽收眼底,唯独看不到人。人们可以看到干巴巴的土地、仙人掌、棕榈树,还有远处连绵的群山,但往往遗漏了在地里耕作的农夫。他们的肤色接近土壤的颜色,却远远不及土壤耐看。

17、 It is only because of this that the starved countries of Asia and Africa are accepted as tourist resorts. No one would think of running cheap trips to the Distressed Areas. But where the human beings have brown skins their poverty is simply not noticed. What does Morocco mean to a Frenchman? An orange grove or a job in Government service. Or to an Englishman? Camels, castles, palm trees, Foreign Legionnaires, brass trays, and bandits. One could probably live there for years without noticing that for nine-tenths of the people the reality of life is an endless back-breaking struggle to wring a little food out of an eroded soil.

unit 2马拉喀什见闻

马拉喀什见闻 乔治·奥威尔 一具尸体抬过,成群的苍蝇从饭馆的餐桌上瓮嗡嗡而起追逐过去,但几分钟过后又非了回来。 一支人数不多的送葬队伍——其中老少尽皆男性,没有一个女的——沿着集贸市场,从一堆堆石榴摊子以及出租汽车和骆驼中间挤道而行,一边走着一边悲痛地重复着一支短促的哀歌。苍蝇之所以群起追逐是因为在这个地方死人的尸首从不装进棺木,只是用一块破布裹着放在一个草草做成的木头架子上,有四个朋友抬着送葬。朋友们到了安葬场后,便在地上挖出一个一二英尺深的长方形坑,将尸首往坑里一倒。再扔一些像碎砖头一样的日、干土块。不立墓碑,不留姓名,什么识别标志都没有。坟场只不过是一片土丘林立的荒野,恰似一片已废弃不用的建筑场地。一两个月过后,就谁也说不准自己的亲人葬于何处了。 当你穿行也这样的城镇——其居民20万中至少有2万是除开一身聊以蔽体的破衣烂衫之外完全一无所有——当你看到那些人是如何生活,又如何动辄死亡时,你永远难以相信自己是行走在人类之中。实际上,这是所有的殖民帝国赖以建立的基础。这里的人都有一张褐色的脸,而且,人数书如此之多!他们真的和你意义同属人类吗?难道他们也会有名有姓吗?也许他们只是像彼此之间难以区分的蜜蜂或珊瑚虫一样的东西。他们从泥土里长出来,受哭受累,忍饥挨饿过上几年,然后有被埋在那一个个无名的小坟丘里。谁也不会注意到他们的离去。就是那些小坟丘本身也过不了很久便会变成平地。有时当你外出散步,穿过仙人掌丛时,你会感觉到地上有些绊脚的东西,只是在经过多次以后,摸清了其一般规律时,你才会知道你脚下踩的是死人的骷髅。 我正在公园里给一只瞪羚喂食。 动物中也恐怕只有瞪羚还活着时就让人觉得是美味佳肴。事实上,人们只要看到它们那两条后腿就会联想到薄荷酱。我现在喂着的这只瞪羚好象已经看透了我的心思。它虽然叼走了拿在手上的一块面包,但显然不喜欢我这个人。它一面啃食着面包,一面头一低向我顶过来,再啃一下面包又顶过来一次。它大概还因为把我赶开之后那块面包仍会悬在空中。 一个正在附近小道上干活的阿拉伯挖土工放下笨重的锄头,羞怯地侧着身子慢慢朝我们走过来。他把目光从瞪羚身上移向面包,又从面包转回到瞪羚身上,带着一点惊讶的神色,似乎以前从未建国这种情景。终于,他怯生生的用法语说道:“那面包让我吃一点吧。” 我撕下一块面包,他感激地把面包放进破衣裳贴身的地方。这人是市政当局的雇工。

高级英语第二册课文翻译 Unit1 Pub Talk and the King's English 酒吧闲聊与标准英语 亨利?费尔利 人类的一切活动中,只有闲谈最宜于增进友谊,而且是人类特有的一种活动。动物之间的信息交流,不论其方式何等复杂,也是称不上交谈的。 闲谈的引人人胜之处就在于它没有一个事先定好的话题。它时而迂回流淌,时而奔腾起伏,时而火花四射,时而热情洋溢,话题最终会扯到什么地方去谁也拿不准。要是有人觉得“有些话要说”,那定会大煞风景,使闲聊无趣。闲聊不是为了进行争论。闲聊中常常会有争论,不过其目的并不是为了说服对方。闲聊之中是不存在什么输赢胜负的。事实上,真正善于闲聊的人往往是随时准备让步的。也许他们偶然间会觉得该把自己最得意的奇闻轶事选出一件插进来讲一讲,但一转眼大家已谈到别处去了,插话的机会随之而失,他们也就听之任之。 或许是由于我从小混迹于英国小酒馆的缘故吧,我觉得酒瞎里的闲聊别有韵味。酒馆里的朋友对别人的生活毫无了解,他们只是临时凑到一起来的,彼此并无深交。他们之中也许有人面临婚因破裂,或恋爱失败,或碰到别的什么不顺心的事儿,但别人根本不管这些。他们就像大仲马笔下的三个火枪手一样,虽然日夕相处,却从不过问彼此的私事,也不去揣摸别人内心的秘密。 有一天晚上的情形正是这样。人们正漫无边际地东扯西拉,从最普通的凡人俗事谈到有关木星的科学趣闻。谈了半天也没有一个中心话题,事实上也不需要有一个中心话题。可突然间大伙儿的话题都集中到了一处,中心话题奇迹般地出现了。我记不起她那句话是在什么情况下说出来的——她显然不是预先想好把那句话带到酒馆里来说的,那也不是什么非说不可的要紧话——我只知道她那句话是随着大伙儿的话题十分自然地脱口而出的。 “几天前,我听到一个人说‘标准英语’这个词语是带贬义的批评用语,指的是人们应该尽量避免使用的英语。” 此语一出,谈话立即热烈起来。有人赞成,也有人怒斥,还有人则不以为然。最后,当然少不了要像处理所有这种场合下的意见分歧一样,由大家说定次日一早去查证一下。于是,问题便解决了。不过,酒馆闲聊并不需要解决什么问题,大伙儿仍旧可以糊里糊涂地继续闲扯下去。 告诉她“标准英语”应作那种解释的原来是个澳大利亚人。得悉此情,有些人便说起刻薄话来了,说什么囚犯的子孙这样说倒也不足为怪。这样,在五分钟内,大家便像到澳大利亚游览了一趟。在那样的社会里,“标准英语”自然是不受欢迎的。每当上流社会想给“规范英语”制订一些条条框框时,总会遭到下层人民的抵制 看看撒克逊农民与征服他们的诺曼底统治者之间的语言隔阂吧。于是话题又从19世纪的澳大利亚囚犯转到12世纪的英国农民。谁对谁错,并没有关系。闲聊依旧热火朝天。 有人举出了一个人所共知,但仍值得提出来发人深思的例子。我们谈到饭桌上的肉食时用法语词,而谈到提供这些肉食的牲畜时则用盎格鲁一撒克逊词。猪圈里的活猪叫pig,饭桌上吃的猪肉便成了pork(来自法语pore);地里放牧着的牛叫cattle,席上吃的牛肉则叫beef(来自法语boeuf);Chicken用作肉食时变成poultry(来自法语poulet);calf加工成肉则变成veal(来自法语vcau)。即便我们的菜单没有为了装洋耍派头而写成法语,我们所用的英语仍然是诺曼底式的英语。这一切向我们昭示了诺曼底人征服之后英国文化上所存在的深刻的阶级裂痕。 撒克逊农民种地养畜,自己出产的肉自己却吃不起,全都送上了诺曼底人的餐桌。农民们只能吃到在地里乱窜的兔子。兔子肉因为便宜,诺曼底贵族自然不屑去吃它。因此,活兔子和吃的兔子肉共用rabbit

马拉喀什见闻 一具尸体抬过,成群的苍蝇从饭馆的餐桌上瓮嗡嗡而起追逐过去,但几分钟过后又飞了回来。 一支人数不多的送葬队伍——其中老少尽皆男性,没有一个女的——沿着集贸市场,从一堆堆石榴摊子以及出租汽车和骆驼中间挤道而行,一边走着一边悲痛地重复着一支短促的哀歌。苍蝇之所以群起追逐是因为在这个地方死人的尸首从不装进棺木,只是用一块破布裹着放在一个草草做成的木头架子上,有四个朋友抬着送葬。朋友们到了安葬场后,便在地上挖出一个一二英尺深的长方形坑,将尸首往坑里一倒。再扔一些像碎砖头一样的日、干土块。不立墓碑,不留姓名,什么识别标志都没有。坟场只不过是一片土丘林立的荒野,恰似一片已废弃不用的建筑场地。一两个月过后,就谁也说不准自己的亲人葬于何处了。 当你穿行也这样的城镇——其居民20万中至少有2万是除开一身聊以蔽体的破衣烂衫之外完全一无所有——当你看到那些人是如何生活,又如何动辄死亡时,你永远难以相信自己是行走在人类之中。实际上,这是所有的殖民帝国赖以建立的基础。这里的人都有一张褐色的脸,而且,人数如此之多!他们真的和你意义同属人类吗?难道他们也会有名有姓吗?也许他们只是像彼此之间难以区分的蜜蜂或珊瑚虫一样的东西。他们从泥土里长出来,受哭受累,忍饥挨饿过上几年,然后有被埋在那一个个无名的小坟丘里。谁也不会注意到他们的离去。就是那些小坟丘本身也过不了很久便会变成平地。有时当你外出散步,穿过仙人掌丛时,你会感觉到地上有些绊脚的东西,只是在经过多次以后,摸清了其一般规律时,你才会知道你脚下踩的是死人的骷髅。 我正在公园里给一只瞪羚喂食。 动物中也恐怕只有瞪羚还活着时就让人觉得是美味佳肴。事实上,人们只要看到它们那两条后腿就会联想到薄荷酱。我现在喂着的这只瞪羚好象已经看透了我的心思。它虽然叼走了拿在手上的一块面包,但显然不喜欢我这个人。它一面啃食着面包,一面头一低向我顶过来,再啃一下面包又顶过来一次。它大概还因为把我赶开之后那块面包仍会悬在空中。 一个正在附近小道上干活的阿拉伯挖土工放下笨重的锄头,羞怯地侧着身子慢慢朝我们走过来。他把目光从瞪羚身上移向面包,又从面包转回到瞪羚身上,带着一点惊讶的神色,似乎以前从未见过这种情景。终于,他怯生生的用法语说道:“那面包让我吃一点吧。” 我撕下一块面包,他感激地把面包放进破衣裳贴身的地方。这人是市政当局的雇工。 当你走过这儿的犹太人聚居区时,你就会知道中世纪犹太人区大概是个什么样子。在摩尔人的统治下,犹太人只能在划定的一些地区内保有土地。受这样的待遇经过了好几个世纪后,他们已经不再为拥挤不堪而烦扰了。这儿很多街道的宽度远远不足六英尺,房屋根本没有窗户,眼睛红肿的孩子随处可见,多的像一群群苍蝇,数也数不清。街上往往是尿流成河。 在集市上,一大家一大家的犹太人,全都身着黑色长袍,头戴黑色便帽,在看起来像洞窟一般阴暗无光,苍蝇麋集的摊篷里干活。一个木匠两脚交叉坐在一架老掉牙的车床旁,正以飞快的速度旋制椅子腿。他右手握弓开动车床,左脚引动旋刀。由于长期保持着种姿势,

约翰的全部产业就在自己家里(他开办的玛格纳制造公司是设计、研制各种教育玩具和教育用品的。公司的一切往来函件、设计图纸和工艺模具全都放在一楼)。37岁的他对飓风的威力是深有体会的。四年前,他原先拥有的位于高尔夫港以西几英里外的那个家就曾毁于贝翠号飓风(那场风灾前夕柯夏克已将全家搬到一家汽车旅馆过夜)。不过,当时那幢房子所处的地势偏低,高出海平面仅几英尺。“我们现在住的这幢房子高了23英尺,,’他对父亲说,“而且距离海边足有250码远。这幢房子是1915年建造的。至今还从未受到过飓风的袭击。我们呆在这儿恐怕是再安全不过了。” 老柯夏克67岁.是个语粗心慈的熟练机械师。他对儿子的意见表示赞同。“我们是可以严加防卫。度过难关的,”他说?“一但发现危险信号,我们还可以赶在天黑之前撤出去。”为了对付这场飓风,几个男子汉有条不紊地做起准备工作来。自米水管道可能遭到破坏,他们把浴盆和提俑都盛满水。飓风也可能造成断电,所以他们检查r手提式收音机和手电筒里的电池以及提灯里的燃料油。约翰的父亲将一台小发电机搬到楼下门厅里.接上几个灯泡。并做好把发电机与电冰箱接通的准备。 那天下午,雨一直下个不停.乌云随着越来越猛的暴风从海湾上空席卷而来。全家早早地用r晚餐。邻居中一个丈夫去了越南的妇女跑过来。问她和她的两个孩子是否能搬进柯夏克家躲避风灾:另一个准备向内陆带转移的邻居也跑来问柯夏克家能否替他照看一下他的狗。 不到七点钟,天就黑了.,狂风暴雨拍打着屋子。约翰让大儿子和大女儿上楼去取来被褥和枕头给几个小一点的孩子。他想把全家人都集中在同一层楼上。“不要靠近窗户!”他警告说,担心在飓风巾震破的玻璃碎片会飞来伤人。风凶猛地咆哮起来?屋子开始漏雨了……那雨水好像能穿墙透壁,往屋里直灌。一家人都操起拖把、毛巾、盆罐和水桶,展l开了一场排水战。到八点半钟,电没有了。柯夏克老爹便启动了小发电机。 飓风的咆哮声压倒了一切。房子摇晃着,起居室的天花板一块块掉下来。楼上一个房问的法兰西式两用门砰地一声被风吹开了。楼下的人还听到楼上其他玻璃窗破碎时发出的劈劈啪啪的响声。积水已经漫到脚踝上了。 随后,前门开始从门框上脱落。约翰和查理用肩膀抵住¨,但一股水浪冲击过来。撞开了大门,把两人都掀倒在地板上。发电机泡在水里,电灯熄灭了。查理舔了舔嘴唇,对着约翰大喊道:“这回可真是大难临头了。这水是成的。”海水已经漫到屋子跟前?积水仍不断上涨。 “都从后门到汽车上去!”约翰提高嗓门大叫道。“我们把孩子2们一个个递过去,数一数!一共九个!” 孩子们从大人手上像救火队的水桶一样被递了过去。可是汽车不能发动了?它的点火系统被水泡坏了。水深风急。又不可能靠两只脚逃命。“回屋里去!.'约翰高声喊道。“数一数孩子们。一共九个!” 等他们爬着回到屋里后。约翰又命令道:“都到楼梯上去!,,于是大家都跑到靠两堵内墙保护的楼梯上歇着。个个吓得要命,气喘吁吁,浑身湿透。孩子们把取名为斯普琪的一只猫和一个装着四只小猫仔的盒子放在楼梯平台上。斯普琪心神不定地打量着自己的幼仔,邻人的那条狗已蜷起身子睡着了。 狂风就像在身边呼啸而过的列车一样发出震耳的响声,房屋在地基上晃动移位。一楼的外墙坍塌了,海水渐渐地漫上了楼梯。大家沉默无语?谁都明白现在已是无路可逃.死活都只好留在崖子里了。 查理。希尔对邻家的妇女和她那两个孩子多少尽了一点责任。那妇女简直吓昏了头。她紧紧地抓住他的胳膊连声叫道:“我不会游泳,我可不会游泳啊r “不会游泳也不要紧?”他强作镇定地安慰她道,..一会儿便什么都过去了。” 柯夏克老奶奶伸出胳臂挽住丈夫的肩膀。把嘴凑到他的耳边说,“老爷子,我爱你。”柯

高级英语II-2(中英) Marrakech马拉喀什见闻 George Orwell乔治,奥威尔 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 As the corpse went past the flies left the restaurant table in a cloud and rushed after it, but they came back a few minutes later. 一具尸体抬过,成群的苍蝇从饭馆的餐桌上嗡嗡而起追逐过去,但几分钟过后又飞了回来。 2 The little crowd of mourners -- all men and boys, no women--threaded their way across the market place between the piles of pomegranates and the taxis and the camels, walling a short chant over and over again. What really appeals to the flies is that the corpses here are never put into coffins, they are merely wrapped in a piece of rag and carried on a rough wooden bier on the shoulders of four friends. When the friends get to the burying-ground they hack an oblong hole a foot or two deep, dump the body in it and fling over it a little of the dried-up, lumpy earth, which is like broken brick. No gravestone, no name, no identifying mark of any kind. The burying-ground is merely a huge waste of hummocky earth, like a derelict building-lot. After a month or two no one can even be certain where his own relatives are buried. 一支人数不多的送葬队伍——其中老少尽皆男性,没有一个女的——沿着集贸市场,从一堆堆石榴摊子以及出租汽车和骆驼中间挤道而行,一边走着一边悲痛地重复着一支短促的哀歌。苍蝇之所以群起追逐是因为在这个地方死人的尸首从不装进棺木,只是用一块破布裹着放在一个草草做成的木头架子上,有四个朋友抬着送葬。朋友们到了安葬场后,便在地上挖出一个一二英尺深的长方形坑,将尸首往坑里一倒。再扔一些像碎砖头一样的干土块。不立墓碑,不留姓名,什么识别标志都没有。坟场只不过是一片土丘林立的荒野,恰似一片已废弃不用的建筑场地。一两个月过后,就谁也说不准自己的亲人葬于何处了。 3 When you walk through a town like this -- two hundred thousand inhabitants of whom at least twenty thousand own literally nothing except the rags they stand up in-- when you see how the people live, and still more how easily they die, it is always difficult to believe that you are walking among human beings. All colonial empires are in reality founded upon this fact. The people have brown faces--besides, there are so many of them! Are they really the same flesh as your self? Do they even have names? Or are they merely a kind of undifferentiated brown stuff, about as individual as bees or coral insects? They rise out of the earth,they sweat and starve for a few years, and then they sink back into the nameless mounds of the graveyard and nobody notices that they are gone. And even the graves themselves soon fade back into the soil. Sometimes, out for a walk as you break your way through the prickly pear, you notice that it is rather bumpy underfoot, and only a certain regularity in the bumps tells you that you are walking over skeletons. 当你穿行在这样的城镇——其居民20万中至少有2万是除开一身聊以蔽体的破衣烂衫之外完全一无所有——当你看到那些人是如何生活,又如何轻易地死去时,你永远难以相信自己是行走在人类之中。实际上,这是所有的殖民帝国赖以建立的基础。这里的人都有一张褐色的脸,而且,人数如此之多!他们真的和你一样同属人类吗?难道
