1、征服英语八级新题型翻译练习1燕子去了,有再来的时候;杨柳枯了,有再青的时候;桃花谢了,有再开的时候。但是,聪明的,你告诉我,我们的日子为什么一去不复返呢?是有人偷了他们罢:那是谁?又藏在何处呢?是他们自己逃走了罢:现在又到了哪里呢?我不知道他们给了我多少日子;但我的手确乎是渐渐空虚了。在默默里算着,八千多个日子已经从我手中溜去;像针尖上一滴水滴在大海里,我的日子滴在时间的流水里,没有声音,也没有影子。我不禁头涔涔而泪潸潸了。 (朱自清匆匆 )2In your reading you must have some definite aimsome aim other than the wish
2、to derive pleasure. I conceive that to give pleasure is the highest end of any work of art, because the pleasure procured from any art is tonic, and transforms the life into which it enters. But the maximum of pleasure can only be obtained by regular effort, and regular effort implies the organizati
3、on of that effort. Open-air walking is a glorious exercise; it is the walking itself which is glorious. Nevertheless, when setting out for walking exercise, the same man generally has a subsidiary aim in view. He says to himself either that he will reach a given point, or that he will progress at a
4、given speed for a given distance, or that he will remain on his feet for a given time The same with reading. Your paramount aim in pouring over literature is to enjoy, but you will not fully achieve that aim unless you have also a subsidiary aim which necessitates the measurement of your energy.3小巷的
5、动人之处就是它无比的悠闲。无论谁,只要你到巷里去踯躅一会,你的心情就会如巷尾不波的古井,那是一种和平的静穆,而不是阴森和肃杀。它闹中取静,别有天地,仍是人间。它可能是一条现代的乌衣巷,家家有自己的一本哀乐帐,一部兴衰史,可是重门叠户,讳莫如深,夕阳影里,野花闲草,燕子低飞,寻觅归家。只是一片澄明如水的气氛,净化一切,笼罩一切,使人忘忧。4Well-written history must always be the result of genius and taste, as well as of research and study. It stands next to epic poetr
6、y, among the productions of human mind. If it requires less of invention than that, it is not behind it in dignity and importance. The province of the epic is the poetical narrative of real or supposed events, and the representation of real, or at least natural, characters; and history, in its noble
7、st examples, is an account of occurrences in which great events are commemorated, and distinguished men appear as agents and actors. Epic poetry and the drama are but narratives, the former partly and the latter wholly, in the form of a dialogue, but their characters and personages are usually, in p
8、art at least, the creations of imagination.5得病以前,我受父母宠爱,在家中横行霸道。一旦隔离,拘禁在花园山坡上一幢小房子里,我顿感打入冷宫,十分郁郁不得志起来。一个春天的傍晚,园中百花齐放,父母在园中设宴,一时宾客云集,笑语四溢。我在山坡的小屋里,悄悄掀起窗帘,窥见园中大千世界,一片繁华,自己的哥姐,堂表兄弟,也穿插其间,个个喜气洋洋,一霎时,一阵被人摈弃,为世所遗的悲愤兜上心头,禁不住痛哭起来。6In the classical novel, “The Pioneers”, James Fenimore Cooper has his hero, a
9、 land developer, take his cousin on a tour of city he is building. He describes the broad streets, rows of houses, a teeming metropolis. But his cousin looks around bewildered. All she sees is a forest. “Where are the beauties and improvements which you were to show me?” she asks. Hes astonished she
10、 cant see them. “Where! Why, everywhere,” he replies. For though they are not yet built on earth, he has built them in his mind, and they are as concrete to him as if they were already constructed and finished.Cooper was illustrating a distinctly American trait, future-mindedness: the ability to see
11、 the present from the vantage point of the future; the freedom to feel unencumbered by the past and more emotionally attached to things to come. As Albert Einstein once said, “Life for the American is already becoming never being.”7在人际关系问题上我们不要太浪漫主义。人是很有趣的,往往在接触一个人时首先看到的都是他或她的优点。这一点颇像是在餐馆里用餐的经验。开头吃头
12、盘或冷碟的时候,印象很好。吃头两个菜时,也是赞不绝口。愈吃愈趋于冷静,吃完了这顿宴席,缺点都找出来了。于是转喜为怒,转赞美为责备挑剔,转首肯为摇头。这是因为:第一,开始吃的时候你正处于饥饿状态,而饿了吃糠甜如蜜,饱了吃蜜也不甜。第二,你初到一个餐馆,开始举筷时有新鲜感,新盖的茅屋三天香,这也可以叫做“陌生化效应”吧。8For me the most interesting thing about solitary life, and mine has been that for the last twenty years, is that it becomes increasingly rew
13、arding. When I can wake up and watch the sun rise over the ocean, as it does most days, and know that I have an entire day ahead, uninterrupted, in which to write a few pages, take a walk with my dog, read and listen to music, I am flooded with happiness.I am lonely, only when I am overtired, when I
14、 have worked too long without a break, when for the time being I feel empty and need filling up. And I am lonely sometimes when I come back home after a lecture trip, when I have seen a lot of people and talked a lot, and am full to brim with experience that needs to be sorted out.Then for a little
15、while the house feels huge and empty, and I wonder where my self is hiding. It has to be recaptured slowly by watering the plants and, perhaps, by looking again at each one as though it were a person.It takes a while, as I watch the surf blowing up in fountains, but the moment comes when the world falls away, and the self emerges again from the deep unconscious, bringing back all I have recently experienced to be explored and slowly understood.9大自然对人的恩赐,无论贫富
