Across the street fro

2、m the church was a Pan American gas station where the Greyhound bus stopped. It was closed for Christmas, but I noticed a family standing outside the locked door, huddled under the narrow overhang in an attempt to keep dry. I wondered briefly why they were there but then forgot about them as I raced

3、 to keep up with Jill. Once we got home, there was barely time to enjoy our presents. We had to go off to our grandparents' house for our annual Christmas dinner. As we drove down the highway through town, I noticed that the family was still there, standing outside the closed gas station. My fat

4、her was driving very slowly down the highway. The closer we got to the turnoff for my grandparents' house, the slower the car went. Suddenly, my father U-turned in the middle of the road and said, "I can't stand it!" "What?" asked my mother. "It's those people ba

5、ck there at the Pan Am, standing in the rain. They've got children. It's Christmas. I can't stand it." When my father pulled into the service station, I saw that there were five of them: the parents and three children - two girls and a small boy. My father rolled down his window. &q

6、uot;Merry Christmas," he said. "Howdy," the man replied. He was very tall and had to stoop slightly to peer into the car. Jill, Sharon, and I stared at the children, and they stared back at us. "You waiting on the bus?" my father asked. The man said that they were. They were

7、 going to Birmingham, where he had a brother and prospects of a job. "Well, that bus isn't going to come along for several hours, and you're getting wet standing here. Winborn's just a couple miles up the road. They've got a shed with a cover there, and some benches," my fa

8、ther said. "Why don't y'all get in the car and I'll run you up there." The man thought about it for a moment, and then he beckoned to his family. They climbed into the car. They had no luggage, only the clothes they were wearing. Once they settled in, my father looked back over

9、 his shoulder and asked the children if Santa had found them yet. Three glum faces mutely gave him his answer. "Well, I didn't think so," my father said, winking at my mother, "because when I saw Santa this morning, he told me that he was having trouble finding all, and he asked m

10、e if he could leave your toys at my house. We'll just go get them before I take you to the bus stop." All at once, the three children's faces lit up, and they began to bounce around in the back seat, laughing and chattering. When we got out of the car at our house, the three children ra

11、n through the front door and straight to the toys that were spread out under our Christmas tree. One of the girls spied Jill's doll and immediately hugged it to her breast. I remember that the little boy grabbed Sharon's ball. And the other girl picked up something of mine. All this happened

12、 a long time ago, but the memory of it remains clear. That was the Christmas when my sisters and I learned the joy of making others happy. My mother noticed that the middle child was wearing a short-sleeved dress, so she gave the girl Jill's only sweater to wear. My father invited them to join u

13、s at our grandparents' for Christmas dinner, but the parents refused. Even when we all tried to talk them into coming, they were firm in their decision. Back in the car, on the way to Winborn, my father asked the man if he had money for bus fare. His brother had sent tickets, the man said. My fa

14、ther reached into his pocket and pulled out two dollars, which was all he had left until his next payday. He pressed the money into the man's hand. The man tried to give it back, but my father insisted. "It'll be late when you get to Birmingham, and these children will be hungry before

15、then. Take it. I've been broke before, and I know what it's like when you can't feed your family." We left them there at the bus stop in Winborn. As we drove away, I watched out the window as long as I could, looking back at the little gihugging her new doll. 天上下着毛毛细雨，我和姐姐吉尔跑出卫理公会教堂

16、，满心只想着快点回到家玩圣诞老人给我们和小妹妹莎伦打算的礼物玩具。教堂的对面是泛美油站，灰狗长途汽车会在那里中途停站。因为是圣诞节，那天油站没开，不过我发觉在紧锁的站门外站着一家人，他们挤在狭小的檐篷下，想尽量不被雨淋湿。我闪过一个疑问，他们为什么站在那里呢?但在我赶上吉尔的时候也就把这个疑团抛诸脑后了。 回到家后其实根本没时间让我们尽情把玩礼物，因为我们立刻又得去爷爷奶奶家共进一年一度的圣诞大餐。在开车经过刚才那条大路时，我看到那一家人仍旧站在紧闭的油站门外。 在那主干道上爸爸的车开得很慢。越接近去爷爷奶奶家的分岔路口，车子就越慢。突然，爸爸在半路中途来了个180度转弯，把车子原路驶回，他说

17、："我实在不忍心! "什么?"妈妈问他。 "那几个在雨中站在泛美油站外的人。他们还带着小孩呢。圣诞节当前，我真的不忍心啊。" 爸爸把车开到油站旁停下，我望见那一家总共有5个人：父母俩和三个孩子-两个女孩跟一个小男孩。 爸爸摇下车窗对他们说："圣诞欢乐!" "你好，"那个男人回了一句。他长得很高，要略微弯下腰来往我们车里瞧。我和吉尔、莎伦盯着那几个小孩，他们也瞪眼看着我们。 "你们在等汽车吗?"爸爸问他们。 男人回答说是，他们打算去伯明翰，他有个哥哥在那边，而且期望能谋到一份工作。 &q

18、uot;汽车至少要好几个小时后才到这里，站在这儿等车你们都会淋湿的。往前几英里就是温邦站，那儿有个棚屋，有地方避雨，还有些凳子。不如上车我送你们到那里吧。" 男人想了一下然后示意他家人过来。他们钻进车里，除了身上穿着的衣服，他们没有任何行李。 等他们坐好了，爸爸转过头来问那几个孩子，圣诞老人找到他们没有。三张愁闷的脸无声地回答了他。 "我看不是吧，"爸爸边说边向妈妈挤眼示意，"早上我遇到圣诞老人了，他说找不到你们，想把给你们的礼物短暂放到我们家里来。现在咱们就去拿礼物吧，待会儿我再送你们去车站。 三个孩子的脸忽然阴霾尽散，还在后排座位蹦蹦跳跳，笑笑嚷嚷起

19、来。 到了我家一下车，那三个孩子穿过大门就直奔摆在圣诞树下的礼物。其中一个小女孩发觉了吉尔的洋娃娃礼物，立刻把它抱入怀中。我记得那小男孩抓走了莎伦的小球，而另外一个女孩就挑走了一件我的东西。这些都是很久很久以前的事了，然而回忆起来还是那么清楚，因为在那个圣诞日我和我的姐妹领悟到了让别人欢乐而获得的愉悦。 妈妈看到他们家老二穿着的裙子是短袖的，便把吉尔仅有的毛衣给了她穿。 爸爸邀请他们一起去爷爷奶奶家吃圣诞大餐，但他们两夫妇拒绝了。就算怎么游说，他们还是坚拒了我们的好意。 回到车里在去温邦的路上爸爸问那男人有没有钱买车票。 他说哥哥寄了车票来。 爸爸从口袋里掏出仅有的两美元，原来是我们要熬到下次

20、发工资的，他却把这钱塞到了男人的手里。男人想把钱推回来，但爸爸硬要他收下。"等你们到伯明翰就已经很晚了，路上孩子们会饿的。收下吧，我以前也曾一贫如洗，让家人挨饿的味道不好受，我知道的。" 把他们送到温邦的车站后，我们就开车离开了。我从车窗回望良久，凝视着那小女孩拥着她的新洋娃娃。 英语散文篇二 海上日出 Sunrise at Sea 巴金 Ba Jin 为了看日出，我经常早起。那时天还没有大亮，四周特别清静，船上只有机器的响声。 I would often get up early to watch the sunrise when it was not yet quite

21、 light and all was quiet except for the droning of the ship engine. 要点： 本段重点在于合译，译者增用 了when, and, except for几个连接词 ，把汉语表达的意思串联了起来,表达的逻辑之美由此而生 。 天空还是一片浅蓝，颜色很浅。转瞬间天涯出现了一道红霞，渐渐地在扩大它的范围，加强它的亮光。我知道太阳要从天涯升起来了，便不转瞬地望着那里。 The sky was pale with a bluish hue. Soon a streak of pink dawn broke over the horizon，e

22、xpanding gradually and becoming brighter and brighter. Knowing that the sun was about to rise, I had my eyes fixed on the distant edge of the sea. 要点： 1，“还没有大亮”=be not quite light，在看月中，有个“没有断黑”= is not yet quite dark，“大亮”“断黑”都是程度副词+形容词的结构，通常用quiet+adj结构 2，“机器的响声”译为the droning of the ship engine.。“机器

23、”这里指轮船上的steam engine,即蒸汽发动机，不宜译为macine.另外“响声”译为droning,表示机器的单调低沉的嗡嗡响声，较单纯的sound更有形象感 3，“浅蓝”=bluish，意为“带点蓝的，浅蓝色的”， -ish这个后缀表示”带性质的，稍的“，在离别和杜鹃中，我们也见到过此类构词法，这类表示颜色的词大家要留意，因为文学作品中出于细微环节刻画的须要，会将颜色描写得非常详细，翻译时也要注意选词的精确和美感哦 4，“天涯”是指海天交接之处，即“地平线”，译为the horizon，之后的“那里”文中处理为the distant edge of the sea,避开了重复 5，

24、“一道红霞”也可译为a streak of rosy dawn或a rosy streak of dawn 综述： 果真过了一会儿，在那个地方出现了太阳的小半边脸，红是真红，却没有亮光。这个太阳似乎负着重荷似的一步一步、渐渐地努力上升，到了最终，最终冲破了云霞，完全跳出了海面，颜色红得特别可爱。一刹那间，这个深红的圆东西，突然发出了夺目的亮光，射得人眼睛发痛，它旁边的云片也突然有了光彩。 As expected, the sun soon appeared revealing half of its face, which was very red but not bright. It kep

25、t rising laboriously bit by bit as if weighted down with a heavy burden on its back until，after breaking through the rosy clouds ;it completely emerged from the sea aglow with a lovely red. Then，before I knew it, the dark red orb began to shine blazingly, dazzling my eyes until they stung and all of

26、 a sudden lighting up the surrounding cloud. 要点： 1，“这个太阳似乎负着重荷似的一步一步、渐渐地努力上升”译为It kept rising laboriously bit by bit as if weighted down with a heavy burden on its back其中laboriously 包含“渐渐地”和“努力”两重意义，它还是 一个多音节词 ，有意 地延 长 阅读 的时间 ， 让 读者在 阅读 中真实 地感 受 日出的缓 慢过程，本句用了拟人手法，而译文的laboriously，weighted down with等词

27、，也很好地表现了原文的修辞意 2，“一刹那间，这个深红的圆东西”译为before I knew it, the dark red orb，其中before I know it (或before I know where I was,before I was aware of it)在此意为“一刹那间”,此处译者并没有译为in the twinkling of an eye,或者soon 3，“圆东西”译为orb，较round thing更加形象 4，“颜色红得特别可爱”即“发出可爱的红光”译为be aglow with a lovely red,aglow意为“发亮的，发红的” 5，”射得人眼

28、睛发痛“译为dazzling my eyes until they stung,其中until在此意为”以至于” 6,” 它旁边的云片也突然有了光彩”为了避开再起一句，译者转换了主语与前句进行了合译，原文中几个小分句都围围着“ 深红的圆东西” 这个 中心点，因此在翻译时，把 它作为主语 ， 再运用 两个并 列 的现在 分词短语 把 语 意融 合 在一 起 ，结 构紧凑 、 意思连贯 ， 同时也符合 英语 “ 头轻 尾重 ” 的表达习惯 综述： 本文最突出的特点就是拟人手法的运用，一般翻译时会通过动词，副词，从句的运用，尽量将其“拟人”的意思译出来另外，留意本段人性化动词的敏捷运用，例如“跳出”

29、译为emerged from 有时太阳走进了云堆中，它的光线却从云里射下来，直射到水面上。这时候要辨别出哪里是水，哪里是天，倒也不简单，因为我就只望见一片绚丽的亮光。 Sometimes，hidden by the clouds, the sun nonetheless shed its rays straight onto the sea water, making it difficult for me to distinguish between the sky and the sea because what I saw in front of me was nothing but a

30、 wide expanse of brilliant light. 要点： 1，“有时太阳走进了云堆中”此处译者为了与下文照应，采纳了主动转被动的手法此句也可以理解为以“太阳”为主语的多动词句，“射出光线”为主要动词，“走进云堆”是次要动词，译为过去分词形式，至于句首 2，”射到水面上“译为shed rays onto the sea，其中shed 此处意为”洒“ 3，此句 译 文 中有 3处 使 用 了 头 韵 ： sun/ shed / straight /seawater 、 difficult和distinguish、 s k y 和 s e a 。体现了散文的美感，读起来也是朗朗上口

31、滴 4，the sun nonetheless shed its rays straight onto the sea water中 ， 将 原 文 “ 光线从云里射 下来 ”“ 直射到水面上 ” 两个动作合译，读起来一挥而就，流畅自然后面干脆用making连接两个句子，也体现了原文的简洁 有时天涯有黑云，而且云片很厚，太阳出来，人眼还看不见。然而太阳在黑云里放射的光线，透过黑云的重围，替黑云镶了一道发光的金边。后来太阳才渐渐地冲出重围，出现在天空，甚至把黑云也染成了紫色或者红色。这时候发亮的不仅是太阳、云和海水，连我自己也成了光明的了。这不是很宏大的奇观么? Sometimes, with

32、thick layers of dark clouds hanging in the sky, the sun was hardly visible to the naked eye. But its radiance managed to show through the dark clouds to edge them with golden lace. Then, after gradually breaking through the tight encirclement, it came into full view and even dyed the dark clouds pur

33、ple or scarlet. At the moment, apart from the sun，the clouds and the seawater, I too was luminous.Wasn't that a marvelous spectacle? 要点： 1，“太阳出来人眼还看不见” 非 人称 主语 使 折射 一 定 生 命 内涵 的动 词 被 “ 挪 用 ”于不具 生命 的主语 ， 这样 的句 式 就 自然 而然 地 抹 上了拟人色调。译为“ t h e s u n w a s h a r d l y v i s i b l e t o t h e n a k e

34、d e y e ” ， 符合英语行文。而且 ， 把太阳赋与人性 ，以非人称主语替代人称主语 ， 表达顿趋简洁 ， 而且显 得生动活泼 2，“透过黑云”此处译为managed to show through the dark clouds，用penetrate也可以，从上文的emerge到这里的manage to do，译者运用大量人性化的动词，将原文的“拟人化”的手法表现得淋漓尽致 3，scarlet(绯红，猩红)，本段乃至全文对于颜色的描写都特别细致，值得借鉴和总结 4，“这时候发亮的不仅是太阳、云和海水，连我自己也成了光明的了。”译为At the moment, apart from th

35、e sun，the clouds and the seawater, I too was luminous. 是作者借景抒情，不知不觉地融入到自然环境当中 ，情和景 在此刻完全交融在一起了。” 译者刻意调整句子重心，将这种 递进关系传神地传达给了读者 ，主次分明，突出此时此“ 我 ” 的融情于景 。 英语散文篇三 To write or not to write 拿起笔还是放下 Writing is not easy. I do it everyday. 写作特别不简单。我每天都在写作。 And I can tell you, its quite a challenge. 我可以告知你，这是一

36、个相当大的挑战。 But, the more I do it, the easier I get to just write. 但是，我写作的越多，我就越会简单的感觉下笔如有神。 Sometimes, thats the most difficult part starting. 有时候，最困难的部分是起先。 When people ask me about writing-how they can write-I often suggest they brainstorm first. 当人们问我关于写作他们如何写作我通常建议他们先作头脑风暴。 Writing the main ideas
