簡單英語短片美文篇一
簡·愛I have as much soul as you
"I tell you I must go!" I retorted, roused to something like passion. "Do you think I can stay to become nothing to you? Do you think I am an automaton?--a machine without feelings? and can bear to have my morsel of bread snatched from my lips, and my drop of living water dashed from my cup? Do you think, because I am poor, obscure, plain, and little, I am soulless and heartless? You think wrong!--I have as much soul as you,--and full as much heart! And if God had gifted me with some beauty and much wealth, I should have made it as hard for you to leave me, as it is now for me to leave you. I am not talking to you now through the medium of custom, conventionalities, nor even of mortal flesh;--it is my spirit that addresses your spirit; just as if both has passed through the grave, and we stood at God's feet, equal,--as we are!"
“我告訴你我非走不可!”我回駁著,感情很有些衝動。“你難道認為,我會留下來甘願做一個對你來說無足輕重的人?你以為我是一架機器——一架沒有感情的機器?能夠容忍別人把一口麵包從我嘴裡搶走,把一滴生命之水從我杯子裡潑掉?難道就因為我一貧如洗、默默無聞、長相平庸、個子瘦小,就沒有靈魂和心腸了?你想錯了!我的心靈跟你一樣豐富,我的心胸跟你一樣充實!要是上帝賜予我一點姿色和財富,我會使你難以離開我,就像現在我很難離開你一樣。我不是根據習俗、常規,甚至也不是血肉之軀同你說話,而是我的靈魂同你的靈魂在對話,就彷彿我們兩人穿過墳墓,站在上帝腳下,彼此平等,本來就如此!”

陌生者之心Heart of a stranger
The most loved place, for me, in this country has in fact been many places. It has changed throughout the years, as I and my circumstances have changed. I haven't really lost any of the best places from the past, though. I may no longer inhabit them, but they inhabit me, portions of memory, presences in the mind...My best place at the moment is very different, although I guess it has some of the attributes of that long-ago place. It is a small cedar cabin on the Otonabee river in southern Ontario. I've lived three summers there, writing, birdwatching, riverwatching. I sometimes feel sorry for the people in speedboats who spend their weekends zinging up and down the river at about a million miles an hour. For all they're able to see, the riverbanks might just as well be green concrete and the river itself flowing with molten plastic.
在這個國家裡我最喜歡的地方其實一直有很多。這些年來,由於我們自己和情況的變遷,我最愛的地方也隨著改變。雖然如此,過去我喜愛過的任何一個地方我並沒有真正地失去它們。我或許不再居住在那兒,但它們卻存在於我的心裡,成為我記憶中的片段,時常浮現在腦海中……此刻我最喜愛的地方相當不同,但我想它仍具有和老早的那個地方***即明湖,Clear Lake***相同的某些特質。這個地方是安大略省南方奧托拿比河邊的一間松木小屋。我在那兒居住了三個夏天:寫作、賞鳥、觀河。有時候我為那些來此地度週末,卻駕著快艇以極速在河上往來呼嘯的人感到難過,因為這些人看見的河岸只不過是綠色的混凝土岸,而河流本身也彷彿只是條閃亮的流動塑料。

遠大前程Great expectation
As the night was fast falling, and as the moon, being past the full, would not rise early,we held a little council: a short one, for clearly our course was to lie by at the first lonely tavern we could find. So, they plied their oars once more, and I looked out for anything like a house. Thus we held on, speaking little, for four or five dull miles. It was very cold, and, a collier coming by us, with her gallery-fire smoking and flaring, looked like a comfortable home. The night was as dark by this time as it would be until morning; and what light we had, seemed to come more from the river than the sky, as the oars in their dipping stuck at a few reflected stars.
天黑得很快,偏巧這天又是下弦月,月亮不會很早升起。我們就稍稍商量了一下,可是也用不著多討論,因為情況是明擺著的,再劃下去我們一遇到冷落的酒店就得投宿。於是他們又使勁打起槳來,我則用心尋找岸上是否隱隱約約有什麼房屋的模樣。這樣又趕了四五英里路,一路上好不氣悶,大家簡直不說一句話。天氣非常冷,一艘煤船從我們近旁駛過,船上廚房裡生著火,炊煙縷縷,火光熒熒,在我們看來簡直就是個安樂家了。這時夜已透黑,看來就要這樣一直黑到天明,我們僅有的一點光亮似乎不是來自天空,而是來自河上,一漿又一漿的,攪動著那寥寥幾顆倒映在水裡的寒星。
