篇一
T: Hi, Kerry. What are you reading?
T:嗨,凱瑞。你在讀什麼呢?
K: Oh, these are just some books I picked up at a local poetry festival that took place a couple of weeks ago. It was nice to see that there are so many people who appreciate poetry here.
K:哦,這是我在幾固前的詩歌節上買的書。真高興看到這兒有這麼多人都喜歡詩歌。
T: I didn't know you were such a poetry lover, Kerry. Personally, I've always found that stuff a little bit boring and hard to understand. All that flowery language gives me a headache! I'd rather read a nice long novel any day.
T:凱瑞,我還不知道你是個詩歌迷呢。就我個人而言,我總覺得詩歌枯燥無味,晦 澀難懂。花哨的詞藻讓我頭疼!還不如哪天讀本有意思的長篇小說呢。
K: I'll admit that poetry's an acquired taste. But once you learn more about it, you'll find that poems aren't all flowery and incomprehensible they don't even have to rhyme!
K:我承認欣賞詩歌需要慢慢品味。不過,如果你多接 觸詩歌,就會發現詩歌並不都是花哨、難懂的,它們 甚至都不需要押韻!
T: Fine, but if there is no rhyme in a poetry, I'm wondering whether we can call it poetry.
T:好吧。不過如果一首詩連韻腳都沒有,那還能叫詩嗎?
K: Next time I'll find you some belonging to that category. I'm sure you'll be enchanted by the words.
K:下次我給你找一些這樣的詩。你肯定會被它的詞句 迷住的。
T: Ok. Why do you love poetry so much?
T:好的。你為什麼這麼喜歡詩歌啊?
K: The words, the feelings in it.. .Besides, I think they often provide us with the essence of life.
K:嗯,它的語言,它結人的感覺……此外,我覺得詩歌 總是向我們展示生命的真諦。
T: Great. Which is your favorite poet?
T:太棒了。那麼你最喜歡的詩人是誰?
K: One of my favorite poets is Sylvia Plath, who is a confessional poet. Have you ever read her poetry?
K:我最喜歡的詩人之一是西爾維亞普拉斯。她是自白派詩人。你讀過她的詩嗎?
T: I'm not sure. The name sounds familiar to me. Perhaps the high school America literature teacher ever introduced her to us. But to tell you the truth, most of the names of the poets have just slipped from my memory.
T:也許吧。這個名字聽起來很耳熟。或許高中美國文學的老師曾經向我們介紹過如1。 但跟你說句實話,我都不記得幾個詩人的名字了。
K: Understandable. Her fame is not so great as those of other top American poets.
K:這也可以理解。她並不像美國頂尖的詩人那麼有名。
T: Wait. Is she the one who killed herself in her thirties by turning on the gas?
T:等等,她是不是那個在30歲開煤氣自盡的詩人?
K: You are right. That's a tragedy. She must have been heart-broken and felt hopeless then.
K:對。那真是個悲劇。她那個時候肯定是傷心絕望至極。
T: Why? Because of her unhappy marriage?
T:為什麼呢?家庭生活不幸福嗎? '
K: Yes, this is the most important reason. She suffered from depression when she was a junior student in college. Plath was briefly committed to a mental institution where she received electroconvulsive therapy.
K:對,這是主要原因。她在大三的時候就曾經得過抑鬱症,嘗試自殺未遂。曾被送 進精神病院進行治療,進行電休克治療。
T: She must have spent a miserable time there.
T:她那段時間一定特別難熬。
K: Yes, then Plath seemed to make an acceptable recovery and graduated from Smith with honors. Then she obtained a Fulbright scholarship to Cambridge where she met Ted Hughes.
K:是啊。她似乎康復得還不錯,之後順利從史密斯學院畢業,並獲得富布賴特獎學 金到劍橋大學深造。在那裡她遇到了當時在詩壇小有名氣的泰德休斯。
T: Wow, she was a lucky girl.
T:哇,她真幸運。
K: Not at all. Plath's marriage to Hughes was fraught with difficulties, particularly surrounding his affair with Assia Wevill, the wife of one colleague, Plath's mental problem became more severe after that.
K: 一點也不。後來普拉斯和休斯的婚姻因為休斯和同事的妻子阿西亞發生婚外情而 愈加困難重重,普拉斯的精神疾病也因為休斯的婚外情而加重。
T: Gosh, what happened next?
T:天啊,他們後來怎麼樣了呢?
K: Finally, the couple separated in late 1962. In 1963,Plath killed herself by turning the gas on. She was then only 30 years old.
K:終幹,1962年底他們分手了。1963年,她在廚房裡開煤氣自盡,車僅30歲。
T: What a tragedy! She was a poor woman.
T:太悲劇了。她真是個可憐的女人。
K: There is a film named Sylvia telling us the life story of her, especially the love story between she and the later England's Poet Laureate Ted Hughes . If you are interested, you can go and have a look. I’m sure that you will have a further understanding of her and her poetry.
K:有個電影就叫做《西爾維亞》,講述了西爾維亞的一生,尤其是她和後來成為英 國桂冠詩人的泰德休斯的愛情故事。如果你感興趣的話,可以找來看看。你肯 定會對她和她的詩有進一步的瞭解。
T: Who is the leading actress?
T:誰是女主演?
K: Gwyneth Paltrow. And Daniel Craig is the leading actor.
K:格溫妮絲帕特洛。男主演是丹尼爾克雷格。
T: I have to watch it. Say, have you ever written any poetry of your own? Some love sonnets, perhaps?
T:我一定得看看這部電影。你自己寫過詩沒有?比如說關於愛情的十四行話?
K: No love sonnets, but I did try to write some poems a long time ago. They were all really bad. Once I spent three hours trying to come up with a word that rhymes with “panda”!
K:沒寫過這個。但很久以前我的確嘗試過寫諳,只是寫得很糟糕。我曾經花了 3 個小時來想可以和"panda”押韻的詞!
T: Silly Kerry! How could you not think of “Sylvia”?
T:蓋瑞你真笨,你怎麼沒想到"Sylvia"?
篇二
J: There are so many time-honored buildings in Trinity College and I guess that’s one of the reasons that they call Trinity College the most aristocratic college in College.
J:三一學院有很多歷史悠久的建築,我猜這就是他們為什麼認為三一學院是劍橋大學最具貴族氣質的學院的原因之一。
L: And Trinity College is also famous for its Great Court. It’s the main court of Trinity College and reputed to be the largest enclosed court in Europe.
L:三一學院還以它的巨大庭院出名。那是三一學院的主要庭院,據說是歐洲最大的 封閉式庭園。
J: We are walking on the Great Court now. It feels really good.
J:我們現在就走在巨庭的道路上,感覺真好。
L: Yeah. The court was completed by Thomas Nevile, master of the college, in the early years of the 17th century, when he rearranged the existing buildings to form a single court.
L:是啊。這個庭院是在17世紀早期,在時任學院院長的托馬斯納維爾的指導下建 成的,他重新規劃了已有的建築,構建了一個單獨的庭院。
J: And there is a great competition in the The Great Court. Do you know?
J:有一個重大的比賽在巨庭舉行,你知道嗎?
L: Of course I know. It’s The Great Court Run. It’s an attempt to run round the perimeter of Great Court ***approximately 367 metres***, in the 43-45 seconds during the clock striking twelve.
L:我當然知道了,是巨庭賽跔,在學院大 鐘敲12下的43 ~ 45秒內***正午和午夜,大鐘都要敲12下***,沿著巨庭跔一圈***大 概367米***。
J: Students of Cambridge like to challenge themselves by taking part in it. They traditionally attempt to complete the circuit on the day of the Matriculation Dinner.
J:劍橋大學的學生都想參加這個比賽,挑戰自我。他們通常在舉行入學晚宴當天會 嘗試跑完一圈。
L: It’s a rather difficult challenge: one needs to be a fine sprinter to achieve it.
L:這個挑戰相當困難,只有優秀的短跑選手才能完成比賽。
J: But it is by no means necessary to be of Olympic standard, despite assertions made in the press.
J:雖然媒體聲稱這是個艱難的挑戰,但是選手並不需要具備參加奧運會的水平。
L: David Burghley, who in 1927 first beat the clock, running the course in 43.1 seconds, went on to win gold in the 400-metre hurdles at the 1928 Olympic Games.
L:大衛伯利1927年用了 43.1秒跔完全程,首次"擊敗了°大鐘。隨後他在1928 車的奧運會中奪得了 400米欄的冠軍。
J: Sebastian Coe, another gold medalist and chairman of the organizing committee for 2012 London Olympics, is generally accepted as the second person to have completed the race.
J:另一位金牌得主,2012年倫敦奧運會組委會主席塞巴斯蒂安科被人們認為是完 成該項比賽的第二個人。
L: Yes. Sebastian Coe successfully completed the run when he beat Steve Cram in a charity race in October 1988.
L:是的。在1988年10月的一個慈善賽跔中,塞巴斯蒂安科擊敗了史蒂夫克拉姆, 成功跔完了全程。
J; Coe’s time on 29th October 1988 was reported to have been 45.52 seconds, but it was actually 46.0 seconds ***confirmed by the video tape***, while Cram’s was 46.3 seconds.
J:他在1988年10月29號跑完全程的時間據報道是45.52秒,但實際上是46.0秒***錄 像帶證實***,而克拉姆的成績是46.3秒。
L: The clock on that day took 44.4 seconds and the video film confirmed that Coe was some 12 metres short of his finish line when the fateful final stroke occurred.
L:那天的大鐘敲完12下用了 44.4秒。紀錄片證實,當決定命運的最後一下敲響時, 他離終點大概還有12米遠呢。
J: The television commentators were more than a little disingenuous in suggesting that the dying sounds of the bell could be included in the striking time, thereby allowing Coe’s run to be claimed as successful.
J:電視評論員很不真誠地點評到,大鐘最後的聲響延續的時間應該被算到敲鐘時間 內,所以他的賽跑桃戰被認為是成功的。
L: One reason Olympic runners Cram and Coe found the challenge so tough is that they started at the middle of one side of the Court, thereby having four right-angle turns.
L:奧運會選手科和克拉姆之所以認為這個挑戰很難的原因之一是因為他們分別在巨 庭兩側道路的中心起跑,所以要經歷4個直角轉彎。
J: But in the days when students started at the corner, only three turns were needed.
J:但到了學生們可以在巨庭轉角處起跑的時代時,他們只需經歷3個直角轉彎。
L: Until the mid 1990s, the run was traditionally attempted by first year students, at midnight following their Matriculation Dinner,
L:直到20世紀90年代中期,這個跑步比賽傳統上仍是由大一學生參加,校方在入 學晚宴當天的午夜就舉行比賽。
J: Following a number of accidents of drunken undergraduates running on slippery cobbles, the college now organizes a more formal Great Court Run, at 12 noon* The challenge is only open to fresher, many of whom compete in fancy dress.
J:但是有些本科生喝醉後,經常跔到光滑的鵝卵石上,在許多這樣的事件發生後, 現在三一學院決定在正午12點組織一個比較正式的巨庭賽跔。這項活動只允許 大一新生參加,他們當中很多人穿著奮裝異服來參加比賽。
