㈤ 大学英语精读预备级第三版第二单元课文翻译a father,a son an answer
一天早晨去亚特兰大机场,我看见一辆列车载载着旅客从航空集散站抵达登记处。这类免费列车每天单调、无味地往返其间,没人觉得有趣。但这个周六我却听到了笑声。
在头节车厢的最前面,坐着一个男人和他的儿子。他们正透过窗户观赏着一直往前延伸的铁道。
我们停下来等候旅客下车,之后,车门关上了。“走吧。拉紧我!”父亲说。儿子大约5岁吧,一路喜不自禁。
车上坐的多半是衣冠楚楚,或公差或度假的白人,只有这对黑人父子穿着朴素简单。我知道如今我们不该种族歧视,我希望我这样描述没人介意。
“快看!”父亲对儿子说:“看见那位飞行员了吗?我敢肯定是去开飞机的。”儿子伸长脖子看。
下了车后我突然想起还得在航空集散站买点东西。离起飞时间还早,于是我决定再乘车回去。
正准备上车的时候,我看到那对父子也来了。我意识到他们不是来乘飞机的,而是特意来坐区间列车的。
“我还想再坐一会儿!”“再坐一会儿!”父亲嗔怪模仿着儿子的语调,“你还不累?”“真好玩!”儿子说。“好吧,”父亲说。车门开了,我们都上了车。
我们很多父母有能力送孩子去欧洲,去狄斯尼乐园,可孩子还是堕落了。很多父母住豪华别墅,孩子有车有游泳池,可孩子还是学坏了。富人、穷人,黑人、白人,那么多人都轻易学坏了。
“爸爸,这些人去哪?”儿子问。“世界各地。”父亲回答。机场来来往往的人流或准备远行,或刚刚归来。这对父子却在乘坐区间列车,享受着父子间的亲情与陪伴。
这个国家有很多麻烦——犯罪、许多年轻人的生活似乎缺少目标、教育水准的降低、粗话的增多、普通礼仪的消失。我们有很多问题,不知道该怎么办。而这里有一位父亲重视与儿子共度时光,并在这样一个星期六的早上,想出了这样一个与儿子共乘区间车的计划。
其实答案很简单:父母愿意花时间,愿意关注,愿意尽心尽职。这不要花一分钱,可这却是世间无价之宝。
火车加速了。父亲指着窗外说着什么,儿子直乐。是的,答案就是这么简单。

When Chichester set out on the greatest voyage of his life, he was nearly sixty-five years old. What’s more, he had lung cancer. When he finished the first half of his voyage and arrived in Australia, he could not even walk on shore without help. His friends attempted to dissuade him from continuing the adventure, but he didn’t listen. Instead he set sail again to conquer the treacherous Cape Horn. Clipper ship had sailed round Cape Horn in the nineteenth century, but they had plenty of able-bodied men aboard. In contrast, Chichester was all alone and had to cope with every danger all single-handed. At times the sea became so rough that it took all his strength to stop his boat from turning over. Imagine the fear he experienced when the main steering device on Gypsy Moth was damaged by gales. A man without his courage and determination would certainly have been drowned by the sea.

㈩ 大学英语精读第三册第二单元的课文简述
一个年轻人发现,漫无目的地在街上闲逛也会带来涉及法律问题的麻烦。一种误解导致另一种误解,直到最终他必须在法庭上接受审判。
法律小冲突
我生平只有一次陷入与法律的冲突。被捕与被带上法庭的整个经过在当时是一种令人极不愉快的经历,但现在这却成为一个好故事的素材。尤其令我恼怒的是我被捕及随后在法庭上受审时的种种武断情形。
事情大约发生在十二年前的二月,那是我中学毕业已经几个月了,但要等到十月份才能上大学,所以当时我仍在家中。
一天上午,我来到离我住地不远的、位于伦敦郊区的里士满。那是我正在找一份临时的工作,以便赚点钱去旅游。由于天气晴朗,又没什么急事,我便悠然自得得看着商店橱窗,逛逛公园,有时干脆停下来四处观望,一定是这种无所事事的样子使我倒了霉。
事情发生在十一点半左右,我在当地图书馆谋职未成,刚从那出发,就看到一个人从马路对面走过来,显然是想跟我说话。我原以为他要问我时间,想不到,他说他是警官,要逮捕我,开始我还以为这是个玩笑,但接着又来了身穿警服的警察,这下我无可置疑了。
“为什么要抓我?”我问。
“四处游荡,有作案嫌疑。”他说。
“做什么案?”我又问。
“偷东西。”他说。
“偷什么?”我追问。
“牛奶瓶。”他说,表情十分严肃。
“哦。”我说。
事情后来是这样的,这一带经常发生小偷小摸案件,尤其是从门前台阶上偷走牛奶瓶。
接着,我犯了个大错。那时我才十九岁,留着一头凌乱的长发,自认为是六十年代“青年反主流文化”的一员。因此,我想对此表现出一种冷漠,满不在乎的态度,于是用一种很随便无所谓的腔调说:“你们跟踪我多久了?”这样一来,在他们眼里,我是惯于此种情形的,这又使他们确信我是一个彻头彻尾的坏蛋。
几分钟后,来了一辆警车。
“坐到后面去,”他们说,“把手放在前排的座椅上,不许乱动。”
他俩分坐在我的左右,这下了不是闹着玩的了。
在警察局,他们审问了我好几个小时。我继续装作老于世故,对此事习以为常的样子。当他们问我一直在干什么时,我告诉他们在找工作。“啊哈!”这下我可看到他们在想,“无业游民”。
最后,我被正式指控,并得到通知下周一到里士满地方法院受审。他们这才让我走。
我本想在法庭上作自我辩护。但父亲一弄清事情的原委后,就为我请了一位很不错的律师。就在那个星期一,我们带着各种证人出庭了,其中包括我中学的英语老师作为我品行的见证人,但法庭并没有传话他作证。对我的“审判”也并没有进行到那一步,开庭才十五分钟,法官就驳回了此案,我被无罪释放。可怜的警察毫无胜诉的机会。我的律师甚至成功地使警察承担了诉讼费。
这样,我没有留下犯罪记录。但当时,最令人震惊的是我被无罪释放所明显依赖的证据。我有标准的口音,有受人尊敬的中产阶级的父母来到法庭,有可靠的证人,还有,很明显我请得起很好的律师。想到这次指控含混不清的特点,我敢断定,如果我出生在一个不同背景的家庭,并真失了业,则完全可能被判为有罪。当我的律师要求赔偿诉讼费时,他的辩词很明显地围绕着我“学习成绩优秀”这一事实。
与此同时,在法庭外面,曾经逮捕我的警察中的一个正沮丧地像我母亲抱怨说,又有一个小伙子要与警察做对了。他以责备的口气对我说:“我们抓你的时候,你本来可以帮帮忙的。”
他这话是什么意思?也许是说我应该做出大发雷霆的样子,并说:“喂,你知道是在和谁说话吗?我是品学兼优的高材生。你们怎敢抓我?”那样的话,他们也许会向我道歉,可能还会脱帽致意,让我扬长而去。
