1、Chinese Translation of Paragraphs1. 二戰(zhàn)時,曼徹斯特飽受空襲之苦。成長在那里,意味著歲月艱難、錢財短缺、心情焦慮, 也意味著許多家庭都是當鋪的??停ㄎ壹?。2. 不過,我的父母最是樂觀向上。他們用勤勞、自尊和滿屋子的歡笑撐起了這個家。我 父親身體結實,心靈手巧,他那雙手幾乎無所不能,從不缺木匠和手工活兒。他甚至偶爾還 會參加偏僻街道的挙擊比賽,補貼家用。我母親勤儉節(jié)約,把家收拾得干凈利落。盡管條 件艱苦,但她總能讓自己的五個孩子吃得飽飽、穿得整整齊齊、干干凈凈地上學去。3. 問題是:雖說我的衣服熨得有棱有角,皮鞋擦得錚亮錚亮的,可總有些地方不符合標 準校服
2、的要求。盡管母親縮衣肖食為我籌到了大部分裝束,但我仍然沒能湊齊學校指定的藍 色運動上衣和帽圈。4. 由于戰(zhàn)爭影響,開始實施配給制度,大部分學校也放寬了對正規(guī)校服的要求,因為學 校明白能有衣服穿已屬不易。然而,我就讀的女子學校卻嚴格規(guī)立,每位學生必須穿正規(guī)的 校服。于是那位負責每天集合的副校長就將訓斥我視為她的任務來做。5. 盡管我試圖去解釋我為何沒能按規(guī)左著裝,盡管我也正逐漸向全套校服靠近,我每天 依然會被揪岀隊列,在臺上罰站,作為對違反校服規(guī)定者的警戒。6. 我每天站在同學面前,只能強忍淚水,不僅羞愧難耐,而且常常只有我一人挨罰。對 我的懲罰還擴大到不能上體操課或者我鐘愛的每周一次的交誼舞課
3、。我多么希望在這所可怕 的學校里,哪怕只有一位老師能睜開雙眼看看我能夠做什么,而不是不停地告訴我不能做什 么?。?. 不過,12歲的我在心里也亳無選擇,只有眼睜睜地挨受懲罰。我明白不能讓仁厚的母 親知逍我所遭受的這種習慣性羞辱,這點非常重要。我也不敢冒險讓她到學校替我求情,因 為我知道那些心胸狹隘、不講情而的教員們也同樣會令她難堪,這意味著到時我們母女倆都 要傷心、憤怒。老天!要是母親再告訴父親的話,他立馬會大發(fā)雷霆,沖到學校來保護我。8. 一天,我們?nèi)以谝患覉蠹埮e辦的不收取費用的肖像模特攝影比賽中獲了獎。我為此 興奮不已:那些好萊塢女星魅力四射的照片更令我想入非非。我迫不及待地想把這個激動
4、人 心的消息告訴朋友們。9. 任那之前,母親告訴我必須穿那件綠色蕾絲鑲邊裙一一我最好的服裝一一去上學,因為 攝影比賽正好安排在放學之后。她絲亳沒有意識到我所要而臨的痛苦。10. 那天,我沒有往常穿上這件心愛衣服時的喜悅。我心情郁悶地拖著沉重的步伐來到學 校,發(fā)現(xiàn)自己成為了藍色海洋中的一顆綠寶石。集合的時候,我沒等人下命令就慢步龍上臺, 去承受英他女生的竊笑和副校長那尖刻的眼神。 當我第無數(shù)次想到,這位老師怎么會如此麻木不仁,竟然從未透過我的著裝,看看這 顆順從聽話、渴望參與的女孩的心靈的時候,沮喪的淚水幾欲奪眶而出。12 集合之后的第一節(jié)課是我鐘愛的英國文學,上課的教師也是我所鐘愛的。我安慰自
5、己 說,至少我可以在后排座位上暫時沉浸在查爾斯狄更斯的雙城記之中,以便能回過神 兒鎮(zhèn)左下來。可是上課鈴一響,麥克維小姐就叫我坐在前排正對她的座位上??上攵?,我 當時是多么驚慌失措。我緩慢地站了起來,忍著淚水,走到前排。心想,麥克維小姐不會也 加入到敵人的陣營里了吧13. 我垂著雙眼低著頭。在一次又一次地被叫出隊列之后,雖然我始終竭力不讓自己的痛苦 外露,但淚水還是又差點出賣了我內(nèi)心的沮喪。14. 當我在前排坐下,麥克維小姐將頭扭到一邊,上下仔細地打量著我。接著,她說岀 了我在那所討厭的學校里聽到的最中聽的一句話。15. "親愛的,我敢說你是這所死氣沉沉的學校里一道最亮麗、最可愛的風
6、景。可惜啊, 我只能有幸看你一節(jié)課,而不是一整天。"我幼小心靈中的那塊堅冰瞬間消融了,我 也不禁挺直了肩膀。16. )我相信我當時回敬她的笑容是她所見過的最燦爛的笑容了。她仔細斟酌的話語溫曖 了我,讓我興高采烈地度過了整整一天。17.雖然麥克維小姐的專長是英語文學,但那天她卻給我一一給全班一一上了一堂持憐憫之心的課,我永志不忘。她讓我明白,一句及時的友善之言可以讓人受益終生。著實,她貼 心的話讓我內(nèi)心變得堅強起來,再也不為什么人、什么事所傷害。III.
