Unit two Growing-up Pains
Child was
the father of the adult:三岁看大
It is taken from
William Wordsworth”s
famous poem “the
rainbow”. It means: all
our positive and
negative traits are
established when we are
young. Indeed, if
you watch children at play,
you’ll notice
them demonstrate certain
characteristics
which remain with them
forever. So it is
necessary to groom children
to adopt
healthy and positive traits so that
they
grow up to be balanced individuals.
The Rainbow
William Wordsworth
My
heart leaps up when I behold
A Rainbow in the
sky:
So was it when my life began;
So
is it now I am a man;
So be it when I shall
grow old,
Or let me die!
The Child is
father of the man;
And I could wish my days to
be
Bound each to each by
natural piety.
吾心激荡
威廉·华兹华斯
每当我仰望天空的彩虹
我的心就会激烈的跳动
我来到这个世界时如此
如今我长大成人时如此
以后我垂垂老去时如此
或者让我死去亦是如此
年幼是长大成人的奠基
我希望生命来回往复着
伴着与生的虔诚流连着
这首诗无论怎么翻译都无法把原诗的含义表达出来，反
而把原诗蕴涵的哲学及宗教意义丧失。“
彩虹”不仅是自
然中的彩虹，更是心中的彩虹，祂代表的是人类的救主
耶稣基督，这是在圣经旧
约创世纪中耶稣与诺亚的对话
中表达的。耶稣说，当你看到天边的彩虹时，那就是我，
我以彩虹
为约，不再以洪水为惩罚手段。是为“彩虹之
约”。正因如此，当诗人看到彩虹时才会如此欣喜若狂，<
br>激动不已。自然中的彩虹不一定天天有，但心中的彩虹
必时时拥有。
当我处于儿童时期时心中就有彩虹，现在有，以后也会
有。
如果心中失去彩虹，将与行尸走肉无异。即使肉体
还在但灵魂已死。“儿童是人之父”有多重含义：其一
是
指耶稣基督降生之时他已经是人类的天父；这里的儿童
当然是指圣母玛利亚在马厩生下耶稣之
时，当他还是婴
儿之时已然是人之父；其二是指人的成长发展历程，昔
日的儿童现在已经长大成
人，已经是人之父；其三是说
浪漫主义的理念，崇尚简单、质朴、自然、天真、纯洁
的东西，儿
童是这一切的代表，而这正是人类所应该回
归和发展的本源和方向。这一点与道家老子的观点有一
致的地方——“复归于朴”、“复归于婴儿”。诗人最后希
望他的每一天每一时心中都有这种天然的虔
敬，都有“彩
虹” 。

Understanding the quotations
1. Little children, headache; big children,
heartache.
In terms of problems that children
give to their
parents, big children are far
more troublesome than
little
ones.
2. Mother Nature is providential. She
gives us twelve
years to develop a love for
our children before turning
them into
teenagers.
Mother Nature has designed
everything for us. She
gives us twelve years
to establish a close and
affectionate parent-
child bone before they become
troublesome
teenagers who keep giving us headaches.
3.
Adolescents are not monsters. They are just people
trying to learn how to make it among the
adults in the
world, who are probably not so
sure themselves.
Adolescents are not
frightening creatures. They are
probably in
confusion and are trying to earn their
own
position among adults in the world.
