英语阅读（一）课文句子翻译
1. A Day’s Wait
一天的等待
1、He came into the room to shut the
windows while we were still in bed
and I saw
he looked ill. He was shivering, his face was
white, and he walked
slowly as though it ached
to move.
他走进我们房间关窗户的时候，我们还未起床。我见他一副病容，全身哆
嗦
，脸色苍白，步履缓慢，好象一动就会引起疼痛。
2、But when I came
downstairs he was dressed, sitting by the fire,
looking
a very sick and miserable boy of nine
years. When I put my hand on his
forehead I
knew had a fever.
可是当我来到楼下时，他已穿好衣服，坐在火炉旁。这个九岁的
男孩，看
上去病得厉害，一副可怜的模样。我用手摸了摸他的额头，知道他发烧了。
3、 “All right. If you want to,” said the boy.
His face was very white and
there were dark
areas under his eyes. He lay still in the bed and
seemed very
detached from what was going on.
“好的，如果你想读的话，” 孩子说。
他的脸色十分苍白，眼窝下方有黑
晕。他躺在床上一动不动，对周围发生的一切漠然置之。
3. Bringing up Children培养孩子
1、 It
is generally accepted that the experiences of the
child in his first years
largely determine his
character and later personality.
一个人儿童时代的经历在很大程度上决定了他的性格和未来的个性，这一点是被
大家所公认的。
2、 All parents have to solve the problems
of freedom and discipline. The
younger the
child, the more readily the mother gives in to his
demands to avoid
disappointing him. She knows
that if his energies are not given an outlet, her
child’s
continuing development may be warped.
An example of this is the young child’s need
to play with the mud and sand and water.
所有的父母必须解决孩子的自由与纪律的问题。孩子越小，母亲为了不令其感到
失望，就越容易对孩子的
要求作出让步。因为她知道，如果孩子的精力得不到发泄，那
么他持续稳定的发展就会受到影响。小孩子
喜欢玩泥巴，沙子和水就说明了这一点。
3、Where one stage of
child development has been left out, or not
sufficiently
experienced, the child may have
to go back and capture the experience of it.
如
果儿童发展的某一个阶段被忽略了，或是没有得到充分的体验，那么他可能就
要重返那个阶段以获得那个
阶段所应获得的经验。

Art for Heart’s Sake为了心脏而艺术

problem was that while he was still a fabulously

意场上的失败却在影响着他的健康。他上一次心脏病发作是在衣阿华州倒霉地

3、The health problem he
suffered before that came about because of
excitement over the failure of a chain of
grocery stores, stores which he had
purchases
had to be liquidated at a great sacrifice to both
his pocketbook and
his health. They were
beginning to have serious effects.
在此之前他的心脏病复发
，是因为一家食品杂货连锁店的经营不善而使他
情绪上受到了刺激，这家商店是他在通货膨胀时期购买的
。最近他购买的公司、
商店看来都得清理变卖，这时他的经济利益和身体健康都是一个巨大的损失，其<
br>后果十分严重。
4、He realized that he needed
to interest the old man in something which
would take his mind off his problem and
redirect his energies. His answer was
art. 因此，卡斯韦尔医生已经做了一些积极的考虑，认为应使埃尔斯沃思先生
的大脑从生意的困境中解脱
出来，把他的精力转移到其它地方。艺术便是最佳选
择。

blessings that lie in
sight .particularly does this observation apply to
those who
have lost sight and hearing in adult
life.
只有聋子懂得听力的价值，只有瞎子才会对光明祈求不止，尤其对一个在成年期

old story of not being grateful for what we have
until we lose
it. of not being conscious of
health until we are ill.

23.
Inaugural Address 就职演讲
1、We dare not
forget today that we are the heirs of that first
revolution. Let the
word go forth from this
time and place, to friend and foe alike, that the
torch
has been passed to a new generation of
Americans -- born in this century,
tempered by
war, disciplined by a hard and bitter peace, proud
of our ancient
heritage, and unwilling to
witness or permit the slow undoing of those human
rights to which this nation has always been
committed, and to which we are
committed today
at home and around the world.
今天，我们不敢忘记我们是第一次革
命的继承者。让我们的朋友和敌人同样听见
我此时此地的讲话：火炬已经传给新一代美国人。这一代人在
本世纪诞生，经历
过战争的考验，受过严酷而艰苦的和平的熏陶，他们为我国悠久的传统感到自豪
---他们不愿目睹或听任我国一向保证的、今天仍在国内外作出保证的人权渐趋毁
灭。
2、To those new states whom we welcome to the
ranks of the free, we pledge
our word that one
form of colonial control shall not have passed
away merely
- 5 -
to be
replaced by a far more iron tyranny. We shall not
always expect to find
them supporting our
view. But we shall always hope to find them
strongly
supporting their own freedom -- and
to remember that, in the past, those who
foolishly sought power by riding the back of
the tiger ended up inside.
对那些我们欢迎其加入到自由行列中来
的新国家，我们恪守我们的誓言：绝不
让一种更为残酷的暴政来取代一种消失的殖民统治。我们并不总是
指望他们会支
持我们的观点。但我们始终希望看到他们坚强地维护自己的自由---
而且要记住，
在历史上，过去想骑在老虎背上攫取权力的人最终必葬身虎腹。
3、Can we forge against these enemies a grand
and global alliance, North
and South, East and
West, that can assure a more fruitful life for all
mankind?
Will you join in that historic
effort?
我们能否结成一个遍及东西南北的全球性伟大联盟来对付这些敌人，来确保全人
类享有更为富裕的生活？你们是否愿意参与这历史性的努力？
4、In the
long history of the world, only a few generations
have been granted
the role of defending
freedom in its hour of maximum danger. I do not
shrink
from this responsibility -- I welcome
it. I do not believe that any of us would
exchange places with any other people or any
other generation. The energy,
the faith, the
devotion which we bring to this endeavor will
light our country and
all who serve it. And
the glow from that fire can truly light the world.
在世界的悠久历史中，只有很少几个世代的人赋有这种在自由遭遇最大危机时保
卫自由的任务。
我绝不在这责任之前退缩；我欢迎它。我不想信我们中间会有人
愿意跟别人及别的世代交换地位。我们在
这场努力中所献出的精力、信念与虔诚，
将照亮我们的国家以及所有为国家服务的人，而从这一火焰所聚
出的光辉必能照
明全世界。
5、And so, my fellow
Americans, ask not what your country can do for
you;
ask what you can do for your fellow
citizens of the world, ask not
what America
will do for you, but what together we can do for
the freedom of
man.
所以，同胞们：不要问你们的国家能为你们做些什
么，而要问你们能为国家
做些什么。全世界的公民：不要问美国愿意为你们做些什么，而应问我们在一起
能为人类的自由做些什么。
25. The Constitution of
the United States美国的宪法
1、a system under
which each of the states would look after its own
affairs
while a general government would
attend to matters that the states could not
deal with effectively. People would then be
subject to two sets of laws, those of
the
nation and those of the states in which they
lived. No other plan would win
the support of
any state.
在此体系下，各州管理自己的事务，而合众政府则管理各州不能有效地处理<
br>的事务。那么人们就要遵守两套法律，国家的法律和本州的法律。
- 6 -
2、Powers not granted to the United
States by the Constitution nor denied
by it to
the state are reserved to the states or to the
people themselves.
宪法没有授予合众国的、也没有否认各州可享有的权利，则保留给了各州或
人民自己。
3、Next, the Constitution provides for a
federal government based on the
principle of
the separation of powers. It provides for three
distinct departments
of government:
legislative, executive and judicial. All
legislative power granted
by the Constitution
is given to Congress; the executive power is given
to the
President; and the judicial power is
given to the Supreme Court and other
federal
courts. The Constitution has many provisions
intended to keep each
department independent
and strong. Each department has ways of exerting
some control over the others.
其次，宪法规定联邦政府
基于分权的原则。它规定政府分三个不同的部门：
立法、行政和司法。宪法所准许的全部立法权授予国会
，行政权授予总统，司法
权授予最高法院及其他联邦法院。宪法设立许多条款意使各部门保持独立和强<
br>大。每个部门都可以对其他部门施加某种控制。
4、Congress has
the power to levy taxes, maintain an army and
navy,
declare war, regulate commerce among the
states and with foreign nations,
admit new
states into the Union, and to do many other
things. The President’s
powers include the
making of treaties with foreign nations with the
consent of
the Senate. The Federal courts try
all cases arising under the Constitution and
under federal laws and treaties.
国会有权征税以维持
一支陆军和海军，有权宣战，有权规范各州间以及与外
国的商业行为，有权接纳新州加入联邦，并有权处
理其他许多事务。总统的权力
包括经参议院同意与外国签订条约。联邦法院在宪法、联邦法制定的法律及
有关
条款的指导下审理出现的各种案件。
5、 The
Constitution is the defender of the rights of the
individual. It upholds
the principles of
freedom of religion, freedom of the press, and
freedom of
speech. It provides for a fair
trial for persons accused of crimes, and forbids
cruel and unusual punishments. It protects the
home against unlawful search
by authorities.
It forbids any state to deprive any person of
life, liberty or
property without due process
of law, or to deny to any person equal protection
of the laws.
宪法是个人权力的时捍卫者。它坚持宗教自由、出版自由和言论自
由的原则。
它确保被指控犯罪者有一个公平的审判，禁止酷刑和特殊的惩罚。它保护家庭住
宅免
受当局不合法的搜查。它禁止任何州不经正当的法律程序就剥夺任何人的生
命、自由和财产，或拒绝给任
何人以同等的法律保护。
