　　劍橋校園生活情景對(duì)話：古老的建筑

　　L: Hello, Craig! Let me have a look at your pictures!

　　L:你好，克雷格!讓我看看你拍的照片好嗎?

　　C: OK, here you are.

　　C:好的，給你吧。

　　L： Wow. They are really great. You are so skilled in taking pictures.

　　L:哇，拍得真不錯(cuò)。你拍照的技術(shù)很好。

　　C: Thanks. These buildings are just beautiful in themselves. I like the gothic hall very much.

　　C:謝謝夸獎(jiǎng)。這些建筑本身就很漂亮。我非常喜歡這個(gè)哥特式的門廳。

　　L： I guess this one is King’s College in Cambridge? I heard form Lucy that you went there last Weekend. How is your journey?

　　L:我猜這應(yīng)該是劍橋的國(guó)王學(xué)院吧?我聽(tīng)露西說(shuō)，上固末你去了劍橋?玩得怎么樣 啊?

　　C: A little bit tired, but it，s paid off. How do you know that this is the King’s College?

　　C:有點(diǎn)累，但是很值得。你怎么知道這里是國(guó)王學(xué)院的?

　　L: Are you kidding me? This is the Cambridge’s landmark! But I have no idea why it was called the King’s College; does it have something to do with kings?

　　L:你不是在跟我開(kāi)玩笑吧?這是劍橋的標(biāo)志性建筑啊!不過(guò)，我不知道它為什么叫 做"國(guó)王學(xué)院’’，難道它真的和國(guó)王有關(guān)系?

　　C: You’re right. King’s College was founded in 1441 by King Henry VI. His first design was modest, but by 1445 it was intended to be a magnificent display of royal patronage.

　　C:你說(shuō)對(duì)了。國(guó)王學(xué)院是1441年由亨利六世主持建造的。剛開(kāi)始的設(shè)計(jì)并沒(méi)有這 么華麗，但到了 1445年，就決定把它建造得更加宏偉壯麗，以展示皇家杈威。

　　L: I heard that it has taken them 80 years to finish the building.

　　L:我聽(tīng)說(shuō)整個(gè)建筑花了 80年才完成。

　　C: Really? It was a huge project. Let me show you another picture. See, this is the bronze statue of King Henry VI in the middle of the yard.

　　C:真的嗎?這真是個(gè)巨大的工程。我給你看看另外一張照片?？?，草坪中間就是亨 利六世的紀(jì)念銅像。

　　L: Having the king’s support, this college must have some privileges in the past. There is no wonder that buildings here are so splendid.

　　L：有了國(guó)王的支持，這個(gè)學(xué)院過(guò)去肯定享有不少特權(quán)吧。難怪這個(gè)學(xué)院的建筑這么 宏偉。

　　C: That is true. The college was used to be granted a remarkable series of feudal privileges, and all of this was supported by a substantial series of endowments from the King.

　　C:對(duì)啊。這個(gè)學(xué)院曾經(jīng)擁有過(guò)不少封建4寺權(quán)呢，而且這些都由國(guó)王連續(xù)不斷地捐贈(zèng)來(lái)支持。

　　L： I heard that students in this college are more politically active than other colleges. That may have something to do with their traditions.

　　聽(tīng)說(shuō)，這個(gè)學(xué)院的學(xué)生要比其他學(xué)院的學(xué)生都活躍。這肯定和他們的傳統(tǒng)有關(guān)系。

　　C： It has its own student unions both for undergraduates and for graduates. The student union has a long record of activism.

　　它有自己的本科生學(xué)生會(huì)和研究生學(xué)生會(huì)，學(xué)生會(huì)一向很活躍。

　　L： Their activities must have exerted great influence on the college and the university.

　　他們的舌動(dòng)肯定對(duì)學(xué)院，乃至整個(gè)劍橋大學(xué)都產(chǎn)生了重大影響。

　　C： That’s for sure. Time Magazine published in 2000 a list of the most “influential and important” people of the twentieth century.

　　也許吧。2000年的《時(shí)代周刊 》 報(bào)道過(guò)20世紀(jì)全球最有影響力的人物名單。

　　L： Are there any students or fellows from this college in the list?

　　里面有這所學(xué)院的人嗎?

　　C: That is what Vxn going to say. In a list of one hundred names, King’s was the only European institution that could claim two.

　　這正是我要說(shuō)的。在這100個(gè)名字當(dāng) 中，國(guó)王學(xué)院是雎一擁有兩位人選人 的歐洲機(jī)構(gòu)。

　　L: Where did you take this photo? Why there is only one small tree standing in the middle of the yard?

　　你這些照片是在哪里拍的。為什么庭 院中間只有一棵這樣的小樹(shù)啊?

　　C: It is perhaps the world’s most famous apple tree.

　　這恐怕是世界上最為著名的蘋果樹(shù)了。

　　L: Oh, I see. Is it Newton's apple tree?

　　哦，我知道了。這是牛頓的蘋果樹(shù)嗎?

　　C: Yes, but it is not the original one. It is said that this tree is the offspring of the apple tree which led Newton to have discovered the law of gravity.

　　是的，但這不是原來(lái)那棵。據(jù)說(shuō)，這 棵樹(shù)是那棵讓牛頓發(fā)現(xiàn)萬(wàn)有弓I力定律的蘋果樹(shù)的后代。

　　L： That’s interesting. So, these were taken in the famous Trinity College which produced numerous famous people like Newton, Bacon, Byron and so on?

　　真有意思。所以這些照片就是在鼎鼎有名的三一學(xué)院拍的曝?很多名人都出自那 里，像牛頓、培根、拜倫等。

　　C: Yes, you’re right. This one was also taken in the New Court, which was built in Tudor-Gothic style.

　　你說(shuō)的對(duì)。這張也是在新庭拍的，它是都鐸時(shí)代的哥特式風(fēng)格的建筑。

　　L: It’s beautiful!

　　太漂亮啦!

　　C： And this is a view of the Wren Library.

　　這張是萊恩圖書(shū)館。

　　L:I wish I could spend my college years in this kind library. It must be an enjoyment.

　　真希望我也能在這樣的圖書(shū)館里度過(guò)自己的大學(xué)時(shí)光，這絕對(duì)是種享受。

　　C: This one is St. Catherine’s. Its red brick buildings dating from the end of the seventeenth century, and its court, planted with elms, opening to the street.

　　這張是圣凱瑟琳學(xué)院，建成于17世紀(jì)，樓體都用紅色的磚塊蓋成，庭院里種滿 了榆樹(shù)。

　　L： Lovely. This is the first time I see the pictures of it since it is not as famous as the King’s，Trinity.

　　真漂亮。這是我第一次看到它的照片，它并不像國(guó)王學(xué)院和三一學(xué)院那么有名氣。

　　C: Actually, beside those buildings in colleges, there are many beautiful comers in Cambridge.

　　實(shí)際上，除了這些建筑，劍橋還有很多漂亮的地方。
