　　大學(xué)英語四級(jí)晨讀美文3篇品析

　　Appetite

　　渴望

　　One of the major pleasures in life is appetite, and one of our major duties should be to preserve it.

　　渴望乃生活之一大樂事，而心懷渴望則成為一項(xiàng)重要的任務(wù)。

　　Appetite is the keenness of living; it is one of the senses that tell you that you are still curious to exist, that you still have an edge on your longings and want to bite into the world and taste its multitudinous flavors and juices.

　　渴望意味著對(duì)生活充滿熱情，這種感覺表明你依然希冀生活，熱衷夢(mèng)想，向往探索世界，歷盡世間百味百態(tài)。

　　By appetite, of course, I don’t mean just the lust for food, but any condition of unsatisfied desire, any burning in the blood that proves you want more than you’ve got, and that you haven’t yet used up your life.

　　當(dāng)然，我所說的“渴望”不單指對(duì)食物的欲望，而指所有欲求未滿的狀態(tài)，及血液中燃燒的激情，這熾熱的激情證明你希望收獲更多，你的生命力并未耗盡。

　　Wilde said he felt sorry for those who never got their heart’s desire, but sorrier still for those who did.

　　王爾德曾說過，對(duì)未能夢(mèng)想成真者，他深表惋惜;而對(duì)心愿已遂者，他則倍感遺憾。

　　Appetite, to me, is this state of wanting, which keeps one’s expectations alive.

　　對(duì)我來說，渴望就是這種想往的狀態(tài)，它總是讓人滿懷期待。

　　In wanting a peach, or a whisky, or a particular texture or sound, or to be with a particular friend.

　　因此，對(duì)我來說，渴望的最大樂趣之一在于心懷想往，而非心滿意足，比如，想往一只密桃，一瓶威士忌，一塊特質(zhì)布料，或一種美妙的聲音，亦或期望與朋友團(tuán)聚。

　　For in this condition, of course, I know that the object of desire is always at its most flawlessly perfect.

　　因?yàn)?，我知道在這種情況下，心中渴求之物總是完美無缺的。

　　Which is why I would carry the preservation of appetite to the extent of deliberate fasting, simply because I think that appetite is too good to lose, too precious to be bludgeoned into insensibility by satiation and over-doing it.

　　懷著這種渴望，我特意安排了齋戒。原因很簡單，我覺得渴望是極好的事，不能喪失，它彌足珍貴，不能飽食生膩，耗費(fèi)過度使其淪為麻木無知之境。

　　Fasting is an act of homage to the majesty of appetite. So I think we should arrange to give up our pleasures regularly—our food, our friends, our lovers—in order to preserve their intensity, and the moment of coming back to them.

　　禁是對(duì)欲望的神圣的一種膜拜。所以，我認(rèn)為我們應(yīng)該安排不時(shí)地放棄一些享樂之事—食物，朋友，愛人，這樣的話我們才能保持我們對(duì)他們的濃烈感情，才能保留與他們重聚的那一刻。

　　For this is the moment that renews and refreshes both oneself and the thing one loves. Sailors and travelers enjoyed this once, and so did hunters, I suppose. Part of the weariness of modern life may be that we live too much on top of each other, and are entertained and fed too regularly.

　　因?yàn)?，這一刻讓我們自己和我們鐘情之物都煥然一新，充滿新鮮感。我想不管是水手，游客還是獵人都曾有過這種體會(huì)?；蛟S現(xiàn)代生活的一部分令人厭倦之處就在于我們的生活太接近彼此了，我們的娛樂，我們的飲食都太有規(guī)律了。

　　Too much of anything—too much music, entertainment, happy snacks, or time spent with one’s friends—creates a kind of impotence of living by which one can no longer hear, or taste, or see, or love, or remember. Life is short and precious, and appetite is one of its guardians, and loss of appetite is a sort of death.

　　任何一樣?xùn)|西—-音樂、娛樂、零食、與朋友在一起的時(shí)光---若是太多，就會(huì)形成一種無趣的生活，這種生活中，人們?cè)僖膊荒苋ヂ牐テ穱L，去看，去愛，去記憶。生命是如此短暫如此珍貴，而欲望就是它的一名守護(hù)者，失去欲望生命就近乎死亡。

　　So if we are to enjoy this short life we should respect the divinity of appetite, and keep it eager and not to much blunted.

　　因此，如果我們想要享受我們短暫的一生，我們就應(yīng)該尊重欲望的神圣，讓它保持熱切程度不被磨鈍。

　　On Beauty

　　論美

　　Where shall you seek beauty, and how shall you find her unless she herself be your way and your guide? And how shall you speak of her except she be the weaver of your speech?

　　如果美不以自身為途徑，為向?qū)В銈兊侥睦?，又如何能找到她?如果她不是你們言語的編織者，你們又如何能談?wù)撍?

　　The aggrieved and the injured say, “Beauty is kind and gentle. Like a young mother half-shy of her own glory she walks among us.” And the passionate say,” Nay, beauty is a thing of might and dread. Like the tempest she shakes the earth beneath us and sky above us.” The tired and the weary say, “Beauty is of soft whisperings. She speaks in our spirit. Her voice yields to our silences like a faint light that quivers in fear of the shadow.” But the restless say,” We have heard her shouting among the mountains, and with her cries came the sound of hoofs, and the beating of wings and the roaring of lions.”

　　傷心痛苦者說：“美是善良而溫柔的。她像一位因自己的榮耀而半含羞澀的年輕母親，走在我們的身邊。” 熱情奔放者說：“不，美是強(qiáng)烈而令人驚畏的。她如暴風(fēng)雨般震動(dòng)我們腳下的大地，搖撼我們頭上的天空。” 疲憊怠倦者說：“美是溫柔的低語，她在我們的心中訴說。她的聲音波動(dòng)在我們的沉默中，猶如一道微弱的光在對(duì)陰影的恐懼中顫抖。” 但活潑好動(dòng)者說：“我們?cè)牭剿谏焦戎写舐暫艚?，隨其吶喊而來的是足蹄踏地、翅膀拍擊和雄獅怒吼的聲音。

　　At night the watchmen of the city say,” Beauty shall rise with the dawn from the east.” And at noon-time the toilers say,” We have seen her leaning over the earth from the windows of the sunset.” In winter say the snowbound, “She shall come with the spring leaping upon the hills.” And in the summer heat the reapers say,” We have seen her dancing with the autumn leaves, and we saw a drift of snow in her hair.”

　　夜晚，城市的守夜人說：“美將與晨光一同從東方升起。” 正午，辛勤勞作者和長途跋涉者說：“我們?cè)吹剿高^黃昏之窗眺望大地。” 嚴(yán)冬，困在風(fēng)雪中的人說：“她將與春同至，雀躍于山巒之間。” 酷暑，收割莊稼的人說：“我們?cè)吹剿c秋葉共舞，雪花點(diǎn)綴于她的發(fā)梢。”

　　All these things have you said of beauty, yet in truth you spoke not of her but of needs unsatisfied, and beauty is not a need but an ecstasy. It is not a mouth thirsting nor an empty hand stretched forth, but rather a heart enflamed and a soul enchanted. It is not the image you would see nor the song you would hear, but rather an image you see though you close your eyes and a song you hear though you shut your ears. It is not sap within the furrowed bark, nor a wing attached to a claw, but rather a garden for ever in bloom and a flock of angels for ever in flight. Beauty is life when life unveils her holy face.

　　你們談到關(guān)于美的所有這些，實(shí)際并非關(guān)于她本身，而是關(guān)于你們未被滿足的需求，但美并不是一種需求，而是心醉神迷的欣喜。她不是焦渴的唇，也不是伸出的空空的手，而是一顆燃燒的心，一個(gè)充滿喜悅的靈魂。她不是你們想看到的形象，也不是你們想聽到的歌聲，而是你們閉上眼睛看到的形象，堵住耳朵聽到的歌聲。她不是傷殘樹皮下的樹液，也不是懸在利爪下的翅膀。而是一座鮮花永遠(yuǎn)盛開的花園，一群永遠(yuǎn)在天空飛翔的天使。 當(dāng)生命摘去遮蓋她圣潔面容的面紗時(shí)，美就是生命
