每日翻译：我常常做梦

英语自学网

　　1. 我常常做梦。无月无星的黑夜里我的梦最多。
        　　2.
天渐渐地亮开来。我的眼前异常明亮。泥沼没有了。我前面横着一片草原，新绿中点缀了红白色的花朵。我仰头望天。蔚蓝色的天幕上隐约地现出淡墨色的龙影，一身鳞甲还是乌亮乌亮的。
        　　3. When the truth is ugly, people try to keep it hidden, because they know
if revealed, the damage it will do. So they conceal it within sturdy walls, or
they place it behind closed doors, or they obscure it with clever disguises, but
truth , no matter how ugly, always emerges, and someone we care about always
ends up getting hurt, and someone else will revel in their pain, and that's the
ugliest truth of all。(英译汉)

我只当过十年的教师。那是一九二六年我从美国留学回来，在母校燕京大学国文系当了一名教师。那时系里的主任和教师大半是我的老师。校内其他科、系里也有我的老师。总之，全校的教师都是我的师辈!因此在开教授会的时候，我总是挑个极边极角的座位，惶恐地缩在一旁。大家都笑着称我为Faculty
Baby(教授会的婴儿)。那一学期我还不满二十六岁。
        　　I was a teacher for only ten years. In 1926, on my return to China after
finishing studies in the United States, I began to teach at my alma mater
Yenching University, Peiping, as a lecturer in Chinese. The deans and teachers
of the Department of Chinese then were mostly my former teachers. Often
faculties and departments also had no lack of my former teachers. I may well say
that practically all the teaching staff of the University were my seniors.
Therefore, at a faculty meeting, I always chose a seat at an unobservable corner
of the room. Everybody jokingly called me “faculty baby”. I was then on the
right side of 26.
        　　2. Everyone understands the nature of war; we also understand that victory
depends on the cards that we have been dealt. Some when faced with a bloody
battle simply give in, but for some surrender is unacceptable, even though they
know it would be a fight to the death。(英译汉)
        　　每个人都清楚战争的本性，我们也知道胜利取决于我们打出的那些牌。有些人在面对血战时会从容放弃;但是对某些人来说投降是无法接受的，尽管他们清楚即将决一死战。
