一生的工作

Had I been older, I might never have left the hotel, for it had everything the word Siam evoked, a gourmet breakfast overlooking the busy, roaring river, two staff per guest liveried in the electric silks Jim Thompson first marketed here through his Thai Silk company, an irresistible seafood buffet at lunch, jazz in the evening, bronze elephants, flowers everywhere, and even a fully equipped gym on the other side of the river if your work ethic insisted.

如果我不再年轻，恐怕我就会在这个地方终老一生。这里包含了一切有"暹罗"特色的东西：一边享用美味的早餐，一边俯视着熙熙攘攘的河流；每位客人都有两名服务生伺候着，身着最早由吉姆·汤普森通过他的泰丝公司贩卖的丝衣；中午的自助餐全是海鲜，美味绝伦，令人食指大动；到了晚上，周围响起了爵士乐，到处可见铜雕的大象，鲜花遍地；河对岸甚至还有一家设施齐备的体育馆，可以满足那些工作要求甚高的人。

Dr. Robert Waterston (International Human Genome Sequencing Consortium): After three billion years of evolution, and several years of work by this 16coalition, we have before us the instruction set that carries each of us from a one-celled egg, to adulthood, to the grave.

罗伯特·沃特斯顿博士（国际人类基因组测序组织）∶经过30亿年的进化，以及这些科学家们数年的研究工作，我们终于揭开了基因组织的奥秘，而它将伴随每个人的一生，从一个单细胞卵到成人时代再到死亡的过程。

女人一生对鞋跟高度的要求，就好比抛物线一样，年少时好穿平底鞋：如果是运动款，往往是为了显示自己的俏皮可爱，鞋面颜色绚丽，如果是淑女款，鞋面的装饰则很花心思，加个蝴蝶结，镶上些珍珠或亮片，但是不管怎样，鞋跟肯定是平平的，最多也只是个楔型；参加工作了，鞋跟会随着职位的爬升或社交活动的增多而越来越高，高的鞋跟可以增添女人的媚态，如杨柳扶风，摇曳多姿，身材也更能突显，女性魅力发挥到极点；年纪增大后，高跟鞋开始不适合行走，慢慢的落到了老式的丑丑的样子，颜色还多半是黑色的。

But it is to live miserable we know not why; to work sore and yet gain nothing; to be heart-worn, weary, yet isolated, unrelated, girt in with a cold universal Laissez-faire: it is to die slowly all our life long, imprisoned in a deaf, dead Infinite Injustice,- as in the accursed iron belly of a Phalaris Bull!

悲惨的是活得可怜，而不知为什么；是工作得筋骨酸痛而无所得；是心酸，疲惫，却又孤立无援，被冷冰冰的普遍的自由放任主义紧紧裹在中间；是整个一生都在慢慢死去，被禁闭在一种不闻，不动，无边的不正义之中，就象被扔进了暴君的铜牛的该死的铁肚里一般。

本句的大意是：我一生中最兴奋的时光之一是在肯尼亚的图尔卡纳湖东岸工作的日子，在那里搜寻我们祖先的遗骨化石。

Tonight I am filled with gratitude — to VicePresident Cheney and members of my administration; to Laura, whobrought joy to this house and love to my life; to our wonderfuldaughters, Barbara and Jenna; to my parents, whose examples haveprovided strength for a lifetime.

我要感谢副总统切尼以及白宫的每一位工作人员；我要感谢劳拉，是她带给了这个家庭无比的快乐，带给我爱；我要感谢两名优秀的女儿--巴巴拉和杰纳；我要感谢我的父母，他们树立的榜样为我的一生提供了动力。

As she looked at Warrington's manly face, and dark, melancholy eyes, she had settled in her mind that he must have been the victim of an unhappy attachment.

每逢看到沃林顿那刚毅的脸，那乌黑、忧郁的眼睛，她便会相信，他一定作过不幸的爱情的受害者。
