别扭的

Two homosexual men: it is strange to have to say it just now because the distinct emphasis of so much that has been said about the movie—in commercial advertising as well as in the adulatory reviews—has been that the story told in Brokeback Mountain is not, in fact, a gay story, but a sweeping romantic epic with "universal" appeal.

前面说到人们因为不得不把他们称为两个同性恋的男人而感到别扭，是因为不论在商业广告还是在那些带有奉承色彩的评论中，都不断反复强调这样一个观点：断背山实际并不是一个同性恋的故事，而是一部有著博爱色彩的广泛适用的浪漫史诗。

他谈着各种粗鄙、猥亵、淫秽的事物，态度却莫名其妙地镇静文雅，毫不感到别扭。这是他那个世纪的狂态。值得注意的是，韵文晦涩的时代也就是散文粗劣的时代。

And even if you are not Chinese or even female, there are plenty of small moments that will resonate with anyone who has ever been a parent or child (which includes just about everyone), such as June's childhood battles with her mother over piano lessons, or how Lindo takes pleasure in bragging about Waverly's prowess in chess.

即使你不是中国人，甚至不是一个女人，只要你是家长或是孩子（几乎已涵盖到了每一个人），你都能与该片产生共鸣，例如：童年的君因被逼着上钢琴课而和她的母亲闹别扭，或者是林多以炫耀薇莉的象棋天赋为乐的表现。

Why, I hear tell those Minglings are bursting with pride because their kung-funaut chowed down in zero gravity on some garlic chicken feet, those deep-fried burritos they call egg rolls, and that dish that looks like a normal guy ate a bunch of Sizzilean and broccoli and couldn\\\'t keep it down.

为什么？我听到这些人在骄傲的庆祝，就是因为这些儒教徒在零重力环境中吃到了大蒜烹饪的鸡腿，那些用重油炸烂了的，他们叫做是蛋卷的东西，那些菜看起来象一个人吃着一捆Sizzilean和甘蓝，却不能掌握这一切一样（这句话也真别扭，有大侠来翻译一下没有？）。

For, though the celestial rapture falling out of heaven seizes only upon those of tender age, and although a beauty overpowering all analysis or comparison, and putting us quite beside ourselves, we can seldom see after thirty years, yet the remembrance of these visions outlasts all other remembrances, and is a wreath of flowers on the oldest brows.

这段我试着翻了一下，有很多地方觉得别扭，希望大家多提意见。。。尽管降临自天国的狂喜至悦只能震慑稚龄人们的心魄，尽管令人溺惑痴狂以至难于析较的冶艳丽质在人过中年后已属百无一见，然而此种美妙情景却有如斑斑鹤发上的花冠，鲜活于记忆中，回味逾常。

At the door to the restaurant, a stunning, porcelain-faced woman in traditional costume asked me to remove my shoes. This done, I entered one of the low-ceilinged rooms of the little floating house, treading cautiously on the soft matting and experiencing a twinge of embarrassment at the prospect of meeting the mayor of Hiroshima in my socks.

饭店门口，有一个长的很漂亮，皮肤很白，身着传统服饰的迎宾小姐，领我脱去外套之后，带我走进这座漂浮小屋里，来到一间天花板很低的房间，我小心翼翼地坐到柔软的榻榻米上，一想到自己将穿着袜子见市长，总觉得有点别扭。

A well-expressed letter makes a far more positive impression on the reader than does an awkwardly phrased, jargon-filled letter.

Despite all these accomplishments, it is easy to conceive that - like many amateur astronomers of today - one of his greatest loves was to turn eye and telescope upon the wonders of the night sky.
