枪声

A revolution in track and field is silent gun starting introduced to the Olympics for the first time in Athens. This will guarantee that each runner hears the sound of the gun at the same time via speakers placed behind the runner.

田径运动的一项改革是无声发令枪首次在雅典奥运会赛场上被使用，这确保了每一位参赛者在同一时间听到从放置在他们身后的话筒中传出的发令枪声。

Even the best foxhound is gun-shy the first time out.

即使是最好的猎狗，第一次听到枪声也会害怕。

Time however, and the Satisfaction I had, that I was in no Danger of being discover'd by these People, began to wear off my Uneasiness about them; and I began to live just in the same compos'd Manner as before; only with this Difference, that I used more Caution, and kept my Eyes more about me than I did before, least I should happen to be seen by any of them; and particularly, I was more cautious of firing my Gun, least any of them being on the Island, should happen to hear of it; and it was therefore a very good Providence to me, that I had furnish'd my self with a tame Breed of Goats, that I needed not hunt any more about the Woods, or shoot at them; and if I did catch any of them after this, it was by Traps, and Snares, as I had done before; so that for two Years after this, I believe I never fir'd my Gun once off, though I never went out without it; and which was more, as I had sav'd three Pistols out of the Ship, I always carry'd them out with me, or at least two of them, sticking them in my Goat-skin Belt; also I furbish'd up one of the great Cutlashes, that I had out of the Ship, and made me a Belt to put it on also; so that I was now a most formidable Fellow to look at, when I went abroad, if you add to the former Description of my self, the Particular of two Pistols, and a great broad Sword, hanging at my Side in a Belt, but without a Scabbard.

可是，尽管如此，时间一久，我对食人生番的担心逐渐消失了，更何况我确信自己没有被他们发现的危险。所以，我又像以前那样泰然自若地过平生活了。所不同的是，我比以前更小心了，比以前更留心观察，唯恐被上岛的野人看见。特别是，我使用枪时更小心谨慎，以免给上岛的野人听到枪声。天幸我早就驯养了一群山羊，现在就再也不必到树林里去打猎了。这就是说，我用不着开枪了。后来，我也捉过一两只野山羊，但用的都是老办法，即用捕机和陷阱捉到的。因此，此后两年中，我记得我没有开过一次枪，虽然每次出门时还总是带着的。此外，我曾从破船上弄到三把手枪，每次出门，我总至少带上两把，挂在腰间的羊皮皮带上。我又把从船上拿下来的一把大腰刀磨快，系了一条带子挂在腰间。这样，我出门时，样子实在令人可怕。除了前面我描述过的那些装束外，又添了两支手枪和一把没有刀鞘的腰刀，挂在腰间的一条皮带上。

The gentleman himself was at that time on horseback, at a little distance from them; and hearing the gun go off, he immediately made towards the place, and discovered poor Tom; for the gamekeeper had leapt into the thickest part of the furze- brake , where he had happily concealed himself.

当时，那乡绅正好骑在马上，离他们还有一段距离。听到枪声，他立即催马赶来，当场抓住了倒霉的汤姆——而看猎场的已经窜进金雀花丛最深处，侥幸地躲藏起来了。

I scarce knew in what Manner to receive them; but found to draw our selves in a close Line was the only Way: so we form'd in a Moment: But that we might not have too much Interval, I order'd, that only every other Man should fire, and that the others who had not fir'd should stand ready to give them a second Volley immediately, if they continued to advance upon us, and that then those who had fir'd at first, should not pretend to load their Fusees again, but stand ready with every one a Pistol; for we were all arm'd with a Fusee, and a Pair of Pistols each Man; so we were by this Method able to fire six Volleys, half of us at a Time; however, at present we had no Necessity; for upon firing the first Volley, the Enemy made a full Stop, being terrify'd as well with the Noise, as with the Fire; four of them being shot into the Head, dropp'd, several others were wounded, and went bleeding off, as we could see by the Snow: I found they stopp'd, but did not immediately retreat; whereupon remembring that I had been told, that the fiercest Creatures were terrify'd at the Voice of a Man, I caus'd all our Company to hollow as loud as we could; and I found the Notion not altogether mistaken; for upon our Shout, they began to retire, and turn about; then I order'd a second Volley to be fir'd, in their Rear, which put them to the Gallop, and away they went to the Woods.

我简直不知道如何对付它们。结果，我认为最好的办法是我们互相靠拢，排成一行。于是，我们马上照此行事。为了不致使我们的火力中断太久，我下令只许一半人开枪，另一半人作好准备；如果第一排枪响过后，狼群继续向我们冲来，就开第二排枪；同时，在开第二排枪时，那开第一排枪的一半人，不要忙于装他们的长枪，而是应该抽出手枪，作好准备。因为我们每人身上都有一支长枪和两支手枪。用这种办法，我们可以连续开六排枪，每次有一半人开枪。然而，当时还没有必要这样做。放出第一排枪之后，我们的敌人就给枪声和火光吓坏了，马上停止了前进。有四条狼被我们打中头部，倒了下来；另外有几条受了伤，鲜血淋淋地跑掉了。这在雪地上可以看得一清二楚。我发现，狼群停止了攻击，但没有后退。这时，我忽然记起有人说过，就是最凶猛的野兽，听见人的声音也会害怕。于是我就叫大家拼命呐喊。这个办法果然很有效。我们一喊，狼群就开始后退，掉头跑掉了。我又下令朝它们背后开了一排枪。这样一来，它们才撒腿跑回树林里去了。这时，我们才有时间重新给枪装上弹药。

After panting for a few minutes, he turned in the direction where the fusillade was raging, lifted his left hand to a level with his nose and thrust it forward three times, as he slapped the back of his head with his right hand; an imperious gesture in which Parisian street-urchindom has condensed French irony, and which is evidently efficacious, since it has already lasted half a century.

喘过一阵气以后，他转向枪声紧密的地方，把左手举到鼻子的高度，向前连送三次，同时用右手敲着自己的后脑勺，这是巴黎的野孩们从法国式的讽刺中提炼出来的藐视一切的姿势，并且效果显然是良好的，因为它迄今已风行了半个世纪。

Then all is said, the tempest is loosed, stones rain down, a fusillade breaks forth, many precipitate themselves to the bottom of the bank, and pass the small arm of the Seine, now filled in, the timber-yards of the Isle Louviers, that vast citadel ready to hand, bristle with combatants, stakes are torn up, pistol-shots fired, a barricade begun, the young men who are thrust back pass the Austerlitz bridge with the hearse at a run, and the municipal guard, the carabineers rush up, the dragoons ply their swords, the crowd disperses in all directions, a rumor of war flies to all four quarters of Paris, men shout:"To arms!"

石块乱飞，枪声四起，许多人跳到河岸下，绕过现已填塞了的那段塞纳河湾，卢维耶岛，那个现成的巨大堡垒上聚满了战士，有的拔木桩，有的开手枪，一个街垒便形成了，被撵回的那些青年，挽着柩车，一路飞跑，穿过奥斯特里茨桥，向着保安警察队冲去，卡宾枪连冲来了，龙骑兵逢人便砍，群众向四面八方逃散，巴黎的四面八方都响起了投入战斗的吼声，人人喊着："拿起武器！"

You cross a line and there is no turnin back he told the world how he felt with the sound of a gat.

当你跨越这条界线的时候已经没有回头路了，他告诉全世界他对于枪声的感觉。

Likewise, a runner's chance of winning is better if he can "get the jump" on the others, be the first to move with the starting signal.

同样，如果一名赛跑运动员能比别人"起跑快"，发令枪声一响，就首先跑出，他取胜的机会就要大许多。

Breath, muscle contraction of the buttocks; arch body, as far as possible to hold his head, right leg straight towards the ceiling (peg-leg knee in order to avoid muscle tension).

呼气，收缩臀部肌肉；拱起身体，尽量抬起头来，右腿伸直朝向天花板（膝微屈，以避免肌肉紧张）。
