硬草帽

I was watching the curiously different motions of the two men, the young thin one in bright blue trousers, the elderly fat one in shabby black trousers that stick out in front, the different amount of effort in their mowing , the lack of grace in the elderly one, his jerky advance, the unpleasant effect of the new "boater" on his head----and I tried to interest the little lady.

我注视着着两个人不同得令人感到荒谬的动作，那清瘦的年轻人穿着天蓝色的裤子，发胖的年长者穿着显出大肚子的破黑裤子，两个人割草时所用的力气不一样，年长的一位动作缺乏美感，前进的步子也不平稳，他头上的那顶新的硬边草帽也使人产生不快----我试图引起小个子女士的兴趣。

But it is intuition which makes me feel the uncanny glassiness of the lake this afternoon, the sulkiness of the mountains, the vividness of near green in thunder-sun, the young man in bright blue trousers lightly tossing the grass form the scythe, the elderly man in a boater stiffly shoving his scythe-strokes, both of them sweating in the silence of the intense light.

但是，是直觉要我感受湖泊在今天下午的神奇般明净，群山的阴沉，有太阳的雷声中呈现出的主动的，近乎于绿色的颜色，那个穿着天蓝色裤子的年轻人用长镰轻松地割着草，还有那个戴着硬边草帽的年长者笨拙地挥动着长镰，在强烈的光线和寂静中，两个人都在流汗。

And I was so pleasantly musing over the two men mowing: the young one, with long legs in bright blue cotton trousers, and with bare black head, swinging so lightly downhill, and the other, in black trousers, rather stout in front , and wearing a new straw hat of the boater variety, coming rather stiffly after, crunching the end of his stroke with a certain violent effort.

可我刚刚还在愉快地望着两个割草人若有所思：年轻的一位生着一双长腿，穿着天蓝色的棉布裤子，黑黑的头发上没戴帽子，在山脚下轻松地来回摇摆着长镰；另一位穿着黑裤子，前面肚子挺壮实，戴着一顶新的硬边草帽，呆板板地走在后面，颇费力气地用镰刀尖嘎吱嘎吱地割着草。

Her skirt is trim, A-line, and ankle length. Her matching jacket is hip length with a notched collar, nipped in slightly at the waist. Her blouse is plain, her belt wide; her hat is a straw boater pinned upon one side, like a Musketeer.

她的裙子上窄下宽呈A字型，长度仅及脚踝，她搭配的短上衣刚好遮住臀部，并在腰部位置稍微收紧，衣领则是大大外翻的；她的衬衣式样简明，她的腰带宽阔；她还戴着一顶斜别向一边的硬草帽，看起来十足一个火枪手。

I want to look at the mowers, and wonder why fatness, elderliness, and black trousers should inevitably wear a new straw hat of the boater variety, move in stiff jerks, shove the end of the scythe-strokes with a certain violence, and win my hearty disapproval, as contrasted with young long thinness, bright blue cotton trousers, a bare black head, and a pretty lifting movement at the end of the scythe-stroke.

我想看割草人，想知道为什么这个胖子、长者和黑裤子竟非要戴一顶硬边的新草帽，而且动作不灵活，颇废气力地用长镰的刀尖割草；而年轻人又高又瘦，身着天蓝色棉布裤子，一头黑发，不戴草帽，用长镰割草时，刀尖优美地向上一提，使我在对照之下对年长者产生由衷的不赞同。

Smeltings' boys wore maroon tailcoats, orange knickerbockers, and flat straw hats called boaters.

He showed, too—surprisingly for a big, shambling man who liked boaters and loud ties—a capacity to be subtle, even invisible, in the making of argument.

他喜爱硬草帽以及loud tie，是一个步履蹒跚的大块头，但奇怪的是在争论的过程中他却非常低调，几乎成了隐身人。

Neither the killing of Mr Zarqawi nor any breakthrough on the political front will stop the insurgency and the fratricidal murders in their tracks.

In fact,I've got him on the satellite mobile right now.
