2、《夏洛的網(wǎng)》英文版精讀訓練（18）

對你來(lái)說(shuō)，初夏是什么感覺(jué)？你是否可以憑借記憶讓自己置身于初夏的氛圍中呢？溫暖而晴朗中聞到丁香的氣息，蜜蜂在開(kāi)花的蘋(píng)果樹(shù)間飛舞……

現在就欣賞一下E.B.White筆下農場(chǎng)的初夏吧：

The early summer days on a farm are the happiest and fairest days of the year. Lilacs bloom and make the air sweet, and then fade. Apple blossoms come with the lilacs, and the bees visit around among the apple trees. The days grow warm and soft. School ends, and children have time to play and to fish for trouts in the brook. Avery often brought a trout home in his pocket, warm and stiff and ready to be fried for supper.

這是《夏洛的網(wǎng)》第六章的第一小段。這寫(xiě)初夏的文字簡(jiǎn)潔中透露著(zhù)優(yōu)美，值得反復讀，甚至背誦。

Lilacs bloom and make the air sweet, and then fade.

這個(gè)句子只用了10個(gè)單詞，就生動(dòng)的描寫(xiě)了丁香花短暫而美好的一生。

閱讀經(jīng)典的時(shí)候，逐字逐句的讀，不放過(guò)似懂非懂的細節，就會(huì )有更多的收獲。比如在這一段中有fairest一詞，如果查字典會(huì )發(fā)現fair有很多詞意，在本句中是什么意思呢？

目前我的理解為“天氣晴朗的”。

全句的意思是：農場(chǎng)上初夏是一年中最快樂(lè )，最晴朗的日子。

Early summer days are a jubilee time for birds. In the fields, around the house, in the barn, in the woods, in the swamp---everywhere love and songs and nests and eggs.

love and songs and nests and eggs, 用七個(gè)單詞描繪鳥(niǎo)兒們從戀愛(ài)到生子的過(guò)程，精煉至極。

Everywhere you look is life; even the little ball of spit on the weed stalk, if you poke it apart, has a green worm inside it. And on the under side of the leaf of the potato vine are the bright orange eggs of the potato bug.

我們借助作者的眼睛看到了平時(shí)不曾留意之處蘊含的勃勃生機。仿佛能夠想象作者曾經(jīng)戳開(kāi)野草上的小球后發(fā)現綠色小蟲(chóng)，翻看土豆秧葉子背面后發(fā)現橙色蟲(chóng)卵時(shí)的興奮之情。

"What are you going to do with it?" continued Templeton, his little round beady eyes fixed on the goose.

老鼠那小小、圓圓、黑黑、亮亮的眼睛用“ beady ”來(lái)形容可謂傳神。

She laughed a tinkling little laugh. "But, my friends, if that ancient egg ever breaks, this barn will be untenable ."

“ untenable ”一詞，韋氏字典的解釋?zhuān)簄ot able to be occupied，不能居住。查過(guò)字典才知道，此處用詞非常準確。

That afternoon, when the wind had died down and the barnyard was quiet and warm, the grey goose led her seven goslings off the nest and out into the world.

那個(gè)午后，當風(fēng)已平息，谷倉小院溫暖而安靜，灰鵝媽媽帶著(zhù)她的七只寶寶離開(kāi)小巢，走進(jìn)這個(gè)世界。

附《夏洛的網(wǎng)》英文版第六章全文：

Chapter 6 Summer Days

The early summer days on a farm are the happiest and fairest days of the year. Lilacs bloom and make the air sweet, and then fade. Apple blossoms come with lilacs, and the bees visit around among the apple trees. The days grow warm and soft.School ends, and children have time to play and to fish for trouts in the brook. Avery often brought a trout home in his pocket, warm and stiff and ready to be fried for supper.

Now that school was over, Fern visited the barn almost every day, to sit quitely on her stool. The animals treated her as an equal. The sheep lay calmly at her feet.

Around the first of July, the work horses were hitched to the mowing machine, and Mr. Zuckerman climbed into the seat and drove into the field. All morning you could hear the rattle of the machine as it went round and round, while the tall grass fell down hehind the cutter bar in long green swathes. Next day, if there was no thunder shower , all hands would help rake and pitch and load , and the hay would be hauled to the barn in the high hay wagon, with Fern and Avery riding at the top of the load.  Then the hay would be hoisted, sweet and warm, into the big loft, until the whole barn seemed like a wonderful bed of timothy and clover. It was fine to jump in, and perfect to hide in. And sometimes Avery would find a little grass snake in the hay, and would add it to the other things in his pocket.

Early summer days are a jubilee time for birds. In the fields, around the house, in the barn, in the woods, in the swamp---everywhere love and songs and nests and eggs. From the edge of the woods, the white throaded sparrow (which must come all the way from Boston) calls, "Oh, Peabody, Peabody, Peabody!" On an apple bough, the phoebe teeters and wags its tail and says, "Phoebe, phoe-bee!" The song sparrow, who knows how brief and lovely life is, says, "Sweet, sweet, sweet interlude , sweet, sweet, sweet interlude." If you enter the barn, the swallows swoop down from their nests and scold. "Cheeky, cheeky!" they say.

In early summer there are plenty of things for a child to eat and drink and suck and chew. Dandelion stems are full of milk, clover heads are loaded with nectar, the Frigidaire is full of ice cold drinks. Everywhere you look is life; even the little ball of spit on the weed stalk, if you poke it apart, has a green worm inside it. And on the under side of the leaf of the potato vine are the bright orange eggs of the potato bug.

It was on a day in early summer that the goose eggs hatched. This was an important event in the barn cellar. Fern was there, sitting on her stool, when it happened.

Except for the goose herself, Charlotte was the first to know that the goslings had at last arrived. The goose knew a day in advance that they were coming---she could hear their weak voices calling from inside the egg. She knew that they were in a desperately cramped position inside the shell and were most anxious to break through and get out. So she sat quite still, and talked less than usual.

When the first gosling poked its grey-green head through the goose's feathers and looked around, Charlotte spied it and make the announcement.

"I am sure," she said, "that every one of us here will be gratified to learn that after four weeks of unremitting effort and patience on the part of our friend the goose, she now has something to show for it. The goslings have arrived. May I offer my sincere congratulations!"

"Thank you, thank you, thank you!" said the goose, nodding and bowing shamelessly.

"Thank you," said the gander.

"Congratulations!" shouted Wilbur. "How many goslings are there? I can only see one."

"There are seven," said the goose.

"Fine!" said Charlotte. "Seven is a lucky number."

"Luck had nothing to do with this," said the goose. " It was good mangement and hard work. "

At this point, Templeton showed his nose from his hiding place under Wilbur's trough. He glanced at Fern, then crept cautiously toward the goose, keeping close to the wall. Everyone watched him, for he was not well liked, not trusted.

"Look," he began in his sharp voice, "You say you have seven goslings. There were eight eggs, What happened to the other egg? Why didn't it hatch?"

"It's a dud, I gusee," said the goose.

"What are you going to do with it?" continued Templeton, his little round beady eyes fixed on the goose.

"You can have it," replied the goose. "Roll it away and add it to that nasty collection of yours."(Templeton had a habit of picking up unusual objects around the farm and storing them in his home. He saved everything.)

"Certainly-ertainly-ertainly," said the gander. "You may have the egg. But I'll tell you one thing, Templeton, if I ever catch you poking-oking-oking your ugly nose around our goslings, I'll give you the worst pounding a rat ever took." And the gander opened his strong wings and beat the air with them to show his power. He was strong and brave, but the truth is, both the goose and the gander were worried about Templeton. And with good reason. The rat had no morals , no conscience , no scruples , no consideration , no decency , no milk of rodent kindness , no compunctions , no higher feeling , no friendliness, no anything. He would kill a gosling if he could get away with it---the goose knew that. Everybody knew it.

With her broad bill the goose pushed the unhatched egg out of the nest, and the entire company watched in disgust while the rat rolled it away. Even Wilbur, who could eat almost anything, was appalled . "Imagine wanting a junky old rotten egg!" he muttered .

"A rat is a rat," said Charlotte. She laughed a tinkling little laugh. "But, my friends, if that ancient egg ever breaks, this barn will be untenable ."

"What's that mean?" asked Wilbur.

"It means nobody will be able to live here on account of the smell. A rotten egg is a regular stink bomb ."

"I won't break it," snarled Templeton. "I know what I'm doing. I handle stuff like this all the time."

He dissapeared into his tunnel, pushing the goose egg in front of him. He pushed and nudged till he succeeded in rolling it to his lair under the trough.

That afternoon, when the wind had died down and the barnyard was quiet and warm, the grey goose led her seven goslings off the nest and out into the world. Mr. Zucherman spied them when he came with Wilbur's supper.

"Well, hello there!" he said, smiling all over. "Let's see... one, two, three, four, five, six, seven. Seven baby geese. Now isn't that lovely!"
