Author :王书香Issue : 总第 143期Provenance :《中国青年》Date :1994.Nation :中国Translator :　　太多的顾及别人使别人腻味和自己疲累，重要的是保持一种敏锐的正义感，不要错过一生中不站出来就会终生后悔的时机。　　喝酒放荡是因为志向太高，退隐山林是因为现实感太强，勇敢常因为背过“怯懦”的名声，谦虚也许因为曾经骄傲。　　天真的人能得到他们的天真的保护，心直口快的人能得到他们心直口快的保护，只要他们确实使别人相信了他们的这种品质，造成了他们具有这种品质的名声。　　可怕的还不是孤独和寂寞，而是你不得不同你不愿交往的人打交道。　　有时存心浪费时间，有时放任自己，这不仅是因为止不住脱缰的马，而且是因为不这样就不能做事。一个人似乎在一种自责心情中做事效率最高，就像人类凭一种原罪意识来维系道德。　　婚姻和家庭的一个重要意义在于给人以一个沙漠中的绿洲，一个海洋中的小岛。当我们厌倦了那海...

An Accursed Raceby Elizabeth GaskellWe have our prejudices in England. Or, if that assertion offends anyof my readers, I will modify it: we have had our prejudices inEngland. We have tortured Jews; we have burnt Catholics andProtestants, to say nothing of a few witches and wizards. We havesatirized Puritans, and we have dressed-up Guys. But, after all, Ido not think we have been so bad as our Continental friends. To besure, our insular position has kept us free, to a certain degree,from the inroads of alien races; who, driven from one land of refuge,steal into another equally unwilling to receive them; and where, forlong centuries, their presence is barely endured, and no pains istaken to conceal the repugnance which the natives of "pure blood"...　

第 一 章　仗义解危　　　湖南衡山，古称南岳，山有七十二峰，最高者为祝融，高山海拔两千八百余尺，周围群峰罗列，气象万千。附近名胜古迹特多，四季景物各殊，夏秋两季，游人极众，尤以周围数百里，朝山还愿的人极多，斋戒沐浴，三步一礼，五步一拜，诚惶诚恐，以还所许神愿，俾求福消灾。这原是农业社会及神权时代所余习俗特征，不足为怪。　　山下有一小镇，镇以岳名，范围不大，但热闹非常，酒店。香褚店、客寓、及土产店特多，当地民风淳朴，交易极公平，对过客态度和善可亲，从镇入山，多系石级道路，沿途苍松翠柏，异草繁花，极尽一时之娇，山上寺观极多，以上峰寺为最大，里面有和尚百余人。　　时为南宋康王时期，虽中原鼎沸，遍地马乱兵荒，但南部较为安定，南岳名胜古迹，更能吸引不少游人。上峰寺在南天门附近，寺中主持方丈，法名一尘上人，生得方头大面，体格极为魁伟，但态度慈祥静穆，望之令人生敬畏之思。上人年...　

Count Bunkerby J. Storer CloustenBEING A BALD YET VERACIOUS CHRONICLE CONTAINING SOME FURTHER PARTICULARS OF TWO GENTLEMEN WHOSE PREVIOUS CAREERS WERE TOUCHED UPON IN A TOME ENTITLED "THE LUNATIC AT LARGE"BY J. STORER CLOUSTONCOUNT BUNKERCHAPTER IIt is only with the politest affectation of interest, as a rule, that English Society learns the arrival in its midst of an ordinary Continental nobleman; but the announcement that the Baron Rudolph von Blitzenberg had been appointed attache to the German embassy at the Court of St. James was unquestionably received with a certain flutter of excitement. That his estates were as vast as an average English county, and his ancestry among the noblest in Europe, would not alone perhaps have arrested the attention of the para...　

她小跑经过客厅去卫生间，边跑边把鞋子套在脚上。“不应该是这样啊，”她想，她把束着的金色长发解散，一只手飞快地梳理着，另一只手同时刷牙。当那个最后最关键的问题放在她面前时，她本应该很轻松愉快、无忧无虑、充满期待的，脑子里应该没有半点分心的杂念。纽约州律师资格考试像块学生沉重的石头，压在她的心里，让她整天疲于奔命，几乎没怎么睡觉，与其他焦急的考生在一起参加强化班和学习小组。她吐出漱口水，喷上香奈尔5号香水，一路奔跑着出了门。四分钟。她还有四分钟的时间，如果不抓紧她就只能赶下一班7点22分那趟火车了，这样，她很可能就看不到歌剧的开头。她脑中闪过一副景象：迈克尔打扮得衣冠楚楚，满脸不耐烦地等候在美琪大剧院门口，他手捧玫瑰花，衣兜里揣着小盒子，不时抬腕看表。“事情不应该是这样的，她应该有足够的时间做充分的准备。”她匆匆忙忙地穿过院子去开车，手指摸索着把顺手从床头几上拿走的耳环...　

　　开篇　　很多读者朋友不太了解我，为了让大家更明白我后面所说的那些事情的来龙去脉，我先给大家做个自我介绍。　　我姓“唐”，名“果强”，朋友们都叫我小强。　　我出生在一个贫困的家庭，虽然唐朝是当时世界上唯一的霸权主义国家，但是我的家庭却仍然是低保家庭，因为——我的父母都下岗了。　　到了我八岁那年，我家再也养不起我，我爸要把我送到寺庙里去做和尚。　　对此，我极为不满。我爸自己爽过了，每晚和我母亲做运动，号称“一夜八次郎”，却让我做和尚。我不干。　　我爸说，你傻啊？你没听高僧都说，“空即是色，色即是空”吗？所谓遁入空门，实际上就是遁入“色”门。“美眉腿上坐，佛祖心中留。”每日不用干活，就不愁吃喝，还可观赏每日前来膜拜的各色美女，天下还有比这更好的职业吗？我要不是你妈要死要活以上吊相威胁，我早就遁入“色”门了。于是，我就被骗入了佛门。　　之所以说“骗”，是因为我后来发...　

STORIESSTORIESBY ENGLISH AUTHORS IN ITALY1- Page 2-STORIESA FAITHFUL RETAINERBY JAMES PAYNWhen I lived in the country,which was a long time ago,our nearestneighbours were the Luscombes. They were very great personages in thecountry indeed, and the family were greatly "respected"; though not, so faras I could discern, for any particular reason, except from their having beenthere for several generations. People are supposed to improve, like wine,from keepingeven if they are rather "ordinary" at starting; and the...　

The Story of My Heartby Richard JefferiesAN AUTOBIOGRAPHYCHAPTER ITHE story of my heart commences seventeen years ago. In the glowof youth there were times every now and then when I felt thenecessity of a strong inspiration of soulthought. My heart wasdusty, parched for want of the rain of deep feeling; my mind arid and dry,for there is a dust which settles on the heart as well as that which fallson a ledge. It is injurious to the mind as well as to the body to be alwaysin one place and always surrounded by the same circumstances. A species ofthick clothing slowly grows about the mind, the pores are choked, littlehabits become a part of existence, and by degrees the mind is inclosed in ahusk.When this began to form I felt eager to escape from it, to throw off t...　

古语说：往事不远，可以洞鉴。（1）毛泽东一次艰难的决策，战争的终点又回到了战争的起点。美国占领全朝鲜的战略目标没有实现。二次战役一度到了37度线。（2）一次正确的战略决策赢得了朝鲜半岛半个多世纪的和平。（3）主要价值是填补了朝鲜战争研究的空白，在众多研究朝鲜战争的作品中具有自己独立的品质。从宏观方面第一次介绍了中国共产党党中央和毛泽东作出出兵抗美援朝战略决策的反复曲折复杂的具体运筹过程。接到金日成和斯大林的电报后，毛泽东在10月2日，有一个电报，准备出兵。同一天，会后，见了罗申，提出了不能出兵的意见。5日，彭德怀支持后，有决定出兵。但未马上告诉斯大林。8日，周恩来去苏联。表示不能出兵。8月13日，告诉周恩来要出兵。按照日期准确地理清了中央的主要活动日程表。具体而详地披露了毛泽东与周恩来、彭德怀等领导制定我军作战方案的生动细节（初战必胜）。...　

《世界轻武器集锦》作者：木白冲锋枪是一种经济实用的单人近战武器，特别是轻型或微型冲锋枪由于火力猛烈、使用灵活，很适合于冲锋或反冲锋，以及丛林、战壕、城市巷战等短兵相接的战斗。因此，目前冲锋枪作为枪族中的重要成员之一，对于步兵、伞兵、侦察兵、边防部队及警卫部队等来说，仍然是一种不可缺少的个人自卫和战斗武器。早在1915年，为了适应第一次世界大战中阵地战的需要，意大利人B·A·列维里设计了一种发射9MM手枪弹的双管连发枪，从而奠定了现代冲锋枪的基础。1918年，德国人Ｈ·斯迈塞尔设计的第一支适于单兵使用的伯格曼MP18式9MM冲锋枪问世，同年，其改进型MP18I式冲锋枪正式装备德国陆军使用20-30年代是冲锋枪初步发展时期。在这一时期，许多国家对冲锋枪的战术作用认识不足，因而产品型号不多。有代表性的冲锋枪包括意大利的维拉· 佩罗萨和伯莱塔M1938A式，德国的伯格曼MP18I式和MP38式，西班牙的MX1935式和T·...

　　大学教授隐秘情感剖白：非色 作者：尔雅　　《非色》的女人和性(1)　　在阅读中，我一直期待着，期待作者在最后关头告诉我们：其实余楠的故事是他杜撰的，从来就没有余楠这个人，式牧在孤独无助中为自己创造了那个意念中的女人；或者说式牧与余楠的灵与肉的完美结合只是一个梦，一个幻觉或错觉。（那是一种彻底的虚无与绝望，那是一种毁灭后的快感。）然而没有。尔雅是善良而又温厚的，在冷峻和凄凉中，他为我们留下了希望，犹如鲁迅先生在夏瑜坟前留下的花圈，犹如画家画在寒风里的那片树叶。在《南方》中，尔雅坚持希望那个叫谢彩霞的妓女接到"我"的电话后哭了。　　式牧与多个女子发生过关系，精神的、肉体的，他用心面对每一个女人，小心呵护她们，生怕自己一个不小心就会伤害她们，阿三给予余楠的伤痛成为式牧内心的隐痛，挥之不去，使他在与女人交往时谨慎异常。进入他视野的女人都与余楠有着某种生命的契合，要么身形，...　

第 一 章　　　三月。黑龙江，呼玛河畔的永顺楼。　　三月若在江南，已是草长莺飞，桃李争艳的季节。在北国，却是大地封冻，触眼一片银芒。寒风如利刃，冰冻的大地如砧板，行走其间的人兽则成了任凭宰割的鱼肉。　　提到呼玛河，只要熟悉黑龙江流域地理概况的人都会想到亮闪闪的黄金。黑龙江流域是我国金矿蕴藏最丰富的地区；提到永顺楼这个不大不小的镇集，大家一定会想到‘怀风堂’。　　是药铺？不是，是金银兑换店？也不是，是酒坊？那更离谱。‘怀风堂’到底是啥玩意见？　　原来是个印铺，也就是刻图章的。刻图章的不是什么了不起的手艺，又是开在这个不算太大的镇集上，有啥稀奇？这里头可就大有文章啦！如今在‘怀风堂’掌刀的曾子厚才不过三十刚冒头，只要远离永顺楼十里地，谁都不知道他这个名字。可是他的祖父曾怀风可就大有名头了，满清最后一个皇帝所掌的玉玺就是出自他老人家的手笔。你说，‘怀风堂’的名号是不是响...　

The Purseby Honore de BalzacTranslated by Clara BellTo Sofka"Have you observed, mademoiselle, that the painters andsculptors of the Middle Ages, when they placed two figures inadoration, one on each side of a fair Saint, never failed togive them a family likeness? When you here see your name amongthose that are dear to me, and under whose auspices I place myworks, remember that touching harmony, and you will see inthis not so much an act of homage as an expression of thebrotherly affection of your devoted servant,"DE BALZAC."For souls to whom effusiveness is easy there is a delicious hourthat falls when it is not yet night, but is no longer day; the...　

The Antiquities of the Jews (1)by Flavius JosephusTranslated by William WhistonPREFACE.1. Those who undertake to write histories, do not, I perceive,take that trouble on one and the same account, but for manyreasons, and those such as are very different one from another.For some of them apply themselves to this part of learning toshow their skill in composition, and that they may thereinacquire a reputation for speaking finely: others of them thereare, who write histories in order to gratify those that happen tobe concerned in them, and on that account have spared no pains,but rather gone beyond their own abilities in the performance:but others there are, who, of necessity and by force, are drivento write history, because they are concerned in the facts, and so...
