【文章內(nèi)容簡介】
達(dá)菲不是一朵紅玫瑰或一顆亮晶晶的心。我送給你一棵蔥頭。那是一輪包在牛皮紙里的月亮。保證會有光,就好像愛之溫存的寬衣解帶。給。它會讓你淚眼模糊,像愛人那樣。它會把你的面影變成 一張發(fā)虛的哀傷照片。我努力做到真實。不是一張漂亮的賀卡或伴隨的親吻。我送給你一棵蔥頭。它那兇猛的親吻會留在你的嘴唇上,霸道獨占而忠心耿耿 像我們一樣,只要我們活著。拿去吧。它那白金圈會干縮成結(jié)婚戒指,如果你喜歡的話。要命!它的氣味會緊緊粘在你手指上,緊緊粘在你的刀上。(傅浩譯)他冀求天國的錦緞 威 巴 葉芝假如我有天國的錦繡綢緞,那用金色銀色的光線織就,黑夜、白天、黎明和傍晚,湛藍(lán)、灰暗和漆黑的錦繡,我就把那錦緞鋪在你腳下: 可我,一貧如洗,只有夢; 我把我的夢鋪在了你腳下; 輕點,因為你踏著我的夢。(傅浩譯)Reading across cultures愛情是生活的原動力時代在變化?,F(xiàn)在,人們即使彼此相隔千萬里、文化背景不同,也可以通過網(wǎng)絡(luò)約會,相識相愛。在新千年里,世界越變越小,地方性的傳統(tǒng)能有多少得以保留下來呢?我們決定對亞歐四國的年輕人展開調(diào)查,了解他們是如何尋覓愛情,如何最終找到心上人的。我們發(fā)現(xiàn),雖然互聯(lián)網(wǎng)和信息技術(shù)改變了各地的生活方式,但許多地方的人仍然以傳統(tǒng)的方式談情說愛。印度擁有世界上最美妙動人的愛情詩篇,也擁有世界上最著名的愛情紀(jì)念碑——皇帝沙賈汗為紀(jì)念其波斯愛妃而建的泰姬陵。但是,在印度,95% 的婚姻仍然是由家庭安排的?,F(xiàn)在,很多年輕人用手機安排約會。一些印度詩人擔(dān)心,寫情書的傳統(tǒng)將日漸消亡。為了引起人們對這個問題的關(guān)注,他們組織了一個情人節(jié)情書大賽。另一個亞洲國家日本擁有不同的文化傳統(tǒng),依靠“媒人”來安排婚事。家中如有待娶的兒子或待嫁的女兒,家長會與媒人接觸,由媒人出面安排未來的新人相親(MiAi)。古時候,相親是一種禮節(jié)。如果相親后男方留下一把扇子,這表示男方對女方感興趣,婚禮也就隨后舉行——女方?jīng)]有決定權(quán)?,F(xiàn)在,相親活動依然存在,但是,如果雙方不投緣,就不會再見面了。在歐洲,有些戀愛傳統(tǒng)依然留存,盡管隨著時間的推移發(fā)生了變化。在威爾士,青年男子會給意中人一把自制的木勺。每把木勺的柄端都刻著一樣?xùn)|西,比如,鐘代表婚禮,心代表“我愛你”。女方可以收下木勺,也可以把木勺還給男方,表示自己對對方不感興趣?,F(xiàn)在,愛情木勺只是作為旅游紀(jì)念品出售。不過,年輕人仍然可以給意中人寄上繪有愛情木勺的情人節(jié)卡片,表白自己的感情。傳統(tǒng)的戀愛方式并未全部過時。幾年前,在意大利有一部很叫座的電影,影片中一對年輕的情侶將一把鎖鎖在羅馬的一座橋上,然后將鑰匙扔到河中,以此承諾對彼此忠貞不渝。這種做法很快流傳到其他地方?,F(xiàn)在,許多橋上都掛著“愛鎖”。當(dāng)羅馬市長決定取掉這些鎖時,他遭到了普遍的反對。愛鎖因此得以保留下來,繼續(xù)向人們展示著愛情是生活的原動力。傳統(tǒng)的戀愛方式也是推動生活的 力量。第二篇:新標(biāo)準(zhǔn)大學(xué)英語綜合教程1—6單元課后翻譯答案他們對業(yè)余劇社的介紹給索菲留下了深刻的印象,于是她就報了名。(Amateur Dramatics。sign up for)Their introduction of Amateur Dramatics impressed Sophie so much that she signed up for
