Part 1: 那一年，我们好像很有钱 It seems as if we were very rich that year.（虚拟语气）这是题目？ 那一年，我们好像很有钱 That year, we seem to be very rich. 走进宿舍楼的时候会买一包爸爸都舍不得抽的烟 When going into the dormitory, we bought a packet of cigarettes that father was reluctant to buy. 那一年，我们好像很有钱 That year, we seem to be very rich. 你会在柜台挑上半天的化妆品 We would spend half a day to pick and choose cosmetics in front of the counter. 可妈妈用的最多的“化妆品”，却是年复一年陪伴着她的透明皂和洗涤灵 However, mom’s most commonly used toiletries are the transparent soap and dish soap along with her year by year. 那一年，我们好像很有钱 That year, we seem to be very rich. 冷天出门就叫出租车 We went out in the cold by taxi. 而爸妈上班却顶着凛冽的寒风骑着自行车 But, father and mother bicycle to work even in the piercing wind. 那一年，我们好像很有钱 That year, we seem to be very rich. 一个月的电话费抵得上爸妈仅有电话、短信功能的手机 One month's phone bill is worth parents’ mobile phones only with basic telephone and SMS functions. |

We sure had money that year: Everyone bought at the dorm entrance cigarettes our dads would never spurge on We spent hours putting on makeup when our moms only had brown soap and detergent We sure had money that year: Always traveled by taxi in cold weather, when mom and dad would paddle against howling winds to work We sure had money that year: Racked up monthly calling charges more than the cost of mom and dad's only SMS cell phone That SMS cell phone was so simple, yet so reliable when mom and dad wanted to hear from us Their constant reminders were never well received Only when money ran short would we call mom and dad - to ask for more We sure had money that year: Gambled liked a whale, be it bridge or Majiang Who cared what our parents had for breakfast, lunch and dinner? who cared if our parents never saw any gift from us, so long as our sweethearts were well cared for around the clock? We sure had money that year: Attended each other's birthday parties but forgot to phone home on our own mom's and dad's birthdays When did we learn to sleep in til noon, then call for hotel room service to send up food while we were all still in bed? When did we give up on our childhood dreams of becoming a hero and focused on being pesky hotel guests? 下一半心情好再试... |

高亢cher: 辛苦 mac194: - 这还不算什么,带锯粗切而己,因为是韵文,真麻烦的在后面... - 平仄押韵: 己略分段,待查 "Rhyming Dictionary" 工具书 - "奢侈" 下为 "派场",可用 "We sure lived large" 但难和后段 "真没钱...真希望未来有钱..." 相映 - 口气 / 用字: - 当事人 We 自己回忆悔过更恳切,所以不用 "It seemed..." 开头 - compensate 不像其他字常用,而且多涉及金钱,贬低悔过原意 - "make up for" 不仅简单,含义较广,更能暴露 "[想彻底]补偿" 的原意 - mom and dad 比 parents 更亲切 - "让" 是 "Let" , "Make" 是 "逼" !!.. "Clean it up!" "Make me!" "除非你逼我!" - 诸如此类的细密问题很多,足以用来测试回答者的英语程度,何况还是韵文...所以说是很难 - 例如: "大学之路 承载了多少父母的期待" "Afford" 绝对不行,问题是如何纠正 ? 路非人,不好用 "Shoulder" [动词] "承重" = "load bearing" 可试 "bore..." 但 "upheld..." 兼顾 "承" "撑"... 似乎更达意 等等! "大学之路" 强调旅程 "journey" 想想 "bolstered" 好像比 "upheld" 更好一点... |
