篇一： 典英 美文经 语
Passing through the Atlanta airport one morning, I caught one of those trains
that take travelers from the main terminal to their boarding gates. Free,
sterile and impersonal, the trains run back and forth all day long. Not many
people consider them fun, but on this Saturday I heard laughter.
一天早晨去亚特兰大机场，我看见一辆列车载载着旅客从航空集散站抵达登记处。这类免
费列车每天单调、无味地往返其间，没人觉得有趣。但这个周六我却听到了笑声。
At the front of the first car – looking out the window at the track that lay
ahead – were a man and his son.
在头节车厢的最前面，坐着一个男人和他的儿子。他们正透过窗户观赏着一直往前延伸的
铁道。
We had just stopped to let off passengers, and the doors wee closing again.
“Here we go! Hold on to me tight!” the father said. The boy, about five
years old, made sounds of sheer delight.
“我们停下来等候旅客下车，之后，车门关上了。 走吧。拉紧我!”父亲说。儿子大约 5岁
吧，一路喜不自禁。
I know we’re supposed to avoid making racial distinctions these days, so I
hope no one will mind if I mention that most people on the train were white,
dressed for business trips or vacations – and that the father and son were
black, dressed in clothes that were just about as inexpensive as you can buy.
车上坐的多半是衣冠楚楚，或公差或度假的白人，只有这对黑人父子穿着朴素简单。我知
道如今我们不该种族歧视，我希望我这样描述没人介意。
“Look out there!” the father said to his son. “See that pilot? I bet he’s
walking to his plane.” The son craned his neck to look.
“快看!” “父亲对儿子说： 看见那位飞行员了吗?”我敢肯定是去开飞机的。 儿子伸长脖子
看。
As I got off, I remembered some thing I’d wanted to buy in the terminal. I
was early for my flight, so I decided to go back.
下了车后我突然想起还得在航空集散站买点东西。离起飞时间还早，于是我决定再乘车回
去。
I did – and just as I was about to reboard the train for my gate, I saw that
the man and his son had returned too. I realized then that they hadn’t been
heading for a flight, but had just been riding the shuttle.
正准备上车的时候，我看到那对父子也来了。我意识到他们不是来乘飞机的，而是特意来
坐区间列车的。
“I want to ride some more!”
“我还想再坐一会儿!”
“More?” the father said, mock-exasperated but clearly pleased. “You’re not
tired?”
“再坐一会儿!” “父亲嗔怪模仿着儿子的语调， 你还不累?”
“This is fun!” his son said.
“真好玩!”儿子说。
“All right,” the father replied, and when a door opened we all got on.
“”好吧， 父 。 开了，我 都上了 。亲说 车门 们 车
There are parents who can afford to send their children to Europe or
Disneyland, and the children turn out rotten. There are parents who live in
million-dollar houses and give their children cars and swimming pools, yet
something goes wrong. Rich and poor, black and white, so much goes wrong so
often.
我们很多父母有能力送孩子去欧洲，去狄斯尼乐园，可孩子还是堕落了。很多父母住豪华
别墅，孩子有车有游泳池，可孩子还是学坏了。富人、穷人，黑人、白人，那么多人都轻
易学坏了。
“Where are all these people going, Daddy?” the son asked.
“爸爸，这些人去哪?”儿子问。
“All over the world,” came the reply. The other people in the air port wee
leaving for distant destinations or arriving at the ends of their journeys.
The father and son, though, were just riding this shuttle together, making it
exciting, sharing each other’s company.
“”世界各地。 父亲回答。机场来来往往的人流或准备远行，或刚刚归来。这对父子却在
乘坐区间列车，享受着父子间的亲情与陪伴。
So many troubles in this country – crime, the murderous soullessness that
seems to be taking over the lives of many young people, the lowering of
educational standards, the increase in vile obscenities in public, the
disappearance of simple civility. So many questions about what to do. Here was
a father who cared about spending the day with his son and who had come up
with this plan on a Saturday morning.
我们正面临许多问题：犯罪、越来越多的年轻人变得冷漠无情、文化水平下降、公共场合
卑劣猥亵上升、起码的礼貌丧失，等等。我们有那么多的问题要处理。而这里。这位父亲
却很在意花上一天陪伴儿子，并在这样一个星期六的早上，提出这个计划。
The answer is so simple: parents who care enough to spend time, and to pay
attention and to try their best. It doesn’t cost a cent, yet it is the most
valuable thing in the world.
其实答案很简单：父母愿意花时间，愿意关注，愿意尽心尽职。这不要花一分钱，可这却
是世间无价之宝。
The train picked up speed, and the father pointed something out, and the boy
laughed again.
火车加速了。父亲指着窗外说着什么，儿子直乐。
篇二： 典英 美文经 语
Dear Arizona,
亲爱的亚利桑那：
My brother is so lucky. Good stuff is always happening to him. Do you believe
in luck? And if so, how can I get more of it?
我的兄弟运气特别好，常有好事发生在他身上。你相信运气吗？如果真有运气，我怎样才
能得到更多一些呢？
—Looking for Luck in Louisiana
——身在路易斯安那寻找好运的人
Dear Looking,
亲爱的运气寻觅者：
I was eating breakfast with one hand, petting my cat, Cow, with the other, and
reading the back of the cereal box, when—“YOUCH!” I screamed. “Why’d you
pinch me?”
“ ”我当时正一手吃早餐，一手爱抚着我的猫 牛牛 ，同时在看燕麦片盒子背面的信息。就在
——“ ” “ ”这时 哎呦 ，我尖叫起来， 你干嘛捏我？
“You’re not wearing green,” said my little brother, Tex. “Everyone knows
you get pinched if you don’t wear green on Saint Patrick’s Day!”
