Silence is not golden

People always said that “silence is golden ”.Even in many places it is written in calligraphy and framed then stuck on wall.People use it to remind themselves: more words and more mistakes;less talks ,more actions;misfortunes issue from the mouth;spend more time on practical matters.In short, that means when you can keep silence then speak no word.While Martin Luther King, Jr once said:“ We will have to repent in this

generation not merely for the hateful words and actions of the bad people but for the appalling silence of the good people.Human progress never rolls in on wheels inevitably.''

In the history,the collective silence led to the numerous sadness.During the second world war, although most of Germany ordinary people had indistinctly realized the ending of those Jewry who had been pushed onto the train, they kept silent for that issues and still bought bread and milk, still went to work in the morning and went home in the night, still tenderly said hello to their neighbors as usual.Today, in China, after friends costly dine together, the person who work in public office ask a invoice then there is nobody to investigate who is the people pay for that deal meal at last.In English ,”Elephant in the room“ is an metaphorical idiom for an obvious truth that is either being ignored or going unaddressed.The idiomatic expression also applies to an obvious problem or risk no one wants to discuss.Eviatar Zerubavel's said that is the thing we ”know but realized that we shouldn't know.“

In a blind dating program, all honored guests were signifying the inappropriate places that someone who failed to take the girl: which sentence he should not say or which facial expression was not property in confusion, while there was no one ever mentioned that the really problem was his occupation.It is hard for some girls to

accept the person whose job is a chef or a shoemaker as her dating person.At this moment, all the people knew the truth, but there was no one courage enough to speak it out.There was an elephant in the TV.Sometimes, silence maybe stem from kindness and politeness: we don't talk aboutthe state of illness before our friends or relatives' who really sickness heavily;and similarly, we neglected the stammerer's stammer when talking with them.But sometimes other, silence maybe stem from recreancy.People scared to power,scared to overpress, scared to lost the chance that they could promote, scared to lost their house and car.Silence is become a way people to protect themselves.Some people overlook the existence of obvious problems to satisfied themselves' benefits, some people regard silence as a principle to live on.Actually, sometimes, what people really scared is not the loss of their benefit or physical hurt, but loneness in spiritual separated by the people who contact with them.Silence is a way to keep away from this lone situation and find the sense of safety.Therefore, it is more difficult to break this silent situation when there are more people to keep silence---when more and more people are caught in the eddy of silence, more and more power need to break away from it.The prophet in history, they always had sad destiny.For the person who first shorted that ”their is an elephant in the room“, people will not see with his finger's direction whether their is an elephant, but reproach him why he ruins their dream.What's worse, they become madness because the person's courage indicate that how recreance they are.They may blamed him that what's the hell you shorted so loudly? You are just play to the gallery,you are just show off , you are the stupid man who not see through the situation and you are really an insane.”Silence like a cancer cell ,division and growth“.The elephant is growing bigger when people embraced each other friendly.The author who wrote The elephant in the room told us that with the time go by and the elephant grow up, there are more possibilities to puncture the seeming.Because as bigger as the elephant , as higher as the cost to cover it.What's more, more witnesses also mean that more possibilities to exist the turncoat.At last, the little child's grumble that ”the king wear nothing" will possibly bring the truth in light.After second world war, most of the Germany open their eyes, the sadness is that during the time they close and open their eyes, there are unnumbered people died due to some other people's silence.It is not strange to refuse to say a word, because phonation is not only need courage but means to response to it.It means that we are going to search the solution to deal with it when we talk about the Global warming, means that we are possibly going tochose the life without car, or as less as possible to use heater and air conditioner, or saving water when we use it.For this issues, silence is golden.While the elephant will never vanished even you never talk about it.You can deliberately avoid talking about it, even don't remind this don't talk, but the global warming is going on.Now, look at the silence in our daily life, people are used to use political or social restraint to defend for themselves' silence, but neglected the truth that it is their silence make things worse.Yes , we can block our ears and close our mouth, but as soon as there is an elephant in the room, it is very easy for it to lift its feet up and ruin our all delusion.“沉默是金。”人們常說。這話還被寫成大字，鑲在框里，貼在很多墻壁上，人們用它來告誡自己：言多必失，少說多做，禍從口出，實干興邦，空談誤國?？傊荛]嘴的時候就閉嘴。

但是馬丁?路德金說過：“歷史將記取的社會轉變的最大悲劇不是壞人的宣泄，而是好人的沉默?！倍鹌陂g，普通的國人已經隱隱知道那些被推上火車的猶太人的下場，但是他們對此不聞不問，照常買牛奶面包，上班下班，并對迎面走來的鄰居溫和地問候“早上好”。

今天的中國，朋友們聚餐，點龍蝦魚翅燕窩，結賬的時候，在座的人中有公職的的那位“要張發票”，這上萬塊錢的餐費最后攤到了誰的頭上，不會有人追問。

“房間里的大象”在英文里，意指所以那些觸目驚心的存在卻被明目張膽的忽略甚至否定的事實或者感受，用作者澤魯巴維爾的話來說，就是那些“我們知

道，但是我們清楚地知道我們不該知道”的事情。

在一個電視相親節目中，嘉賓們七嘴八舌地分析某個相親失敗的男人那句話說錯了、哪個表情不當，卻絕口不談他的職業是廚師或者鞋匠的事實，這時候，電視屏幕里有一只大象。高貴是高貴者的墓志銘，沉默是沉默者的通行證有些時候，沉默或許源于善意和禮貌：比如在罹患重疾的親友面前，我們不愿談起他們的病情；比如和一個口吃的人聊天，我們假裝注意不到他的口吃。但是另一些時候，沉默源于怯懦。人們害怕權力，害怕高壓，害怕失去神官發財的的機會，害怕失去房子和車子，于是，沉默成了自我保護的機制。高貴是高貴者的墓志銘，沉默是沉默者的通行證。另一些時候，人們所恐懼的甚至不是利益上的損失或者身體上的暴力傷害，而是精神上被自己的同類群體孤立。出于對歸屬感的依戀，他們通過沉默來實現溫暖的“合群”。

所以，沉默的人越多，打破沉默就越難---因為當越來越多的人卷入沉默的漩渦，從這個漩渦中掙脫出來的需要的力氣就越大。歷史上的先知，往往命運悲慘。面對以第一個站出來喊“屋子里的大象”的人，人們往往不會順著他的手指去看有沒有一只大象，而是怒斥他為什么吵醒了自己的好覺。甚至，他們會因為那個人的勇氣映照出自己的怯懦而惱羞成怒，你那么大喊大叫干什么？嘩眾取寵、愛出風頭、不識時務、神經病?！俺聊绨┘毎惴至焉L”，房間里的大象就這樣在“合群”的人們的相互擁抱中越長越大。好在隨著大象越長越大，作者指出，他被戳穿的可能性也隨之加大——因為隨著大象越來越大，掩蓋著只大象所花費的成本也越來越高，并且，目擊者的增多也意味著出現“叛徒”的可能性在增大。最終，小孩小聲的一句嘟囔“皇帝沒穿衣服”就可能使這只充了氣的大象迅速的癟下去?！岸稹敝?，德國人紛紛睜開閉上的眼睛，可惜，在眾人眼睛的一睜一閉之間，已經有無數人成了沉默的祭品。

拒絕發生并不奇怪，因為發生不但需要勇氣，也意味著承擔 談論全球變暖以為著我們要去尋找解決問題的方案，意味著我們可能要選擇不買車、少開暖氣和空調、可以節約用水。所以，沉默是金。但是大象并不會因為你不談論它而消失，你可以不談論它，甚至不談論這種“不談論”，但是全球還會繼續變暖......直視我們生活中的沉默，人們習慣用政治或社會的壓制來為自己的沉默辯護，卻往往忘記了正視自己的沉默，在為這種壓制添磚加瓦。我們盡可以堵上自

己的耳朵或者捂著自己的嘴巴，但是當房間里有大象時，它隨時可能會抬起腳來，踩碎我們天下太平的幻覺。

1.孔子學院是中國在世界各地設立的推廣漢語和傳播中國文化的教育和文化交流機構。近年來，隨著中國經濟的騰飛和國際影響的提升，世界各地掀起了學習漢語的熱潮，孔子學院的設立也順應了這一潮流?？鬃訉W院的宗旨是增進世界各國對中國語言文化的了解，加強中國與世界各國的教育文化交流合作，發展中外友好關系，促進多元文化發展，構建和諧世界。截至2013年年底，全球已建立440所孔子學院和646個孔子課堂，分布在120個國家和地區。孔子學院已成為中外文化交流的重要平臺和加強中外友誼與合作的橋梁。

2.黃金周制度是國家用來鼓勵大眾在長假期間出行、旅游、消費的一種方式。1999年，中國政府頒布法律，將春節、“五一”“十一”的休息時間與前后的雙休日拼接，形成7天的長假，從此出現黃金周。黃金周制度的出現，是在1997年東南亞金融危機的背景下，為了刺激消費，拉動國內經濟，促進國內旅游而采取的舉措。閑暇時間的增多，大大豐富了人們的生活內容。與此同時，百姓的消費能力也在不斷提高，用于餐飲、購物、旅游、健身、娛樂等的消費與以前相比大幅度增加。黃金周最初設立的初衷是通過長假促進消費，拉動國民經濟增長。不過，黃金周也帶來一些問題，如交通擁堵和旅游景區負荷過大等。2008年，中國政府把7天的“五一”假期縮短為三天。

3.絲綢之路是公元前2世紀開始出現的一條聯系中國和歐亞大陸的貿易通道。由于這條古老的商路最開始以絲綢貿易為主，故稱絲綢之路。這條商路也是連接古代中華文明和其他歐亞國家文明的重要紐帶。正是通過絲綢之路，中國古代的四大發明------造紙術、火藥、指南針、印刷術——才得以傳遍各地。中國的絲綢、茶葉和瓷器由此走向世界，歐洲也通過絲綢之路向中國出口各種商品，滿足中國市場的需要。作為國際貿易的通道和文化交流的橋梁，絲綢之路有效地促進了東西方經濟文化的交流，并對中西方貿易、社會經濟發展乃至文明的進程都有著深遠的影響。

4.中國的四大名著即《三國演義》、《水滸傳》、《西游記》、《紅樓夢》。四部小說是中國經典文學作品，也是中國古典小說的巔峰之作?！度龂萘x》是我國第一部長篇歷史小說，描寫了東漢末年和三國時代的歷史風云?！端疂G傳》講述了北宋末年農民起義的故事?！段饔斡洝肥且徊可裨掝}材小說，講述唐僧師徒四人歷盡艱險西天取經的故事?！都t樓夢》則通過一個家族的興衰生動地描寫了18世紀上半葉中國封建社會的生活。四大名著中，《紅樓夢》被認為是中國傳統文化的百科全書，代表著中國古典小說的巔峰。四大名著都曾經過改編被搬上舞臺或銀幕。同時，四大名著被翻譯成多種語言，成為西方人了解中國文化的重要渠道。

本周翻譯練習內容：

?Frank Brown has made it.?

Frank Brown Dear Editor, After graduation from Searcy High School in 1976 as valedictorian, I began my undergraduate training at Harding College.Lacking the financial resources, I worked three jobs and commuted to college from my parents, home northwest of Searcy.We did not have a telephone at that time and had just recently gotten running water into the house from the well nearby.My car was an old two hundred dollar Cutlass that I would repair to keep the needed transportation;travel during the winter was often with chains on the icy roads.February 1977 was remarkable for the icy weather near and around Searcy.I would often spend nights sleeping in the Science building at Harding College because I could not afford any other place to lodge and the drive to my home was often too dangerous due to the weather conditions or the impassable mud roads.The struggle to keep up with my education, to work, and to find a place to sleep was never burdensome.My father had never learned to read nor write but he worked to give his children that one chance to succeed through a good education;I was not going to let my parents down after the sacrifices that they had made over the years.There was a day in February 1977 that the local radio told of a large approaching ice storm that would put even more ice on the roads than was already present.A decision had to be made for me to miss many classes or try to drive into Searcy and find a place to stay.I had my old cutlass, ten dollars and a set of chains.Of course, my parents were worried that I would be driving the icy roads and going down Four-Mile Hill.They were also aware that I could not call them as there was no telephone at our home.My mother asked me that once I made it to Searcy, to stop by the radio station and ask Pat Shourd to have an announcement made over the radio that I had made it safely to Searcy.I do not remember much about that two hour drive to Searcy but I do remember stopping at the radio station and timidly asking mother?s friend to perform this request.She told me that she would do her best and I left.As I started my car towards Harding College listening to the radio, I heard the announcement while driving down Race Street , “Frank Brown has made it.”

Before I made it to the Science building at Harding, I had heard the announcement three times.How many times it was repeated, I never knew, but I did know that my parents slept better that night knowing that the Searcy community had taken care of me.That night, I slept on an old couch at the back of the science building but I did not mind for I never missed a single class.I stayed in Searcy for the next few weeks till the ice melted and the dirt roads were travelable again.There is much that I do not recall from the winter of 1977 but this story has always filled my heart with joy;I have always been impressed by how a few people can make a difference in the lives of others.Thirty years have now passed but I still give thanks to all of those people around Searcy for so much assistance during an icy winter in 1977.湖南理工學院是一所省屬普通本科高校，座落在國家歷史文化名城岳陽市，校園三面環湖，山水相映，自然環境優勢明顯，歷史文化底蘊深厚。

上周翻譯練習講解

Fall came on with a softness, so that Brian didn?t realize what was in store—a hard-spined north woods winter—until it was near too late.He had never thought he would be here this long.After the plane crash that marooned him in the wilderness he had lived day by day for fifty-four days, until he had found the survival pack in the plane.Then another thirty-five days through the northern summer, somehow living the same day-to-day pattern he had started just after the crash.The side of the shelter was still far from airtight but about this Brian knew exactly what to do.He had spent one whole day watching a family of beaver mix mud and stick to make a watertight dam.He spent three hours bringing up double armfuls of fresh mud from the lake to pack into the low wall with sticks and leaves.When he was done he covered it with another layer of brush to protect the mud and when it dried by nightfall he had a truly weathertight shelter.He still had to seal the door but that night he sat with a fire warming the inside of his home and knew that as long as he had wood—and he was living in the middle of a forest—he would stay warm no matter what kind of weather came.He slept so soundly that the bear could have come in again and torn the place apart and he would not have known it.譯文一

秋天，悄無聲息地來了，但布萊恩卻沒有意識到這一點，還有自己即將面對的北方針葉林的冬天。等他有所感覺時，差點兒就來不及了。

他從沒有想過自己會在這兒待這么久。飛機的墜落把他拋棄在這荒野叢林中，他度日如年地挨過了54天，才在飛機上找到了救生包。接下來，在不知不覺中又有35個北方夏日溜走了。而他呢，只能這樣日復一日，得過且過著。

棚屋的側面，還遠遠沒有厚實到密不透風的程度，但是對付這個，布萊恩很清楚應該怎么做。他曾經花了整整一個白天的時間觀察河貍將泥和樹枝混合制成了不透水的水壩，于是他花了三個鐘頭從湖邊運來新鮮的泥土，混合了樹枝和樹葉，塞進矮墻中。砌完墻后，他又覆上另外一層灌木，來保護泥土。黃昏前，泥土風干了，他便有了一個真正能放風擋雨的棚屋了。他還需要封上門。不過那天晚上，他坐在火堆旁，整個小屋暖融融的，他知道只要他有木柴——況且他又住在森林里，不會缺少木柴的——無論遇到多么糟糕的天氣，他都能扛得住。他睡得如此香甜，以至于就是熊再度光臨，將這個地方扯個稀爛，他也不會有所感覺的。

譯文二

秋天，悄悄來臨。布萊恩即將在北方針葉林地度過冬天，而他還有意識到儲存了什么食物。等他有所察覺時，差點兒就來不及了。

他從未想過自己會困在這里那么久。飛機把他摔落在這荒野叢林中，在他找到救生包前，他艱難地度過了54天。接下來，又有35個北方夏日在不知不覺中溜走了。而他呢，還是跟在飛機失事后一樣過著日復一日的生活。棚屋的側面，還遠遠沒有厚實到密不透風的程度，但是對付這個，布萊恩很清楚應該怎么做。他曾經花了整整一個白天的時間觀察河貍將泥和樹枝混合制成了不透水的水壩，于是他花了三個鐘頭從湖邊運來新鮮的泥土，混合了樹枝和樹葉，塞進矮墻中。砌完墻后，他又覆上另外一層灌木，來保護泥土。黃昏前，泥土風干了，他便有了一個真正能放風擋雨的棚屋了。他還需要封上門。不過那天晚上，他坐在火堆旁，整個小屋暖融融的，他知道只要有木柴——他現在住在森林里，不會缺少木柴的——無論遇到多么糟糕的天氣，他都能頂得住。他睡得十分香甜，即使熊再度光顧，將這個地方扯個稀巴爛，他也不會知道的。

When the Guizhou Donkey Has Exhausted Its Tricks

There were no donkeys in Guizhou until someone officious took one there by boat;but finding no use for it he set it loose in the hills.A tiger who saw this monstrous looking beast thought it must be divine.It first surveyed the donkey from under cover, then ventured a little nearer, still keeping a respectful distance however.One day the donkey brayed.The tigher took fright and fled for fear of being bitten, in utter terror.But it came back for another look, and decided this creature was not so formidable after all.Then growing used to the braying it drew nearer, though it still dared not to attack.Coming nearer still, it began to take liberties, shoving, jostling, and charging roughly, till the donkey lost its temper and kicked out.“So that?s all it can do!” thought the tiger jubilantly.Then it leapt on the donkey and sank its teeth into it, severing its throat and devouring it before going on its way.師說——韓愈

生乎吾前，其聞道也，固先乎吾，吾從而師之；生乎吾后，其聞道也，亦先乎吾，吾從而師之。吾師道也，夫庸知其年之先后生于吾乎？是故無貴無賤，無長無少，道之所存，師之所存也。

嗟乎！師道之不傳也久矣，欲人之無惑也難矣。古之圣人，其出人也遠矣，猶且從師而問焉；今之眾人，其下圣人也亦遠矣，而恥學于師。是故圣益圣，愚益愚。圣人之所以為圣，愚人之所以為愚，其皆出于此乎？

愛其子，擇師而教之；于其身也，則恥師焉，惑矣。彼童子之師，授之書而習其句讀者，非吾所謂傳其道、解其惑者也。句讀之不知，惑之不解，或師焉，或不焉，小學而大遺，吾未見其明也。

巫醫、樂師、百工之人，不恥相師。士大夫之族，曰“師”曰“弟子”云者，則群聚而笑之。問之，則曰：彼與彼年相若也，道相似也，位卑則足羞，官盛則近諛。嗚呼！師道之不復，可知矣。巫醫、樂師、百工之人，君子不齒，今其智乃反不能及，其可怪也歟！

圣人無常師?？鬃訋熪白?、萇弘、師襄、老聃。郯子之徒，其賢不及孔子。孔子曰“三人行，則必有我師?！笔枪实茏硬槐夭蝗鐜煟瑤煵槐刭t于弟子。聞道有先后，術業有專攻，如是而已。

窗

錢鐘書 文 申雨平譯

原文

又是春天，窗子可以常開了。春天從窗外進來，人在屋子里坐不住，就從門里出去。不過屋子外的春天太賤了！到處是陽光，不像射破屋里陰深的那樣明亮；到處是給太陽曬得懶洋洋的風，不像攪動屋里沉悶的那樣有生氣。就是鳥語，也似乎瑣碎而單薄，需要屋里的寂靜來做襯托。我們因此明白，春天是該鑲嵌在窗子里看的，好比畫配了框子。

同時，我們悟到，門和窗有不同的意義。當然，門是造了讓人出進的。但是，窗子有時也可作為進出口用，譬如小偷或小說里私約的情人就喜歡爬窗子。所以窗子和門的根本分別，決不僅是沒有人進來出去。若據賞春一事來看，我們不妨這樣說：有了門，我們可以出去；有了窗，我們可以不必出去。窗子打通了人和大自然的隔膜，把風和太陽逗引進來，使屋子里也關著一部分春天，讓我們安坐了享受，無須再到外面去找。

Random Thoughts on the Window(Excerpt)

It is spring again and the window can be left open as often as one would like.As spring comes in through the windows, so people—unable to bear staying inside any longer—go outdoors.The spring outside, however, is much too cheap, for the sun shines on everything, and so does not seem as bright as that which shoots into the darkness of the house.Outside the sun-slothed breeze blows everywhere, but it is not so lively as that which stirs the gloominess inside the house.Even the chirping of the birds sounds so thin and broken that the quietness of the house is needed to set it off.It seems that spring was always meant to be put behind a windowpane for show, just like a picture in a frame.At the same time it also becomes clear that the door has a different significance from the window.Of course, doors were made for people to pass through;but a window can also sometimes serve as an entrance or as an exit, and is used as such by thieves and by lovers in novels.In fact the fundamental difference between a door and a window has nothing to do with them being either entrances or exits.When it comes to the admiration of spring, it could be put this way: a door makes it possible for one to go out, whereas a window makes it possible for one not to have to.A window helps to pull down the partition between man and nature.It leads breezes and sunlight in, and keeps part of the spring in the house.It allows one to sit and enjoy the spring in peace, and makes it unnecessary to go looking for it outside

本周的翻譯練習

特別的東西不要珍藏

多年前我跟悉尼的一位同學談話。那時他 太太剛去世不久，他告訴我說，他在整理他太太的東西的時候，發現了一條絲質的圍巾，那是它們去紐約旅游時，在一家名牌店買的，那是一條雅致、漂亮的名牌圍巾，高昂的價格卷標還掛在上面，他太太一直舍不得用，她想等一個特殊的日子才用。

講到這里，他停住了。我也沒接話，好一會后他說：“再也不要把好東西留到特別的日子才用，你活著的每一天都是特別的日子！”

以后，每當我想到這幾句話時，我常會把手邊的雜事放下，找一本小說，打開音響，躺在沙發上，抓住一些自己的時間。我會從落地窗欣賞淡水河的景色，不去管玻璃上的灰塵，我會拉著太太到外面去吃飯，不管家里的菜飯該怎么處理。生活應當是我們珍惜的一種經驗，而不是要捱過去的日子。

我曾經將這段話與一位女士分享，后來見面時，她告訴我她現在已不像從前那樣，把美麗的瓷器放在酒柜里了。以前她也以為要留待特別的日子才拿出來用，后來發現那一天從未到來?！皩怼?、“總有一天”已經不存在于她的字典里了。如果有什么值得高興的事，有什么得意的事，她現在就要聽到，就要看到。

我們常想跟老朋友聚一聚，但總是說“找機會”。我們常想擁抱一下已經長大的小孩，但總是等適當的時機。我們常想寫封信給另外一半，表達一下濃郁的情意，或甚至想讓他指導你很佩服他，但總是告訴自己不急。其實每天早上我們睜開眼睛時，都要告訴自己這是特別的一天。每一天，每一分鐘都是那么可貴。
