英語(yǔ)段落摘抄一：
The Battle of the Boyne had been fought more than a hundred years before, but, to the O’Harasand their neighbors, it might have been yesterday when their hopes and their dreams, as wellas their lands and wealth, went off in the same cloud of dust that enveloped a frightened andfleeing Stuart prince, leaving William of Orange and his hated troops with their orangecockades to cut down the Irish adherents of the Stuarts.
博因河戰(zhàn)役是一百多年以前的事了，但是在奧哈拉家族和他們的鄰里看來(lái)，就像昨天發(fā)生的事，那時(shí)他們的希望和夢(mèng)想，他們的土地和錢(qián)財(cái)，都在那團(tuán)卷著一位驚惶逃路的斯圖爾特王子的魔霧中消失了，只留下奧蘭治王室的威廉和他那帶著奧蘭治帽徽的軍隊(duì)來(lái)屠殺斯圖爾特王朝的愛(ài)爾蘭依附者了。
英語(yǔ)段落摘抄二：
Gerald had come to America from Ireland when hewas twenty-one. He had come hastily, as many abetter and worse Irishman before and since, with theclothes he had on his back, two shillings above hispassage money and a price on his head that he feltwas larger than his misdeed warranted. There wasno Orangeman this side of hell worth a hundredpounds to the British government or to the devil himself; but if the government felt so stronglyabout the death of an English absentee landlord’s rent agent, it was time for Gerald O’Hara tobe leaving and leaving suddenly. True, he had called the rent agent “a bastard of anOrangeman,” but that, according to Gerald’s way of looking at it, did not give the man any rightto insult him by whistling the opening bars of “The Boyne Water.”
21歲那年杰拉爾德來(lái)到美國(guó)。他是匆匆而來(lái)像以前或以后許多好好壞壞的愛(ài)爾蘭人那樣，因?yàn)樗粠е砩洗┑囊路唾I(mǎi)船票剩下的兩個(gè)先令，以及懸賞捉拿他的那個(gè)身價(jià)，而且他覺(jué)得這個(gè)身價(jià)比他的罪行所應(yīng)得的還高了一些。世界上還沒(méi)有一個(gè)奧蘭治派分子值得英國(guó)政府或魔鬼本身出一百鎊的;但是如果政府對(duì)于一個(gè)英國(guó)的不在地主地租代理人的死會(huì)那么認(rèn)真，那么杰拉爾德·奧哈拉的突然出走便是適時(shí)的了。的確，他曾經(jīng)稱(chēng)呼過(guò)地租代理人為"奧蘭治派野崽子"不過(guò)，按照杰拉爾德對(duì)此事的看法，這并不使那個(gè)人就有權(quán)哼著《博因河之歌》那開(kāi)頭幾句來(lái)侮辱他。
英語(yǔ)段落摘抄三：
His tall brothers were a grim, quiet lot, in whom the family tradition of past glories, lost forever,rankled in unspoken hate and crackled out in bitter humor. Had Gerald been brawny, hewould have gone the way of the other O’Haras and moved quietly and darkly among the rebelsagainst the government But Gerald was “loud-mouthed and bullheaded,” as his mother fondlyphrased it, hair trigger of temper, quick with his fists and possessed of a chip on his shoulderso large as to be almost visible to the naked eye. He swaggered among the tall O’Haras like astrutting bantam in a barnyard of giant Cochin roosters, and they loved him, baited himaffectionately to hear him roar and hammered on him with their large fists no more than wasnecessary to keep a baby brother in his proper place.
他那些高個(gè)兒哥哥是些冷酷寡言的人，在他們身上，歷史光榮的傳統(tǒng)已經(jīng)永遠(yuǎn)消失，淪落為默默的仇恨，爆裂出痛苦的幽默來(lái)了。要是杰拉爾德也生來(lái)強(qiáng)壯，他就會(huì)走上向奧哈拉家族中其他人的道路，在反政府的行列中悄悄地、神秘地干起來(lái)?？山芾瓲柕孪袼赣H鐘愛(ài)地形容的那樣，是個(gè)"高嗓門(mén)，笨腦袋"，嬤嬤暴躁，動(dòng)輒使拳頭，并且盛氣凌人，叫人見(jiàn)人怕。他在那些高大的奧哈拉家族的人中間，就像一只神氣十足的矮腳雞在滿(mǎn)院子大個(gè)兒雄雞中間那樣，故意昂首闊步，而他們都愛(ài)護(hù)他，親切地慫恿地高聲喊叫，必要時(shí)也只伸出他們的大拳頭敲他幾下，讓這位小弟弟不要太得意忘形了。
