1. 必修一Unit1安妮最好的朋友
Do you want a friend whom you could tell everything to, like your deepest feelings and thoughts?你是不是想有一位无话不谈能推心置腹的朋友呢?Or are you afraid that your friend would laugh at you, or would not understand what you are going through?或者你是不是担心你的朋友会嘲笑你,会不理解你目前经历的困境呢?Anne Frank wanted the first kind, so she made her diary her best friend.安妮·弗兰克想要的是第一种类型的朋友,于是她就把日记当成了她最好的朋友。
Anne lived in Amsterdam in the Netherlands during World War II.安妮在第二次世界大战期间住在荷兰的阿姆斯特丹。Her family was Jewish so they had to hide or they would be caught by the German Nazis.她一家人都是犹太人,所以他们不得不躲藏起来,否则他们就会被德国纳粹抓去。She and her family hid away for nearly twenty-five months before they were discovered.她和她的家人躲藏了将近25个月之后才被发现。During that time the only true friend was her diary.在这段时间里,她唯一的忠实朋友就是她的日记了。She said, “I don’t want to set down a series of facts in a diary as most people do, but I want this diary itself to be my friend, and I shall call my friend Kitty.”她说,“我不愿像大多数人那样在日记中记流水账。我要把这本日记当作我的朋友,我要把我这个朋友称作基蒂”。Now read how she felt after being in the hiding place since July 1942.安妮自从1942年7月起就躲藏在那儿了,现在,来看看她的心情吧。
Dear kitty,亲爱的基蒂:
I wonder if it’s because I haven’t been able to be outdoors for so long that I’ve grown so crazy about everything to do with nature.我不知道这是不是因为我长久无法出门的缘故,我变得对一切与大自然有关的事物都无比狂热。I can well remember that there was a time when a deep blue sky, the song of the birds, moonlight and flowers could never have kept me spellbound.我记得非常清楚,以前,湛蓝的天空、鸟儿的歌唱、月光和鲜花,从未令我心迷神往过。That’s changed since I came here.自从我来到这里,这一切都变了。
…For example, one evening when it was so warm, I stayed awake on purpose until half past eleven in order to have a good look at the moon for once by myself.…比方说,有天晚上天气很暖和,我熬到11点半故意不睡觉,为的是独自好好看看月亮。But as the moon gave far too much light, I didn’t dare open a window.但是因为月光太亮了,我不敢打开窗户。Another time five months ago, I happened to be upstairs one evening when the window was open.还有一次,就在五个月以前的一个晚上,我碰巧在楼上,窗户是开着的。I didn’t go downstairs until the window had to be shut.我一直等到非关窗不可的时候才下楼去。The dark, rainy evening, the wind, the thundering clouds held me entirely in their power; it was the first time in a year and a half that I’d seen the night face to face…漆黑的夜晚,风吹雨打,雷电交加,我全然被这种力量镇住了。这是我一年半以来第一次目睹夜晚……
…Sadly…I am only able to look at nature through dirty curtains hanging before very dusty windows.……令人伤心的是……我只能透过脏兮兮的窗帘观看大自然,窗帘悬挂在沾满灰尘的窗前。It’s no pleasure looking through these any longer because nature is one thing that really must be experienced.观看这些已经不再是乐趣,因为大自然是你必须亲身体验的。
Yours,
Anne你的安妮
