繼續(xù)欣賞林語堂先生《生活的藝術(shù)》一書中有關(guān)“閱讀的藝術(shù)”的第十一段撞羽。
先看譯文：
如此讀書藝術(shù)的概念阐斜，顯然是排斥以讀書為一種責任或義務(wù)的想法。在中國诀紊，我們常聽到勉人“苦讀”的說法。從前有一個勤苦的讀書人在夜里讀書時隅俘，每以錐刺股邻奠，使他不致睡去。還有一個讀書人在夜里讀書時为居，命一個女仆在旁邊以便在他睡去時叫醒他碌宴，這種讀法簡直是荒謬的。一個人在讀書的時候蒙畴，正當那古代的智者作家對他說話時而忽然睡去贰镣，他應(yīng)當立刻上床去安睡。用錐刺股或用仆人叫醒膳凝，無論做到什么程度碑隆，絕不能使他得到什么益處。這種人已完全喪失了讀書之樂蹬音。凡是有所成就的讀書人絕不懂什么叫做“勤研”或“苦讀”上煤，他們只知道愛好書，而情不自禁的讀下去著淆。
再讀英文原著：
Such a conception of the art of reading completely precludes the idea of reading as a duty or as an obligation. In China, one often encourages students to "study bitterly." There was a famous scholar who studied bitterly and who stuck an awl in his calf when he fell asleep while studying at night. There was another scholar who had a maid stand by his side as he was studying at night, to wake him up every time he fell asleep. This was nonsensical. If one has a book lying before him and falls asleep while some wise ancient author is talking to him, he should just go to bed. No amount of sticking an awl in his calf or of shaking him up by a maid will do him any good. Such a man has lost all sense of the pleasure of reading. Scholars who are worth anything at all never know what is called "a hard grind" or what "bitter study"means. They merely love books and read on because they cannot help themselves.
此段中的“There was a famous scholar who studied bitterly and who stuck an awl in his calf when he fell asleep while studying at night.” 很有意思劫狠，其中?awl 和 owl (貓頭鷹) 很像， calf又有“小牛”的意思永部，而實際上這句話所表達的意思和動物是沒有關(guān)系的独泞，而是……，建議你可以查查字典苔埋。
應(yīng)用一下：
People who really love reading never know what is called "a hard grind" or what "bitter study" means. Such kind of pain is only the imagination of someone who never really tastes the pleasure of reading.
真正愛閱讀的人絕不懂什么叫做“勤研”或“苦讀”懦砂，而“”苦讀的苦“”往往是不知讀書之樂的人的一種想象罷了。
