标题 《英语散文》西式幽默
范文

"'The most beautiful spot on campus is not the ClaSsrooms, nor the sports ground, nor the small lawn with a fountain at the school gate; it is our cafeteria. Look! The windows are so clean , that you scarcely notice any glass on them' --" "He paused, his eyes flashing with a glint of humour and his brows shooting upward. "Listen! Isn't it humorous?" Humorous? But what was humorous about it? The students were hard put to it. "'If you were not careful enough,'" the teacher read on, '"and had a fall on the floor, you would be amazed to find that you had not fallen at all because you did not get a single particle of dust on your clothes. If you had worked in the cafeteria long enough, you would have forgotten what a fly looks like ... '" He paused again, his tongue clicking admiration. Working up a very funny expression on his face, he went on, "Listen, please! Could anyone else have made it more humorous?" He laughed so hard that he could scarcely continue.

 

 

注释
①这是一篇讽刺小说,充满了人物形象的细节描写,译时用语应尽力准确、生动,描绘出与原文具
有同样幽默效果的形象。
②译“洋教师”应指明是哪一个国家或讲哪一种语言的,不但使情节更有真实感,也更符合英语习惯。
③英美人量身高以英尺、英寸计,二米约为六英尺五英寸。
④看上下文,这里的"玩笑,不是"jokes",应是“sense of humour”
⑤末句以直接陈述语译出效果似更好。
(刘先农译注)
