„Howthis does work?”
“这份工作怎么样?”JenkinputsonMissEvelyn'shandbag the sofa, the familyfemale teachershad sat. Helaunched the topicin the tone of chat, MissEvelynalso very naturalreply:詹金斯将艾芙琳小姐的提包放到沙发上,家庭女教师已经坐了下来。他以闲谈的语气展开了话题,艾芙琳小姐也很自然的回答道:„Alsogood, although the wagewas short, but the matter are not at least many, every week the preparing a lessontimewas about2-3hoursenough.”
“还不错,虽然薪水少了一些,但至少事情不算很多,每周备课时间不过2-3个小时就够了。”„, How do youseetothisoccupation? Do Irefer toteacheroccupation?”
“那么,你对这份职业怎么看?我是指教师这份职业?”Jenkinwantsto guide the topic.詹金斯想要将话题引导过来。„Alsogood, recentlydozensyears of the change of the world was quick, pastyoungaristocrat, for exampleViscountFranklinsuchperson, canseize the wealthbyseveralriskverybiginvestments. The aristocrats are really verygood, when hearstheypay taxes has biggiving favored treatment.”
“还不错吧,最近几十年身边的世界发生的变化很快,过去的小贵族,比如富兰克林子爵这样人,也能够靠几笔风险很大的投资攫取财富。贵族真的是很不错,听说他们缴税时有很大的优待。”MissEvelyndoes not understandJenkin to askanythingobviously.
艾芙琳小姐显然是不懂詹金斯想问什么。„Imeant,regarding the knowledgetaughtto an underagemiss, howthismatter do youregard?”
“我是说,对于将知识教导给一位未成年姑娘,这件事你是怎么看待的?”Jenkinchanged a view.詹金斯换了一个说法。„Underage? Hasn't Nancygrown up in the summer of this year?”
“未成年?南希今年夏季不就已经成年了吗?”MissEvelynhas doubts asked that obviouslyJenkin the oneselfcognition„grown”applied mechanicallythisworldarbitrarily.
艾芙琳小姐疑惑的问了一句,显然詹金斯又把自己认知的“成年”擅自套用到这个世界了。„As forteachingherknowledge, actuallyalsohas nothing. To be honest, the missdoes not have the talentto the poetryvery much. Is goodbecause ofherandherfamily member, cannotcount on that shecanbecome the poet, Nancyoneselfalsowantsto passstudy something, young peopleshows offto the public relations of banquetand, perhaps can also thereforefind the righthusband.”
“至于教给她知识,其实也没什么。哦,老实说,那姑娘并不是对诗文很有天赋。好在她和她的家人,也没能指望她可以成为诗人,南希自己也只是想通过学些东西,到宴会和年轻人的社交上出出风头,说不定还能因此找到合适的丈夫。”Shestilldoes not understand the Jenkinissue, is onlyselfishsaying:
她依然不懂詹金斯的问题,只是自顾自的说道:„Igraduatedfrom the Nolanhigherteachers'college, studiedso manyyearsliteratures, unexpectedly can only bygiving the aristocratyoung girl of notalentis the tutorsto live hand to mouthto eat.”
“我从诺兰高等师范学院毕业,学了这么多年的文学,居然只能靠给毫无天赋的贵族少女做家庭教师来混口饭吃。”
The youngyoung ladyis then complaining, probably is extremely idly boredandfriend'schat:
年轻的小姐接着抱怨着,像是闲极无聊与朋友的闲谈:„Youlook, nowwhatpeoplecancompose a poem, depend oncompose a poemcannot make money. Itogo to school, leave the countrysidesmall town, arrives at the Nolanlike thisbigcityalone, carrieddebt of bigfund. But how can this? The literature is not able to make money, bywriting an article unable to make money, bybeing the teachercannot make money , can only teach the aristocrat the young girl.”
“你瞧,现在什么人都能写诗,靠着写诗是赚不到钱的。我为了上学,离开乡下小镇,独自来到诺兰这样的大城市,背了一大笔款子的欠债。但这又能怎样呢?文学是赚不到钱的,靠写文章赚不到钱,靠当教师赚不到钱,也就只能教教贵族少女了。”„Thenyoudo make moneyforwhat?”
“那么你赚钱是为了什么?”Jenkinhas not seen the opposite partyto have„heart of the selfless contributions”thistype of thing.詹金斯一点也没看出对方有“无私奉献之心”这种东西。„Purchasing homes, whenIam the country girl, sits for the first time when draws the freight vehicle of strawis entering a city, Ivainly hoped for that herehas the ownhouse.”
“买房子,当我还是乡下姑娘,第一次坐着拉着稻草的货车进城时,我就梦想在这里有自己的房子。”Hercorners of the mouthshow the smile, verynaturalreplyJenkinissue, even ifthisissuehas involved the privacy:
她的嘴角露出微笑,很自然的回答詹金斯的问题,即使这个问题已经涉及隐私了:„I can always succeed, this yearmy am 26 years old, went into debtalready, depended onworkdiligently, accumulatedsomemoney. If the lifeis later smooth, over 30 -year-old, Icanentire a smallhouse that buys the Nolanwest district.”
“我总能成功的,今年我二十六岁,欠债已经还完了,靠着努力的工作,也攒下了一些钱。如果之后生活顺利,三十多岁,我就能全款买下诺兰西区的一栋小房子。”„Thenmarries? After the marriage, do twopeoplepurchase homesare less convenient?”
“那么结婚呢?结婚后,两个人买房子不是更方便吗?”„If before the marriage, does not have the ownproperty, after the marriage, was fetteredby the manin the family, thenIarrive atNolanto livefrom16years old alone, forwhat?”
“如果结婚前没有自己的财产,结婚后被男人束缚在家庭里,那么我从十六岁来到诺兰独自生活,又是为了什么?”MissEvelyn asked that thendrew the conclusion:
艾芙琳小姐反问道,然后做出结论:„Therefore, so long ascanhave the ownproperty, maintainssoberis cheatedmoneyby the man, the matter of marriageactuallyto30years old. Iam not willingthesewomenlikehometown, Ito thinkliveis clearer.”
“所以,只要能有自己的财产,保持清醒不被男人骗走钱,结婚的事情其实到三十岁也可以。我可不愿意像家乡的那些女人们一样,我想活的明白一些。”
The Jenkinanythingwordshad not said that buthebelieves the ownexpressionenoughhas demonstrated„admiration”expression:詹金斯什么话也没说,但他相信自己的表情已经足够显示出“钦佩”的表情了:„Yes, yourideais very good, the independentladies are actually not worriedto get married. Is more independentis very good, does not needto depend uponothers.”
“是的,你的想法很不错,独立的女士们其实并不担心结婚。独立些很好,不必依靠别人。”Is speaking, flexureonshouldersmallhead of Chocolate. Chocolateis raising head to biteJenkinone, becauseitsuspected that oneselfwas suggested.
说着话,挠了挠肩膀上巧克力的小脑袋。巧克力仰着头想要咬詹金斯一口,因为它怀疑自己被暗示了。Was praisedbyJenkin, MissEvelyn was also very happy that cansomepeopleapproveheridea. The happycarryingteacup, thiswent back the original intention of Jenkin the topicon own initiative:
被詹金斯夸奖了一下,艾芙琳小姐也很高兴能有人认同她的想法。开心的端起茶杯,这才主动将话题拉回到了詹金斯的原意:„As forbeingteacher, Iactuallyalsowantto make the ownstudentbe ableto understand that myidea, canbe independent. Butregarding the aristocratyoung lady, this is very certainly difficult. Therefore, cangiveherto be enough the ownknowledge, althoughshecannot learnmany......”
“至于当教师,我其实也很想让自己的学生能够明白我的想法,能够独立起来。但对于贵族小姐,这当然很难。所以,能够把自己的学识给她就足够了,虽然她也学不到多少......”Held the hot teato attractonecarefully, thennarrowed the eyeis seeming like enduring the tonguefeeling the heat:
捧着热茶小心的吸了一口,然后眯着眼睛像是在忍受舌头感受的热量:„Igraduatefrom the normal school, in the pasthad also thought that takes seriouslyteacher......, butthistimeis so crazy, is so progressive, Iobtain a dream, mustput asideanotherdream, after allIam a woman, is not the man. Thisdid not say that Iam worse than the man, is onlythistime, mysex determinationIam unable to handlemorethingslike the man. I can only put down.”
“我是从师范学校毕业的,过去也想过,去当真正的老师......但这个时代这么疯狂,这么进步,我得到一个梦想,就必须放下另一个梦想,毕竟我是女人,不是男人。这不是说我比男人差,只是这个时代,我的性别决定了我无法像男人那样做更多的事情。我只能放下了。”Jenkincomes the spiritimmediately, sinceshesaidlike this,surelydoes not havecompleteputting down. Considers the sentence, the Jenkinprobewas saying:詹金斯立刻来了精神,既然她这样说,肯定就没有完全的放下。斟酌着语句,詹金斯试探道:„Thentaught that MissNancy'sprocess, youare onlypureforreward?”
“那么教导南希小姐的过程,你只是单纯的为了报酬吗?”„Of course not.”
“当然不是。”MissEvelynshaking the headwithout hesitation:
艾芙琳小姐不假思索的摇摇头:„Ifpureforreward, actuallyspends time on otherworkis more appropriate, youknow the place that sinceIlive incomes tohere, how muchtimeneedsto spend? Althoughbecameteacher'sdream is not not possibleto continue, butIhave not thought that canuseotherway, the ownknowledge, ideaanddream......”
“如果单纯为了报酬,其实将时间花在其他工作上更合适,你知道从我住的地方来这里,需要花多少时间吗?虽然成为老师的梦想不可能继续了,但我也未尝没有想过,能够用另外的方式,把自己的知识、想法和梦想......”Sheshakes the headagain:
她再次摇头:„Did not saythese, was no interesting.”
“不说这些了,没什么意思。”„ButyouspendinMissNancythoughts, exceeds the reward that youobtainabsolutely.”Jenkinsummarized.
“但你花费在南希小姐身上的心思,是绝对超过你获得的报酬的。”詹金斯总结道。„Thisisnatural, Iam the student of teachers'collegegraduation, Iam impossibleto forget the ownstatus.”
“这是当然,我是师范学院毕业的学生,我不可能忘记自己的身份。”Sheraised the neckto say.
她扬起了脖子说道。Jenkinheardoneself the words that wantsto listen, thisfelt relieved,at leastshowed the opposite partytrulyhas„heart of the selfless contributions”thistype of thing.詹金斯听到了自己想要听的话,这才放下心来,至少证明对方的确存在“无私奉献之心”这种东西。„Buthas provenexistence, how can Ibe ableto takeit?”
“但已经证明了存在,我要怎么才能把它取出来?”Heturns the headto ask that tostandingbefore the gearperson who the windowlooks at the rain, MissEvelynseems likehas not heardthese words, the gearpersonsaid:
他转头问向站在窗前看着雨的齿轮人,艾芙琳小姐像是没听到这句话,齿轮人则说道:„Digsherheart, wasn't OK?”
“把她的心脏挖出来,不就可以了?”Jenkinlooks atit, the latterthenalsosaid:詹金斯看着它,后者便又说道:„What kind of, thisjokehow?”
“怎么样,这个玩笑怎么样?”„Was disappointing. Do Iwantto obtainthatthing? Ifyouare not willing saying that shuts up, Ithink that myoneself can also discover.”
“差劲极了。我到底要怎样才会获得那东西?如果你不愿意说,就闭嘴,我想我自己也能发现。”„Yes, youroneself can also discover,after all the firstgoalsomewere too simple.”
“是的,你自己也能发现,毕竟第一个目标有些太简单了。”
Before the gearpersonarrives at the sofa, caressedinMissEvelyn'stop of the head, the latterseems likecannot seeitto be the same.
齿轮人走到沙发前,在艾芙琳小姐的头顶抚了一下,后者像是根本看不到它一样。„The society of human is really marvelous, youlook, thiswomanhas the determination and willobviously, but the realitymakesherhave togive up the heart of ownselfless contributions. ButMissNancy who thatyouhave not seen, shehasall that Evelynenvies, ideaanddream that butshehas no.”
“人类的社会真是奇妙,你瞧,明明这位女士有着决心和毅力,但现实却让她不得不放弃自己的无私奉献之心。而那位你还没有见到的南希小姐,她有着艾芙琳所羡慕的一切,但她却没有任何的想法和梦想。”„What do youwantto express?”
“你想表达什么?”Jenkinfrowns, the repertoire of opposite partysomewhatlooks familiar.詹金斯皱了下眉头,对方的套路有些眼熟。„I want to say that perhapsyourtimewere wrong.”
“我是想说,也许你们的时代错了。”„Was wrong?”
“错了?”„Yes, seems like the fresh flower that is in full bloom, butintrinsichas in fact rotted. The civilization of humanis very prosperous, butin my opinion, is the fireworks is the same, moreis the lift-offmoremustblast.”
“是的,看上去像是盛开的鲜花,但实际上内在已经烂掉了。人类的文明很繁盛,但在我看来,也不过是烟花一样,越是升空越是要炸掉的。”Itdeliberatelystops, thenasked:
它刻意停顿,然后问道:„Youknow, ifpermanently curesall these? Letpursuedreamby the dream, makingordinarinessordinary, enablesallaccording to the correctideato conduct.”
“你知道如果根治这一切吗?让追梦者逐梦,让平凡者平凡,让所有的一切都能按照正确的想法进行。”„Thenmakesallpeopleturn into the gearperson, underyourexquisitecomputationandcontrol, ordered conducts the socialcirculation.”
“那么就让所有的人都变成齿轮人,在你的精妙计算和操控下,有序的进行社会循环。”Jenkinreplied, evenhas not thought.詹金斯回答道,甚至没有思索。„Youlook, youreallymostunderstandmy.”
“你瞧,你果然是最懂我的。”
The gearpersonsaid,thensaton the independentsmallsofa. Jenkinridiculedone, somewhatdisgruntledreply:
齿轮人说道,然后坐在了单独的小沙发上。詹金斯嘲笑一声,有些不悦的回答道:„Iknow that youwantto saythis, butyoulooked down onme, Ihave arrived here, because ofthispersuasion, will also give upallfollowingyou?”
“我就知道你想说这个,但你是不是太小瞧我了,我都已经走到这里了,难道还会因为这种劝说,放弃所有的一切去跟随你?”„Waited forus.”
“把我们拭目以待好了。”
The gearpersonsaid.
齿轮人说道。How longtwo peopletalkshave not conducted, after thatmidday napfinishedMissNancypushed the doorto walk, thiswasin the Jenkinimpressionhas really seenseveralsurfacearistocratyoung ladies.
两人的谈话并没有进行多久,那位午睡结束后的南希小姐就推门走了进来,这果然是詹金斯印象中见过几次面的贵族小姐。Saw the ownstudentto arrive, MissEvelynthenset outto prepareto starttoday'scurriculum, Jenkindid not have the opportunity of talking. Buthedoes not tryagainto talk, hugs the catto siton the couch, looks that twowomengatherat the deskstarttoday'sschoolwork.
见自己的学生到了,艾芙琳小姐便起身准备开始今天的课程,詹金斯也就没有了搭话的机会。但他也不想再试图搭话了,抱着猫坐在长沙发上,看着两位女士聚集在书桌旁开始今天的课业。
The inspectionwork, recited the free verse written in the vernacular, to readthis monthnewly issuedpoettogether. Sinceis the poet, naturallywhattypepoemhas, manycritiquesocieties, or the content of mappingtime.
检查作业、朗诵新诗、共同阅读这个月的新发行的诗刊。既然是诗刊,自然什么类型的诗都有,其中也不乏批判社会,或者映射时代的内容。
The aristocratyoung ladyandhertutorreadoneto insinuate that the femalewas oppressed, publicizing the femaleshouldhave the workopportunityrather thanto be stranded the articleinfamily, NancyMissFranklinthereforeasked:
贵族小姐和她的家庭教师读到了一首影射女性被压迫,宣扬女性应该获得劳动机会而非困在家庭中的文章,南希・富兰克林小姐于是问道:„Does MissEvelyn, howyouseetothismatter? Ibelieveactually, after the marriage, does not needto work, all daymingles among the banquet and salonis very goodlife. The delightfulcakes and pastries and melodiousviolin, the noise and dustcompared withfactoryare better.”
“艾芙琳小姐,您对这种事情怎么看?我倒是认为,结婚以后不用工作,整日混迹在宴会和沙龙是很不错的生活。甜美的糕点和悠扬的小提琴,怎么也比工厂的噪声和尘埃要好。”MissFranklinis not mature.富兰克林小姐并不成熟。„Thispoemdoes not writeto your family'syoung ladieslooks.”
“这首诗不是写给你们这种家庭的小姐们看的。”MissEvelyn said that onfacesomewhatsomewhathelplessexpression.
艾芙琳小姐说道,脸上多多少少有些无奈的表情。„But since does not writetomelooked that why will appear, inpoet that only thenwecanread?”
“但既然不是写给我看的,那么为什么会出现在,只有我们才会看的诗刊上?”Shecontinuesto ask, MissEvelynwantsto be perfunctorycasually, becauseexplained that thismatter, is notseveralwordscantalk clearly, moreover something did not sayto the ownstudentconveniently.
她继续问道,艾芙琳小姐本想随便敷衍过去,因为解释这种事情,可不是几句话就能说清楚的,而且有些事情也不方便向自己的学生说。Butsuddenlythinksdoes not know very is longgoodpersonto speaka moment agowithanything, thinksquestion and answeraboutoccupation, thinksis engaged in the talk of workaboutoncedream and present, thought ofoneselfinthatperiod of time of Nolanteachers'collegedebtstudy.
但忽然又想到了刚才不知道和什么长得很不错的人说过话,想到了关于职业的问答,想到了关于曾经的梦想和现在从事工作的谈话,想到了自己在诺兰师范学院负债就读的那段时光。MissEvelyn there, hadflash that unexpectedlypondered that philosophical question- what am Imaking?
艾芙琳小姐愣在了那里,有那么一瞬间,居然思考起了哲学问题-我在做什么?
