II. Passage Translation

Section A English to Chinese

Three passions, simple but overwhelmingly strong, have governed my life: the longing for love, the search for

knowledge, and unbearable pity for the suffering of mankind. These passions, like great winds, have blown me hither

and thither, in a wayw ard course over a deep ocean of anguish, reaching to the very verge of despair.

I have sought love, first, because it brings ecstasy-so great that I would often have sacrificed all the rest of my life

for a few hours for this joy. I have sought it, next, because it relieves loneliness-that terrible loneliness in which one

finally, because in the union of love I have seen, in a mystic miniature, the prefiguring vision of the heaven that saints

and poets have imagined. This is what I sought, and though it might seem too good for human life, this is what at last I

have found.

With equal passion I have sought knowledge. I have wished to understand the hearts of men. I have wished to know

why the stars shine…A little of this, but not much, I have achieved.

【参考译文】

三种简单却极其强烈的情感主宰着我的生活:对爱的渴望、对知识的追求、对人类痛苦的难以承受的怜之

心。这三种情感,像一阵阵飓风一样,任意地将我吹的飘来荡去,越过痛苦的海洋,抵达绝望的彼岸。

我寻找爱,首先,因为它令人心醉神迷,这种沉醉是如此美妙,以至于我愿意用余生来换取那几个小时的快

乐。我寻找爱,其次是因为它会减轻孤独,置身于那种可怕的孤独中,颤抖的灵魂在世界的边缘,看到冰冷的、

死寂的、无底深渊。我寻找爱,还因为在爱水乳交融时,在一个神秘的缩影中,我见到了先贤和诗人们所想象的、

预览的天堂。这就是我所追求的,尽管对于凡人来说,这好像是一种奢望。但这是我最终找到的。

我曾以同样的热情来追求知识。我希望能理解人类的心灵,希望能知道为什么星星会发光。我也曾经努力理

解毕达哥拉斯学派的理论,他们认为数字主载着方物的此消彼长。我了解了一点知识,但是不多。

Section B Chinese to English

中国自身的古白话是何时开始转化为欧化白话的?这要归结到近代来华的西方传教士,他们创作了最早的欧

化白话文。西方近代来华的传教士最初所用的汉语,大都是文言。中国的士大夫由于具有儒家信仰,对于基督教

的传教,往往持抵制态度。这就促使西方传教士必须更加注意发展文化水平较低、无法阅读文言的信徒,用白话

传教正是在这种状态下进入了他们的视野。

【参考译文】

When did Chinese own ancient vernacular turn into European-Chinese vernacular? It would come down to western

missionaries who came to China in recent years, because they created the first European-Chinese vernacular. At first,

they spoke Chinese in the form of classical languages. Chinese scholar-bureaucrats believed in Confucianism and always

resisted on Christianity, which made western missionaries pay more attention to develop low-educated and illiterate

people to become their followers. Therefore, European-Chinese vernacular came into their views on that condition.
