The Ancient Greek Mythology，Pygmalion
In ancient Greek mythology，Pygmalion was a gifted sculptor from Cyprus，who showed no interest in the local women at all，for he found them immoral.Instead，Pygmalion concentrated on his art until one day he ran across a large，perfect piece of ivory and decided to carve a beautiful woman from it.When he finished the statue，Pygmalion found the image of his ideal woman so lovely that he dressed the figure and covered her in jewels.He gave the statue a name：Galatea，which meant sleeping love.He found himself falling in love with his ideal woman，so he went to the temple of Aphrodite(the goddess of love and beauty)to beg for a wife who would be as perfect as his statue.
Aphrodite was curious，so she visited the room of the sculptor while he was away and was charmed by his creation.Galatea was the image of herself.Flattered，Aphrodite brought the statue to life.When Pygmalion returned to his home，he found Galatea alive，and humbled himself at her feet.Pygmalion and Galatea got married and Pygmalion never forgot to thank Aphrodite for the gift she had given him.He and Galatea brought gifts to her temple throughout their life，and Aphrodite blessed them with happiness and love in return.

皮格马利翁
主要人物：
伊莱扎·杜利特尔(简称伊)：穷苦的卖花姑娘，立志要改善自己
希金斯教授(简称希)：一位语音学专家，坚信一个人的英语水平决定这个人的社会地位
皮克林上校(简称皮)：陆军军官，后来成了希金斯的朋友。

希金斯还给他安排
了一项任务
第一幕决定性的会面
1914年某日晚上11点15分，在英国伦敦某剧场外。

下着倾盆大雨，四处响着出租车的鸣笛声。

有一位男士在躲雨，边听人们谈话，边观察着人们的反应。

他一边观察，一边在做记录。

附近一个穿着黑色衣裙围着羊毛围巾的卖花姑娘也在躲雨。

这时，有位先生(简称先)从这儿路过，他犹豫了片刻。

伊：长官，这边来呀，买我这个苦命的女孩一束花吧。

先：对不起，我没有零钱。

伊：长官，我可以给你找零钱呀。

先：(惊奇地)一英镑你找得开吗？恐怕没有再小的钱了。

伊：(带有希望的神色)啊！好啦，长官，一定要从我这儿买一束吧。

拿这一束，只要三个便士。

(举起一些已经枯萎的花)
w allet(钱包) and sounds more friendly]But，wait，here's some small change.Will that be of any use to you？It's raining heavily now，isn't it？(lea v es)
E：(disappointed at the oute，but thinking it is better than nothing)Thank you，sir.(sees a man taking notes and feels w orried)Hey! I ain't done nothing wrong⑤by speaking to that gentleman.I've a right to sell flowers，I have.I ain't no thief(小偷)．I'm an honest girl I am！(begins to cry)
H：(kindly)There！There！Who's hurting you，you silly girl？What do you take me for？[gi v es her a handkerchief(手帕)]
E：I thought maybe you was a policeman in disguise(伪装)．
H：Do I look like a policeman?
E：(still w orried)Then why did'ou take down⑥my words for？How do I know
whether'ou took me down right？'ou just show me what'ou've wrote about me!
H：Here you are.(hands o v er⑦the paper co v ered in w riting⑧.)
E：What's that？That ain't proper writing.I can't read that.(pushes it back at him) H：I can.(reads imitating Eliza)“e over'ere，cap'in，and buy me flowers off a poor girl.”(in his o w n v oice)There you are and you were born in Lisson Grove if I'm not mistaken.
先：(不舒服地)别烦我了，好姑娘。

(在钱包里找什么，这时语气好些了)等一等，这儿有几个零钱。

那对你有用吗？现在雨下大了，不是吗？(说完就走了)伊：(对先生付的钱表现出失望的样子，但是想着有总比没有好)先生，谢谢了。

(看到有人在记什么，感到很担心)嗨！我跟那位先生讲话，又没做错什么事呀。

我有权卖花吧，我有权嘛！我不是小偷。

我是个老实姑娘，老老实实的！(开始哭起来)
希：(友善地)好啦！好啦！谁伤害你了，傻姑娘！你把我当成什么人了？(递给她一条手帕)
伊：我还以为你是一个便衣警察呢。

希：我像警察吗？
伊：(仍在担心)那你为什么要把我说的话记下来呢？我怎么知道你是不是写对了呢？那你把你写的关于我的东西给我看看！
希：你看吧。

(把写满字的纸递给她)
伊：这是什么呀？不像规规矩矩的字。

我看不懂。

(把纸退回给他)
希：我来读。

(模仿伊的声音读)“长官，这边来呀，买我这个苦命的女孩一束花吧。

”(改用自己的声音)你呀，如果我没有弄错的话，你出生在里森格罗佛。

CP：(has been w atching the girl and no w speaks to Higgins)That's quite brilliant！How did you do that，may I ask?
H：Simply phonetics studied and classified from people's own speech.That's my
profession and also my hobby.You can place⑨a man by just a few remarks.I can place any spoken conversation within six miles，and even within two streets in London sometimes.
CP：Let me congratulate you！But is there an ine to be made in that?
H：Yes，indeed.Quite a good one.This is the age of the newly rich.People begin their working life in a poor neighbourhood of London with 80 pounds a year and end in a rich one with 100 thousand.But they betray themselves every time they open their mouthsB10.Now once taught by me⑪，she'd bee an upper(级别较高的) class lady．．．CP：Is that so？Extraordinary(不同寻常的)!
H：(rudely)Look at this girl with her terrible English：the English that will condemn her to the gutter(贫民区) to the end of her days⑫.But，sir，(proudly)once educated to speak properly(恰当地)，that girl could pass herself off in three months as a duchess(女公爵)at an ambassador's(使节的) garden party.Perhaps I could even find her a place as a lady's maid or a shop assistant，which requires better English.
E：What's that you say？A shop assistant？Now that's sommat I want，that is!
H：(ignores her)Can you believe that?
CP：Of course！I study many Indian dialects myself and．．．
H：Do you indeed？Do you know Colonel Pickering?
CP：Indeed I do，for that is me.Who are you?
H：I'm Henry Higgins and I was going to India to meet you.
CP：And I came to England to make your acquaintance(相识)．
E：What about me？How'll you help me?
H：Oh，take that.(carelessly thro w s a handful(一把)of money into her basket)We must have a celebration，my dear man.(lea v e together)
E：(looking at the collected money in amazement)Well，I never.A whole pound！A fortune！That'll help me，indeed it will.Tomorrow I'll find you，Henry Higgins.Just you wait and see！All that talk of(imitates him)“authentic(真正的)English”．．．(in her o w n v oice)I'll see whether you can get that for me．．．(goes out)
伊：(困惑不解似的)倘若我是的话会怎样呢？跟你有什么关系呢？
皮：(本来是一直望着这个姑娘的，这时跟希金斯说话了)太棒了！请问你是怎
么知道的呢？
希：仅仅是研究语音学，同时根据人们的言谈来对语音学进行分类。

那是我的专业，也是我的业余爱好。

你可以仅仅通过几句话就判断出一个人是哪个地方的。

我可以根据任何谈话来判定他们是哪个地方的人，差距不超过六英里，有时候在伦敦甚至不超过两个街区。

皮：恭喜你了！不过，你这样做有收入吗？
希：当然有啰，还挺高呢。

这是致富的年代。

人们从伦敦的穷人区开始工作，年收入才80英镑。

最后到了富人区工作，年收入就是10万英镑了。

但是，他们每次开口说话时都会暴露自己。

如今让我一教，她就会变成一个上层阶级的淑女……
皮：是吗？那太妙了！
希：(粗鲁地)你瞧那个姑娘，英语说得那样糟糕，那一口英语使她注定要在贫民窟里呆一辈子了。

但是，先生，(高傲地)一旦她接受教导，学会正确地说话，这个女孩子可以在三个月内成功扮演使馆花园宴会的女公爵。

说不定我还可以给她找份工作，当一名贵夫人的侍女或商店的店员。

这些工作都要求英语说得好呢。

伊：你说啥来着？店员？这正是我想要做的，真的！
希：(不理睬她)你相信我说的话吗？
皮：当然相信！我自己就学了好多种印度语，而且……
希：真的吗？那你认不认得皮克林上校呢？
皮：当然认得，皮克林就是我。

那么请问你贵姓？
希：我是亨利·希金斯。

我还打算去印度见你呢。

皮：我也正是到英国来找你的！
伊：我呢？你们怎么帮助我呢？
希：啊，拿去吧。

(漫不经心地朝她的篮子里扔去一把钱)好老兄，我们该美美地庆祝一番了。

(一道离去)
伊：(惊奇地看着收集起来的钱)啊，我还从来没有见过。

整整一英镑呢！一笔财富呀！这的确给我帮大忙了。

明天我一定去找你，亨利·希金斯。

等着瞧吧！你那口(模仿他的声音)“真正的英语”……(用自己的声音)我倒要看看你能不能帮我找到……(离去)
