令人宽慰的是，生活最终把卓别林先前没能获得的稳定和幸福给了他。

他找到了沃娜·奥尼尔·卓别林这个伴侣。

她的沉稳和深情跨越了他们之间37岁的年龄差距。

他们的年龄差别太大，以致当1942年他们要结婚时，新娘公布了他们的结婚日期后，为他们办理手续的官员问这位漂亮的17岁姑娘：“那个年轻人在哪儿？”──当时已经54岁的卓别林小心翼翼在外面等候着。

由于沃娜本人出生在一个被各种麻烦困扰的大家庭，她对卓别林生活中将面临的挑战也做好了充分准备，因为当时关于他俩有很多毫无根据的流言。

后来在他那个有那么多天才孩子的大家庭中，卓别林有时会引发争吵，而她则成了安宁的中心。

It's a relief to know that life eventually gave Charlie Chaplin the stable happiness it had earlier denied him. In Oona O'Neill Chaplin, he found a partner whose stability and affection spanned the 37 years age difference between them that had seemed so threatening that when the official who was marrying them in 1942, turned to the beautiful girl of 17 who'd given notice of their wedding date and said, "And where is the young man?" —Chaplin, then 54, had cautiously waited outside. As Oona herself was the child of a large family with its own problems, she was well-prepared for the battle that Chaplin's life became as unfounded rumors of Marxist sympathies surrounded them both — and, later on, she was the center of rest in the quarrels that Chaplin sometimes sparked in their own large family of talented children.2 他出生在伦敦南部的一个贫困地区。

他穿的短袜是从妈妈的红色长袜上剪下来的。

他的妈妈一度被诊断为精神失常。

狄更斯或许能创作出查理·卓别林的童年故事，但只有查理·卓别林才能塑造出了不起的喜剧角色“流浪汉”，这个使其创作者声名永驻的衣衫褴褛的小人物。

He was born in a poor area of south London. He wore his mother's old red stockings cut down for ankle socks. His mother was temporarily declared mad. Dickens might have created Charlie Chaplin's childhood. But only Charle Chaplin could have created the great comic character of " the Tramp ", the little man in rags who gave his creator permanent fame.3 人人都觉得福利救济对象是在骗人。

当我认识的许多坐轮椅的人面临与宠物猫分吃生猫食的窘境时，都会向福利机构多骗取几美元。

为了能领到一点额外的福利款，他们告诉政府说他们实际上少拿了200美元的养老金，或告诉社会工作者，说房东又将房租涨了100 美元。

我选择了过一种完全诚实的生活，因此我不会那样做，而是四处找活，揽些画漫画的活。

我甚至还告诉福利机构我赚了多少钱！哦，私下里领一笔钱当然对我挺有吸引力，但即使我挡不住这种诱惑，我投稿的那些大杂志也不会去给自己惹麻烦。

他们会保留我的记录，而这些记录会直接进入政府的电脑。

真是态度鲜明，毫不含糊。

A welfare client is supposed to cheat. Everybody expects it. Faced with sh aring a dinner of raw pet food with the cat, many people in wheelchairs Iknow bleed the system for a few extra dollars. They tell the government t hat they are getting two hundred dollars less than their real pension so the y can get a little extra welfare money. Or, they tell the caseworker that the landlord raised the rent by a hundred dollars.I have opted to live a life of complete honesty. So instead, I go out a nd drum up some business and draw cartoons. I even tell welfare how mu ch I make! Oh, I'm tempted to get paid under the table. But even if I yield ed to that temptation, big magazines are not going to get involved in some sticky situation. They keep my records, and that information goes right in to the government's computer. Very high-profile.4 如何逐渐脱离福利照顾，这在法律条款中没有明确规定。

我是一个独立的生意人，正在慢慢建立起自己的市场。

要脱离福利救济，一下子每月挣2, 000美元是不可能的。

但我很想自己负担部分生活费用，不必在每次需要为轮椅买点配件时都去尴尬地求人。

真需要有一位律师来捍卫福利救济对象的权利，因为这一福利体制不仅容易使福利提供者滥用权力，也很容易使救济对象滥用权力。

前几天，由于药剂师说我使用的医疗用品超出常量，于是福利部门派苏珊娜到我的住所调查。

我确实多用了，因为外科手术中切的排尿孔的大小改变了，尿袋的连接处发生渗漏。

There is no provision in the law for a gradual shift away from welfare.I am an independent businessman, slowly building up my market. It's imp ossible to jump off welfare and suddenly be making two thousand dollarsa month. But I would love to be able to pay for some of my living and not have to go through an embarrassing situation every time I need a spare p artfor my wheelchair.There needs to be a lawyer who can act as a champion for the rights o f welfare clients, because the system so easily lends itselfto abuse by the welfare givers as well as by the clients. Welfare sent Suzanne to look arou nd in my apartment the other day because the chemist said I was using a l arger than usual amount of medical supplies. I was, indeed: The hole that has been surgically cut to drain urine had changed size and the connection to my urine bag was leaking.5 一个将会大大提高发展中国家生活水准的转变正方兴未艾。

一些不久前还是信息闭塞的地方正在迅速获得最新的通信技术，这将促进他们吸纳国内外投资。

亚洲、拉丁美洲和东欧的许多国家也许需要10年时间来改善其交通、电力供应和其他公用设施。

但是只一根直径小于半毫米的光纤电缆就可以比由铜丝制成的粗电缆承载更多的信息。

由于安装了光纤电缆、数字转换器和最新的无线传输系统，从北京到布达佩斯的一系列城区和工业区正在直接步入信息时代。

一个蛛网般的数字和无线通信网络已经发展到亚洲的大部分地区和东欧的部分地区。

A transformation is occurring that should greatly boost living standards in the developing world. Places that until recently were deaf and dumb arerapidly acquiring up-to-date telecommunications that will let them promote both internal and foreign investment. It may take a decade for many countries in Asia, Latin America, and Eastern Europe to improve transportation, power supplies, and other utilities. But a single optical fiber with a diameter of less than half a millimeter can carry more information than a large cable made of copper wires. By installing optical fiber, digital switches, and the latest wireless transmission systems, a parade of urban centers and industrial zones from Beijing to Budapest are stepping directly into the Information Age. A spider's web of digital and wireless communication links is already reaching most of Asia and parts of Eastern Europe.6 对于那些长期落后的国家来说，一跃而名列前茅的诱惑难以抵御。
