Most Americans remember Mark Twain as the father of Huck Finn's idyllic cruise through eternal boyhood and Tom Sawyer's endless summer of freedom and adventure. In—deed, this nation's best-loved author was every bit as ad—venturous, patriotic, romantic, and humorous as anyone has ever imagined. I found another Twain as well – one who grew cynical, bitter, saddened by the profound personal tragedies life dealt him, a man who became obsessed with the frailties of the human race, who saw clearly ahead a black wall of night。

马克吐温 运气Mark Twain Luck

马克吐温 运气Mark Twain Luck

Mark TwainOur story today is called "Luck." It was written by Mark Twain. Here is Shep O'Neal with the story.I was at a dinner in London given in honor of one of the most celebrated English military men of his time. I do not want to tell you his real name and titles. I will just call him Lieutenant General Lord Arthur Scoresby.I cannot describe my excitement when I saw this great and famous man. There he sat, the man himself, in person, all covered with medals. I could not take my eyes off him. He seemed to show the true mark of greatness. His fame had no effect on him. The hundreds of eyes watching him, the worship of so many people, did not seem to make any difference to him.Next to me sat a clergyman, who was an old friend of mine. He was not always a clergyman. During the first half of his life he was a teacher in the military school at Woolwich. There was a strange look in his eye as he leaned toward me and whispered – "Privately – he is a complete fool." He meant, of course, the hero of our dinner.This came as a shock to me. I looked hard at my friend. I could not have been more surprised if he had said the same thing about Napoleon, or Socrates, or Solomon. But I was sure of two things about the clergyman. He always spoke the truth. And, his judgment of men was good. Therefore, I wanted to find out more about our hero as soon as I could.Some days later I got a chance to talk with the clergyman, and he told me more. These are his exact words:About forty years ago, I was an instructor in the military academy at Woolwich, when young Scoresby was given his first examination. I felt extremely sorry for him. Everybody answered the questions well, intelligently, while he – why, dear me – he did not know anything, so to speak. He was a nice, pleasant young man. It was painful to see him stand there and give answers that were miracles of stupidity.I knew of course that when examined again he would fail and be thrown out. So, I said to myself, it would be a simple, harmless act to help him as much as I could.I took him aside and found he knew a little about Julius Caesar's history. But, he did not know anything else. So, I went to work and tested him and worked him like a slave. I made him work, over and over again, on a few questions about Caesar, which I knew he would be asked.If you will believe me, he came through very well on the day of the examination. He got high praise too, while others who knew a thousand times more than he were sharply criticized. By some strange, lucky accident, he was asked no questions but those I made him study. Such an accident does not happen more than once in a hundred years.Well, all through his studies, I stood by him, with the feeling a mother has for adisabled child. And he always saved himself by some miracle.I thought that what in the end would destroy him would be the mathematics examination. I decided to make his end as painless as possible. So, I pushed facts into his stupid head for hours. Finally, I let him go to the examination to experience what I was sure would be his dismissal from school. Well, sir, try to imagine the result. I was shocked out of my mind. He took first prize! And he got the highest praise.I felt guilty day and night – what I was doing was not right. But I only wanted to make his dismissal a little less painful for him. I never dreamed it would lead to such strange, laughable results.I thought that sooner or later one thing was sure to happen: The first real test once he was through school would ruin him.Then, the Crimean War broke out. I felt that sad for him that there had to be a war. Peace would have given this d onkey a chance to escape from ever being found out as being so stupid. Nervously, Iwaited for the worst to happen. It did. He was appointed an officer. A captain, of all things! Who could have dreamed that they would place such a responsibility on such weak shoulders as his.I said to myself that I was responsible to the country for this. I must go with him and protect the nation against him as far as I could. So, I joined up with him. And away we went to the field.And there – oh dear, it was terrible. Mistakes, fearful mistakes – why, he never did anything that was right –nothing but mistakes. But, you see, nobody knew the secret of how stupid he really was. Everybody misunderstood his actions. They saw his stupid mistakes as works of great intelligence. They did, honestly!His smallest mistakes made a man in his right mind cry, and shout and scream too – to himself, of course. And what kept me in a continual fear was the fact that every mistake he made increased his glory and fame. I kept saying to myself that when at last they find out about him, it will be like the sun falling out of the sky.He continued to climb up, over the dead bodies of his superiors. Then, in the hottest moment of one battle down went our colonel. My heart jumped into my mouth, for Scoresby was the next in line to take his place. Now, we are in for it, I said...The battle grew hotter. The English and their allies were steadily retreating all over the field. Our regiment occupied a position that was extremely important. One mistake now would bring total disaster. And what did Scoresby do this time – he just mistook his left hand for his right hand...that was all. An order came for him to fall back and support our right. Instead, he moved forward and went over the hill to the left. We were over the hill before this insane movement could be discovered and stopped. And what did we find? A large and unsuspected Russian army waiting! And what happened – were we all killed? That is exactly what would have happened in ninety-nine cases out of a hundred. But no – those surprised Russians thought that no one regiment by itself would come around there at such a time.It must be the whole British army, they thought. They turned tail, away they went over the hill and down into the field in wild disorder, and we after them. In no time, there was the greatest turn around you ever saw. The allies turned defeat into a sweeping and shining victory.The allied commander looked on, his head spinning with wonder, surprise and joy. He sent right off for Scoresby, and put his arms around him and hugged him on the field in front of all the armies. Scoresby became famous that day as a great military leader – honored throughout the world. That honor will never disappear while history books last.He is just as nice and pleasant as ever, but he still does not know enough to come in out of the rain. He is the stupidest man in the universe.Until now, nobody knew it but Scoresby and myself. He has been followed, day by day, year by year, by a strange luck. He has been a shining soldier in all our wars for years. He has filled his whole military life with mistakes. Every one of them brought him another honorary title. Look at his chest, flooded with British and foreign medals. Well, sir, every one of them is the record of some great stupidity or other. They are proof that the best thing that can happen to a man is to be born lucky. I say again, as I did at the dinner, Scoresby's a complete fool.。

(完整word版)MarkTwain-MirrorofAmerica全文翻译

Most Americans remember Mark Twain as the father of Huck Finn’s idyllic cruise through eternal boyhood and Tom Sawyer's endless summer of freedom and adventure. In-deed, this nation's best—loved author was every bit as ad-venturous, patriotic, romantic, and humorous as anyone has ever imagined。

I found another Twain as well – one who grew cynical, bitter, saddened by the profound personal tragedies life dealt him, a man who became obsessed with the frailties of the human race, who saw clearly ahead a black wall of night. 在大多数美国人的心目中,马克•吐温是位伟大作家,他描写了哈克•费恩永恒的童年时代中充满诗情画意的旅程和汤姆•索亚在漫长的夏日里自由自在历险探奇的故事。

的确,这位美国最受人喜爱的作家的探索精神、爱国热情、浪漫气质及幽默笔调都达到了登峰造极的程度。

但我发现还有另一个不同的马克•吐温——一个由于深受人生悲剧的打击而变得愤世嫉俗、尖酸刻薄的马克•吐温,一个为人类品质上的弱点而忧心忡忡、明显地看到前途是一片黑暗的人。

Tramp printer, river pilot , Confederate guerrilla, prospector, starry-eyed optimist, acid-tongued cynic: The man who became Mark Twain was born Samuel Langhorne Clemens and he ranged across the nation for more than a third of his life, digesting the new American experience before sharing it with the world as writer and lecturer. He adopted his pen name from the cry heard in his steamboat days, signaling two fathoms (12 feet) of water -- a navigable depth。

I was at a dinner in London given in honor of one of the most celebrated1 English military men of his time. I do not want to tell you his real name and titles. I will just call him Lieutenant2 General Lord Arthur Scoresby.我出席了一次在伦敦举行的为当时最著名的英国军人举行的宴会。

我不想告诉你他真实的名字和头衔,我只想叫他阿瑟.斯考兹比爵士。

I cannot describe my excitement when I saw this great and famous man. There he sat, the man himself, in person, all covered with medals. I could not take my eyes off him. He seemed to show the true mark of greatness. His fame had no effect on him. The hundreds of eyes watching him, the worship of so many people, did not seem to make any difference to him.当我见到这位伟大而著名的人物的时候,兴奋之情无以言表。

他独自一人坐在那里,浑身戴满了勋章。

我的注意力无法从他身上挪开,他好象就是真正伟大的标志。

他的名望对他根本没什么影响,成百上千双敬佩的眼睛,那么多人的崇敬似乎对他没有一丝影响。

Next to me sat a clergyman, who was an old friend of mine. He was not always a clergyman. During the first half of his life he was a teacher in the military school at Woolwich. There was a strange look in his eye as he leaned toward me and whispered –“Privately –he is a complete fool.” He meant, of course, the hero of our dinner.坐在我旁边的是一位牧师,我的一位老朋友。

他并不是一直是个牧师,他的前半生在吾尔维希的军校当一名老师。

当他向我斜着身子轻声说话的时候,眼睛里有一种奇怪的表情:“别跟别人说,他是个十足的傻子。

”他,当然指的是宴会上的那位英雄。

This came as a shock to me. I looked hard at my friend. I could not have been more surprised if he had said the same thing about Napoleon, or Socrates, or Solomon.他的话使我感到很震惊。

这比他说拿破伦或者苏格拉底或者所罗门王是傻子更令我吃惊。

But I was sure of two things about the clergyman. He always spoke3 the truth. And, his judgment4 of men was good. Therefore, I wanted to find out more about our hero as soon as I could.Some days later I got a chance to talk with the clergyman, and he told me more. These are his exact words:但是,对于这位牧师,我有两点可以确信:他总是说实话和他对人的判断总是对的。

因此,我想尽快找出我们那位大英雄的更多的秘密。

几天以后,我找到了一个和这位牧师谈话的机会。

下面就是他跟我说的,原文是:About forty years ago, I was an instructor5 in the military academy at Woolwich, when young Scoresby was given his first examination. I felt extremely sorry for him. Everybody answered the questions well, intelligently, while he – why, dear me – he did not know anything, so to speak. He was a nice, pleasant young man. It was painful to see him stand there and give answers that were miracles of stupidity.大约四十年前,我在吾尔维希军事学院任教的时候,年轻的斯考兹比参加了他的第一次考试。

我感到他那么可怜,每个人都出色机智地回答了问题,而他----我的天,不知道为什么----也就是说,他什么也不知道。

他是个友善的、举止文雅的年轻人。

看着他象块木头一样站在那儿,净给出一些愚蠢的回答,真是一件痛苦的事。

I knew of course that when examined again he would fail and be thrown out. So, I said to myself, it would be a simple, harmless act to help him as much as I could.我当然知道,如果再考一次他还失败的话,他将会被开除了。

于是,我对自己说,我尽自己最大所能去帮助他,将是一件简单而无恶意的善事。

I took him aside and found he knew a little about Julius Caesar’s history. But, he did not know anything else. So, I went to work and tested him and worked him like a slave. I made him work, over and over again, on a few questions about Caesar, which I knew he would be asked.我把他带到一边,发现他知道有关凯撒的一点历史。

由于其它的东西他都不知道,我就开始逼着他象做苦工一样学习和检测。

我反复地让他学习一些我知道会用上的关于凯撒的问题。

If you will believe me, he came through very well on the day of the examination. He got high praise too, while others who knew a thousand times more than he were sharply criticized. By some strange, lucky accident, he was asked no questions but those I made him study. Such an accident does not happen more than once in a hundred years.请相信我,考试那天他出色地通过了,也得到了很高的赞赏。

那些知道的比他多一千倍的人也通过了考试。

出于奇妙而幸运的巧合,除了我教他的那些问题以外,别的什么都没有问道。

象这样的巧合,一百年也不会发生一次。

Well, all through his studies, I stood by him, with the feeling a mother has for a disabled child.And he always saved himself by some miracle.不过,虽然他学习的时候,我就象一位照顾有残疾的孩子的母亲一样待在他身边,他还是通过一些奇迹救了自己。

I thought that what in the end would destroy him would be the mathematics examination. I decided6 to make his end as painless as possible. So, I pushed facts into his stupid head for hours. Finally, I let him go to the examination to experience what I was sure would be his dismissal from school. Well, sir, try to imagine the result. I was shocked out of my mind. He took first prize! And he got the highest praise.我想最终会毁掉他的可能是数学。

我决定尽可能使他的结局没有痛苦。

我长时间地训练他,把知识硬塞进他那迟钝的脑壳。

我只在那些考官们最有可能提出的问题上训练和灌输他。

最后,我又让他吃了一些补脑药。

呵。

先生,你就尽力想象一下吧,我都被自己的智慧给震惊了,他得了一等奖!并且得到了最高奖励。

I felt guilty day and night – what I was doing was not right. But I only wanted to make his dismissal a little less painful for him. I never dreamed it would lead to such strange, laughable results.I thought that sooner or later one thing was sure to happen: The first real test once he was through school would ruin him.我日夜承受着良心的谴责----我所做的一切都是错误的,但是起初我只是想使他被开除的时候没那么痛苦。
