2、短文翻译

I agree to some extent with my imaginary English reader. American literary historians are perhaps prone to view their own national scene too narrowly, mistaking prominence for uniqueness. They do over-phrase their own literature, or certainly its minor figures. And Americans do swing from aggressive over-phrase of their literature to an equally unfortunate, imitative deference. But then, the English themselves are somewhat insular in their literary appraisals. Moreover, in fields where they are not pre-eminent — e. g. in painting and music —they too alternate between boasting of native products and copying those of the Continent. How many English paintings try to look as though they were done in Paris; how many times have we read in articles that they really represent an “English tradition” after all.

在一定程度上，我赞同这位虚构的英国读者的观点。美国的文学史工作者也许惯于过分狭隘地看待本国文坛，误将显著当独特。他们的确过分渲染本国文学，至少对二流的作家肯定会吹捧。美国人确实也走极端，要么咄咄逼人，对本国文学大肆渲染，要么亦步亦趋，对别国文学顶礼膜拜。这两种做法同样的不幸。话又说回来，英国人自己在文学鉴赏方面也显得有些孤陋寡闻。而且，在诸如绘画音乐这些本国没有杰出成就的领域里，他们也走极端，要么吹嘘本国的作品，要么模仿大陆上的作品。试想，有多少幅英国画试图做得让人看上去像是在巴黎绘的；我们又有多少次读到他们的作品真正代表着一种“英国式的传统”呢？

To speak of American literature, then, is not to assert that it is completely unlike that of Europe. Broadly speaking, America and Europe have kept step. At any given moment the traveler could find examples in both of the same architecture, the same styles in dress, the same books on the shelves. Ideas have crossed the Atlantic as freely as men and merchandise, though sometimes more slowly. When I refer to American habit, thoughts, etc., I intend some sort of qualification to precede the word, for frequently the difference between America and Europe (especially England) will be one of degree, sometimes only of a small degree. The amount of divergence is a subtle affair, liable to perplex the Englishman when he looks at America. He is looking at a country which in important senses grew out of his own, which in several ways still resembles his own —and which is yet a foreign country. There are odd overlappings and abrupt unfamiliarities; kinship yields to a sudden alienation, as when we hail a person across the street, only to discover from his blank response that we have mistaken a stranger for a friend.

说到美国文学，并非意欲断言，它与欧洲文学全然不同。广而言之，美国与欧洲一直步伐一致。任何时刻，旅行者在两地均能看到同样的建筑，款式相同的服饰，相同的书籍。思想如同人员与货物往来一样，自由地横跨大西洋，不过有时会稍微慢一些。当我说美国习惯、美国思想等时，我只想在这一词汇前加上某种修饰语，因为，欧美（尤其是英美）之间的差异往往只是程度上的差异，而且有时候微乎其微。差异的多少至精至细，很容易使英国人对美国迷惑不解。他所看的那个国家，从某些重要的意义上来说，脱胎于他自己的国家，并在某些方面与他自己的国家相差无几——然而，它却实实在在是一个异邦。两个国家，既有重叠，也有陌生，重叠使人颇感奇怪，陌生令人觉着突如其来：亲戚一下子变做陌生路人。犹如我们向马路对面的某个行人打招呼，结果出乎意料，那人表情漠然，原来，我们误把陌路当友人。
