英译汉原文:
The Tragedy of Climate Change
By Jennifer Wallace
【1】Tragedies on the stage take place over a limited period of time. The protagonist is presented with a dilemma. He makes a choice. Terrible consequences rapidly ensue. As soon as Macbeth kills King Duncan, he is damned—his drunken porter turns his castle into hell, and unnatural signs of turmoil, such as horses eating each other, follow that same night. So swift is the action in the Scottish play that Macbeth and his wife want to speed up time, doing the deed “quickly”, feeling the “future in the instant” or willing to “jump the life to come”. The play hurtles towards its conclusion as the prophecies of the three witches come to pass, with devastating neatness.
【2】But the tragedy of environmental disaster unfolds along a much more extended timescale. The bleaching of the coral reefs, the shrinking of the Arctic polar ice, the extreme droughts and floods taking place worldwide, are symptoms and portents of decisions already taken whose full consequences have not yet been felt.
【3】There is a time lag between carbon emissions and temperature rises: the one-degree increase in the global average temperature is a result of carbon emissions released 40 years ago, while the levels of carbon in the atmosphere right now—about 412 parts per million (ppm) and rising—are enough to cause two degrees of warming by the middle of the century.
【4】This trajectory is also complicated by the so-called climate-change feedback loop. Once the Earth is warmed by more than 2?C, the capacity of plants to absorb carbon dioxide through photosynthesis will be affected and they will start to puff the gas out instead of taking it in (the carbon feedback loop), causing temperatures to rise further.
【5】The tragic narrative of climate change is much lengthier than tragic plots in the theatre, and stretches the connections between cause and consequence, transgression and punishment. It resembles Prometheus, nailed to his rock in Aeschyluss play, knowing that centuries in the future his defiance will ensure the toppling of his enemy, Zeus. He knows the secret cause of Zeuss overthrow from prophetic signs he can detect in the here and now, but is reluctant to divulge it. So the immovable fate of Zeus and Prometheus turns out to be based upon Prometheuss will, and upon the brinkmanship between the two.
【6】Climate change is not our problem, we tell ourselves. It is for future generations to worry about. But if we view climate change as a tragic narrative that can be read and interpreted in the same way as an Aeschylean or Shakespearean play, then we might think about time, fate and individual responsibility differently.
【7】Tragic plots revolve around the moment when the hero makes the wrong choice. Macbeth kills the king; Oedipus murders his father; Prometheus steals fire from the gods. Fate plays a part in determining these decisions but each man also has free will and voluntarily enters into his chosen course of action. In Aeschyluss Oresteia, Agamemnon willingly puts his head into the “yoke of necessity”, uniting free will and destiny. Prometheus revels in his free will and capacity for defiance. These tragic narratives forge the connections between the individual and the world, between the small choices we each make and the huge, inevitable consequences they unleash.
【8】According to the writer and former soldier Roy Scranton, we have to treat existence as a tragedy to which we are stoically resigned. “We can learn to see each day as the death of what came before, freeing ourselves to deal with whatever problems the present offers without attachment or fear,” he writes.
【9】Nevertheless, there exists an alternative way to think about climate crisis. Aeschylus does not shy away from confronting the weakening power of human agency in the face of the vast inhuman forces of time, place and destiny. But still he leaves room in his dramatic vision of the world for contingency, for resistance and responsibility. Progress is dependent upon each characters knowledge and acknowledgement of the vagaries of self-deception or engagement.
【10】We are not “free” to detach ourselves, but rather remain vitally attached, through tragic witness, to those “crawling glaciers”, to those signs of the past, present and future and to our own capacity for action.
汉译英原文:
闻香识书(节选)
文/王鸿滨
【1】“书香”一词,古已有之。原指古人为防蠹虫咬食书籍,便在书中放置一种芸香草,这种草有一种清香之气,夹有这种草的书籍打开之后清香袭人,故而称之为“书香”,后常常被人们引申为读书风气。
【2】阅读所品味出的书香,是源自心灵的味道。是世间的人情冷暖,是丰富的道德情操,是悠久的文化传承,是壮丽的大好河山……每一本书,诉说的是一个故事,一种情怀。而每一个故事包含着不同的酸甜苦辣,每一种情怀包含着不同的理想!所以,我尊重每一本书,努力地去读懂它,品味它的那份真诚。
【3】古有“万般皆下品,唯有读书高”,今有“人生因书香而精彩,生命因书香而富有”。古有读书者悬梁刺股,凿壁借光,而今亦有“厕所被窝读书者”,这是对知识的渴望,亦是对生命的尊敬。不能说人生会因为没有读书而毫无意义,但可以确定人生会因为读书而绚丽多彩,人生的道路上,读书是一件多么高雅、多么纯洁的事情啊。
【4】上学时,最欢欣雀跃的日子,莫过于发新书的那天。崭新的课本,新鲜的知识……尤其是新书那特有的油墨香,格外吸引人。
【5】淡淡的墨香像淘气的精灵一样,在鼻翼前挑逗,让我们捧起了书,就再也放不下。那里,有江河大海的气息,有尘土月光的痕迹,有悲欢离合的滋味……心沉下去,情浮上来,眼睛打开了去,那或苦闷,或欢畅,或蹙眉,或拍案的萬千气象都奔涌而来。安静地坐在书桌前,看风起云涌,读花开花落,这是一种怎样的物我两忘境界啊!
【6】读书是一种修行,一种享受,它带给我们的是隽永的感受,恒久的动力,以及心灵的和平与精神的慰藉。当然,要做到这些,还需自我改变,也需要全社会共同营造读书的氛围。我们需要更多的图书馆、更多的阅读空间、更便捷的取阅方式,只有当我们真正体会了阅读的乐趣,而书籍又唾手可得时,我们才能做到:书香随身,书香随心。
