* The mayor of Toledo said in 1932, “I have seen thousands of these defeated, discouraged, hopeless men and women, cringing and fawning as they come to ask for public aid. It is a spectacle of national degradation.” (W. Manchester: The Glory and the Dream ) 托莱多市长在1932年说过：“我见到成千上万山穷水尽、灰心绝望的男男女女前来请求救济。他们低声下气，苦苦哀求。此情此景，真是丢尽了美国的脸。 威廉·曼彻斯特：《光荣与梦想》 I repair to the enchanted house, where there are lights, chattering, music, flowers, officers and the eldest Miss Larkins, a blaze of beauty. (Charles Dickens, David Copperfield) 我现在朝着那家仙宫神宇走去，那儿灯火辉煌、人语嘈杂、乐音悠扬、花草缤纷、军官纷来，还有拉钦斯大小姐，真是仪态万千。 Dairyman Crick’s household maids and men lived on comfortably, placidly, even merrily. (Thomas Hardy, Tess of the D’urbervilles) 克里克老板牛奶厂里的男男女女，都过得舒舒服服、平平静静，甚至于还嘻嘻笑笑、闹闹嚷嚷。 Eisenhower later recalled, when MacArhtur felt slighted he was capable of expressing himself in “an explosive denunciation of politics, bad manners, bad judgment, broken promise, arrogance, unconstitutionality, insensitivity, and the way the world had gone to hell.” (The Glory and the Dream) 艾森豪威尔后来回忆往事时说, 只要麦克阿瑟感到有人对他不够尊重，就“发起脾气来，破口大骂人家好耍权术，不懂礼貌，乱出主意，出尔反尔，狂妄自大，违反宪法，神经迟钝，麻木不仁，如今世道真是见鬼，等等。” One of Major Eisenhower’s friends was Brigadier George Moseley, whom Eisenhower later described as “a brilliant” and “dynamic” officer “always delving into new ideas.” (Ibid) 陆军准将乔治·莫斯利是艾森豪威尔少校的朋友。艾森豪威尔后来说他是个“才气横溢”、“生气勃勃”、“富于创见”的人。 He was canny, openhanded, brisk, candid, and modest. (Ibid) 他为人聪明大方，生气勃勃，忠厚耿直，谦虚谨慎。 精明的、谨慎的 敏锐的、轻快地 Wartime Marseilles was such a bubbling stew of political double-dealing, financial corruption, racial and nationalist crisscrossings, refugee agonies, and tragedies, and Mediterranean finagling dating back to Phoenician times, that compared to Gaither’s daily grind, melodramas and spy yarns paled. (Herman Wouk: War and Remembrance) 战争年头的马赛本来就已成一锅上下翻腾的大杂烩；政治上狗苟蝇营，钱财上的巧取豪夺，种族和国籍的混淆纠缠，背乡离井的难民们苦难和悲剧，以及从腓尼基人时代以来就已盛行在地中海沿岸的尔虞我诈、勾心斗角，所以和盖瑟的例行公事相比起来，什么离奇曲折的剧情和阴险诡谲的故事都要黯然失色。 十字形；矛盾 日常工作、例行苦事 耸人听闻的事件、闹剧 纱线；用纱线缠 In the savage
