今天“高斋翻硕”给大家分享张培基译《最后一圈》节选的单词解析。
原文
人的一生好比马拉松赛跑。人人都有最后一圈，这一圈通常属于人生道路漫长的老人。七老八十的人，穿过艰难的世途，穿过芸芸众生，穿过重重障碍，于是到了人生的最后一圈。这一圈路程有长有短，跑得有快有慢。有的人稳健有力，从容不迫；有的人歪歪扭扭，步子不正；有的人拖拖沓沓，蹒跚不前。谁能跑好这最后一圈，谁就是胜利者。
张培基译文
Human life can be likened to the marathon race. All people, especially the aged who have already seen much of life, have the last lap.
Septuagenarians andoctogenarians are on the last lap of their lives after experiencing the twists and turns of life’s journey, meeting human beings of all descriptions and going through one obstacle after another.
The last lap may be long or short; the runners may be fast or slow. Some may run with firm and steady steps and self-possession; some may run very unsteadily and out of step; some may besluggish with faltering steps. Such people are doomed to failure. Whoeveracquits himself well on the last lap is a winner.
