“We Two Grow Old ” Excerpt from "The Three Of Us" Written by Jiang Yang One night, I had a dream. Zhongshu and I were out on a walk together, talking and laughing, when we came to a place we did not know. The sun had set behind the mountains, and dusk was approaching. Then Zhongshu disappeared into the void. I searched everywhere but could find no trace of him. I called to him, but there was no answer. It was just me, alone, standing there in the wasteland not knowing where Zhongshu had gone. 有一晚，我做了一个梦。我和锺书一同散步，说说笑笑，走到了不知什么地方。太阳已经下山，黄昏薄幕，苍苍茫茫中，忽然锺书不见了。我四顾寻找，不见他的影踪。我喊他，没人应。只我一人，站在荒郊野地里，锺书不知到哪里去了。 I cried out to him, calling his full name, but my cries just fell into the wilderness without the faintest echo, as if they’d been swallowed. Complete silence added to the blackness of the night, deepening my loneliness and sense of desolation. 我大声呼喊，连名带姓地喊。喊声落在旷野里，好像给吞吃了似的，没留下一点依稀仿佛的音响。彻底的寂静，给沉沉夜色增添了分量，也加深了我的孤凄。 In the distance, I saw only layer upon layer of dusky dark. I was on a sandy road with a forest to one side. There was a murmuring brook; I couldn’t see how wide it was. 往前看去，是一层深似一层的昏暗。我脚下是一条沙土路，旁边有林木，有潺潺流水，看不清楚溪流有多么宽广。 When I turned to look back, I saw what appeared to be a cluster of houses. It was an inhabited place, but since I couldn’t see any lights, I thought they must be quite far away. 向后看去，好像是连片的屋宇房舍，是有人烟的去处，但不见灯火，想必相离很远了。 Had Zhongshu gone home on his own? Then I’d better go home too! Just as I was looking for the way back, an old man appeared, pulling an empty rickshaw. I hurried over to bar his way, and sure enough he stopped, but I couldn’t tell him where I wanted to go. In the midst of my desperation, I woke up. Zhongshu lay next to me in bed, sound asleep. 锺书自顾自先回家了吗？我也得回家呀。我正待寻觅归路，忽见一个老人拉着一辆空的黄包车，忙拦住他。他倒也停了车。可是我怎么也说不出要到哪里去，惶急中忽然醒了。锺书在我旁边的床上睡得正酣呢。 I tossed and turned for the rest of the night, waiting for Zhongshu to wake up; then I told him about what happened in my dream. I reproached him: How could you have abandoned me like that, leaving on your own without a word to me? 我转侧了半夜等锺书醒来，就告诉他我做了一个梦，如此这般；于是埋怨他怎么一声不响地撇下我自顾自走了。 Zhongshu didn’t try to defend the Zhongshu of my dream. He only consoled me by saying: this is an old person’s dream. He often had it too. Yes, I’ve had this sort of dream many times. The setting may differ, but the feeling is the same. Most often the two of us emerge from some place, then, in the blink of an eye, he’s gone. 锺书并不为我梦中的他辩护，只安慰我说：那是老人的梦，他也常做。是的，这类的梦我又做过多次，梦境不同而情味总相似。往往是我们两人从一个地方出来，他一晃眼不见了。 I ask after him everywhere, but nobody pays any attention to me. 我到处问询，无人理我。 Sometimes I search for him everywhere but end up in a succession of alleys, all with dead ends. Sometimes I am alone in a dimly lit station, waiting for the last train, but the train never comes. In every dream I am lonely and desperate. If only I could find him, I think, we could go home together. 我或是来回寻找，走入一连串的死胡同，或独在昏暗的车站等车，等那末一班车，车也总不来。梦中凄凄惶惶，好像只要能找到他，就能一同回家。 Zhongshu probably remembered my reproach, and caused this dream to be ten thousand miles long. (Translated by Jesse Field) 锺书大概是记着我的埋怨，叫我做了一个长达万里的梦。 http://www.cuhk.edu.hk/rct/renditions/sample/b76_1.html…

「趣配音悦己达人」大家好，我是Lewis，在扬州给大家晨读！今早读 “A VERY SHORT STORY” BY Ernest Hemingway 《小小说》作者海明威 One hot evening in Padua they carried him up onto the roof and he could look out over the top of the town. There were chimney swifts in the sky. After a while it got dark and the searchlights came out. The others went down and took the bottles with them. He and Luz could hear them below on the balcony. Luz sat on the bed. She was cool and fresh in the hot night. Luz stayed on night duty for three months. They were glad to let her. When they operated on him she prepared him for the operating table; and they had a joke about friend or enema. He went under the anæsthetic holding tight on to himself so he would not blab about anything during the silly, talky time. After he got on crutches he used to take the temperatures so Luz would not have to get up from the bed. There were only a few patients, and they all knew about it. They all liked Luz. As he walked back along the halls he thought of Luz in his bed. Before he went back to the front they went into the Duomo and prayed. It was dim and quiet, and there were other people praying. They wanted to get married, but there was not enough time for the banns, and neither of them had birth certificates. They felt as though they were married, but they wanted everyone to know about it, and to make it so they could not lose it. 在帕多瓦，一个炎热的傍晚，他们把他抬到屋顶上去，让他可以平眺全城的顶层。天上有飞燕。过了片刻天黑了，探照灯亮了。另外的人下去了，随身带走了酒瓶。他和卢芝听得见他们在下面阳台上。卢芝坐在床上。在炎热的夜晚，她倒凉快。卢芝坚持做了三个月夜班。人家乐得让她做。人家给他动手术，她替他准备了手术台，人家都在讲是朋友还是灌肠剂的笑话。他虽上了麻药，还硬挺着，免得在失去知觉、多嘴多舌的时刻说漏了嘴。他用了拐杖以后，自己就常去量体温，免得卢芝铺床。他回到前线去之前，他们到大教堂里去祈祷。教堂里暗沉沉，静悄悄，还有别人在祈祷。他们想要结婚，可是来不及请教堂公布结婚预告了，而且两个人都没有出生证。他们感到两人好象结了婚似的，不过他们要大家都知道这事，要让事情办成，这样就不怕它吹了。注释： 1.
