现代大学英语精读1 UNIT4 Midnight Visitor 课文翻译
2014101018第四单元Translation of Text A不速之客1 奥萨博与福勒所读过的书中关于特工的描述并不相副。
福勒很失望地跟着他一路走过阴暗的法国旅馆的走廊，在那里奥萨博租了一套房间。
那是一个位于六层的小房间，这种环境很难与这样一位传奇人物联系起来。
2 令他失望的是，首先，奥萨博是一个胖子，而且非常胖。
其次是他的口音，尽管他的法语和德语都还说的过去，但他仍然带有二十年前带到巴黎的新英格兰口音。
3 “你一定很失望”，奥萨博气喘吁吁的回过头说。
“别人说我是一个特工，一名间谍，周旋于间谍和危险之间。
你期望能见到我，因为你是一个年轻，浪漫的作家。
你本来以为今天晚上回碰见神秘人物，枪声，放在酒里的迷药。
4 “然而事情并不像你相象的那样，你在一个演奏法国音乐的餐厅同一个胖子度过了一个乏味的夜晚，而并没有黑眼睛的美女给他传递情报，只是打了个普通电话，将在他的房间里与人有个约会。
你一定已经无聊及了。
”胖男人边低声笑着边开门，并且站到一旁让他那位失望的客人进了房间。
5 “你的幻想破灭了，”奥萨博对他说。
“但是我年轻的朋友，振作起来。
一会儿你就会看到一分文件，这份相当重要的文件曾经让好几个人甘冒生命危险，送到我这儿后，我将把它转交给政府部门。
很快这份文件就很影响到历史的进程。
有点戏剧化，不是吗?”他边说，边随后关上了门。
然后打开灯。
6 当灯亮时，福勒这一天中第一次感到真正害怕了。
因为在房间的中间站着一个男人，手里拿着一只小型自动手枪。
7 奥萨博眨眨眼睛楞了一会儿。
8 “马克思”，他喘着气说，“你真让我吃惊，我以为你在柏林呢。
你在我房间里做什么?”9 马克思很单薄，个子不高，脸上的表情回让人想到狐狸。
要不是那支枪，他看上去并不是太危险。
10 “那分报告”，他低声说道。
“今天晚上将送到你手里的那分报告是有关一些新型导弹的。
我想我要把它从你受里拿走，在我手里比在你手里安全。
”11 奥萨博缓慢走到扶手椅，重重地坐在上面。
The-Midnight-Visitor-深夜访客(中英对照)
The Midnight Visitor 深夜访客Ausable did not fit the description of any secret agent Fowler had ever read about . Following him down the corridor of the gloomy French hotel where Ausable had a room , Fowler felt disappointed . It was a small room on the sixth floor ,and hardly a setting for a romantic figure .奥斯鲍根本不像书中见过的任何特工。
跟着他走在这个法国小旅馆昏暗的走廊上，方罗感到很失望。
奥斯鲍的房间在六楼，很狭小，一个浪漫的角色不应该是这样的背景。
Ausable was , for one thing , fat . Very fat . And then there was his accent . Though he spoke French and German passably , he had never altogether lost the New England accent he had brought to Paris from Boston twenty years ago .首先，奥斯鲍很肥，非常肥，讲话还带有浓重的口音。
他的法语和德语还说的过去，但二十年前从波斯顿带到巴黎的新英格兰口音还没舍得丢。
"You are disappointed ," Ausable said wheezily over his shoulder . "You were told that I was a secret agent , a spy , dealing in espionage and danger . You wished yo meet me because you are a writer , young and romantic . You thought you would have mysterious figures in the night , the crack of pistols , drugs in the wine .""你很失望吧，”奥斯鲍边走边气喘吁吁的说。
