新标准大学英语第一册Unit6译文
Active reading (1)梦想成真当夜幕降临悉尼时，雨也开始悄悄地从夜空中飘落。
几百盏灯把澳大利亚体育场照得灯光火通明，场内的声音震耳欲聋。
走向跑道时我看了一眼四周看台上无数的脸，但我的注意力还是很集中。
再过几分钟奥运金牌的归属就要见分晓了，它悬挂在远处，很诱人。
我的心在剧烈地跳动，口干舌燥，肾上腺素猛增。
童年的梦想就要实现了，这种感觉真是太奇妙了：令人非常兴奋，又胆战心惊。
我知道，为了确保能梦想成真我必须强迫自己超越已知的极限。
我极力保持镇静，告诫自己不要紧张，要坚持按原计划做，按自己的节奏跑。
我知道那些俄罗斯姑娘起跑很快——这场比赛我落后俄罗斯运动员叶莲娜·普罗科霍洛娃不能超过十秒。
如果我做到这一点，冠军就是我的了。
我望着四百米跑道的起跑点，屏住了呼吸。
这些年来，在世锦赛、英联邦锦标赛以及欧洲锦标赛的八百米赛跑中我屡战屡败，饱受挫折。
现在，它再次横在我与奥运冠军头衔之间。
我的英国支持者在为我欢呼，声音特别大，就好像看台上只有他们是我的狂热支持者。
我听到他们喊我的名字，为我鼓劲加油，听到他们充满希望的呐喊。
宽阔美丽的体育场上到处飘扬着大不列颠联合王国的国旗，我感觉自己和观众融为了一体：我们有着同样的期盼，同样的梦想。
几个小时前，我的脚踝在跳远时受了伤，缠上了绷带，但是我忘掉伤痛，尽量把注意力集中在观众身上。
他们的叫喊声势浩大，使我精神振奋，我感到镇定自若。
我知道自己会全力以赴，拼尽全力跑完全程。
我感觉自己已经进入最佳状态。
我只要跑两圈就行了，就两圈。
跑完这两圈，过去两天以及28年来所有情感和身体上的辛苦付出就将被胜利或者失败所淹没。
这一跑真是生死攸关。
我不断地告诉自己：也就是跑两分钟，谁都能跑两分钟。
发令枪响了，比赛正式开始。
第二圈还好，我跟其他人跑得一样快，但我觉得比平时要累得多，比我预想的要累得多。
这次锦标赛赛前长达数周的艰苦训练以及这两天激烈的比赛所带来的疲劳在我的赛跑过程中显现出来。

Audrey gained immediate prominence in the US with her role in Roman Holiday in 1953. This film turned out to be a smashing success as she won an Oscar as Best Actress. This gained her enormous popularity and more plum roles. One of the reasons for her popularity was the fact that she was so elf（小精灵，小妖精）like and had class, unlike the sex-goddesses of the time. Roman Holiday was followed by another similarly wonderful performance in the 1957 classic Funny Face. Sabrina in 1954, for which she received another Academy nomination, and Love in the Afternoon in 1957, also garnered（收藏，储藏）rave （大加赞赏）reviews. In 1959, she received yet another nomination for her role in Nun's Story. Audrey reached the pinnacle（顶峰）of her career when she played Holly Golightly in the delightful film, Breakfast at Tiffany's in 1961. For this she received another nomination.
