實(shí)用英語(yǔ)專(zhuān)業(yè)八級(jí)翻譯習(xí)題

　　A young fellow recently finished the works of Thomas Carlyle, winding up, if we remember aright, with the ten note-books upon Frederick the Great. "What!" cried the young fellow, in consternation, "is there no more Carlyle? Am I left to the daily papers?" A more celebrated instance is that of Alexander, who wept bitterly because he had no more worlds to subdue. And when Gibbon had finished the DECLINE AND FALL, he had only a few moments of joy; and it was with a "sober melancholy" that he parted from his labours.

　　參考譯文:

　　最近，一位年輕人讀完了托馬斯*卡萊爾的著作。如果我沒(méi)記錯(cuò)的話(huà)，關(guān)于腓特列大帝的筆記他記了整整十本�！笆裁�？”這個(gè)年輕人驚恐地叫道：“沒(méi)有卡萊爾的'書(shū)可讀了？那我只能看看日?qǐng)?bào)了？”另一個(gè)比較有名的例子是亞歷山大，他因?yàn)橐褯](méi)有國(guó)家供他征服而號(hào)啕大哭。 當(dāng)吉本完成《羅馬帝國(guó)衰亡史》，也只不過(guò)高興了一時(shí)，然后帶著清醒而又抑郁的心情，他向往日的勞動(dòng)成果揮手作別。
