轻舟

From his window you could look across the San Marco Basin—with its unending flotilla of speedboats, gondolas, and water-buses called vaporetti—and beyond to the Piazza San Marco, epicenter of Venetian tourism.

你可以从他的窗户眺望圣马可湾──上面不断往来着成列的快艇、平底轻舟和水上巴士──以及更远处的圣马可广场，那儿就是威尼斯观光的中心。

The scroll actually shows more: the gentle swaying of water plants under the water, falling leaves slowly passing by your eyes, occasional rippling making the sky, the building, and the willow trees look as if they were full of power of life, suggestive of poetry and changeability. When the weather is cold and the ground is frozen, the scroll will also throw on an obscure veil, to hide everything. Sometimes however, quite unexpectedly, a light boat will swing out, so that you get surprised as if your observation of the world has been so negligent.

从这画卷中能看到的其实更多：幽幽地水草在水中招摇、漂落的树叶在眼前缓缓滑过，偶尔泛起的阵阵涟漪使得那天、那建筑、那柳树充满了生命的动感，变得奇幻且有诗意；天寒地冻的时候也会披上朦胧白纱，把一切都收藏起来；在你冷不防之际，荡出一叶轻舟，让你惊觉原来对世界的观察是如此的大意。

It also gives expression to the intoxicating delight the poet found in what nature had to offer and how he was heartened by the thought of going back home by a swift boat.

诗中既描写三峡风光和江水湍急的情景，也表达了诗人被自然的造化所陶醉，轻舟还乡的愉悦心情。

I'm strongly against the death penalty — it's an eye for an eye.

我不赞成死刑——这是以牙还牙的报复行为。

And to get you the support you need, we're enlisting all elements of our national power: our diplomacy and development, our economic might and our moral suasion, so that you and the rest of our military do not bear the burden of our security alone.

并给你们所须的支援，我们正徵召国家所有各种的力量：我们的外交及发展，我们的经济力量与道德劝说，所以你们与其他军人不须要孤独地负起国家安全的责任。
