长篇小说《飘》是美国女作家玛格丽特·米切尔的代表作,这部小说在当时风靡了整个美国,后来被世界的读者所熟知。下面是我带来的英语经典段落加翻译，欢迎阅读!
那是一个很暖的春天夜晚，在萨凡纳的一家酒店，邻座的一位生客的偶尔谈话引起灰拉尔德的侧耳细听。那位生客是萨凡纳本地人，在内地居住了十二年之后刚刚回来。他是从一位圣·在州里举办的抽彩分配土地时的一个获奖者。原来杰拉尔德来到美洲前一年，印第安人放弃了佐治亚中部广大的一起土地，佐治亚州当局便以这种方式进行分配。他迁徙到了那里，并建立了一个农场，但是现在他的房子因失火被烧掉了，他对那个可诅咒的"地方"，已感到厌烦，因此很乐意将它脱手。
Gerald, his mind never free of the thought of owning a plantation of his own, arranged anintroduction, and his interest grew as the stranger told how the northern section of the statewas filling up with newcomers from the Carolinas and Virginia. Gerald had lived in Savannah longenough to acquire a viewpoint of the Coast—that all of the rest of the state wasbackwoods, with an Indian lurking in every thicket.
杰拉尔德心里一直没有放弃那个念头，想拥有一个自己的农场，于是经过介绍，他同那个陌生人谈起来，而当对方告诉他，那个州的北部已经从卡罗来纳的弗吉尼亚涌进了大批大批的新人时，他的兴趣就更大了。杰拉尔德在萨凡纳已住了很久，了解了海滨人的观点，即认为这个州的其余部分都是嬷嬷的森林地带，每个灌木丛中都潜伏着印第安人。
As the night wore on and the drinks went round, there came a time when all the others in the game laid down their hands and Gerald and the stranger were battling alone. The strangershoved in all his chips and followed with the deed to his plantation. Gerald shoved in all his chips and laid on top of them his wallet.
夜渐渐深了，酒斟了一巡又一巡，这时其他几个牌友都歇手了，只剩下杰拉尔德和陌生人在继续对赌。陌生人把所有的筹码全部押上，外加那个农场的文契。杰拉尔德也推出他的那堆筹码，并把钱装放在上面。
If the money it contained happened to belong to the firm of O’Hara Brothers, Gerald’sconscience was not sufficiently troubled to confess it before Mass the following morning. He knew what he wanted, and when Gerald wanted something he gained it by taking the most direct route. Moreover, such was his faith in his destiny and four deuces that he never for a moment wondered just how the money would be paid back should a higher hand be laid down across the table.
如果钱袋里装的恰好是"奥哈拉兄弟公司"的款子，杰拉尔德第二天早晨作弥撒时也不会觉得良心不安而表示忏悔了。他懂得自己所要的是什么，而当他需要时便断然采取最直截了当的手段来攫取它。况且，他是那样相信自己的命运和手中的那几张牌，所以从来就不考虑：要是桌子对面放在是一手更高的牌呢，那他将怎样偿还这笔钱呀?
“It’s no bargain you’re getting and I am glad not to have to pay more taxes on the place,”sighed the possessor of an “ace full,” as he called for pen and ink. “The big house burned a year ago and the fields are growing up in brush and seedling pine. But it’s yours.”
“你这不是靠买卖赚来的，而我呢，也乐得不用再给那地方纳税了，"陌生人叹了口气说，一面叫拿笔墨来。"那所大房子是一年前烧掉的，田地呢，已长满了灌木林和小松树。然而，这些都是你的了。”
“Never mix cards and whisky unless you were weaned on Irish poteen,” Gerald told Porkgravely the same evening, as Pork assisted him to bed. And the valet, who had begun toattempt a brogue out of admiration for his new master, made requisite answer in acombination of Geechee and County Meath that would have puzzled anyone except thosetwo alone.
“千万不要把玩牌和威士忌混为一谈，除非你早就戒酒了，"当天晚上波克服侍杰拉尔德上床睡觉时，杰拉尔德严肃地对他这样说，这位管家由于崇拜主人正开始在学习一种土腔，便用一种基希和米思郡的混合腔调作了必要的回答，当然这种腔调只有他们两个人理解，别人听来是莫名其妙的。
The muddy Flint River, running silently between walls of pine and water oak covered withtangled vines, wrapped about Gerald’s new land like a curving arm and embraced it on twosides.
浑浊的弗林特河在一排排松树和爬满藤萝的水橡树中间悄悄地流着，像一条弯屈的胳臂走过杰拉尔德的那片新地，从两侧环抱着它。
To Gerald, standing on the small knoll where the house had been, this tall barrier of green wasas visible and pleasing an evidence of ownership as though it were a fence that he himselfhad built to mark his own.
杰拉尔德站在那个原来有的房子的小小圆丘上，对他来说，这道高高的绿色屏障既是他的所有权的一个看得见的可喜的证明，又好像是他亲手建造用来作为私有标志的一道篱笆。

============================MARY SHELLEY, Frankenstein ...============================Nothing contributes so much to tranquillize the mind as a steady purpose--a point on which the soul may fix its intellectual eye. --Letter 1We are unfashioned creatures, but half made up. --Letter 4You seek for knowledge and wisdom, as I once did; and I ardently hope that the gratification of your wishes may not be a serpent to sting you, as mine has been. --Letter 4Curiosity, earnest research to learn the hidden laws of nature, gladness akin to rapture, as they were unfolded to me, are among the earliest sensations I can remember. --Chapter 2No human being could have passed a happier childhood than myself. My parents were possessed by the very spirit of kindness and indulgence. We felt that they were not the tyrants to rule our lot according to their caprice, but the agents and creators of all the many delights which we enjoyed. --Chapter 2The labours of men of genius, however erroneously directed, scarcely ever fail in ultimately turning to the solid advantage of mankind. --Chapter 3Life and death appeared to me ideal bounds, which I should first break through, and pour a torrent of light into our dark world. --Chapter 3Learn from me, if not by my precepts, at least by my example, how dangerous is the acquirement of knowledge and how much happier that man is who believes his native town to be the world, than he who aspires to become greater than his nature will allow. --Chapter 4It was already one in the morning; the rain pattered dismally against the panes, and my candle was nearly burnt out, when, by the glimmer of the half-extinguished light, I saw the dull yellow eye of the creature open ... --Chapter 4The different accidents of life are not so changeable as the feelings of human nature. I had worked hard for nearly two years, for the sole purpose of infusing life into an inanimate body. For this I had deprived myself of rest and health. I had desired it with an ardor that far exceeded moderation; but now that I had finished, the beauty of the dream vanished, and breathless horror and disgust filled my heart. Unable to endure the aspect of the being I had created, I rushed out of the room. --Chapter 4How can I describe my emotions at this catastrophe, or how delineate the wretch whom with such infinite pains and care I had endeavoured to form? His limbs were in proportion, and I had selected his features as beautiful. Beautiful! -- Great God! His yellow skin scarcely covered the work of muscles and arteries beneath; his hair was of a lustrous black, and flowing; his teeth of a pearly whiteness; but these luxuriances only formed a more horrid contrast with his watery eyes, that seemed almost of the same colour as the dun white sockets in which they were set, his shrivelled complexion and straight black lips. --Chapter 5While I watched the tempest, so beautiful yet terrific, I wandered on with a hasty step. This noble war in the sky elevated my spirits; I clasped my hands, and exclaimed aloud, 'William, dear angel! this is thy funeral, this thy dirge!' --Chapter 7A flash of lightning illuminated the object, and discovered its shape plainly to me; its gigantic stature, and the deformity of its aspect, more hideous than belongs to humanity, instantly informed me that it was the wretch, the filthy demon, to whom I had given life. --Chapter 7All men hate the wretched; how then, must I be hated, who am miserable beyond all living things! Yet you, my creator, detest and spurn me, they creature, to whom thou art bound by ties only dissoluble by the annihilation of one of us. --Chapter 10I am alone and miserable; man will not associate with me; but one as deformed and horrible as myself would not deny herself to me. My companion must be of the same species and have the same defects. This being you must create. --Chapter 15You can blast my other passions, but revenge remains -- revenge, henceforth dearer than light of food! I may die, but first you, my tyrant and tormentor, shall curse the sun that gazes on your misery. --Chapter 20Life is obstinate and clings closest where it is most hated. --Chapter 23The companions of our childhood always possess a certain power over our minds which hardly any later friend can obtain. They know our infantine dispositions, which, however they may be afterwards modified, are never eradicated. --Chapter 24Seek happiness in tranquility and avoid ambition, even if it be only the apparently innocent one of distinguishing yourself in science and discoveries. --Chapter 24Oh! Be men, or be more than men. Be steady to your purposes and firm as a rock. This ice is not made of such stuff as your hearts may be; it is mutable and cannot withstand you if you say that it shall not. --Chapter 24

1、if God had gifted me with some beauty and much wealth, I should have made it as hard for you to leave me, as it is now for me to leave you.
