第五篇：大英4泛讀翻譯Book4

2．不確定的未來(lái)

從中國(guó)人踏上美國(guó)國(guó)土的那一刻起，他們的夢(mèng)想就變成了美國(guó)夢(mèng)。他們?cè)诩永Ｄ醽喌膲m土中爭(zhēng)奪金子，他們渴望擁有自己的土地與事業(yè)，渴望通過(guò)戰(zhàn)斗，使自己的孩子與美國(guó)小孩一樣，在學(xué)校里受教育。美國(guó)華裔們與大部分移民一樣，來(lái)這兒是為了逃離戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)與饑荒，遠(yuǎn)離迫害與貧窮。又與其他移民的后裔一般，他們的子孫開(kāi)始稱美國(guó)為“祖國(guó)”。

如果美國(guó)除去華裔們?yōu)槠淙〉玫某删?，那它將不?huì)成為今日之美國(guó)。一代又一代的華裔子孫，為將美國(guó)建設(shè)成當(dāng)?shù)目涨笆r而奮斗。他們?yōu)閮?nèi)戰(zhàn)而搏，建造的鐵路使整個(gè)國(guó)家融為一體。華裔們?cè)缙诘恼x之戰(zhàn)，為隨后的民權(quán)運(yùn)動(dòng)奠定了新的法律基礎(chǔ)。他們?yōu)槊绹?guó)制成了首個(gè)火箭并幫助其贏得了冷戰(zhàn)。在硅谷和其他地方，他們的貢獻(xiàn)使美國(guó)在信息時(shí)代建立并保持其優(yōu)勢(shì)地位。今天這些華裔分散在每個(gè)我們可想象的行業(yè)中：有投資者，教師，作者，醫(yī)生，工程師，律師，首席執(zhí)行官，社會(huì)工作者，會(huì)計(jì)，建筑師，警察，消防員，演員和宇航員。

可悲的是，盡管這么長(zhǎng)時(shí)間的貢獻(xiàn)，許多華裔在美國(guó)仍然被當(dāng)成外國(guó)人。大部分新移民者將會(huì)遭遇這樣的嘲笑：“從哪兒來(lái)回哪兒去吧！”就像有人說(shuō)的，美國(guó)華裔們就像客人一樣呆在其他人屋子里，不能將腳放在桌子上，不能得到真正的放松。中式口音與文化傳統(tǒng)可能會(huì)消失，但我們的皮膚顏色與眼睛形狀卻無(wú)法改變。

這些特性讓一些人理所當(dāng)然地將美國(guó)華人視為異類，自然也就稱不上是純正的美國(guó)人了。美國(guó)大眾媒體把美國(guó)華人模式化，把他們描繪成與生俱來(lái)就與美國(guó)人不同，無(wú)法改變。因而美國(guó)華人的美國(guó)化被這種輕而易舉但帶有欺騙性的模式化蒙上了陰影。

用人類的觀點(diǎn)來(lái)看，什么是造成這種不和的因素呢？一個(gè)在加利福尼亞洲，西柯汶納的本地委員會(huì)成員，有人在電話里對(duì)他說(shuō)：“哇，你完全就像一個(gè)真正的美國(guó)人，一點(diǎn)兒都沒(méi)有中式口音。”醫(yī)學(xué)電視劇中美籍華人醫(yī)生不多，事實(shí)上，美國(guó)每六個(gè)醫(yī)生中就有一個(gè)是亞裔美國(guó)人。

1999年6月，劉云平出生于俄亥俄州，在加利福尼亞讀大學(xué)，在華盛頓郵報(bào)上介紹了他做美國(guó)空軍上尉時(shí)的一個(gè)小故事：

“你是中國(guó)空軍嗎？”旁邊一位穿著得體的女士問(wèn)道。這個(gè)問(wèn)題讓我一時(shí)說(shuō)不出話來(lái)。要知道我們是在一個(gè)頒獎(jiǎng)晚宴上，而我正驕傲地穿著美國(guó)空軍的藍(lán)色制服，佩戴著上尉軍銜以及各種勛章和獎(jiǎng)牌。因此她的問(wèn)題使我有些惱怒，也讓我意識(shí)到就算美國(guó)空軍的藍(lán)色制服也不足以徹底改變她最初的想法，即亞洲上的黃種人從某些方面來(lái)說(shuō)不算是美國(guó)人。

我希望這只是個(gè)獨(dú)立的小插曲。但遺憾的是，時(shí)至今日美國(guó)仍然有很多人將美國(guó)華裔視作在美國(guó)的外國(guó)人??身為美國(guó)空軍的一名長(zhǎng)官，有一天我或許會(huì)被要求將生命獻(xiàn)給我的國(guó)家。如果有人依然對(duì)我所說(shuō)的“我的國(guó)家”代表著什么抱有疑問(wèn)的話，那將是我的恥辱。

只需對(duì)每個(gè)中國(guó)出身的美國(guó)名人有淺薄的了解，你就會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)，不管他們?nèi)〉昧硕嗝醋吭降某删停瑢?duì)美國(guó)社會(huì)有著多大的貢獻(xiàn)，事實(shí)上他們每個(gè)人的身份或多或少都受到過(guò)質(zhì)疑。

宗毓華是美國(guó)歷史上第二個(gè)網(wǎng)絡(luò)晚間新聞播報(bào)的女性聯(lián)合主持，她在那樣一種不受歡迎的新聞編輯室的氛圍里挺了過(guò)來(lái)。作為極少數(shù)的女性之一已經(jīng)夠糟了，然而她說(shuō)：“早期在哥倫比亞廣播系統(tǒng)時(shí)，71年到76年，我被稱作‘黃色新聞佬’——有些話語(yǔ)已經(jīng)明顯涉及了種族問(wèn)題?！钡堑搅撕笃?，1990年，有一個(gè)叫做克里夫·金凱德的華盛頓廣播主持人直接稱她為“宗國(guó)佬”。

林瓔現(xiàn)在是美國(guó)最負(fù)盛名的女性建筑師，而1980年當(dāng)她還是一個(gè)耶魯大學(xué)沒(méi)畢業(yè)的學(xué)生時(shí)，她因贏得了在華盛頓舉辦的全國(guó)的越戰(zhàn)紀(jì)念碑設(shè)計(jì)方案的征集而被惡意攻擊?！霸趺茨茏屢粋€(gè)外國(guó)佬來(lái)設(shè)計(jì)越戰(zhàn)紀(jì)念碑？”一些越戰(zhàn)老兵質(zhì)疑道，“為何能容忍一個(gè)美籍亞裔女人為在亞洲發(fā)生的戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)中犧牲的美國(guó)人民設(shè)計(jì)紀(jì)念碑？”

在1998年的奧林匹克運(yùn)動(dòng)會(huì)上，當(dāng)美國(guó)花樣滑冰選手關(guān)穎珊在她的隊(duì)友塔拉·利平斯基后面第二個(gè)完成比賽時(shí)，微軟聯(lián)網(wǎng)新聞的頭條報(bào)道到：“美國(guó)人打敗了關(guān)穎珊”。

許多美籍華裔對(duì)媒體自動(dòng)將她歸于外國(guó)人這一舉動(dòng)十分憤怒，而事實(shí)上，關(guān)穎珊在美國(guó)出生，在美國(guó)受到教育，也是在美國(guó)接受溜冰訓(xùn)練。四年過(guò)去，這個(gè)錯(cuò)誤在關(guān)穎珊輸給薩拉?休斯與金牌擦肩而過(guò)時(shí)再一次重演，因西雅圖時(shí)報(bào)副標(biāo)題稱“美國(guó)人大爆滑冰冷門，使關(guān)穎珊和斯路斯卡婭相形見(jiàn)絀”。

1998年，職為加利福利亞洲的財(cái)務(wù)長(zhǎng)鄺杰靈在競(jìng)選聯(lián)邦議員時(shí)，有記者盤(pán)問(wèn)他說(shuō)，如果爆發(fā)中美戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)，他會(huì)支持中國(guó)還是支持美國(guó)。鄺杰靈是第四代華裔，他的母親余江月桂女士，是首位任職加州政府秘書(shū)長(zhǎng)的女性美籍華裔。鄺杰靈無(wú)從回答輸贏問(wèn)題，只得回應(yīng)時(shí)代周刊記者，“在美國(guó)‘自由平等’的表面下，還是存在著微妙的俗習(xí)陳見(jiàn)和種族歧視的?！?/p>

2001年5月，首位被選入美國(guó)眾議院的華裔吳振偉出席一次會(huì)議時(shí)竟在華盛頓特區(qū)能源部大樓被保安拒之門外。隨后，吳振偉表示：“最令我震憤的是，在我出示國(guó)會(huì)議員身份證明，且我的國(guó)會(huì)助理劉云平出示了員工證再次證實(shí)后，竟然一再質(zhì)疑我美國(guó)公民的身份！”

2001年，趙小蘭自哈佛商學(xué)院畢業(yè)，任職聯(lián)邦海事委員會(huì)主席及交通部助理秘書(shū)。她是喬治?沃克?布什總統(tǒng)任命其為勞工部秘書(shū)后，史上被納入總統(tǒng)顧問(wèn)團(tuán)的美籍華裔第一人。當(dāng)她的批判者們以她的中國(guó)血統(tǒng)為由刁難，趙小蘭的丈夫參議員米奇?麥康奈爾站出來(lái)指責(zé)了這些“一定程度的種族詆毀”，“黃熱病佬”云云言論以及媒體界所持的排外態(tài)度。

此類事件屢次三番發(fā)生，而后一個(gè)問(wèn)題被拋出，在美國(guó)華人社區(qū)呼聲高漲：到底還要幾般俯首屈從才能成為“真正”的美國(guó)公民？

這些種族主義事件并非偶然發(fā)生，憑空捏造的。這也不完全是在物理差異的基礎(chǔ)上產(chǎn)生的?？v觀美國(guó)歷史，的確，在大多數(shù)社會(huì)形式中，統(tǒng)治階級(jí)像操控機(jī)制一樣肆意剝削異民族勞動(dòng)力——作為一個(gè)方便的借口來(lái)讓自己的控制更容易為接受。種族主義經(jīng)常分裂和減少美國(guó)勞工--通過(guò)阻止白聯(lián)盟和彩色工人來(lái)幫助他們贏得那些影響他們的問(wèn)題--使得政府在緊急情況下擴(kuò)大其權(quán)力范圍，如在經(jīng)濟(jì)蕭條和戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)這種時(shí)候，整個(gè)民族可以被犧牲的替罪羊集會(huì)領(lǐng)袖的解決方案背后的人。這是在美國(guó)的華人在排除時(shí)代前夕的命運(yùn)。

3.羞恥

誰(shuí)感到羞愧？什么使他羞愧？為什么作者要描寫(xiě)他對(duì)這個(gè)小女孩青澀的暗戀？愛(ài)與自卑之間到底有什么聯(lián)系？理解了這些，你將找到這個(gè)故事的主題。

我在家從未有過(guò)憎惡感、羞恥感，而自從去了學(xué)校，我就有了這樣的感受。記得大約7歲那年，我得到了一次深刻的教訓(xùn)。那時(shí)，我喜歡上一個(gè)叫海琳·塔克的小女孩，她膚色白皙，扎著馬尾辮，舉止也很優(yōu)雅。她在?？偸且轮麧?，成績(jī)優(yōu)異。我覺(jué)得我去學(xué)校主要是為了看她。我會(huì)梳理好自己的頭發(fā)并帶上一塊舊的小手帕。盡管這手帕是一個(gè)婦人的，可我卻不想讓海琳看到我用手擦鼻涕的樣子。天很冷，水管再次冰凍，盡管家里沒(méi)有水，但我仍會(huì)在每天晚上清洗我的襪子和襯衣。我會(huì)拿上一個(gè)罐子去本先生的食品雜貨店，將它放在蘇打水冷藏柜下面，然后掏出一些冰塊放在里面。到了晚上，我就可以用那些冰塊化成的水來(lái)洗衣服。那年冬天我常常生病，因?yàn)樵谝雇頎t火會(huì)在衣服烘干之前熄滅。到第二天早晨，不管那衣服是濕還是干，我都會(huì)穿上，因?yàn)槟鞘俏椅ㄒ坏囊路?/p>

每個(gè)人的心中都有一個(gè)海琳·塔克，她就是你所想的一切優(yōu)點(diǎn)的代表。我喜歡她，因?yàn)樗屏肌⒄麧?、人緣好。如果她走在我回家的路上，我的兄弟姐妹就?huì)大聲叫道“海琳來(lái)了”，然后我會(huì)將網(wǎng)球鞋的鞋面在褲腳上擦幾下，希望我的頭發(fā)不那么凌亂，普通的白色襯衫更加服帖。接著就沖到路上，如果我知趣的話，便不會(huì)走得太近，這時(shí)她就會(huì)向我眨眼并問(wèn)好。那是一種很不錯(cuò)的感覺(jué)。有時(shí)候，我會(huì)一直跟在她后面走，鏟去路上的積雪，并試圖和她的媽媽、阿姨做朋友。晚上，我會(huì)在從小旅館擦鞋回來(lái)的路上將錢放在她家的門階上。

她有個(gè)爸爸，工作不錯(cuò)，是個(gè)糊墻紙工。

我猜想到夏天我便會(huì)把海琳忘卻，但是22年以來(lái)，在那間教室發(fā)生的事情，使她的面孔在我腦海里揮之不去。我為了她，在高中參加擊鼓活動(dòng)，在大學(xué)打破了某項(xiàng)記錄。甚至當(dāng)我站在臺(tái)上的麥克風(fēng)邊上聽(tīng)到掌聲時(shí)，我也是希望她能夠聽(tīng)到這些的。一直到22歲，我結(jié)婚了，工作賺錢了，她才終于從我的生命中淡去，不再影響我。當(dāng)我為自己感到羞愧時(shí)，海琳就坐在那間教室里。

那個(gè)周四，我坐在教室的后面的位子上，座位周圍被人用粉筆畫(huà)了個(gè)圈，代表這兒坐著的是個(gè)白癡，是個(gè)麻煩制造者。

老師認(rèn)為我是個(gè)笨蛋。我不會(huì)拼寫(xiě)，不會(huì)朗讀，不會(huì)算術(shù)。我就是個(gè)笨蛋！老師從來(lái)不會(huì)花心思去注意到你因?yàn)闆](méi)有吃早飯因?yàn)槎亲雍莛I而沒(méi)有集中注意力。你所能想到的也就是中午，中午還能不能到得了呢？也許你可以溜進(jìn)衣帽間，偷一些孩子們大衣口袋里的午飯來(lái)吃。一點(diǎn)兒吃的，比如漿糊。你不可能真的拿漿糊當(dāng)飯，或者將它們涂在面包上當(dāng)三明治；但是有時(shí)候，我還是會(huì)從教室后面的漿缸里舀幾匙漿糊。懷孕的人口味很怪，而我卻是滿懷貧困，滿懷污垢和令人掩鼻的臭味，滿懷凄涼和寒冷。我從來(lái)沒(méi)穿過(guò)專為我買的鞋子，我的床上還擠著另外5個(gè)人，可是隔壁房間里沒(méi)有爸爸。并且饑餓一直與我同在。當(dāng)我非常餓的時(shí)候，漿糊吃起來(lái)也就不那么難以下咽了。

老師認(rèn)為我是一個(gè)麻煩制造者。她總是在教室前面看見(jiàn)一個(gè)黑人小男孩愚蠢地坐在座位上，東張西望制造噪音影響其他孩子，卻看不見(jiàn)這個(gè)孩子之所以弄出聲音是想引起老師的注意。

那一天是周四，黑人發(fā)薪日的前一天。福利金通常是在周五發(fā)放。老師要求每一位學(xué)生問(wèn)他們的父親可以為社區(qū)福利基金捐多少錢。在周五晚上，每位孩子都會(huì)從他們父親那兒拿到錢，并在周一將錢帶到學(xué)校。我決定我要給自己買一個(gè)爸爸。我口袋里的錢是靠擦皮鞋、賣報(bào)紙掙來(lái)的。并且無(wú)論海琳?塔克從她爸爸那兒拿多少錢，我都要超越它。我現(xiàn)在手里有錢，直到周一才會(huì)以爸爸的名義拿出來(lái)。

我有點(diǎn)發(fā)抖，緊張得要死。老師打開(kāi)她的書(shū)，開(kāi)始按字母順序叫名字。

“海琳?塔克？”

“我爸爸說(shuō)他會(huì)給兩美元五十美分。

“那太好了。海琳，非常，非常好?！?/p>

這讓我感覺(jué)非常好。我不會(huì)花太多錢去超越它。我口袋里有好多一角硬幣和二十五分硬幣，差不多三美元。我把手放進(jìn)口袋里，牢牢地抓住錢，等待她叫我的名字。但是老師喊了教室每一個(gè)人的名字后合上了書(shū)。

我站起來(lái)，舉起我的手?！艾F(xiàn)在是怎么回事？” “你忘了我。”

她轉(zhuǎn)過(guò)身面朝著黑板：“我沒(méi)有時(shí)間陪你玩，理查德?！?/p>

“我爸爸說(shuō)他可以??”

“坐下，理查德，你在擾亂課堂秩序?！?/p>

“我爸爸說(shuō)他可以捐??捐十五美元。”

她轉(zhuǎn)過(guò)來(lái)，看起來(lái)十分生氣：“我們是在為你還有和你一樣的人募捐，理查德·格雷戈里。如果你的爸爸能捐出十五美元，那你還需要什么政府扶助金？”

“我現(xiàn)在就帶它著呢，我現(xiàn)在帶著呢，我爸爸把錢給我讓我今天交的，他說(shuō)??”

“還有，”她盯著我說(shuō)，她的鼻孔在擴(kuò)張，嘴唇越抿越緊，眼睛也瞪得大大的?！拔覀兌贾滥銢](méi)有爸爸?！?/p>

海琳·塔克轉(zhuǎn)過(guò)頭來(lái)，她的眼睛里噙滿淚水。她為我感到難過(guò)。然后我就看不清她了，因?yàn)槲乙部蘖恕?/p>

“坐下，理查德?！?我一直以為老師是有點(diǎn)兒喜歡我的，她總是在星期五放學(xué)后讓我擦洗黑板。那曾使我很激動(dòng)，覺(jué)得自己很重要。如果我不擦洗黑板，也許下周一學(xué)校就不能正常上課了。

“你要去哪兒，理查德？”

那天我走出了學(xué)校，此后很長(zhǎng)一段時(shí)間我都沒(méi)怎么回去。因?yàn)槟抢镌屛腋械叫邜u。

現(xiàn)在我覺(jué)得羞愧的無(wú)地自容，教室就像我的整個(gè)世界，每個(gè)人都聽(tīng)到了老師的話，每個(gè)人都面帶歉意的看向我。參加最值得的孩子的圣誕晚宴也讓我覺(jué)得羞愧，因?yàn)樗腥硕贾肋@個(gè)“最值得的孩子”是什么。為什么他們不能直接叫兒童晚宴？為什么他們非要那么叫它？我為穿著福利院給三千個(gè)孩子的棕色，橙色和白色格子花彩格厚呢外衣而感到羞愧，為什么每個(gè)人穿的都一樣以至于你一走在大街上，人們就知道你是靠著救濟(jì)生活的人。那件外衣是件很好的暖和的衣服，它還帶有一個(gè)風(fēng)帽，當(dāng)我媽媽在塞滿垃圾的桶底找到它的時(shí)候，她打罵了我，并說(shuō)，我是一個(gè)小人。我為每天晚上跑去本先生家要他的腐爛的桃子感到羞愧，我為向西蒙先生要一勺糖而羞恥，我為跑去救濟(jì)車而感到自卑。我恨那輛車，裝滿了給你的食物和善意。當(dāng)它再次來(lái)的時(shí)候我跑到屋子里藏了起來(lái)，然后從小路跑到遠(yuǎn)處，他們就不會(huì)在那家免費(fèi)餐廳看到我。是啊，那天整個(gè)世界都聽(tīng)到了老師說(shuō)了什么，我們都知道你沒(méi)有爸爸。

4.勇敢面對(duì)

一個(gè)寒冷的下午的足球比賽是在1937年發(fā)生。這些球員是哈佛大學(xué)的學(xué)生,在波士頓附近,在美利堅(jiān)合眾國(guó)。美式足球是一個(gè)粗糙的游戲,很容易受傷。球員們通常是強(qiáng)大的,堅(jiān)實(shí)的年輕人。但在這場(chǎng)合一名球員是長(zhǎng)得又高又瘦。他沒(méi)有足夠的足球非常擁擠。但他是敏銳的,而是,盡管成功。他喜歡戶外運(yùn)動(dòng)和出場(chǎng)大部分得很好。他無(wú)論做什么都是盡心去。他是約翰,肯尼迪。23年后,他將成為美國(guó)的總統(tǒng)。

像激動(dòng)的游戲模式增加了每個(gè)人匆忙球在一次。他們降落在彼此的頂部在堅(jiān)硬的、冷冰冰地。約翰·肯尼迪下面。當(dāng)其他的男人挑選自己站起來(lái),準(zhǔn)備繼續(xù)比賽,他一動(dòng)不動(dòng)的躺著。最初它是難以移動(dòng)。他覺(jué)得如果他揪住了他背后的東西。他的胳膊和腿似乎不工作。他慢慢地站了起來(lái)。鋒利的感到劇痛他回來(lái)直立行走。但他拒絕有幫助,他離開(kāi)了現(xiàn)場(chǎng)。

那天,他傷害他的背得如此厲害,以致它給麻煩他余下的生命。但是很少人無(wú)論在玩牌的時(shí)候,還是以后,知道這常常忙和有吸引力的人是痛苦的。這不是他的性格中放棄。

約翰肯尼迪出生,就像一句老話說(shuō)的那樣,“銀勺在他九歲”。他的父親約瑟夫·肯尼迪,是一個(gè)富有的銀行家。他的母親,玫瑰,是一個(gè)著名的波士頓的女兒的政治家。她在法國(guó)受過(guò)教育。約瑟夫·肯尼迪有足夠的錢給他的每個(gè)一百萬(wàn)元九個(gè)孩子的母親,他們到達(dá)了21歲。

約翰真的沒(méi)有很努力奮斗。他不需要工作,他的生活。但是他的父母帶孩子來(lái)領(lǐng)導(dǎo)使用壽命不管什么財(cái)富都要他們。他們教人們?nèi)绾螔暝驳孟袼麄兡軣o(wú)論他們相信并且不要害怕競(jìng)爭(zhēng)。他們教人們?nèi)绾蚊鎸?duì)生活的勇氣,沒(méi)有抱怨。這是幸運(yùn)的。因?yàn)?盡管約翰的錢可以提供最好的醫(yī)生,他從來(lái)沒(méi)有完美的健康的禮物或疼痛的緩解。

肯尼迪家族是一個(gè)活潑的家人彼此爭(zhēng)吵和斗爭(zhēng),因?yàn)榇蠖鄶?shù)的孩子才會(huì)做的事。但他們彼此非常忠誠(chéng)。他們來(lái)自一個(gè)愛(ài)爾蘭人家庭和屬于天主教堂。他們的宗教對(duì)于他們來(lái)說(shuō)很重要,他們學(xué)會(huì)了兒童保護(hù)他們的信心。美國(guó)是一個(gè)強(qiáng)烈的新教的國(guó)家。

肯尼迪的父母對(duì)子女的。什么似乎是不可能的。他們的祖父輩已經(jīng)抵達(dá)美國(guó)時(shí)身無(wú)分文,教育,使他們的財(cái)富。他們自己的努力給他們的孩子在生活中一個(gè)很好的機(jī)會(huì)。誰(shuí)知道約翰和他的兄弟姐妹可能會(huì)做什么? 孩子們向他們的古老的哥哥喬帶路。像許多美國(guó)兒童,他希望有一天成為總統(tǒng)。他是同性戀的,性情急躁,好學(xué)生和自信的領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人。他研究是一個(gè)律師,似乎肯定是他祖父的政治家都喜歡。

約翰是安靜的。他喜歡書(shū)籍和研究雖然他沒(méi)有得到前在學(xué)校的成績(jī),像他哥哥。他似乎很可能成為一個(gè)老師或作家。

當(dāng)孩子長(zhǎng)大成人之后就到國(guó)外旅行。約翰花了一個(gè)暑假在英國(guó)當(dāng)他十八歲。當(dāng)他二十歲時(shí)他和一個(gè)朋友穿越歐洲。就在1937年。歐洲走向第二次世界大戰(zhàn)。大多數(shù)美國(guó)人不感興趣外面發(fā)生了什么美國(guó)。但當(dāng)約翰回到哈佛他開(kāi)始接受一個(gè)更嚴(yán)重的興趣在歷史上以及政府。他還花了很多時(shí)間在戶外,游泳和航行。相反,他們走向數(shù)英里外的另一個(gè)海島。他們游,或者一個(gè)日志上漂來(lái)漂去,到岸邊。他的一個(gè)同伴受傷所以約翰,他是一個(gè)很好的游泳者,把他同用一根繩子,他控制住自己的牙齒,直到他們到達(dá)島上。

那天晚上,他幾乎累后12小時(shí)在水里,他又游了尋找?guī)椭?。一個(gè)星期以來(lái),他繼續(xù)做一個(gè)接一個(gè)的嘗試去拿幫助他的十一個(gè)人。他們沒(méi)有食物或水。最后他發(fā)現(xiàn)了一個(gè)證明了島上的土著美國(guó)人要友善。他把一個(gè)信息帶來(lái)的美國(guó)船去救他們。這時(shí)候他們是如此的虛弱和生病的他們不能一直活得更長(zhǎng)一些。

約翰的勇氣,在這個(gè)時(shí)間使他尊貴。但他犧牲了自己的力量。他病了一年多之后,被迫救他,最后,從海軍退役的職責(zé)。.戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)快結(jié)束了,但這是一個(gè)悲傷的時(shí)間為約翰。他知道他的兄弟和他的兩個(gè)姐夫(他姐姐的丈夫)被殺死。

約翰不得不考慮他下一步干什么。他作為一名報(bào)社記者去到舊金山會(huì)議開(kāi)始,聯(lián)合國(guó)組織。這是一個(gè)很重要的世界事件。當(dāng)他回到波士頓,他的父親提到一個(gè)國(guó)會(huì)議員從馬薩諸塞州的放棄了他的職務(wù)?！澳銥槭裁床粎⒓痈?jìng)選國(guó)會(huì)嗎,約翰? “他補(bǔ)充說(shuō)。約翰考慮清楚了,決定試一試。

它似乎是不可能的,他會(huì)當(dāng)選。他太年輕的,富裕的和沒(méi)有經(jīng)驗(yàn)的有嚴(yán)重的獲勝的機(jī)會(huì)。和其他候選人有9個(gè),很多比賽。盡管他身材高大,有男子氣概,一流的眼睛和一個(gè)友好的微笑,他消瘦而蒼白,看起來(lái)精致。但有幾件事對(duì)他有利。是他的勇氣。另一個(gè)是他的誠(chéng)實(shí)。麻薩諸塞州有其股票不誠(chéng)實(shí)的政客?？夏岬系腻X幫助讓他知道的廣泛關(guān)注?？夏岬霞易宓拇舐?lián)為他的演講和公開(kāi)露面,也有助于贏得很多選票。最重要的是,約翰自己下定決心要成功,因?yàn)樗偸鞘?沒(méi)有什么可以阻止他。他工作非常努力,有少的睡眠。他走進(jìn)房屋、商店、工廠、酒店、無(wú)論他可能會(huì)遇到一他答應(yīng)工作為窮人提供更好的條件——更好的待遇、房；他不認(rèn)為自己是一個(gè)富人的兒子；他表明他很樂(lè)意幫這不能幫助自己選舉,他還是很容易被派往華盛頓為美國(guó)國(guó)會(huì)議員。

從那時(shí)起,約翰·肯尼迪,他的嚴(yán)肅態(tài)度和容易的魅力,變成了金色的男孩的美國(guó)政治。他不能失去。6年之后他回到了華盛頓,國(guó)會(huì)議員在更重要的工作從麻薩諸塞州的參議員。

后來(lái)在1960年,他當(dāng)選總統(tǒng)的最富有的和世界上最強(qiáng)大的國(guó)家。在四十三歲的他是最年輕的總統(tǒng)有過(guò),第一位是天主教徒?？夏岬霞易?年輕、有才華、有吸引力,像一個(gè)皇室家庭。當(dāng)下、約翰的可愛(ài)的妻子杰奎琳是完美的年輕的皇后?？夏岬霞易暹€粘在一起。約翰的兄弟羅伯特,年齡35歲了,現(xiàn)在成了他最信任的顧問(wèn)和國(guó)家的司法部長(zhǎng)。

三年后,肯尼迪總統(tǒng)死了。他被一個(gè)刺客,他騎他的妻子一個(gè)開(kāi)著車穿過(guò)街道的德克薩斯州的達(dá)拉斯。是什么使得他,在如此短的時(shí)間作為總統(tǒng),這樣一個(gè)明亮的光點(diǎn)在美國(guó)政治場(chǎng)面?他為什么比總統(tǒng)更出名的壽命長(zhǎng)和表現(xiàn)得更多?約翰·肯尼迪什么名字代表什么? 也許答案是可以發(fā)現(xiàn)在與他的哥哥,司法部長(zhǎng),他試圖確保法律對(duì)他的國(guó)家給黑人與白人平等的機(jī)會(huì)。這是時(shí)間,他說(shuō),讓它“明確一切種族沒(méi)有發(fā)生在美國(guó)生活或法律”。他試過(guò)了,沒(méi)有成功,為了獲得更好的醫(yī)療照顧老人。他想改善教育。歷史已經(jīng)開(kāi)始顯示肯尼迪,作為美國(guó)總統(tǒng),嚴(yán)重的錯(cuò)誤。這是在自由之名,他帶領(lǐng)他的國(guó)家的深入研究,其殘酷的,是沒(méi)有希望的越南戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)。

這是肯尼迪,這個(gè)人,他把他的郵票貼在1960年代早期的世界。而不是疲倦的老人帶領(lǐng)大多數(shù)的國(guó)家,一個(gè)新的明星已上升。一個(gè)明亮的、有才華、勇敢的年輕人,他能做很多事情做好,選擇了政治的簡(jiǎn)陋的生活因?yàn)樗胍粋€(gè)美好的世界。從而讓每個(gè)人。他使人——特別是美國(guó)人——認(rèn)為更好的自己,因?yàn)樗瞧渲兄弧?/p>

他非常欽佩什么樣的勇氣使人獨(dú)自站在一邊的東西他們認(rèn)為是正確的。有一次,當(dāng)他從傷病中恢復(fù)生病,他寫(xiě)了一本關(guān)于人的例子的那種勇氣。他是一個(gè)例子,它自己。

5.一支步槍,一把斧頭和一袋玉米

一支步槍,一把斧頭和一袋玉米。這是一場(chǎng)激烈的戰(zhàn)斗的武器——而鼓起了勇氣,一場(chǎng)斗爭(zhēng),在其中只有強(qiáng)者存活。

不像往常一樣跑的戰(zhàn)役,這不是一個(gè)戰(zhàn)斗中的一個(gè)有組織的軍隊(duì)向另一個(gè)人,這是一個(gè)更優(yōu)越的之間的戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)的男人、女人和孩子在這邊、未知的荒野的。

從1770年到1840年西方運(yùn)動(dòng)了一把人們成百上千。成群的土地避難者涌入密西西比河流域。它成為牛群。單身男人打包及左、家庭卷走了整個(gè)城鎮(zhèn)收拾起自己的東西,離開(kāi)了。美國(guó)是在移動(dòng)。在1770年有五千人阿巴拉契亞山脈以西。1840年,共有八百萬(wàn)數(shù)百萬(wàn)數(shù)百萬(wàn)英畝的土地被移動(dòng)的部落。

從來(lái)沒(méi)有見(jiàn)過(guò)這樣的運(yùn)動(dòng)的世界。這是一個(gè)永無(wú)止境的小溪。城鎮(zhèn)和村莊幾乎在一夜之間拔地而起。“愉悅山在杰斐遜,俄亥俄州,是在1810年一個(gè)小哈姆雷特的7個(gè)住在船艙。在1815年,它包含90個(gè)家庭編號(hào)500的靈魂,有7個(gè)商店和3個(gè)酒館,是從議事廳,校舍,market-house、機(jī)器為紡羊毛、工廠制作線、40工匠和力學(xué)代表11交易。”

在1817年約翰Calhoun說(shuō):“我們是偉大的,并迅速——我想說(shuō)的是恐懼-成長(zhǎng)?！耙苍S恐懼是正確的字。

這只有三十年了!這是驚人的。擴(kuò)大的線條,移動(dòng),移動(dòng),曾經(jīng)向西移動(dòng)。從這個(gè)巨大的大小西進(jìn)運(yùn)動(dòng)人們很自然地會(huì)想去西方世界上最容易的工作。一點(diǎn)也不。大多數(shù)這些感人的人移動(dòng)主要是因?yàn)橛泻苌倩蚋緵](méi)有錢,所以長(zhǎng)毛絨的座位在快速火車旅行將使得在二十四小時(shí)內(nèi)不適合自己的;此外,火車如同我們知道他們根本不存在任何、金錢或不是。高超的混凝土路面我們熟悉甚至沒(méi)有夢(mèng)想,卡車和汽車襯墊減振器、舒適的彈簧和橡膠輪胎,在七十五年后的未來(lái)。沒(méi)有,因?yàn)檫@些早期的拓荒者,去西部他們想做的事情,而不是因?yàn)樗侨菀椎娜プ觥０屠鮼喩矫},雖然不高的落基山脈,然而,一個(gè)真正的障礙。

河流穿越群山是正確的,當(dāng)然,有很大幫助。但是旅行者不得不福特小溪,使他的家人和牛在并不是很簡(jiǎn)單的。有時(shí)候一個(gè)夏天雨水會(huì)膨脹成一座山溪,要用毀滅的篩籮。然后穿過(guò)是很危險(xiǎn)的。總是有害怕攻擊印第安人。一旦安全跑過(guò)山,會(huì)是一個(gè)更容易一些。然后整個(gè)家庭、丈夫、妻子、兒女、牲畜可以上漂流或龍骨船浮在一條河,與當(dāng)前的下游。不幸的是,因?yàn)橛心敲炊嗟娜苏诼猛疚鞑?很難弄到的一條船馬上。既然每個(gè)人都在移動(dòng)時(shí)工人很難找到。經(jīng)常旅行的家庭將會(huì)等待幾周之前,其船建造。并且,永遠(yuǎn),甚至當(dāng)向河的下游漂去,突然襲擊的危險(xiǎn)的印第安人在岸邊。因?yàn)檫@個(gè)原因,許多flatboats完全封閉的四周,以便他們看起來(lái)像漂浮城堡。

6．看世界

我在英國(guó)劍橋?qū)W習(xí)期間有4周的復(fù)活節(jié)假期，便作出了將生活必需品扔進(jìn)行囊前往“歐洲大陸”的決定。在因特網(wǎng)上簡(jiǎn)單地搜索了一下，就找到了一張從倫敦斯坦斯特德機(jī)場(chǎng)到柏林的廉價(jià)機(jī)票。幾天后我就站在了柏林舍那費(fèi)爾特機(jī)場(chǎng)的德國(guó)移民局官員面前，拿著我的中國(guó)護(hù)照和其他旅行文件。隨著他“砰”的一聲在我的申根簽證上蓋了戳，我就可以自由地在歐洲大部分地區(qū)漫游了。

背著行囊到各個(gè)國(guó)家旅行，這在西方年輕人當(dāng)中極為流行，但在亞洲青年當(dāng)中還不普遍。西方人長(zhǎng)期以來(lái)就喜歡探索“神秘的東方”，但在我們東方人中卻很少有人對(duì)“神秘的西方”有真正的體驗(yàn)。在此我不想揣測(cè)這一特有現(xiàn)象的背后原因，我只想解釋一下一位21歲的中國(guó)學(xué)生是如何背著行囊獨(dú)自完成了一次奇妙的歐洲之旅。

到了歐洲大陸后的當(dāng)務(wù)之急就是需要現(xiàn)鈔，但不是我存在中國(guó)銀行賬戶里的人民幣，也不是美國(guó)賬戶里的美元，怎樣才能得到歐元呢？我找到了一個(gè)ATM自動(dòng)提款機(jī)，把我的銀行卡插進(jìn)去，不一會(huì)兒歐元就進(jìn)了我的錢包，國(guó)際金融體系已經(jīng)使旅行者能相當(dāng)方便地獲得當(dāng)?shù)刎泿?。中?guó)人只要有國(guó)際上認(rèn)可的借記卡（如VISA卡、Master卡）就能以當(dāng)前的兌換率從歐洲的ATM機(jī)中換出歐元，兌換率比去當(dāng)?shù)氐耐鈪R兌換處還要優(yōu)惠，而你在國(guó)內(nèi)銀行存的是人民幣也沒(méi)有關(guān)系，一樣能換。

我們中國(guó)人一說(shuō)到出國(guó)旅行，一個(gè)令人生畏的問(wèn)題就會(huì)蹦出來(lái)———語(yǔ)言怎么辦？這個(gè)問(wèn)題在我們想去歐洲時(shí)就會(huì)更為可怕，因?yàn)闅W洲的每一個(gè)國(guó)家?guī)缀醵加兴约旱恼Z(yǔ)言———荷蘭語(yǔ)、捷克語(yǔ)、法語(yǔ)、德語(yǔ)、希臘語(yǔ)、意大利語(yǔ)、葡萄牙語(yǔ)、西班牙語(yǔ)，還有很多很多其他語(yǔ)言。但不必害怕：如果你的英語(yǔ)很好，就能很容易地應(yīng)對(duì)一切。歐洲的很多標(biāo)志和大多數(shù)旅行文件都有英文譯文，而且歐洲人的英語(yǔ)水平也越來(lái)越高。此外，一些重要詞匯在很多歐洲語(yǔ)言中都差不多，比如，當(dāng)你需要用衛(wèi)生間（英文是toilet）時(shí)，在法國(guó)你就去找toilette，在德國(guó)就是Toilette，在意大利是toletta，在葡萄牙是toalete。盡管如此，知道一點(diǎn)兒當(dāng)?shù)卣Z(yǔ)言絕對(duì)有幫助，因?yàn)楫?dāng)?shù)厝讼矚g你能夠說(shuō)幾個(gè)哪怕是極簡(jiǎn)單的詞，像法語(yǔ)中的“你好”是bonjour，意大利語(yǔ)中的“謝謝”是grazie，德語(yǔ)中的“對(duì)不起，請(qǐng)?jiān)彙笔莈ntschuldigung。

令人遺憾的是，有時(shí)你不知道想說(shuō)的詞該怎么說(shuō)，那是否就意味著談話要結(jié)束了？非也。即便你的詞庫(kù)已經(jīng)窮盡了，你還有最后一招，也常常是很有意思的一招———身體語(yǔ)言。在參觀了“東部畫(huà)廊”———柏林墻所遺留下的最長(zhǎng)的部分，我來(lái)到一個(gè)輕軌車站下面的小餐館坐下，那里的人們幾乎都不說(shuō)英語(yǔ)，他們的德語(yǔ)也有著很怪的口音，所以我進(jìn)去之后就沒(méi)有與他們過(guò)多地交談。我在菜單上的好幾處都看到“Ente”一詞，但我在耶魯大學(xué)的德語(yǔ)課上從來(lái)沒(méi)學(xué)過(guò)這個(gè)詞，便問(wèn)服務(wù)員Ente是什么。他撓撓腦袋，環(huán)顧四周，急切地尋求幫助，但是柜臺(tái)后面的人們聳聳肩，搖搖頭，就在我剛想說(shuō)“不必介意”時(shí)，他開(kāi)始晃著屁股，并且發(fā)出“嘎嘎”的聲音———鴨子！肯定是鴨子！他的啞劇表演非常有效地把Ente的意思表達(dá)了出來(lái)，與此同時(shí)，這種身體語(yǔ)言帶來(lái)了神奇的打破堅(jiān)冰般的效果，就餐氣氛活躍多了。

為了輕裝旅行，我總是盡量不帶重的東西，但有一樣有分量的東西我總是帶在身邊，那就是旅游手冊(cè)。我從旅游手冊(cè)《去歐洲》一書(shū)中獲得了有關(guān)我要去的目的地、旅舍及交通的大部分信息。在背囊旅行者中大受歡迎的另一套旅游手冊(cè)是《孤獨(dú)的星球》系列叢書(shū)。凡是有重要的旅游點(diǎn)的地方，這些書(shū)里都標(biāo)有地圖，書(shū)里還提供大量的有關(guān)旅舍、旅館、餐廳、酒吧等處的信息，因此旅游者總有選擇的余地。書(shū)上還有公共交通的詳細(xì)地圖，汽車與火車的班次、票價(jià)以及從一地到另一地所需要的時(shí)間，這就使你能夠做出一個(gè)很好的計(jì)劃。有些旅游手冊(cè)與當(dāng)?shù)氐穆蒙岷筒蛷d還有很好的合作，只要在柜臺(tái)前晃一下那本旅游手冊(cè)，你就能得到優(yōu)惠。我在奧地利薩爾斯堡的時(shí)候，住旅舍每天省了4歐元，在餐廳吃飯能打9折，這都是因?yàn)槲矣幸槐尽度W洲》。好的旅游手冊(cè)會(huì)列出旅行中所涉及的幾乎所有的價(jià)格，從而幫你做出預(yù)算。很多手冊(cè)還贊助對(duì)旅游者很有幫助的網(wǎng)站，旅游者可以在網(wǎng)上報(bào)告當(dāng)前的價(jià)格，并且發(fā)表自己對(duì)旅舍與餐廳的評(píng)論。因此，務(wù)必要做的一件事就是在出發(fā)之前帶上一本高質(zhì)量的最新出版的旅游手冊(cè)，這對(duì)你會(huì)大有幫助。

7關(guān)于英雄

這個(gè)詞的英雄會(huì)混淆,因?yàn)樗?有好幾個(gè)意義。它常用于普通百姓發(fā)生在執(zhí)行一項(xiàng)行動(dòng)的極大的勇氣——一個(gè)消防員撲救的人一天的主要角色,小說(shuō)或電影被稱為英雄的故事,即使他并不特別勇敢。但英雄輩出,我們也會(huì)考慮現(xiàn)在構(gòu)成第三集團(tuán)。他們是巨人,其優(yōu)越性數(shù)據(jù)填補(bǔ)了我們的心的贊嘆和敬畏,男人和女人給我們一個(gè)高的例子去追隨,有個(gè)生活目標(biāo),或者有時(shí)僅僅是一個(gè)夢(mèng),因?yàn)樗麄兇砹巳?我們?cè)敢狻?/p>

人類總是有這樣的英雄。有些已經(jīng)建造的救助者或他們的國(guó)家,像喬治華盛頓,誰(shuí)給一代又一代的美國(guó)人他們的模型的決心,無(wú)私和榮譽(yù)。有些宗教領(lǐng)袖或漂亮女人;征服者自居,運(yùn)動(dòng)員,或先驅(qū);小說(shuō)人物或革命者,圣徒,罪人,可愛(ài)的強(qiáng)盜,或電影明星。不管他們,他們都榮耀,顯示方式下對(duì)他們的追隨者?？释档盟麄兡軐⒆詈玫囊幻娉尸F(xiàn)他們的崇拜者。近年發(fā)表的許多文章,聲稱沒(méi)有更多的英雄在西方世界。作者說(shuō),特別是在歐洲和北美,現(xiàn)代的年輕人拒絕崇拜任何人,我們生活在一個(gè)世界太靈通,太好奇展示給我們的過(guò)失公眾人物誰(shuí)能成為今天的明星,直到我們失去信心,開(kāi)始尋找缺陷的人似乎值得尊敬的。在一個(gè)鄰居或一個(gè)政治家,我們?cè)囍l(fā)現(xiàn)我們的弱點(diǎn),失敗,或丑陋的動(dòng)機(jī),無(wú)疑是隱藏他的高尚的行為。

這是真的,我們知道得太多了?我們的祖先是幸運(yùn)的是只是部分通知嗎? 那些讀第一查理曼的傳記,喬治華盛頓,圣女貞德、或其他偉大的男性和女性的過(guò)去并沒(méi)有被告知他們心目中的英雄也有異味或不喜歡他的母親,他們只找到一個(gè)描述他的偉大成就和仰慕得到加強(qiáng)。事實(shí)上,早期的傳記作者毫不猶豫地組成了一個(gè)極佳的兩個(gè)故事關(guān)于他們的英雄。人寫(xiě)第一本傳記的華盛頓,例如,發(fā)明了一棵櫻桃樹(shù)下,他承認(rèn)后,無(wú)真相,但他說(shuō)那是在性格上,它將會(huì)給年輕人的神的例子來(lái)跟隨。他的讀者似乎不對(duì)象;書(shū)再版八十極大的成功,那些日子。

現(xiàn)代傳記作者不發(fā)明這樣的故事,他們尊重事實(shí),正如他們確實(shí)應(yīng)該。但我們支付的價(jià)格為其真實(shí)性,因?yàn)樗麄冊(cè)谂︼@示“完整的人”,他們告訴我們,比我們真的需要知道關(guān)于私人生活、家庭秘密,人類的弱點(diǎn)。真正的偉大的一個(gè)好的人,常常被人們忘記在顯示;人們失去的不只是仰慕他,但他們?cè)敢庀嘈湃魏纹渌懊餍恰蓖耆?/p>

在備注中可以清楚地看到了一群高中生,在家開(kāi)轟趴洛杉磯附近,那些被要求他們所欣賞?！皼](méi)有,”一個(gè)年輕人說(shuō):“因?yàn)槲覀冊(cè)缙诘膶?duì)象被毀。我們想要相信了我們所有的缺點(diǎn)和缺陷,使得很難信任的歷史的英雄?！薄傲硪粋€(gè)學(xué)生,一個(gè)女孩,補(bǔ)充說(shuō),“我們?cè)噲D模仿是未知的成年人, 在我們的生活中。而不是夢(mèng)想就像一些著名的女某個(gè)地方,我要像我媽媽最好的朋友,就是沒(méi)有人在這個(gè)房間里就會(huì)知道。但是我也知道并且欣賞她,那是對(duì)我來(lái)說(shuō)夠了。”

一種英雄的品質(zhì)要求隨著時(shí)代,和一些偉大人物的一個(gè)特定的時(shí)期會(huì)驚喜的新一代?？紤]爆炸的愛(ài)和悲傷的死亡后,約翰·列儂于1980年12月。很少引起死亡的悲痛,這樣的悲哀,在很多國(guó)家在整個(gè)世界的歷史。毫無(wú)疑問(wèn),列儂為他的哀悼者是一個(gè)英雄。為什么? 他做那件事是如此顯著? “約翰不僅僅是一個(gè)音樂(lè)家,”有人說(shuō)他的崇拜者。“他知道如何表達(dá)我這一代的感情在1960年代晚期。他是我們的聲音和我們的指引;他改變了我們?cè)谶^(guò)去的幾年里,總是有點(diǎn)在我們的前方,他為我們打開(kāi)新的視野和鼓勵(lì)我們的風(fēng)險(xiǎn)遠(yuǎn),敢。我們談到了愛(ài)與和平;他是一個(gè)大哥哥。我們需要在一個(gè)麻煩的時(shí)間。“有些列儂的仰慕者可能已經(jīng)知道他并不是完美的,但他們卻忽視他的黑暗的一面保持感激做出積極的貢獻(xiàn)比他在他們的生活。肯定有很多人不認(rèn)為約翰·列儂一個(gè)英雄,事實(shí)上有一個(gè)極低的對(duì)他的看法。但這是不尋常的,一個(gè)人的英雄是另一個(gè)人的惡棍。認(rèn)為所有的領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人,革命者,征服者非常尊重的一個(gè)國(guó)家,一個(gè)宗教團(tuán)體,或一代,藐視或受人恨。

電視和電影提供許多淺英雄,他們年輕的觀眾。很多家長(zhǎng)都不看到孩子的欽佩超人?！吨┲雮b》,或者有些奢侈搖滾歌手沒(méi)有想法或人才。但這樣的英雄不會(huì)持續(xù)很長(zhǎng),幾年后日益增長(zhǎng)的青少年嘲笑這些對(duì)象他們年幼的贊賞。他們開(kāi)始尋找更好地指導(dǎo)。無(wú)論他們?cè)趺凑f(shuō)。他們發(fā)現(xiàn)他們。學(xué)生誰(shuí)是有足夠的智慧去認(rèn)識(shí)素質(zhì)在她媽媽的朋友有一個(gè)完美的主人公自己的,一個(gè)是更容易模仿比喬治華盛頓或克拉拉?巴頓。

很難成為一個(gè)英雄在西方世界的這些日子里,在探索的目光中,對(duì)這一至關(guān)重要的社會(huì)。但肯定的是最不完全消失;還有人比他們的同胞的智慧,他們的勇氣,或他們的個(gè)性。他們可以成為英雄,如果人們?cè)敢夂鲆曀鼈兊娜祟惾毕荨⒊姓J(rèn)的尊重他們的優(yōu)良品質(zhì)激勵(lì)。到處都需要英雄,在任何時(shí)候。這是一個(gè)悲哀的天空沒(méi)有閃爍的明星。
