今日翻译： 《了不起的盖茨比》原版Chapter One (1)

今天kindle到手了，摸鱼了好久。
之前在扇贝上看了《了不起的盖茨比》英文版，似乎并没有感受到他的美。
今天在kindle书城扫了眼村上春树翻译的版本。就被一个句子惊艳了。
<pre>
“每当你想批评别人的时候，”他对我说，
“要记住，这世上并不是所有人，都有你拥有的那些优势。”
</pre>
故今天翻译原版，想看看自己和大神之间差了多少。

《了不起的盖茨比》原版Chapter One (1)

• In my younger and more vulnerable years my father gave me some advice that I’ve been turning over in my mind ever since.
  <pre>在我脆弱的童年时期父亲给了我一些忠告，并从那时起我就一直在揣摩其中深意。</pre>

• “Whenever you feel like criticizing any one,” he told me, “just remember that all the people in this world haven’t had the advantages that you’ve had.”
  <pre>
  “每当你想批评别人的时候，”他对我说，
  “要记住，这世上并不是所有人，都有你拥有的那些优势。”</pre>
• He didn’t say any more, but we’ve always been unusually communicative in a reserved way, and I understood that he meant a great deal more than that. In consequence, I’m inclined to reserve all judgments, a habit that has opened up many curious natures to me and also made me the victim of not a few veteran bores.
  <pre>
  他没再说些别，但他总是如此的保有余地，
  我懂得这其中的深意远比字面上来的多。
  因此在后来的日子来，我习惯对所有判断持保留看法
  ——这个习惯既使得许多有怪僻的人肯原因和我谈心，
  也使我深受那些爱唠叨的讨厌鬼们的骚扰。
  </pre>
• The abnormal mind is quick to detect and attach itself to this quality when it appears in a normal person, and so it came about that in college I was unjustly accused of being a politician, because I was privy to the secret griefs of wild, unknown men.
  <pre>
  T T 不会翻.....为什么把小说写的这么拗口....哭泣...每一个单词都认识的痛</pre>
• Most of the confidences were unsought — frequently I have feigned sleep, preoccupation, or a hostile levity when I realized by some unmistakable sign that an intimate revelation was quivering on the horizon; for the intimate revelations of young men, or at least the terms in which they express them, are usually plagiaristic and marred by obvious suppressions.
  <pre>
  大多数秘密都不是我打听来的
  ——当有明显的迹象表明某些人想要吐露心声时，
  我通常假装睡在觉，走神，或烦躁的样子。
  因为年轻人的心声，表达的方式差不多是一样，
  带有明显的重复性和强烈的压抑。
