《长腿叔叔》
又是礼拜三了。
It was Wednesday again.
对洁茹以及孤儿院里其他九十几个院童来说,每个月的第一个礼拜三是一个十分难熬的日子。在这一天,每一个院童都必须梳洗得乾乾净净,房间各个角落都打扫得整整齐齐,连每一块地板都擦得光洁无比,每一张床铺都平整得连一小条绉褶都没有;如此严阵以待,是因为孤儿院的董事大人们在这一天会大驾光临。每一个孩子并且也都被再三交代,如果有董事大人问他们什麽话,必须非常乖巧、恭敬地回答。
For Jerusha and the ninety-odd other children in the orphanage, the first Wednesday of every month was quite a torturous day. On this day, each child had to be clean and well-groomed, every corner in every room had to be neat and tidy, every floor had to sparkle, and every bed had to be made perfectly flat so that the tiniest wrinkle would not show. All of this preparation was to get ready for the visit of the Trustees' of the orphanage which always fell on this day. Each child had been told time and again that if a Trustee were to ask him or her a question, he or she was to answer in a clever and respectful way.
洁茹是孤儿院里年纪最大的孩子,她今年已经十八岁了。本来按照规定,孤儿院只养育院童到十六岁,洁茹却是一个例外;因为她的成绩相当优异,院方才决定让她继续升学,到村子里去念高中。洁茹最近高中刚毕业,都在院里帮忙。
Jerusha was the oldest child in the orphanageshe was already 18 years old. According to the rules, the orphanage only had to keep children up until the age of 16, but Jerusha was an exception. Because her grades were quite good, the orphanage decided to let her continue her studies and allowed her to go to the high school in town. At this point, Jerusha had just graduated from high school and was just staying to help out around the orphanage.
像今天,为了准备一个圆满的礼拜三,洁茹已经忙了一整天。幸好一切都如她所预料的非常顺利,现在董事大人们听完报告,享用完茶点,已经纷纷离去,准备去赴其他的约会了。望着他们离去的背影,洁茹的心里再一次涌起了幻想。尽管李派特太太不断告诫她,这样的幻想只会折磨她自己,使她更苦恼,并且也不可能改变事实她很难离开孤儿院一步的;可是洁茹仍然忍不住会想,如果有一天,她也能拎着行李,像这些董事大人们一样,跨进轿车,吩咐司机回家,那会是一种什麽样的感觉?
