He was not a good student, and had he not been from a famous family, he probably would have been removed

2、 from the school for deviating from the rules. Thankfully, he did finish at Harrow and his errors there did not preclude him from going on to the university. He eventually had a premier army career whereby he was later elected prime minister. He achieved fame for his wit, wisdom, civic duty, and abu

26、 his overactive behavior and nonstop talking as a child, Les was placed in special education classes for the learning disabled all the way through high school. Upon graduation, he became a garbage collector. The prospective opportunities for his future looked slim to others, but not to Les. He had a

He was destined to be a disc jockey, also known as a "DJ", one of the radio celebrities mixing music broadcasts for the whole city.萊斯·布朗和其孿生兄弟出生于邁阿密一個(gè)異常貧困的街區(qū)，出生后不久就一起被廚工瑪米·布朗收養(yǎng)。由于兒時(shí)過度好動(dòng)，還愛不停地說話，萊斯被送到專為學(xué)習(xí)困難兒童而設(shè)的特殊

28、教育班，并一直讀到了高中。一畢業(yè)，他就成了一名垃圾清運(yùn)工。大家都覺得他將來不會(huì)有什么好前途，但他自己卻不這么想。他有激情，有夢(mèng)想一個(gè)讓他為之奮斗的偉大夢(mèng)想。他覺得自己一定會(huì)成為電臺(tái)音樂唱片節(jié)目主持人，通常也叫“DJ”，那可是電臺(tái)名人，專門為面向全市的廣播制作音樂節(jié)目。At night he would take a radio to bed so he could indulge his dream by listening to the local DJs. He created an imaginary radio station in his tiny bedroom. A hairbr

30、on the real world. Nonetheless, Les didn't let their negativity stop him. He kept his goals close to his heart and remained wrapped up in his own world, completely absorbed in preparing for his future, preparing to live his dream as a renowned DJ.一到晚上，他就帶著收音機(jī)上床睡覺，這樣他就可以一邊聽著當(dāng)?shù)?DJ 的節(jié)目，一邊沉浸在自己的夢(mèng)想里。

31、他在自己的小臥室里營(yíng)造了一個(gè)假想電臺(tái)。他把梳子當(dāng)麥克風(fēng)，勁頭十足地對(duì)著想象中的聽眾練習(xí)自己的杰作。他無休止地練習(xí)讓朋友們不勝其煩。他們都說他根本沒有機(jī)會(huì)，永遠(yuǎn)都不可能成為 DJ。他們嘲弄他，告訴他別做白日夢(mèng)，要面對(duì)現(xiàn)實(shí)。然而，這些負(fù)面影響并沒有讓萊斯停止追求。他心中一直銘記自己的目標(biāo)，繼續(xù)沉浸在自己的世界里，全身心投入到對(duì)未來的準(zhǔn)備中，去實(shí)現(xiàn)他成為著名 DJ 的夢(mèng)想。One day Les decided to take the initiative and begin with this enterprise. He boldly went to the local radio statio

33、quot;Well, son, I'm afraid we don't have a job for you then," he responded bluntly. So, Les' first chance at success had been a complete bust.一天，萊斯決定主動(dòng)出擊，開始自己的事業(yè)。他大膽地來到當(dāng)?shù)仉娕_(tái)，告訴經(jīng)理他熟悉電臺(tái)布局環(huán)境，完全可以成為一名 DJ。經(jīng)理滿腹狐疑地看著這個(gè)一身工作服還戴著頂草帽的邋遢年輕人，問他：“你了解播音的專業(yè)知識(shí)嗎？”萊斯回答說：“不，先生，我不了解。”“哦，孩子，那恐怕我們沒法雇用你，”經(jīng)理

His persistence was very persuasive, and the station manager finally gave in and took Les on to do small tasks - at no pay. Les brought coffee and food. He catered to their every

Eventually, his enthusiasm won their confidence and they would send Les in their Cadillac to pick up celebrities, not knowing that he didn't even have a driver's license!萊斯十分堅(jiān)定。他很愛自己的養(yǎng)母瑪米·布朗，還精打細(xì)算攢錢為她買喜歡的東西。盡管人人都打擊他，但她卻十分信任他，告訴他不管別人怎么

37、說，都要追求自己的目標(biāo)，堅(jiān)持自己的夢(mèng)想。因此，不管電臺(tái)經(jīng)理之前怎么說，萊斯每天還是會(huì)去電臺(tái)，這樣持續(xù)了一周。他的堅(jiān)持很能打動(dòng)人，電臺(tái)經(jīng)理終于讓了步，讓他做一些小事情不過沒有報(bào)酬。萊斯負(fù)責(zé)給大家提供咖啡和吃的東西。他在工作中盡力滿足大家的每一個(gè)要求，而且只要有需要，任何時(shí)候都可以加班。最后，他的工作熱情贏得了大家的信任，他們讓萊斯開著凱迪拉克去接送名人，居然不知道他連駕照都沒有。While hanging out with the station's real DJs, Les taught himself their posture and hand movements on the

38、control panel. He stayed around the studio, soaking up whatever knowledge he could. He was disciplined; back in his bedroom at night, he faithfully practiced in anticipation of the opportunity he knew would come.One afternoon at work, the DJ named Rock started to feel very sick while on the air. Les

39、 was the only person around, and he realized that Rock was coughing and losing his voice. Les stayed close in case there was some way he might help alleviate his coworker's distress. He also worried that the illness was sure to doom this broadcast.與電臺(tái)真正的 DJ 相處時(shí)，萊斯自學(xué)他們操作調(diào)音臺(tái)的姿勢(shì)和手勢(shì)。他徘徊在播音間，力所能及地汲取全

40、部知識(shí)。他非常自律，晚上一回到房間，就滿懷著期待不懈地練習(xí)，他知道機(jī)遇終會(huì)降臨。一天下午，工作期間，一個(gè)名叫洛克的 DJ 在直播時(shí)突然病得厲害。周圍只有萊斯，而他意識(shí)到洛克正在咳嗽，都快不能說話了。萊斯湊近他，看看有什么辦法能幫助同事減輕痛苦。他也擔(dān)心這病肯定會(huì)讓廣播無法進(jìn)行下去。Finally, when the phone rang, Les grabbed it. It was the station manager, as he knew it would be."Les, this is Mr. Klein. I don't think Rock can finis

41、h his program,"Yes," he murmured, "I know.""Would you call one of the other deejays to come in and take over?""Yes, sir, I sure will."最后，電話鈴響了，萊斯抓起電話。正是電臺(tái)經(jīng)理，對(duì)此他已有預(yù)感。“萊斯，我是克萊因。我覺得洛克沒辦法做完這期節(jié)目了。”“是的，”他低聲說，“我知道。” “你能打電話叫其他 DJ 來接替他嗎？” “好的，先生，我一定去叫?！盉ut try as he mi

42、ght, none of the regular DJs were available. MC Cormick and DJ Slick were both out of town for the weekend and DJ Neil was also feeling sick. It seemed that the radio station was in big trouble.Frantic with distress, Les called the general manager. "Mr. Klein, I can't find nobody," Les

43、 said.但他找了個(gè)遍，卻發(fā)現(xiàn)一個(gè)正式 DJ 都找不到。主持人考密克和 DJ 斯雷克都出城度周末去了，尼爾身體也不舒服。似乎電臺(tái)的麻煩大了。萊斯無計(jì)可施，幾欲抓狂，只好給總經(jīng)理打電話。“克萊因先生，一個(gè)人都找不到，”萊斯說。Mr. Klein then asked, "Young man, do you know how to work the controls in the studio?""Yes sir," replied Les, grinning with the sudden opportunity. He didn't even

44、blink before he called his mother and his friends. "You all go out on the front porch and turn up the radio because I'm about to come on the air!" he said.克萊因先生于是問道：“小伙子，你知道怎么操作播音間里的調(diào)音臺(tái)么？” “我知道的，先生，”萊斯回答，為突如其來的機(jī)會(huì)笑了。他一刻都不耽擱，馬上給母親和朋友們打了電話?！澳銈兌嫉角袄热ィ蜷_收音機(jī)，我馬上要直播了！”他說。Les rushed into the bo

47、icon in broadcasting, politics, public speaking and television.萊斯沖進(jìn)播音間，把洛克扶到附近的沙發(fā)上，然后坐上了他的位置。他已做好準(zhǔn)備。打開麥克風(fēng)，他流利地開始了一段說唱：“注意啦！我是萊布，萊斯·布朗！空前絕后的萊斯·布朗，獨(dú)一無二的萊斯·布朗。我青春年少，單身無掛，喜愛結(jié)交；我會(huì)讓你心滿意足，動(dòng)能無限。來吧，親愛的，我就是你喜愛的那個(gè)人。”正因?yàn)槿R斯勤于準(zhǔn)備，他才能一切就緒。聽眾為之折服，經(jīng)理為之鼓掌。在那決定命運(yùn)的一刻后，萊斯不斷前進(jìn)，成為在廣播、政治、演講和電視等領(lǐng)域的一位偶像級(jí)人物。Unit

Massive waves surged against large rocks that formed a waterproof jetty. People said this beach was known for its notorious rip currents

49、. I shivered with fear. Nothing scared me as much as water.Just the sight of the sea made me sick to my stomach.當(dāng)時(shí)我和朋友正在法國(guó)旅行，我們把汽車停在海灘，眼前就是地中海。巨浪翻滾擊打著構(gòu)筑起防波堤的偌大巖石。人們說這里的海灘以其可怕的裂流而著稱?？謶肿屛也缓酢]有什么比水讓我更害怕了。只是看到了海就已經(jīng)讓我覺得反胃。I'd always loved water and been a good swimmer until last summer, when I'

The next thing I knew, my brother was pulling my feeble body out of the pool. From then on, my fear wouldn&#

51、39;t recede; I was absolutely terrified of water."Jason, are you coming?" my friend, Matt, called.我曾經(jīng)一直都是喜歡水的，并且直到去年夏天我都還是一名游泳好手。那時(shí)，我決定爬上游泳池邊上最高的跳板來跳水。我從那么高的地方跳下，重重地撞擊到水面上。我肺里的空氣一下子全被擠出去了，馬上不省人事。醒來時(shí)發(fā)現(xiàn)哥哥正把我虛弱的身體從游泳池里拖出來。從那時(shí)起，我對(duì)水的恐懼就沒有消退過，我怕極了水。 “賈森，你要過來嗎？”我的朋友馬特朝我喊道。"Yeah," I said

52、. "Just enjoying the view," from dry land, I added silently, worried they might deem my fear pathetic if they knew.Suddenly I heard shouting in French. A mob of people were running into the sea, fully clothed. That's odd, I thought.我說：“好，就是欣賞一下景色”，又在心里默默加了一句在岸上欣賞。擔(dān)心如果他們知道我害怕水而可憐我。突然，我聽

53、到有人用法語(yǔ)喊叫。接著看見一群人沒脫衣服，就沖到海里。我心想，這真是太奇怪了。I glimpsed something moving up and down amid the waves, past the end of the jetty. I gasped, realizing the catastrophe with horror. That's a little boy out there! The would-be rescuers fought against the tide, but the situation was bleak. With the water'

His head popped up, then a wave crashed over him and he disappeared for a moment; I had to intervene.我瞥見防波堤盡頭的海浪中有個(gè)東西在上下浮動(dòng)。我驚恐地意識(shí)到大事不妙，倒吸了一口涼氣，那居然是個(gè)小男孩！前去救落水男童的人們搏擊著海浪，但情況卻不樂觀。由于水的拉拽，他們根本不可能及時(shí)游到小男孩身邊。我扭頭看看那小男孩。他的頭剛露出水面，然后一個(gè)浪頭打過來，好

55、一陣不見蹤影我不得不做點(diǎn)什么了。I appraised the situation and realized - the jetty! The boy was close to it; maybe I could help from there. I raced down the beach, out onto the jetty, and it hit me: Water! My palms got sweaty and my stomach felt sick, symptoms of my fear. I stopped short.The people in the water had

56、 underestimated the waves and weren't making any progress. I was the only one who saw that going out on the jetty was the fastest way to reach the drowning boy. Yet in the midst of this tragedy, I was extremely terrified. I tried to remember the lifeguard training I'd had as a teenager.我估計(jì)了當(dāng)

I don't want this. Surel

Focus, I shouted in my head. Where is he?我因恐懼而全身癱軟，但我強(qiáng)迫自己向前移動(dòng)，展開這場(chǎng)突發(fā)的救援行動(dòng)。我不想做這些，在我施救之前肯定會(huì)有別人救他吧。我在防波堤的邊上迅速轉(zhuǎn)過身來，深信會(huì)看

60、見某個(gè)游泳健將正向著小男孩劈波斬浪。但是讓我沮喪的是，一個(gè)人也沒有。我回身面向大海，看見 25 碼開外惡浪擊打著小男孩。我深吸一口氣，縱身躍入水中。一跳進(jìn)水里，我感覺仿佛又回到了當(dāng)年的那個(gè)游泳池，我喘不過氣，拼命掙扎，驚恐萬分。咸水刺痛了我的雙眼?！凹凶⒁饬Γ蔽以谛睦锖暗?。“他在哪里？”Then, with clarity, I saw a thin arm waving weakly a few yards away. I swam with all my strength, reaching the boy just as he sank below the surface. I grabbed his arm and pulled. He popped back up, eyes wide with terror, pawing and twisting against me. "Repose (Calm down)!" I commanded the boy in French. His struggling would derail any rescue attempt, and we'd both peris
