三、全文翻译Passage A我在哈佛的第一周新生进入哈佛校园的第一天，据说总是令人激动不已。这的确也是我来到哈佛第一天的真实写照。父母陪着我开车驶过主校门进入校园时，那柔和的阳光透过绿树间隙照射在古老的砖墙建筑上。沾满晨露的绿草在阳光下闪闪发光。我凝视着车窗外面的迷人景色，心中暗想“最幸运的新生不过如此了！”我们来到了卡纳迪公寓——我的宿舍楼。我和四个女孩同住在四室一厅的套房里。这个套房在顶楼，天花板很高，上面有天窗。从卡纳迪公寓到餐厅和上课的教室都只需要两分钟的路程。我很喜欢自己的室友。我们各自的背景、种族、宗教信仰和兴趣爱好都完全不同。这也反映出哈佛引以自豪的“多样性”。第一周，幸亏有这样四个可称为朋友的女孩相伴，帮助我顺利度过了到哈佛后的这段适应期。这一周有许多重要的决定需要我来做，而没有父母和好友的帮助，有时我会感到十分艰难。选课是第一步。在哈佛，新生唯一的必修课是说明文写作。这一年，我实际上可以选修我想学的任何课程，而且课程的门类出奇地多！我该如何选择呢？庆幸的是哈佛允许新生在“选课周”里到课堂试听。上课时间和平时一样，我们可以试听任何想选修的课程，多少不限。如果我最后决定选修某一门课程，我就要完成“选课周”里布置的所有功课。另外，如果我试听了一门选课表上看似很好的课程，却发现这门课并不适合我，或教授讲课枯燥乏味，我可以决定不选修这门课！同样艰难的是在

众多的运动队、出版社团、乐队、戏剧社或俱乐部中做出选择。到底该参加哪一个呢？在哈佛，就餐肯定也是最能引得新生关注的事情之一。不过并不是指一日三餐吃的东西——尽管饭菜很可口，而是指就餐的环境真的很好。我们的餐厅与其说是个自助食堂，不如说更像是一个教堂或博物馆。桌子、椅子、地板、墙壁还有高高的天花板都是用华丽的深色木料制作的，油漆得精光锃亮。而且，大厅里悬挂着枝形吊灯墙，上镶嵌着明亮的彩色玻璃窗，厅里到处可见哈佛历史名人的雕塑和画像。哈佛第一周的所有这些经历将成为我毕生的珍贵记忆。然而，哈佛这一周给予我的最宝贵的财富，却是我遇到的其他同学。我在这儿遇到的每一个人都是那么朴实。每当我看到有人在嘉佩乐音乐会上演唱动人的歌曲，有人在才艺秀上表演精彩的小提琴独奏，有人在我去听的一堂课上阐述深刻的见解，我都惊讶不已！能够欣赏身边这么多有天赋的同学并能与他们相伴，这正是我在哈佛第一周体验到的最宝贵的经历。一周已经过去四年大学生活就在前头——真是令人迫不及待！Passage B回眸大学四年的时光已经过去，这一刻终于来临了。还有不到两周，我就要毕业了。此刻回想起来，我仍不敢相信时间过得如此之快。我依然记得第一天去上课时的情景，我一边望着课表背面的地图，一边打听教学楼在哪儿。现在我已是大四的学生，常会以羡慕的眼光看着一年级的新生。每天我都希望时间会停滞，接下来的两周过得更慢一些。许多我认识的人都迫不及待地想要毕业，我却恰恰相反。我宁愿时光倒流，再度重温大

学生活的每一天。对我来说，大学是一次伟大的学习经历。学习的过程多是在课外发生的。大二的生活也许是我生命中最非凡的一年。正是在这一年，我终于让妈妈相信我住校没有问题，她最终同意我住校了。正是在这一年，我结交了一些终生好友，历经多次的成功与失败使我对自己渐渐有了更多的了解。大二生活还有着种种新的尝试，到山地去野营，把信手涂鸦的诗投到报社，还在课堂上给老师画漫画。走在校园熟悉的路上，我在不知不觉中就陷入了深深的反思和对往昔的回忆。我发觉自己好想从头来过，再次体味大学生活的欢娱和激动。一想到毕业我心里就一阵阵恐慌。从记事起我就一直在读书。我觉得想学的东西还有很多，可是却不得不毕业了。世界如此之大，可能发生的事情太多太多。过去四年中，我一直被一张安全的网包围着。学生这个身份总能让人感到欣慰，使我可以逃避外面世界的现实。还有不到两周就要离校了，每每想到就要毕业，我就打心眼儿里感到不安。因为我从记事起就一直是名学生。我觉得自己是在回避毕业。每当别人问起我大学毕业后打算做什么时，我就想大声尖叫，我不知道以后想做些什么。我甚至不敢想象早上醒来没有课上会是什么样的情形。不久前，一次面试时，有人问我：“这是不是你想干一辈子的工作？”我觉得这个问题很可笑，还差点儿笑出声来，不过我还是说了实话——我不知道将来会是什么样子，过去的四年中，我已多次改变了想法，一辈子就干一行的想法简直就是一种折磨。午夜漫步于校园，我意识到自己将会多么怀念大学生活。每一个小小的事物都显得分外美丽，每一个小小的事物都让我意识到大学生活是多么精彩，多么独特。当依依不舍地关上我的大学生活之门时，我将永远珍

藏这些日子。
