>>2018英语专八翻译：沉默

无声即沉默。沉默有各式各样——

腹中空泛，思想一片苍白，故而无言可发，这是沉默;热情已如柴薪尽燃，故而冷漠处世，无喜无悲，无忧无愤，对人世的一切都失去兴趣和欲望，这也是沉默。

有过爱，有过恨，有过迷茫，有过颖悟，有过一呼百应的呐喊，有过得不到的呼唤，然而却守口如瓶，只是平静地冷眼察看世界，这是沉默;饱经忧患，阅尽人生百态，胸有千山万壑的屐痕，有江河湖海的涛声，然而却深思不语，这也是沉默。

参考译文

Silence is soundlessness; silence exists in different forms.

An empty head or a blank mind leads to speechlessness—that is silence. Enthusiasm fades like dying embers and thus leads to cynicism and indifference to life, which arouses neither happiness nor sadness, neither worries nor anger, and which costs people their interest in and desire for anything—that is silence.

Despite all the experiences of love and hate, of disorientation and reorientation, of order-giving that was answered by hundreds and call-issuing that was not answered by a single soul, there is not a word uttered, but only a calm eye that watches on this world—that is also silence.

Worries and sufferings, tastes of changes and vicissitudes of the world, footprints left in mountains and valleys and noises of rivers and oceans cherished in the heart are all but hidden unrevealed—that is still silence.

背景介绍

《沉默》是中国著名散文家、诗人赵丽宏(1951~)的作品。近年来，赵丽宏写了不少感物咏志之作。这些诗篇都表现了诗人的道德理想和人格追求。其中一类倾吐了一种安于平凡、默默奉献的情愫。《沉默》即是其中之一。赵丽宏通过这些诗反复歌颂了拒绝庸俗的清高节操和岁月不磨的生活信念。如果我们把他所宣扬的这种坚贞而又坚韧的高尚品格放在当今社会中弥漫的那股浮华浮躁之气的背景下，便不难理解他那诗美锋芒的现实意义。
