6、什么？下面這篇文章講述了莎士比亞這段時(shí)期的生活。文章選自詹 尼弗？芭斯特著的莎 士比亞的生平和時(shí)代。作者用莎士比亞的同鄉(xiāng)和終生朋友托比作為故 事的講述人。1. 那是1579年10月一個(gè)陽(yáng)光燦爛的日子，就在斯特拉特福鎮(zhèn)外一個(gè)很大的果園子附近，我初次遇見(jiàn)威爾。我看見(jiàn)蘋(píng)果樹(shù)上坐著個(gè)男孩，長(zhǎng)著一頭紅發(fā)，看起來(lái)比我大兩歲左右。2. “你在那上面干嗎？ "我喊道。3. “摘幾個(gè)蘋(píng)果，”他笑著答道。4. “那是納什農(nóng)場(chǎng)主的蘋(píng)果， ”我說(shuō)：“要是他看見(jiàn)了，會(huì)放狗出來(lái)追你的?！?. “納什先生趕集去了，”那個(gè)男孩說(shuō)：“來(lái)呀，這蘋(píng)果很不錯(cuò)的?！?. 不一會(huì)兒，我就也爬到樹(shù)上了?？墒峭栧e(cuò)了，納什農(nóng)場(chǎng)主并

7、沒(méi)有去趕集。幾分鐘后，我們就看見(jiàn)那邊兒蘋(píng)果園墻頭上露出一張憤怒 的、 漲得通紅的臉。7. 我和威爾象一陣風(fēng)似的飛跑而去，一直 跑到河邊才停下來(lái)。我們坐下來(lái)開(kāi)始啃蘋(píng)果。8. 威爾告訴我，他十五歲，住在亨利街。他的父親叫約翰？ 莎士比亞。他有個(gè)姐姐叫瓊，有兩個(gè)弟弟一一吉爾伯特和理查德。后來(lái)我才知道，他其實(shí)還有個(gè)姐姐，但已經(jīng)死了。到了第二年，他又添了個(gè)弟弟一一小埃德蒙，他們 家的小寶貝。9. “我在教堂街詹金斯先生的學(xué)校上學(xué)，”威爾說(shuō)：“從上午7點(diǎn)到下午5點(diǎn)，天天上課。 當(dāng) 然，星期天是不上的?！?0. 我為他感到難過(guò)?！笆遣皇呛芸菰餆o(wú)味？ ”我問(wèn)道。11. “有時(shí)候是。平時(shí)還可以?！彼闪讼氯ィ?/p>

8、雙手墊著后腦勺。“不過(guò)我們得學(xué)習(xí)那些拉丁作家，讀他們的作品。我想讀當(dāng)代的、尤其是英國(guó)作家的作品。比如杰弗里？喬叟。你識(shí)字嗎？ ”他問(wèn)道。only stopped when we reached the river. we satdow n to eat our apples.8. w川 was fifteen, and lived in henley street, he told me. his father was john shakespeare, and he had a sister, joan, and twoyounger brothers, gilbert and richar

12、iends from that day, until the day he died. we met nearly every day, and he taught me a lot about books and poetry and writers. he was always dilige nt in his studies.15. when will left school, he worked for his father. john shakespeare was a glove-maker, and he had other bus in ess too, like buying

13、 and selli ng sheep.12. “我當(dāng)然識(shí)字了，"我說(shuō)：“我上過(guò)學(xué)。”13. 威爾坐起來(lái)，開(kāi)始啃另一只蘋(píng)果。 “我 想 當(dāng)一名作家，”他說(shuō)：“一名詩(shī)人。這是我最最想干的事兒?！?4. 從那天起我們就成了好朋友，一直到他去世。我們幾乎天天見(jiàn)面，他教給了我許多關(guān)于書(shū)、詩(shī)歌和作家的知識(shí)。學(xué)業(yè)上，他總是非 常勤奮。15. 威爾離開(kāi)學(xué)校后在他父親那兒做事。約翰?莎士比亞是個(gè)手套制造商，兼做販羊之類(lèi)的生意。不過(guò)威爾對(duì)此不感興趣。16. “托比，我們能做什么呢？ " 一天他對(duì)我說(shuō)?！拔覀兛偛荒芤惠呑幼鲂褪痔装?！”17. “嗯，我們可以離家出走，到海上去做水手，像弗朗西斯

14、？德雷克那樣探索世界?！?8. 德雷克經(jīng)過(guò)三年的環(huán)球遠(yuǎn)航，于 1581 年返回普利茅斯港。 可我們還呆在斯特拉特福。 我 們有過(guò)很多打算，但都一無(wú)所成。19. 威爾仍在大量閱讀，而且已經(jīng)開(kāi)始自己 做詩(shī)了。有時(shí)他把做好的詩(shī)拿給我看，我就說(shuō) 詩(shī)做得非常好。事實(shí)上，我那時(shí)對(duì)詩(shī)一竅不通，不過(guò)他是我的朋友嘛。20. 威爾對(duì)他的作品并不滿(mǎn)意。“托比，我要學(xué)的東西還太多、太多，”他說(shuō)。21. 關(guān)于女人，威爾也還要多多學(xué)習(xí)呢。1582年10月的一天，他滿(mǎn)臉憂(yōu)郁地來(lái)到我家。22. “我再也不能離開(kāi)斯特拉特福了，”他說(shuō)，“再過(guò)幾周我就要結(jié)婚了，她叫安妮 ？哈 撒 薇?！?3. 11月，威爾和安妮？哈撒薇結(jié)婚了，她

15、搬到亨利街來(lái)住。成家立業(yè)了，每月開(kāi)銷(xiāo)會(huì) 很大。那一 段時(shí)間，約翰？莎士比亞在錢(qián)方面可謂麻煩不斷。在亨利街的那段日子可真不好 過(guò)。24. 次年5月，蘇珊娜出生了。威爾非常 喜歡 她。25. “瞧，托比，她的眼睛像我呢，”他興 奮地說(shuō)，“她會(huì)長(zhǎng)得像埃及的皇后一樣漂亮，像所羅門(mén)國(guó)王一樣聰明。”26. 我沒(méi)怎么見(jiàn)過(guò)威爾的妻子。她來(lái)自一個(gè)非常嚴(yán)肅的清教家庭。常去教堂，從不唱歌， 也不跳舞。27. 很快又一個(gè)嬰兒要出生了。1585年2月的一個(gè)傍晚，我急匆匆地趕到亨利街去探望。but w川 was n't in terested.16. "what are we going to do,

16、toby?" he said to me one day. "we can't spe nd all our lives making shoes and gloves!"17. "well," i said, "we couldrunaway to sea and be sailors. explore the world, like francis drake."18. drakesailed backtoplymouth in 1581, after his three-year expedition roun

21、很高興。不過(guò)好景不長(zhǎng)。30. 我和威爾有空時(shí)仍一塊轉(zhuǎn)轉(zhuǎn)。他仍在讀書(shū)，也在寫(xiě)。不久，我就看出他有了變化。他 現(xiàn)在 23歲了，對(duì)他的生活很不滿(mǎn)意。31. “托比，斯特拉特福太小了，”他說(shuō)，“節(jié)奏太慢，太安靜，太單調(diào)了。我得離開(kāi)這兒?！?2. “是呀，可是怎么走呢？" 我問(wèn)道，“別忘了你有一個(gè)家，家里還有三個(gè)小孩子呢?！?3. 他沒(méi)有回答。34. 每年夏天的那幾個(gè)月里，經(jīng)常有劇團(tuán)到 小鎮(zhèn)上來(lái)。1587年間，就有5個(gè)不同的劇團(tuán)來(lái) 過(guò)。我 和威爾經(jīng)常去看演出。威爾喜歡和演員交談，聽(tīng)他們講有關(guān)倫敦的種種故事。35. 6月，女王劇團(tuán)來(lái)到了斯特拉特福。我 們?nèi)タ?演出。威爾說(shuō)那個(gè)劇本非常拙劣，沒(méi)有

23、開(kāi)始感到害怕。這是一座其大 無(wú)比 的城市，而我們不過(guò)是兩個(gè)從小鎮(zhèn)上來(lái)的 微不足道 的年輕人。 我永遠(yuǎn)也忘不了那喧鬧聲，那氣味兒，那擁擠的人流。倫敦有 20萬(wàn)人，我 以前可從沒(méi)見(jiàn)過(guò)這么多的人。as beautiful as the quee n of egypt, and asclever as king solomon."26 . i did n't see much of will's wife.she came from a very serious, purita n family.lots of church-go ing, and no singing or

29、像不像。48. 威爾不分白天黑夜地忙碌著。我現(xiàn)在也不記得他什么時(shí)候睡過(guò)覺(jué)。他在劇里扮演角色，他寫(xiě)自己的劇本，讀書(shū)，與其他作家會(huì)面、交 友他不停地學(xué)呀，學(xué)呀，學(xué)呀。49. 一天，我們碰見(jiàn)了勃貝奇，這是斯頓 基伯 爵劇團(tuán)的一個(gè)演員。50. “威爾，你已經(jīng)寫(xiě)了四個(gè)劇本了，”他說(shuō)，“都不錯(cuò)。你在不斷地進(jìn)步啊。作為演 員，我 也在不斷提高。到河畔街的玫瑰劇場(chǎng)來(lái) 為斯頓基伯 爵劇團(tuán)工作吧。你可以為我們寫(xiě)劇 本?！?1. 在玫瑰劇場(chǎng)，我們比以往任何時(shí)候都更賣(mài)勁兒地工作。因?yàn)楣饩€(xiàn)的原因，劇一般都在下午演出。我們上午排練。到吃午飯的時(shí)侯，已經(jīng)有人從河那邊過(guò)來(lái)，找好位置等著看劇了。觀(guān)眾越來(lái)越多。到了 1592年，
