UNIT 7 TRANSLATION Page 955．Translate the sentences into Chinese.1. As a small boy I was always fascinated at the sounds the coins made as theywere dropped into the jar. They landed with a merry jingle when the jar was almost empty. Then the tones gradually muted to a dull thud as the jar was filled.小时候，我对那些硬币落在坛子里发出的声响总是很着迷。
当坛子几乎还是空着的时候，硬币落进去时发出的是欢快的叮当声。
等到坛子快要装满的时候，叮当声便渐渐变成了沉闷的砰砰声。
2. My dad was a man of few words, and never lectured me on the values ofdetermination, perseverance, and faith. The pickle jar had taught me all these virtues far more eloquently than the most flowery of words could have done.(注意values和the most flowery of words的意思)爸爸是一个沉默寡言的人，从来没有对我讲过决心、毅力和信仰等价值观的重要性。
但是这个泡菜坛却教给了我这些美德，它的说服力远远胜过华丽的词藻。
3. To my amazement, there, as if it had never been removed, stood the old picklejar, the bottom already covered with coins.令我感到惊讶的是，那儿放着那个旧泡菜坛，坛底已经铺满了硬币，就好像它从来不曾被拿走过。
UNIT 8TEXTA young boy faces the impossible task of trying to soften the blow of tragic mews.You Go Your Way, I'll Go MineThe messenger got off his bicycle in front of the house of Mrs. Rosa Sandoval. He went to the door and knocked gently. He knew almost immediately that someone was inside the house. He could not hear anything, but he was sure the knock was bringing someone to the door and he was most eager to see who this person would be -- his woman named Rosa Sandoval who was now to heat of murder in the world and to feel it in herself. The door was not a long time opening, but there was no hurry in the way it moved on its hinges. The movement of the door was as if, whoever she was, she and nothing in the world to fear. Then the door was open, and there she was.To Homer the Mexican woman was beautiful. He could see that she had been patient all her life, so that now, after years of it, her lips were set in a gentle and saintly smile. But like all people who never receive telegrams the appearance of a messenger at the front door is full of terrible implication. Homer knew that Mrs. Rosa Sandoval was shocked to see him. Her first word was the first word of all surprise. She said "Oh," as if instead of a messenger she had thought of opening the door to someone she had know a long time and would be pleased to sit down with. Before she spoke again she studied Homer's eyes and Homer Knew that she knew the message was not a welcome one."You have a telegram?" she said.It wasn't Homer's fault. His work was to deliver telegrams. Even so, it seemed to him that he was part of the whole mistake. He felt awkward and almost as if he alone were responsible for what had happened. At the same time he wanted to come right out and say, "I'm only a messenger, Mrs. Sandoval, I'm very sorry I must bring you a telegram like this, but it is only because it is my work to do so.""Who is it for?" the Mexican woman said."Mrs. Rosa Sandoval, 1129 G Street." Homer said. He extended the telegram to the Mexican woman, but she would not touch it."Are you Mrs. Sandoval?" Homer said."Please," the woman said. "Please come in. I cannot read English. I am Mexican. I read only La Prensa which comes from Mexico City." She paused a moment and looked at the boy standing awkwardly as near the door as he could be and still be inside the house."Please," she said, "what does the telegram say?""Mrs. Sandoval," the messenger said, "the telegram says --"But now the woman interrupted him. "But you must open the telegram and read it to me," she said. "You have not opened it.""Yes, ma'am," Homer said as if he were speaking to a school teacher who had just corrected him.He opened the telegram with nervous fingers. The Mexican woman stooped to pick up thetorn envelope, and tried to smooth it out. As she did so she said, "Who sent the telegram -- my son Juan Domingo?""No, ma'am." Homer said. "The telegram is from the War Department.""War Department?" the Mexican woman said."Mrs. Sandoval," Homer said swiftly, "your son is dead. Maybe it's a mistake, Everybody makes a mistake, Mrs. Sandoval. Maybe it wasn't your son. Maybe it was somebody else. The telegram says it was Juan Domingo. But maybe the telegram is wrong,"The Mexican woman pretended not to hear."Oh, do not be afraid," she said. "Come inside. Come inside. I will bring you candy." She took the boy's arm and brought him to the table at the center of the room and there she made him sit."All boys like candy," she said. "I will bring you candy." She went into another room and soon returned with an old chocolate candy box. She opened the box at the table and in it Homer saw a strange kind of candy."Here," she said. "Eat this candy. All boys like candy."Homer took a piece of the candy from the box, put it into his mouth, and tried to chew."You would not bring me a bad telegram," she said. "You are a good boy -- like my little Juanito when he was a little boy. Eat another piece." And she made the messenger take another piece of the candy.Homer sat chewing the dry candy while the Mexican woman talked. "It is our own candy," she said, "from cactus. I made it for my Juanito when he come home, but you eat it. You are my boy, too."Now suddenly she began to sob, holding herself in as if weeping were a disgrace. Homer wanted to get up and run, but he knew he would stay. He even thought he might stay the rest of his life. He just didn't know what else to do to try to make the woman less unhappy, and if she had asked him to take the place of her son, he would not have been able to refuse, because he would not have known how. He got to his feet, as if by standing he meant to begin correcting what could not be corrected and then he knew the foolishness of this intention and became more awkward than ever. In his heart he was saying over and over again, "What can I do? What the hell can I do? I'm only the messenger."NEW WORDSsoftenv.
