Unit OneSection AThe Green Banana 参考译文青香蕉[1] 我与青香蕉的邂逅始于巴西内地一条陡峭的山路上，尽管这样的事也可能发生在其它任何地方。

正当我的老掉牙的吉普车吃力地爬着坡，穿过风景迷人的乡野时，车子散热器开始漏水了，而那里距最近的修理铺有十英里路。

发动机温度太高，逼得我在下一个村庄边把车停下。

村里有一家小店和零散的一些房屋。

人们过来围观。

三股细细的热水从散热器外壳的漏洞喷出。

“这好修理，”一个男人说。

他叫一男孩跑去拿几根青香蕉来。

这人拍着我的肩膀要我相信一切都会解决的。

“青香蕉，”他微笑着说。

周围的人表示赞同。

[2] 我们互相寒暄的同时，我琢磨着青香蕉能会有什么用。

要是追问的话就显得我无知。

所以我就评论起这一带的美景了。

巨大的岩石构造像里约热内卢的糖塔山一样耸立在我们的周围。

“你看见那边那块高高的岩石了吗？”这位要帮我忙的男人指着一座细长高耸的黑色岩块的尖顶问道。

“那块岩石标志着世界的中心。

”[3] 我看着他，想知道他是否在开我玩笑，但他满脸严肃的表情。

这时他也仔细地盯着我，看我是否理解了他那话的含义。

此时此刻需要我做出认可的表示。

“世界的中心？”我重复着。

尽管我不是全然相信，仍竭力表示出我很感兴趣。

他点点头，“绝对是中心。

这一带，人人皆知。

”[4] 这时一个男孩拿着为我摘的青香蕉回来了。

那个人把香蕉掰成两半，把断面压在散热器的外壳上。

香蕉碰在热金属上后，化成了胶状物，立即就把漏洞堵住了。

所有人都被我惊讶的神态逗乐了。

他们重新灌满了我的散热器，并给我了一些备用的香蕉带上。

路上我又用青香蕉堵了一次。

一小时后，我和我的散热器到达了目的地。

当地的机修工笑着对我说：“谁教你用青香蕉的？”我说出了那个村子。

”“他们让你看标志着世界中心的那块岩石了吗？”他问道。

我作了肯定的回答。

“我的爷爷是那儿人。

”他说，“那儿是正中心，这一带的所有人都知道。

”[5] 作为美国高等教育的产物，我还从未对青香蕉发生过一丁点儿兴趣，只不过把它作为一种成熟时机未到的水果。
