Alex Haley was at sea (1) when he started thinking how best he could mark Thanksgiving. Turning over (2) the meaning of the holiday in his mind, he came to reverse(3) the order of the words and got to (4) thinking about giving thanks. How, he wondered, could herepay (5) those who had been so helpful to him in the past? It seemed to him that the best way he could express hisgratitude (6) would be to write to them. For too long he had gone about without troubling to tell how much he appreciated all that they had done for him. Before long he hadassembled(7) pen and paper and wasimmersed in (8) writing. Not long after the ship reached port, people started unloading (9) its cargo together with his letters. The replies were notswift (10) in arriving, but when they did, he found them deeply moving.

想怎样才能 回报那些回去帮助他的那些人呢？看起来能够表达 感激的最佳方式就是写信给他们。长久以来他都一直告诉自己他是多么感激他们为他所做的一

切。然后他 找到了笔和纸，专心写信。在船到达港口不就之后，人们开始卸货和来信。这些信回复的并不算 很快，但收到信的时候，他感到这些信如此感人。

I had only known Johnsy for a few months when she fell victim to（成为 ⋯受害者） the disease. We had met in May and, finding ourselves so muchin tune (1), had set up home together. Then, in November, she became ill.Scarcely(2) able to speak in a whisper (3), she seemed unable tocling to (4) life. It was such a change. Before she had always been so lively andmerry (5). Now she just sat up (6) in bed, staring out of the window. She had this strange belief that once the last leaf on the vine outside fell. She would die. I told her it was all nonsense(7), but to no effect.

It was our downstairs neighbor, Mr. Behrman, who came to her rescue. When he heard of Johnny’s strange fancy (8) he flew into a fierce temper（勃然大怒） , regarding it as asin (9) that one so young should give up life so easily.

Thanks to Behrman, the last leaf never did fall. Late at night he had climbed up and painted the leaf on the wall. It was his long-promisedmasterpiece(10).

共同之处 ，我们住在一起。在十一月，她生病了。 几乎不能低声说话 ，她看起来对生活好不 留恋。她的变化如此直达。 之前她还是那样的活泼与 快乐。现在她 坐 在 床上，盯着窗外看。她的想法很奇怪：一旦常青藤上的最后一片叶子落下来，她就死了。我告诉她不要 胡说，但没用。

我们楼下的 Behrman 先生来救她了。当他听说 Johnsy 的胡思乱想 ，他勃然大怒，他认为如此年轻就轻易放弃生命是一种 罪过。

多亏了 Behrman, 最后一片叶子没有落下。晚上晚些时候，他爬上墙在那里画了一片树叶。这是他长久以来所承诺的 杰作。

before I post it off. Otherwise, my firm will be on the phone(4) to me about it. Not that they have much to complain about. I always manage to sell quite a lot, except that time I was laid up (5) after surgery (6). I ’m the only representative the firm has out on the streets nowadays and I still manage to cover a large territory (7) despite my disorder (8). It ’s hard work and long hours, no time to linger in bed in the mornings. Yet, I’ve never regretted applying for (9) the job all those years ago. Supporting myself enables me to keep mydignity (10).

这是很漫长的一天， 我很高兴能回到家里， 感到如释重负 。我并未完成工作，还有那些订单需要打印， 我还要记得加上我的 签名，把它寄出这样才能拿到 佣金。否则，公司将会 打电话给我询问。他们也没什么可抱怨的。 我总是设法大量推销，除了那次 手术过后卧床休养 。如今我是这件公司唯一一个在大街上进行销售的代

表，尽管神经 失调，我仍旧设法去更大的 区域推销。这份工作不易，耗时又长，早晨没时间赖在床上。 然而，对于很多年前 申请这份工作我从未感到遗憾。 养活自己使我能够保持 尊严。

principal ” had ended with schoolsundergoingsuch swift changes that he hadretired

in self-doubt. “ I heard more of what I had done wrong than what I did right, ” he s adding that my letter had brought him welcome reassurancethat his career had been appreciated.

Old Behrman was a painter who lived on the ground floorbeneath them. He was past sixty and had a long white beard curling down over his chest. Despite looking the part, Behrman was a failure in art. For forty years he had been always about to paint a masterpiece, but had never yet begun it. He earned a little by serving as a model to those young artists who could not pay the price of a professional. He drank gin to excess,and still talked of his coming masterpiece. For the rest he was a fierce little old man, who mocked terribly at softness in any one, and who regarded himself as guard dog to the two young artists in thestudio above.

Sue found Behrman smelling strongly of gin in his dimly lighted studio below.

In one corner was a blank canvas on an easel (that had been waiting there for

twenty-five years to receive the first line of the masterpiece).She told him of Johnsy fancy, and how she feared she would,( indeed, light and fragile as a leaf herself, ) float away, when her slight hold upon the world grew weaker. Old Behrman, with his red eyes plainly streaming, shouted hiscontempt for such foolish imaginings.

老贝尔曼是住在两人楼下底层的一个画家。 他已年过六旬，银白色卷曲的长

须垂挂胸前。贝尔曼看上去挺像艺术家，但在艺术上却没什么成就。 40 年来他一直想创作一幅传世之作， 却始终没能动手。 他给那些请不起职业模特的青年画家当模特挣点小钱。 他没节制地喝酒， 谈论着他那即将问世的不朽之作。 要说其他方面，他是个好斗的小老头，要是谁表现出一点软弱，他便大肆嘲笑，并把自 己看成是楼上画室里两位年轻艺术家的看护人。

苏在楼下光线暗淡的画室里找到了贝尔曼， 他满身酒味刺鼻。 屋子一角的画

架上支着一张从未落过笔的画布，在那儿搁置了 25 年，等着一幅杰作的起笔。 苏把约翰西的怪念头跟他说了， 还说约翰西本人就像一片叶子又瘦又弱， 她害怕

Porter knew he wanted to be a salesman. He began reading help wanted ads in the newspaper. When he saw one for Watkins, a company that sold household products door-to-door, his mother set up a meeting with a representative. The man said no, but Porter wouldn ’listen. He just wanted a chance. The man gave in and offered Porter a section of the city that no salesman wanted.

他由于身体不能正常运行而使脑子无法充分发挥其功能。 他说话困难，而且慢，别人不耐烦， 不听他说。 他觉得自己不同于 ---事实上也确实不同于 ---那些在过道里东奔西跑的孩子，那些孩子安排的舞会他永远也不可能参加。

他将来会是什么样子呢？波特想做些事，母亲也相信他能冲破身体的局限，

在她的鼓励之下， 他向富勒牙刷公司申请一份工作， 结果却遭到拒绝， 他不能提 样品包，也不能跑一条推销线路，他们说。

波特知道自己想当推销员。 他开始阅读报纸上的招聘广告， 他看到沃特金斯，一家上门推销家用物品的公司要人， 他母亲就跟其代理人安排会面。 那人说不行，可波特就是不听。 他只需要一个机会， 那人让步了， 把城里一个其他销售员都不要的区域派给了他。
