问题     二十年来,我生活费中至少十分之一二是消耗在书上的。我的房子里比较贵重的东西就是书。书籍到了我的手里,我的习惯是先看序文,次看目录。页数不多的往往立刻通读,篇幅大的,只把正文任择一二章节略加翻阅,就插在书架上。除小说外,我少有全体读完的大部的书,只凭了购人当时的记忆,知道某册书是何种性质,其中大概有些什么可取的材料而已。什么书在什么时候再去读再去翻,连我自己也无把握,完全要看一个时期一个时期的兴趣。

选项

答案 For the past twenty years, books have eaten into at least 10-20 percent of my pocket. Now the only things of some value under my roof, if any, are my books. As soon as a new book comes to hand, I always read the preface first and then the table of contents. If it happens to be a thin one, I often finish it at one sitting. Otherwise, I often browse through one or two chapters or sections before putting it onto my bookshelf. I seldom read a thick book from cover to cover unless it is a novel. By dint of the first impression it made on me at the time of buying, I have a rough idea of what a book is about and what useful materials in it are available to me. But I have little idea which book is to be read or looked over again at what time. It is completely subject to the whims of the moment.

解析 本文选自著名文学家、教育家、出版家夏丐尊的《我之于书》一文。他的文学创作以散文为主,多随笔、杂感,内容积极,风格平淡朴素。翻译时,和上题中的《背影》一文一样,需要注意汉语意合和英文形合的特点,同时结合散文语言的特点,对原文句子进行恰当整合。
