Even though she was blind and deaf, Helen Keller was a woman with an extraordinary social vision. (46)
When most women’s rights activists were working for the right to vote, Helen Keller advocated action that was more direct and more immediate than the vote.
In 1911, speaking in England where women had the right to vote, she said: "Our democracy is but a name. We vote? What does that mean? It means that we choose between two bodies of real, though not avowed, autocrats. You ask for votes for women. (47)
What good can votes do when ten-elevenths of the land of Great Britain belongs to 200,000 men and only one-eleventh to the rest of the 40,000,000?
Have your men with their millions of votes freed themselves from this injustice?" (48)
When she became active and openly socialist, a New York city newspaper, the Brooklyn Eagle, which had previously treated her as a heroine, criticized that her misguided socialism had somehow developed from her blind and deaf condition.
She replied that when once she met the editor of the Brooklyn Eagle, he had complimented her lavishly: "But now that I have come out for socialism, he re minds me and the public that I am blind and deaf and especially liable to error."
She added: "Oh, ridiculous Brooklyn Eagle! What an ungallant bird it is! (49)
Socially blind and deaf, it defends an intolerable system, a system that is the cause of much of the physical blindness and deafness which we are trying to prevent.
The Eagle and I are at war. I hate the system which it represents—When it fights back, let it fight fair...It is not fair fighting or good argument to remind me and others that I cannot see or hear. I can read. I can read all the socialist books I have time for in English, German and French. If the editor of the Brooklyn Eagle should read some of them, he might be a wiser man, and make a better newspaper. (50)
If I ever contribute to the socialist movement, the book I sometimes dream of; I know what I shall name it: Industrial Blindness and Social Deafness".
选项
答案
对社会来说,《布鲁克林鹰报》又聋又瞎,它为一个令人无法忍受的制度辩护,这个制度是造成许多人在肉体上又聋又瞎的根源,而我们则在设法阻止它。
解析
省略法和简单复合句的译法。句子框架是:it(指the Brooklyn Eagle)defends a…system,a system that is the cause of…blindness and deafness which…。socially blind and deaf是省略了分词being的分词短语,作定语;a system that是前面system的同位语,that是关系代词引导定语从句,修饰system;在定语从句中关系代词which又引导定语从句,修饰blindness and deafness。
