A Simple Gesture
只是举手之劳
Mark
was
walking
home
from
school
one
day
when
he
noticed
that
the
boy
ahead
of
him
had
tripped
and dropped all of the books he was carrying,
along with two sweaters, a baseball bat, a
glove
and
a
small
tape

Mark
knelt
down
and
helped
the
boy
pick
up
the
scattered
articles.
一天放学后，
马克正走在回家的路上
，
突然看到前面的小男孩绊倒了，
他带的东西撒了一地，
其中有很多书、
两件羊毛衫、
一个棒球拍、<

一只手套，
还有一个小型录音机。
看到这
种场景，
马克不禁蹲下身，帮助男孩捡拾起来。
Since they were going the
same way, he helped to carry part of the burden.
As they walked Mark
discovered that the
boy's name was Bill, that he loved video games,
baseball and history, that he
was
having
a
lot
of
trouble
with
his
other
subjects
and
that
he
had
just
broken
up
with
his
girlfriend.
由于他们同路，
马克便帮男孩拿着一
些东西。
他们边走边聊。
马克了解到男孩名叫比尔，他
喜欢玩电脑游戏，喜欢打棒球；
他很喜欢历史课，
但其他科目却学得一塌糊涂。马克还了解
到他刚跟女朋友分了手。
They arrived at Bill's
home first and Mark was invited in for a Coke and
to watch some television.
The afternoon
passed pleasantly with a few laughs and some
shared small talk, then Mark went
home.
They

in the same high school where they had
brief contacts over the years. Finally
the long awaited senior year came, and three weeks
before
graduation, Bill asked Mark if
they could talk.
他们先是到了比尔的家里，比尔邀请马克喝可乐，并一起看电视。那个下午过得非常愉快，
< br>他们交流看法，还时不时地开怀大笑。然后，马克回家了。从此以后，他们继续往来，在学
校附近相见，一起吃过一两次午餐，并一起初中毕业。后来，他们升入同一所高中，并始终
保持着简短的接触。最后，终于盼到中学快要结束了。就在毕业前的第三周，比尔问马克，
他们是否可以谈一谈。
Bill reminded him of the
day years
ago when they had first met.
“Do you ever wonder why I was
carrying
so many things home that day?” asked Bill. “You
see, I cleaned out my locker because I
didn't want to leave a mess for anyone
else. I had stored away some of my mother's
sleeping pills
and
I
was
going
home
to
commit
suicide.
But
after

time

talking
and
laughing, I realized
that if I had killed myself, I would have missed
that time and so many others
that might
follow. So you see, Mark, when you picked up my
books that day, you did a lot more.
You
saved my life.”
比尔提到了多年前他们第一次相遇的那一天。
“你有没有想过为什么那天我会带着那么

“事实是，那天我把自己的橱柜全部

老师在作文后面批了一个大大的“差”字。
The teacher
gave him a “poor”in the last as the
evaluation..
老师说
：
“可笑！阳光怎么会有声音呢？！以后再也不能这样写了，要扣分的！
”
孩子觉得很委屈，也很难过。
The teacher said, “How
amuse you are! How can the sun make any noise?!
You are not allowed to
write the
composition in this way any more.. The marks you
get will be very low in this way.
那个“差”字像一个张牙舞爪的魔鬼，时时出现在他的梦里。

一天的阅读欣赏课，老师讲解的一位著名作家的文章里有一句：我听见了阳光的声音。

老师滔滔不绝地分析着这
句话多么的优美，多么的富有哲理，可孩子一句也听不进去。
But one day in an reading appreciation
course, the teacher interpreted the sentence “I

by a famous author. His teacher spouted how
graceful this sentence
was, and how
sensible it was, but he can hardly focus himself

孩子望了一眼窗外刺眼的阳光，想：阳光怎么会有声音呢？
想到这，他冷冷地笑了。
