The great statue, which was designed by the sculptor Auguste Bartholdi, took ten years to complete. The actual figure was made of copper supported by a metal framework which had been especially constructed by Eiffel. Before it could be transported to the United States, a site had to be found for it and a pedestal had to be built. The site chosen was an island at the entrance of New York Harbour. By 1884, a statue which was 151 feet tall had been erected in Paris. The following year, it was taken to pieces and sent to America. By the end of October 1886, the statue had been put together again and it was officially presented to the American people by Bartholdi. Ever since then, the great monument has been a symbol of liberty for the millions of people who have passed through New York Harbour to make their homes in America. 世界上最著名的纪念碑之一的自由女神雕像是在19世纪时由法国人民赠送给美国的。这座由 雕像家奥古斯特.巴索尔地的巨大雕像是用10年时间雕像刻成的。这座雕像的主体是用铜 制成的，由艾菲尔特制的金属框架支撑着。在雕像被运往美国之前，必须为它选好一块场地， 同时必须建造一个基座。场地选在了纽约港入口处的一个鸟上。到1884年，一座高度达151 英尺的雕像在巴黎竖立起来了。第二年，它被拆成若干小块，运到美国。到1886年10月底， 这座雕像被重新组装起来，由巴索尔地正式赠送给美国人民。从那时起，这座伟大的纪念碑对 通过纽约港进入美国定居的千百万人来说就一直是自由的象征。 11 riot police防暴警察 (即anti-riot police) spy film 反间谍片 crisis law 反危机法案 (即anti-crisis law) at a loss不知所措 After you, sir. 先生，您先请。Keep in lane!请勿换道～ Did you have a good trip?(旅途顺利吗,)路上辛苦了。 Please tender exact fare. 原译:请付确切数目的车费。 改译:请自备零钱，恕不找补。 Keep off the lawn! 请勿践踏草地～ I couldn’t agree with you more. 我完全同意你的看法。 Don’t forget to lock the door. 记着锁门。 the unbounded universe 浩瀚的宇宙 You are writing carelessly. 你写得潦潦草草、马马虎虎。 Everybody has his likes and dislikes. 人各有好恶。 Hold on please. 请别挂断。 I know him slightly. 我对他不太了解。 The plan is final. 此计划已无商量余地。 It’s all Greek to me. 我对此一窍不通。 It’s beyond expectation. 真是难以想象。 It’s more than I can describe. 我形容不出/无法形容。 That’s a thing that might happen to any man. 原译:这样的事情可能发生在任何人身上。 改译:这种事情谁也难免。 Mind your own business. 别多管闲事。 He was 75, but he carried his years lightly. 他七十五岁了，可是并不显老。 John was a fool for danger. 约翰是个天不怕地不怕的人。 His speech leaves much to be desired. 他的讲话不尽如人意。 Computers may eventually be able to learn by using such senses as smell, touch and taste.

I like people to stay with me but do not much care about staying with them, and usually say I am too busy. The only people we ask to stay with us are people we like--- I do not believe in business hospitality, which has the seed of corruption in it -- and all Fridays I work in a pleasant glow just because I know some nice people are coming down by the last train. I am genuinely glad to see them. But I suspect that I am still more delighted when they go, and the house is ours again. It is not that I feel that I have been mistaken in these guests, though this has happened of course at times. After the weekend I may like them more than ever, having discovered new virtues and unsuspected charms. Nevertheless, I am delighted to see them go. They leave more room in which to live properly.

Few of them held jobs outside the home, and those who did filled thankless roles as clerks and waitresses. I did not see, then, what a prison a house could be, since houses seemed to me brighter, handsomer places than any factory. I did not realize---because such things were never spoken of---how often women suffered from men's bullying. I did learn about the wretchedness of abandoned wives, single mothers, widows; but I also learned about the wretchedness of lone men. Even then I could see how exhausting it was for a mother to cater all day to the needs of young children. But if I had been asked, as a boy, to choose between tending a baby and tending a machine, I think I would have chosen the baby. (Having now tended both, I know I would choose the baby.) 我命中注定不是女人，因而更容易发现女人悠闲的一面。她们很少有人外出做工，即使有去做 工的，也是做些诸如文书和女招待之类的出力不讨好的差事。那时候，我还意识不到家会多像 一座监狱，因为在我看来，家比哪座工厂都要亮堂美观。我没有认识到--因•为人们从不谈论这 类事情——女人经常遭受男人的欺凌。我倒了解被遗弃的妻子、单身母亲和寡妇们多么可怜， 可我还知道孤身男人也很可怜。即使在那时，我已懂得做母亲的整天照料孩子有多么艰辛。不 过，我身为一个男孩，假若有人间我愿意看孩子还是愿意看机器，我想我是会选择看孩子的。 (如今我两样事都做过了，我知道我会选择看孩子。) 上帝没有把我造成女的，这使我更容易看到她们优雅的一面。 她们中很少有人在外面工作， 即使有也是薪酬卑微的职工服务员之类的工作。 那时我并没有察觉家竟然也可以是监狱。因 为家对我来说比任何工厂都要明亮，气派得多的地方。我没有意识到-因为没有人说女人是如 何受男人欺负的。我确实知道受遗弃的妻子、单亲妈妈和寡妇的不幸，同时我也知道鳏夫的不 幸。即使当时我也知道一个母亲要整日照顾孩子的艰辛。但是如果有人问我，在照顾小孩和看 管机器之间选择一个，我想我会选择看管小孩(虽然这两件事我都没做过，但是我知道我会选 择小孩。) 13 “What flowers are to gardens, spices to food, gems to garment and stars to heaven, such are proverbs interwoven in speech.
