英語(yǔ)專(zhuān)八翻譯模擬練習(xí)題（12）

　　他們住進(jìn)了一家簡(jiǎn)陋的旅館。 旅館的餐廳是小城名流云聚之地。有市長(zhǎng)，律師，醫(yī)生，還有其他的一些人。在這些人之中，有一位英俊健談的高個(gè)老人引起了他們的注意。他有一雙烏黑的眼睛，頭發(fā)雪白，高大挺直的身板，像年輕人一樣。然而，餐廳的服務(wù)生卻有些自豪地告訴他們，這位伯爵年事已高，來(lái)年就有八十高齡了。服務(wù)生還說(shuō)，他是他們家族最后一員，也曾是豪門(mén)巨富，然而他卻沒(méi)有子嗣。這位服務(wù)生還得意地提到，他愛(ài)情失意，終身未娶，好像這是一件本地值得炫耀的事情。

　　參考譯文

　　The Cafe of the simple inn where they stayed was the meeting place of the notabilities of the little city; the Sindaco, the avvocato, the doctor, and a few others; and among them they noticed a beautiful, slim, talkative old man, with bright black eyes and snow-white hair — tall and straight and still with the figure of a youth, although the waiter told them with pride that the Conte was molto vecchio — would in fact be eightey in the following year. He was the last of his family, the waiter added — they had once been great and rich people — but he had no descendants; in fact the waiter mentioned with complacency, as if it were a story on which the locality prided itself, that the Conte had been unfortunate in love, and had never married.

　　Sindaco：意語(yǔ)，市長(zhǎng)
