一周以后,第二年年轻人也回来了,他神情疲倦,满脸风霜:“酋长,我到达山顶了。我看到高大肃穆的松树林,我看到秃鹰盘旋,那是一个好地方。”“可惜啊!孩子,地不是山顶,那是山腰。不过,也难为你了,你回去吧!”
A week later, the second young man also returned. He looked terribly weary and his face was weather-beaten.“Lord, I’ve been to the mountaintop where I saw groves of tall, solemn pine trees and vultures circling in the air. That’s a real nice place.”“What a pity!” said the tribal chief. “Son, you’ve been halfway up the mountain rather than to its summit. But you had a real tough time. Now you can leave.”
要点:
1,“满面风霜”按“饱经风霜”常用于形容经历过种种的艰难困苦生活的磨练,译为weather-beaten(经历过各种天气)
2,“不过,也难为你了”即“你所经历的已经很难了”译为But you had a real tough time
