外國名著經典英語段落1

A Tale of Two Cities——《雙城記》

They said of him that it was the most peaceful face ever seen there. What passed through Sydney Carton&39;s mind as he walked those last steps to his death? Perhaps he saw into the future...

&39;I see Barsad, Defarge, the judges, all dying under this terrible machine. I see a beautiful city being built in this terrible place. I see that new people will live here, in real freedom. I see the lives for whom I give my life, happy and peaceful in that England which I shall never see again. I see Lucie when she is old, crying for me on this day every year, and I know that she and her husband remember me until their deaths. I see their son, who has my name, now a man. I see him become a famous lawyer and make my name famous by his work. I hear him tell his son my story.

It is a far, far better thing that I do, than I have ever done; it is a far far better rest than I go to, than I have ever known.&39;

人們談論他說他的臉是在那種地方見過的最平靜的臉。當西德尼·卡登邁著最后的步伐向死亡走去時，他的腦海中想到了什么呢?也許他看到了未來……

“我看到巴薩德、德法熱、法官們都在這個可怕的機器下面死去。我看見一個美麗的城市正在這片可怕的土地上建立起來。我看到新一代的人民將在真正的自由中生活。我看到我為之付出生命的人們，他們幸福安寧的生活在我再也見不到的英國。我看見路西年老的時候，每一年的這一天都會為我哭泣，我知道她和她的丈夫會一直到死都記著我。我看見他們的兒子，有著和我一樣的名字，現在長成了一個男人。我看見他成了一位著名的律師并通過他的工作而使我揚名四方。我聽見他給他的兒子講起我的故事。

我做的是一件很好的事。它遠遠好過我所做的所有的事。它將是一個很好的長眠，遠比我所知道的要好。”

外國名著經典英語段落2

Hamlet’ Monologue ——<<哈姆雷特的獨白>>

To be, or not to be- that is the question:

Whether &39;tis nobler in the mind to suffer

The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune

Or to take arms against a sea of troubles,

And by opposing end them. To die- to sleep-

No more; and by a sleep to say we end

The heartache, and the thousand natural shocks

That flesh is heir to. &39;Tis a consummation

Devoutly to be wish&39;d. To die- to sleep.

To sleep- perchance to dream: ay, there&39;s the rub!

For in that sleep of death what dreams may come

When we have shuffled off this mortal coil,

Must give us pause. There&39;s the respect

That makes calamity of so long life.

For who would bear the whips and scorns of time,

Th&39; oppressor&39;s wrong, the proud man&39;s contumely,

The pangs of despis&39;d love, the law&39;s delay,

The insolence of office, and the spurns

That patient merit of th&39; unworthy takes,

When he himself might his quietus make

With a bare bodkin? Who would these fardels bear,

To grunt and sweat under a weary life,

But that the dread of something after death-

The undiscover&39;d country, from whose bourn

No traveller returns- puzzles the will,

And makes us rather bear those ills we have

Than fly to others that we know not of?

Thus conscience does make cowards of us all,

And thus the native hue of resolution

Is sicklied o&39;er with the pale cast of thought,

And enterprises of great pith and moment

With this regard their currents turn awry

And lose the name of action.

生存還是毀滅?這是個問題。

究竟哪樣更高貴，去忍受那狂暴的命運無情的摧殘 還是挺身去反抗那無邊的煩惱，把它掃一個干凈。

去死，去睡就結束了，如果睡眠能結束我們心靈的創傷和肉體所承受的千百種痛苦，那真是生存求之不得的天大的好事。去死，去睡，

去睡，也許會做夢!

唉，這就麻煩了，即使擺脫了這塵世 可在這死的睡眠里又會做些什么夢呢?真得想一想，就這點顧慮使人受著終身的折磨，

誰甘心忍受那鞭打和嘲弄，受人壓迫，受盡侮蔑和輕視，忍受那失戀的痛苦，法庭的拖延，衙門的橫征暴斂，默默無聞的勞碌卻只換來多少凌辱。但他自己只要用把尖刀就能解脫了。

誰也不甘心，呻吟、流汗拖著這殘生，可是對死后又感覺到恐懼，又從來沒有任何人從死亡的國土里回來，因此動搖了，寧愿忍受著目前的苦難 而不愿投奔向另一種苦難。

顧慮就使我們都變成了懦夫，使得那果斷的本色蒙上了一層思慮的慘白的容顏，本來可以做出偉大的事業，由于思慮就化為烏有了，喪失了行動的能力。
