1、Unit 6 Give Me Liberty, or Give Me Death課文 I翻譯1.議長先生：我比任何人更欽佩剛剛在議會(huì)上發(fā)言的先生們的愛國主義精神和才干。但是，對(duì)同樣的問題，智者見智，仁者見仁。因此，盡管我的觀點(diǎn)與他們大相徑庭，但是我仍要把自己的心里話一吐為快，并希望不要因此而被看做是對(duì)他們大不敬：現(xiàn)在不是講客套的時(shí)候。擺在議會(huì)面前的問題關(guān)系到國家的存亡。我認(rèn)為，這是關(guān)系到享受自由還是蒙受奴役的關(guān)鍵問題， 而且正因?yàn)槭玛P(guān)重大，我們的辯論就要做到各抒己見。只有這樣，我們才能弄清事實(shí)的真相，才能不辜負(fù)上帝和祖國賦予我們的責(zé)任。在這種時(shí)刻，如果怕得罪人而閉口不言，我認(rèn)為就是叛國，就是比

2、對(duì)世上所有國君更為神圣的上帝的不忠行為。2. 議長先生， 對(duì)希望抱有幻覺是人的天性。我們往往緊閉雙眼不去正視痛苦的現(xiàn)實(shí)，而是傾聽海妖蠱惑人心的歌聲， 讓她把我們變成禽獸。 在為自由而進(jìn)行艱苦卓絕的斗爭中，這難道是聰明人的所作所為嗎？難道我們?cè)敢鉃閷?duì)獲得拯救如此至關(guān)重要的事情視而不見，聽而不聞嗎？就我來說， 無論精神上有多么痛苦，我仍愿意獲悉全部的真相和最壞的事態(tài)，并為之做好充分準(zhǔn)備。3. 我只有一盞指路明燈， 那就是經(jīng)驗(yàn)之燈。 除了過去的經(jīng)驗(yàn)， 我沒有其他的方法去判斷未來。依據(jù)過去的經(jīng)驗(yàn)，我倒希望知道，十年來英國政府的所作所為，憑什么使得各位先生有理由滿懷希望， 并欣然用來安慰自己和議會(huì)呢？難

3、道就是最近接受我們請(qǐng)?jiān)笗r(shí)的那種狡詐的微笑嗎？不要相信這種微笑， 閣下，事實(shí)證明那是放置在您腳下的陷阱。 不要被人家的親吻把自己出賣了 ! 請(qǐng)你們捫心自問，接受我們請(qǐng)?jiān)笗r(shí)的和藹親善與遍布海陸疆域的大規(guī)模備戰(zhàn)怎么會(huì)相稱呢？難道出于對(duì)我們的愛護(hù)和和解， 就有必要?jiǎng)佑脩?zhàn)艦和軍隊(duì)嗎？難道我們流露過絕不和解的愿望， 因此結(jié)果為了重新贏得我們的愛， 而必須訴諸武力嗎？我們不要再欺騙自己了，閣下，這些都是戰(zhàn)爭和征服的工具，是國王們采取的最后的辯解手段。4. 我要請(qǐng)問先生們，閣下，這些戰(zhàn)爭的部署如果不是為了迫使我們俯首稱臣，那又意味著什么？先生們能夠指出還有其他的動(dòng)機(jī)嗎？難道在世界的這個(gè)地方， 還有什么敵人值得

4、大不列顛如此興師動(dòng)眾， 調(diào)集如此龐大的海陸軍隊(duì)嗎？沒有了，閣下， 什么敵人也沒有。他們完全是針對(duì)我們的， 而不是別人。他們是派來給我們緊緊套上英國政府長期以來鑄造的鎖鏈的。5. 我們用什么來抵抗呢？還要辯論嗎？閣下， 我們已經(jīng)辯論了十年。 難道對(duì)這個(gè)問題我們還有什么新鮮觀點(diǎn)嗎？什么也沒有。 我們已經(jīng)把各個(gè)方面全考慮過了， 但是一切都徒勞枉然。難道我們只得苦苦哀告，微言乞求嗎？難道我們還能期望找到什么沒有窮盡的說法嗎？閣下，我懇求您，我們千萬不要再自欺欺人了。6. 閣下，為了躲避這場即將降臨的風(fēng)暴，一切該做的事情我們都已經(jīng)做了。我們請(qǐng)?jiān)高^，我們抗議過，我們哀求過：我們?cè)莸乖谟埃瑧┣笾浦箛?/p>

5、會(huì)和內(nèi)閣的殘暴行徑。 我們的請(qǐng)?jiān)冈獾矫镆暎?我們的抗議招致格外的鎮(zhèn)壓和侮辱， 我們的哀求被置之不理， 我們被不以為然地從御座前一腳踢開了。 全都枉然， 事已至此， 我們還能沉湎于愚蠢的希望之中嗎？我們什么希望都沒有余地了。 假如我們希望獲得自由， 并維護(hù)我們長期以來為之獻(xiàn)身的崇高權(quán)力，假如我們不愿意卑鄙地放棄我們多年來的斗爭，不獲全勝，絕不收兵，那么，我們必須戰(zhàn)斗！我再重復(fù)一遍， 我們必須戰(zhàn)斗！ 我們只有訴諸武力，只有求助于千軍萬馬之主的上帝。7. 閣下，他們說我們太弱小了無法抵擋這么強(qiáng)大的敵手。但是，我們什么時(shí)候才能更強(qiáng)大呢？是下周， 還是明年？難道要等我們被徹底解除武裝，家家戶戶都駐扎了英

6、國士兵的時(shí)候嗎？難道我們靠猶豫不決，無所作為來積聚力量嗎？難道我們高枕而臥，抱有虛無縹緲的希望， 等到敵人捆住了我們的手腳，就能找到有效抵抗敵人的良策嗎？閣下，只要我們恰如其分地利用好自然之神恩賜給我們的力量，我們并不弱小。 一旦 300 萬人民在自己的國土上武裝起來為了自由的神圣事業(yè)而戰(zhàn)，那么敵人派遣來的任何武裝力量都無法戰(zhàn)勝我們。此外，我們并非孤軍作戰(zhàn)， 公正的上帝主宰著各國的命運(yùn)， 他將號(hào)召朋友們?yōu)槲覀兌鴳?zhàn)。閣下，戰(zhàn)爭的勝利并非只屬于強(qiáng)者，它將屬于那些機(jī)警、 主動(dòng)和勇敢的人們。 何況我們已經(jīng)別無選擇。即使我們沒有骨氣，想退出戰(zhàn)斗，也為時(shí)已晚。退路已被切斷，除非甘愿蒙受屈辱和奴役。囚禁我們

7、的鎖鏈已經(jīng)鑄成，叮叮當(dāng)當(dāng)?shù)溺備D聲已經(jīng)在波士頓平原上回蕩，戰(zhàn)爭已經(jīng)無可避免讓它來吧 !我重復(fù)一遍，閣下，讓它來吧！8. 企圖使事態(tài)得到緩和是徒勞的，閣下。各位先生可以高喊， “和平，和平”但是根本沒有和平。 戰(zhàn)爭實(shí)際上已開始了！ 從北方刮來的風(fēng)暴將把武器的鏗鏘的撞擊聲傳到我們的耳中。我們的兄弟們已經(jīng)上了戰(zhàn)場！ 我們?yōu)槭裁催€要站在這兒袖手旁觀？先生們希望的是什么？他們會(huì)得到什么？難道生命就這么可貴，和平就這么甜美，竟值得以鎖鏈和奴役做代價(jià)？全能的上帝啊，制止他們這樣做吧！我不知道別人會(huì)如何行事：至于我，不自由，毋寧死！Language WorkI.
