双语阅读之读书生涯
【英语原文】
He also flowered intellectually during his last two years in high school and found himself at the intersection, as he had began to see it, of those who were geekily immersed in electronics and those who were into literature and creative endeavors. “I started to listen to music a whole lot, and I started to read more outside of just science and technology—Shakespeare, Plato. I loved King Lear.” His other favorites included Moby-Dick and the poem of Dylan Thomas. I asked him why he related to King Lear and Captain Ahab, two of the most willful and driven characters in literature, but he didn’t respond to the connection I was making, so I let it drop. “When I was a senior I had this phenomenal AP English class. The teacher was this guy who looked like Ernest Hemingway. He took a bunch of us snowshoeing in Yosemite.” (Chapter 1 Childhood: School)
【译文】
高中生涯的最后两年里，乔布斯的心智也迅速发展成熟。他开始发现自己是两类人的交集：他既沉浸在电子学的浩瀚海洋里，又爱上了文学和各种创造性努力。“我开始听很多音乐， 我也开始读很多科学领域外的书籍，像莎士比亚和柏拉图。我很喜欢《李尔王》这本书。” 他的心头爱还包括美国小说《白鲸》和英国诗人狄兰·托马斯的作品。我曾经问过他，为什么会喜欢李尔王和亚哈船长这两个角色，他们是文学史上最任性、最执着的.经典角色。不过他没有理会我的这种联想，我也自此揭过不提。“读高中四年级的时候，我上了一门大学英语预修课程，这门课太棒了。教我们的老师长得很像美国作家海明威。他还带我们一帮学生去优山美地国家公园玩雪。”
