昨日流量收入1.24元，盡管流量收入依然是牛身上的一根毫毛也算不上，但依然擋不住我閱讀傲慢與偏見英文原版的熱情。

因?yàn)槲以陂喿x傲慢與偏見英文原版的過(guò)程中挖掘出兩個(gè)金句：

1. “Between him and Darcy there was a very steady friendship, in spite of a great opposition of character.”

性格截然相反，卻成生死之交。
2. “Bingley was sure of being liked wherever he appeared, Darcy was continually giving offence.”
賓利走哪都圈粉，達(dá)西走哪都踩雷。

這么漂亮的金句是哪里找到的，這是我第73天閱讀傲慢與偏見英文原版的時(shí)候讀到的，我視之若寶讀了又讀。

上篇筆記講到賓利為什么租住內(nèi)瑟菲爾德莊園，賓利的姐妹住在莊園打理平常的生活。

小說(shuō)接著會(huì)怎么敘述呢？既然描述了賓利的姐妹，按照遠(yuǎn)近親疏，賓利的朋友是不是該有所交代，露個(gè)臉，第一次的鄉(xiāng)村舞會(huì)上，賓利的同行者就是自己的姐妹、姐夫、好友達(dá)西。
Between him and Darcy there was a very steady friendship, in spite of a great opposition of character. — Bingley was endeared to Darcy by the easiness, openness, ductility of his temper, though no disposition could offer a greater contrast to his own, and though with his own he never appeared dissatisfied. On the strength of Darcy’s regard Bingley had the firmest reliance, and of his judgment the highest opinion. In understanding Darcy was the superior. Bingley was by no means deficient, but Darcy was clever. He was at the same time haughty, reserved, and fastidious, and his manners, though well bred, were not inviting. In that respect his friend had greatly the advantage. Bingley was sure of being liked wherever he appeared, Darcy was continually giving offence.

賓利和達(dá)西之間有著穩(wěn)固的友誼，盡管在性格方面有著很大的對(duì)立。達(dá)西對(duì)賓利很喜愛，因?yàn)橘e利脾氣溫和、坦率、寬厚，雖然沒有性情呈現(xiàn)出與達(dá)西自己的巨大差異，但是達(dá)西沒有對(duì)自己的性格不滿。憑借達(dá)西的看重，賓利有著堅(jiān)定的信賴，對(duì)達(dá)西的判斷力，賓利很推崇。在理解力上達(dá)西更高一籌。賓利不是才智平庸之人，達(dá)西確實(shí)聰明。同時(shí)，達(dá)西高傲、冷漠、挑剔，即使舉止得體，也覺得難以接近。在這方面，他的朋友賓利有優(yōu)勢(shì)。賓利無(wú)論出現(xiàn)在哪里，都受歡迎，達(dá)西不斷地招人煩。

對(duì)這段英語(yǔ)文字，我總算連蒙帶猜，瞅幾眼工具，磕磕絆絆地轉(zhuǎn)化為中文，但是只是在意思上過(guò)得去，對(duì)于是否精準(zhǔn)精致則是顧不上的，這第一遍讀英文版的小說(shuō)，能把意思幫七幫八的跟頭不浪地往前走，就是很好了。

這段文字可以簡(jiǎn)練的概括：有人出場(chǎng)自帶聚光燈，有人出場(chǎng)自帶冷氣機(jī)。

二

這段英語(yǔ)文字里的詞匯看著不難，實(shí)際上每句閱讀的時(shí)候，還是感覺詞匯的絆腳石挺多的，我把有的詞匯給出簡(jiǎn)潔注釋，以資學(xué)習(xí)。

有的單詞是有點(diǎn)陌生的，我就自己找張練習(xí)紙寫幾遍，有的我會(huì)查閱詞典瀏覽或記上個(gè)句子。

三

我逐句拆解閱讀一遍：

1. “Between him and Darcy there was a very steady friendship, in spite of a great opposition of character.”

盡管達(dá)西和賓利的性格大相徑庭，但是二人有著非常穩(wěn)固的友誼。
very steady friendship：“非常穩(wěn)固的友誼”。

great opposition of character：“性格截然相反”。

in spite of，這是個(gè)固定短語(yǔ)，“不管，雖然，盡管“，spite單列也是這個(gè)意思。

2. “— Bingley was endeared to Darcy by the easiness, openness, ductility of his temper, though no disposition could offer a greater contrast to his own, and though with his own he never appeared dissatisfied.”

賓利以其溫和、坦率、隨和的性格獲得達(dá)西的喜愛，盡管性格差異極大，達(dá)西自己從來(lái)沒有對(duì)自己不滿。
endeared to：“使……喜愛”。

easiness, openness, ductility：“溫和、坦率、隨和”

no disposition could offer a greater contrast：“性格反差再大不過(guò)”

“disposition” ，性格、性情、氣質(zhì)，和 “temper”（脾氣）、“personality”（個(gè)性）意思相近

“dissatisfied” ，“不滿意的、不滿足的”

3. “On the strength of Darcy’s regard Bingley had the firmest reliance, and of his judgment the highest opinion.”

憑借達(dá)西對(duì)賓利堅(jiān)定的信賴，極高推崇的判斷。
on the strength of：“憑借；依靠”

firmest reliance：“最堅(jiān)定的信賴”

highest opinion：“最高的推崇”

4. “In understanding Darcy was the superior. Bingley was by no means deficient, but Darcy was clever.”

在才智上達(dá)西是突出的。賓利也不是愚笨之人，但達(dá)西更聰慧一些。
understanding：“理解力；才智”

by no means deficient：“絕非愚笨”

clever：“聰慧的”。
5. “He was at the same time haughty, reserved, and fastidious, and his manners, though well bred, were not inviting.”

達(dá)西同時(shí)傲慢、內(nèi)斂、挑剔，盡管舉止得體，卻并不讓人喜歡。
haughty, reserved, fastidious：“傲慢、內(nèi)斂、挑剔”

well bred：“舉止得體”

not inviting：不招人喜歡

6. “In that respect his friend had greatly the advantage. Bingley was sure of being liked wherever he appeared, Darcy was continually giving offence.”

在這點(diǎn)上，賓利就很有優(yōu)勢(shì)。賓利出現(xiàn)在任何地方都討喜，達(dá)西總是得罪人。
in that respect：“在那一點(diǎn)上”

sure of being liked：“肯定會(huì)受人喜歡”

continually giving offence：“總得罪人”

這段文字描述了賓利和達(dá)西性格對(duì)立卻是好朋友，這個(gè)小說(shuō)越讀越有趣味了，跟著我的閱讀筆記，慢慢地汩涌著讀，讀英文小說(shuō)，又是文學(xué)名著，讀的慢讀的細(xì)才匹配經(jīng)典著作的身份。

發(fā)布傲慢與偏見英文原版精讀的隨筆已是73天，但流量依然是低低低，我得略微的改進(jìn)，不然我這研究生學(xué)歷學(xué)位是白讀了，不掙錢學(xué)歷學(xué)位就是沒功效的。

一個(gè)改進(jìn)點(diǎn)就是在標(biāo)題上用傲慢與偏見、英文原版、精讀、達(dá)西，這幾個(gè)詞，盡量吻合微信指數(shù)，把73天后挪。

二是英文字?jǐn)?shù)不能超過(guò)60%，因?yàn)橛⑽谋壤罅司拖蘖?，這樣，我適度的增加中文字?jǐn)?shù)，或者是英文句子之后充實(shí)中文句子。

摸石頭過(guò)河是對(duì)的，但是摸了73天，每篇收益還是幾毛錢或1塊錢2塊錢，那就是自己的賺錢思維和實(shí)干路子是不對(duì)的，老牛蒙著眼拉車，不僅是愚，而且是蠢了。

傲慢與偏見英文原版精讀，這個(gè)路子是堅(jiān)定不移的，即使每篇1毛錢也不換內(nèi)容，換的是思想，要把收益目標(biāo)當(dāng)成主目標(biāo)，金錢掛帥要當(dāng)成創(chuàng)作的指導(dǎo)思想，向錢看，這是檢驗(yàn)自己水平的唯一標(biāo)準(zhǔn)。

我剛才對(duì)閱讀筆記看了又看，確實(shí)味同嚼蠟，平臺(tái)不給流量，讀者數(shù)量少之又少，實(shí)際上是我自己水平不夠，因此臨時(shí)挖掘了兩個(gè)金句在文本前部打了補(bǔ)丁。

這段文字僅有120來(lái)個(gè)英文單詞，但是相當(dāng)于是“社交牛 vs 社交恐”權(quán)威說(shuō)明書，里面的句子骨架和詞串，都是好東西，反復(fù)誦讀且背之用之，對(duì)雅思作文、考研翻譯、自媒體金句都是寶貝。
