家庭、朋友和周围的人

本文主要讲述了作者在车上听到后面的女子打电话的内容,认为母亲颇为不易,于是将夹在书中当做书签的钱给了女子,让其买一份礼物给母亲,希望能让她的母亲开怀一笑的故事。
I was heading to my writing group with a book to read on the journey. Because it was an old book I didn’t want to “dog-ear” the pages, I searched in my pockets for something to use as a bookmark. I placed a ten pound note between the pages.
我带着一本书出门准备前往我的写作小组。因为这是一本旧书,我不想折角,所以我摸了摸口袋想要找些可以用作书签的东西。我在这两页之间放了一张十英磅的纸钞。
Sitting on the bus I took the book out and was about to read but a young woman behind me who was speaking on her cellphone drew my attention. She was talking to her brother. She wanted to know where he was, why he wasn’t where he was supposed to be, why he had lied to their mother again and whether he knew that their mum had broken down in tears that morning because of him.
坐在公共汽车上,我把书拿出来,正准备阅读,但一位身后用打电话的年轻女子引起了我的注意。她正在和她的弟弟说话。她想知道他在哪里,为什么他不在他应该在的地方,为什么他再次向他们的母亲撒谎,并且他是否知道他们的母亲因为他在今天早上泪流满面了。
She kept it quiet but she didn’t pull any punches with him. She let him know exactly what she thought of him but I could tell there was love under all the disappointment. She tried so hard to get this young man to come to see his mother, but I got the impression she was fighting a losing battle.
说话的时候她一直轻言细语的,但并没有疾言厉色地训斥弟弟。她让他确切地知道她对他的看法,尽管失望,但我能感受到他们之间的爱。她努力地劝服弟弟去见他的母亲,但我的印象是她可能会输。
When she left the bus, I got off behind her and drew out the note in the book. “Excuse me,” I said. “Do me a favor, would you? Take this money and buy your mum a box of chocolates or a bunch of flowers. And tell her a strange man said that being a mother is the hardest but most important job in the world.”
她下车时,我跟在她身后,并取出了书中的钱。 我说:“对不起,帮我一个忙,好吗?拿这些钱,给你的妈妈买一盒巧克力或一束鲜花。并告诉她一个陌生的男人说,做母亲是世界上最难但最重要的工作。”
