9.7 早读1914Days原文:
Green, green the reed,
Dew and frost gleam.
Where‘s she I need?
Beyond the stream.
绿绿丛丛的芦苇中，
那露水和霜在闪烁。
我想找的她在哪儿?
在远处的溪流边上。
我在最美的诗词里，
遇见了最美好的她。
蒹葭苍苍白露为霜。
所谓伊人在水一方。
——许渊冲英译版《诗经》之《秦风·蒹葭》
1. 沿河岸长着一丛丛芦苇。Reeds grew in clumps all along the river bank.
2. 草上和树上结了一层白霜。The grass and trees were white with frost.
3.（微弱的）一线希望 a (faint) gleam of hope
Although there is only a gleam of hope,we shouldn’t give up.
