上期翻译答案

And by naming this bill as he has, he’s doing exactly (what the metaphorical Karen is doing) — creating an opportunity for discrimination.

他用这种方式命名法案,其所作所为与“卡伦”象征的群体正在做的并无二致——为歧视行为大开方便之门。

1.metaphorical 隐喻的;含比喻的

在这里可以理解为中文的双引号,即并非叫Karen的人,而是“Karen”所指代的群体

2.discrimination 区别对待;歧视;偏袒,the practice of treating sb or a particular group in society less fairly than others

《本期内容》

导读

故事背景出自中国古代的民歌《木兰辞》,由中国明星刘亦菲主演的电影《花木兰》(英文名Mulan)经历了多次改档之后,终于和观众们见面了,国外媒体是如何评价的呢?

双语阅读

Stories about girls bravely going in opposition to the cultural and social grain might be delectable catnip, and it’s no completely different right here. Mulan is an insistentlyengagingcharacter, regardless of how indifferently conceptualized orbluntlypoliticized. Her story has been traced again so far as the fourth to sixth centuries, although the primary written variations seem later.

女孩们勇敢地反抗文化和社会的故事可能是像猫薄荷一样令人愉悦的,在这里也是如此。木兰是一个坚毅而又引人入胜的角色,不管这个角色是如何被糟糕地概念化,或是被单刀直入地政治化。花木兰的故事一直追溯到公元4世纪到6世纪,尽管最初文字版变体似乎是在这之后。

The film takes on gender extra boldly than it handles warfare. Early on, earlier than Mulan leaves house, there’s a quick, energetic scene of her galloping on her horse alongside two hares, a picturepluckedfrom the unique ballad. The motif seems on the shut of the ballad when Mulan — after returning house andresumingher female id, her differentmasquerade— is visited by previous comrades.

这部电影对性别的描写比战争的描写更加大胆。在花木兰离开家之前,有一段快速而充满活力的画面:她骑着马在两只野兔旁边飞奔,这一画面取自那首独特的民谣(木兰辞)。电影的主题似乎在民谣的结尾,当花木兰回到家,恢复了她的女性身份、她掩饰的身份后,收到了以前战友的拜访。

Seeing her, they categorical shock that they didn’t know she was a lady. She responds to their shock with a query that ends her story on an expansive, philosophical notice: “But when a pair of hares run aspect by aspect/Who can distinguish whether or not I in reality am male or feminine?”

看到她,他们完全震惊了,因为他们之前不知道她是位女性。在她的故事的结尾,她提出了一个宏大的、富有哲理的问题对他们的震惊作出回应:“双兔傍地走,安能辨我是雌雄?”

Who certainly?! One of the teachings of Mulan’s story is that ladies and men aren’t merely equals, however are lastly indistinguishable when and the place it counts: on the transfer, on the run, within the warmth of the battle.

谁能说出肯定的答案?花木兰的故事告诉我们,女性和男性不仅仅是平等的,而且在关键的时刻和地点,在转移、行军、战斗的温暖中,他们最后是不分彼此的。

Caro makes the identical level in scenes that present Mulan rising to the event many times, whether or not she’s taking pictures an arrow,twirlinga weapon or executing some fancy using that’s so fluidly staged that it makes you lengthy for extra. If something, the film may use rather more of Mulanin motion, notably when shefaces offin opposition to an enigma, Xianniang (the good Gong Li).

翻译划线句,在文末留言框内打卡,答案下期公布~如果有什么不同的话,这部电影可能会有更多木兰打斗的动作,特别是当她面对谜一样的“仙娘”(巩俐饰演)的时候。
