佛罗里达州一名9岁的小男孩,在湖中游泳时,遭到一条长9英尺(约2.7米长、重400磅(约180多公斤的短吻鳄袭击,赤手与其搏斗之后,小男孩身上多处受伤,目前正在医院治疗中。医生从他背部的伤口里取出一颗短吻鳄的牙齿,小男孩表示想把它做成项链。
James Barney Jr, spoke calmly and eloquently about his ordeal from hospital, where he was tucked up in bed with a teddy bear by his side. He was covered in some 30 teeth marks, doctors said.
小男孩名叫小詹姆斯·巴尼,他在医院里平静、生动地讲述了自己与短吻鳄搏斗的经历,在他床边还放有一只泰迪熊。医生说,小詹姆斯全身有30多处牙印。
The little boy described how it was a hot day so he had parked his bike and jumped into Lake Tohopekaliga - a lake that people are forbidden to swim in - when he felt something brush against his leg.
小詹姆斯说那天特别热,于是他就把自行车停在一旁自己跳进了托霍普卡莱加湖,这个湖是禁止人们在里面游泳的,刚一进去他就感觉有东西擦到他的腿了。
'It really amazed me what happened. At first, I thought someone was just playing with me, and I didn't know what happened,' he told ABC.
“后来发生的事情真的让我大吃一惊。但开始的`时候,我以为是有人在跟我闹着玩,我并不知道发生了什么事情。”他告诉广播公司(ABC的记者。
'I reached down to grab it, and I felt its jaw, I felt its teeth, and I didn't know what to do, so I immediately reacted and hit it a couple times. And I had enough strength to pry its jaw open.' The child pulled the powerful jaws open long enough to slide out and swim to shore.
“我潜入水中抓住了它,摸到了它的下巴,摸到了它的牙齿,可不知道该怎么做,不过我立刻就反应过来了赶紧猛打了它几下,并使劲撑开了它的嘴巴。”小詹姆斯把它的嘴巴撑得足够大后赶紧退后并向岸边游去。
Witnesses say the boy surfaced, screaming that he'd been bitten by an alligator. They immediately called 911.
目击者称小男孩浮出水面后尖叫着说自己被一只短吻鳄咬到了。于是他们立刻拨打911报警。
看完后,跑去网上搜了一下网友的,好多人都写的是这篇文章反应了对原住民的命运。我自己倒是觉得,更像是讲述这个故事的人对女主角的一生坎坷的命运的惋惜。
就像当初一个班上,总有一个很微不足道的,家里条件也不好,看起来也很不招人喜欢的人。也没有人愿意对她给与更多的'善意。到后来,隔了很多年后,从别人的嘴里,听到这个人的故事。
没有太多人会真的怜惜那个人的命运,无论有多悲惨也好,多可怜也好。对旁人来说,无关紧要。大概就会觉得很悲凉吧。
说起来,高级英语里面选的文章,蛮多都还蛮治郁的。
