双城记开头翻译对于(1 页)Good is good, but better carries it.精益求精，善益求善。It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair, we had everything before us, we had nothing before us, we were all going direct to Heaven, we were all going direct the other way--in short, the period was so far like the present period, that some of its noisiest authorities insisted on its being received, for good or for evil, in the superlative degree of comparison only. —— A Tale of Two Cities Charles Dickens中国对外翻译（宋兆霖 译文） 那是最美好的时代，那是最糟糕的时代；那是个睿智的年月，那是个蒙昧的年月；那是信心百倍的时期，那是疑虑重重的时期；那是阳光普照的季节，那是黑暗笼罩的季节；那是充满希望的春天，那是让人无望的冬天；我们面前无所不有，我们面前一无所有；我们大家都在直升天堂，我们大家都在直下地狱——简而言之，那个时代和当今这个时代是如此相似，因而一些吵嚷不休的权威们也坚持认为，不管它是好是坏，都只能用“ 最……”来评价它。译林（孙法理 译文） 那是最美好的时代，那是最糟糕的时代；那是智慧的年头，那是愚昧的年头；那是信仰的时期，那是怀疑的时期；那是光明的季节，那是黑暗的季节；那是希望的春天，那是失望的冬天；我们拥有一切，我们一无所有；我们全都在直奔天堂，我们全都在直奔相反的方向一一简而言之，那时跟现在非常相像，某些最喧嚣的权威坚持要用形容词的最高级来形容它。说它好，是最高级的；说它不好，也是最高级的。人民文学（石永礼、赵文娟 译文） 那是最好的年月，那是最坏的年月，那是智慧的时代，那是愚蠢的时代，那是信仰的新纪元，那是怀疑的新纪元，那是光明的季节，那是黑暗的季节，那是希望的春天，那是无望的冬天，我们将拥有一切，我们将一无所有，我们直接上天堂，我们直接下地狱——简言之，那个时代跟现代十分相似，甚至当年有些大发议论...
