歐亨利《禮物》

A story is told about,a young married couple whose names are Jim and Dclla. They are poor but very much in love with each other.

有一對夫妻,丈夫叫吉姆,妻子叫黛拉他們生活窘迫,但是彼此深深相愛。

As Christmas approaches, Della wonder what to get Jim for C'hristmas. She would like to give him a watch chain fur his gold watch. but ;he doean't have a enough money. Then she gets an idea.She has beautiful long hair. So Della decide, to cut off her hair and sell it buy the fancy chain for Jim's watch.

聖誕節前,黛拉考慮著該給吉姆買什麼樣的聖誕禮物她想給他的金表配一根表鏈,可錢不夠。後來她想到了一個主意。她長有一頭漂亮的長髮,因此她決定將長發剪短換錢,這樣就可以給吉姆買一根漂亮的表鏈了。

On Christmas Eve she return s home, and in her hand is beautiful bos containing a gold watch chain which she purchased bys elling her hair. Suddenly Della begins to worry. She knows Jim admired her long hair, and she wonders if he will be disappointed that she cut it ott and sold it.

平安夜,拿著一個裝有金表表鏈的禮盒,黛拉向家中走去沒錯,表鏈正是她用賣掉自己的頭髮的錢買來的。黛拉有些擔心,她知道古姆非常喜歡她長長的秀髮,而待會看到她的頭髮被剪短,他會很失望嗎?

Della climbs the final flight of stairs leading to their tiny apartment. She unlocks the door and is surprised to find Jim home and waiting for her. In his hand is a neatly wrapped box containing the gift he purchased for her.

黛拉在不安中走完了通向他們那面積不大的公寓的最後一級樓梯。打開門,她驚訝的發現吉姆正在家中等她回家。他手裡拿著一個包裝精美的盒子,裡面裝著的當然是給她的禮物。

When Della removes her scarf, Jim sees Della's short hair, and tears well up in his eyes. But she says nothing. He chokes back the tears and gives Della the gift box.

到家後黛拉解開頭巾,看到黛拉剪短的頭髮,吉姆眼中泛淚,而她什麼也沒說。控制住眼淚.吉姆將手中的禮盒遞給黛拉。

When Della opens it, she can't believe her eyes. There in the box is a set of beautiful silver combs for her long hair.

打開禮盒,黛拉不敢相信自己的眼睛,禮盒裡裝有一套漂亮的銀質梳具,一套為她曾經的秀髮準備的梳具。

And when Jim opens his gift, he, too, is astonished. There inside the box is a beautiful gold chain for his gold pocket watch. Only then does Della realize that Jim pawned his gold watch to buy her the silver hair combs.

打開禮盒後,吉姆同樣驚呆了,禮盒裡正是黛拉給他買的漂亮的金表表鏈。黛拉那時才知道,為了給她買這套銀質梳具,吉姆已經將金表抵押給了當鋪。

Far more beautiful than the gifts is the love they symbolize.

比禮物更美的,是禮物所表現出的對彼此的愛。
