||1:After the death of Benny Pomeranski in 2000 his son Simon—who has swapped the retail hustles of his parents’ generation for the more genteel profession of drama lecturer— learns about the misadventures that shaped his father’s life.||2:Benny, along with his pals, migrated south from the warbattered streets of the East End (a more familiar stamping-ground for earlier Jewish novelists of London).||3:In Brixton, Benny and his wife Bertha make a decent living from their dress shop, Pomeranski Gowns, but his heart lies with a group of friends who meet in the Astoria café.

||1:本尼·波梅兰斯基2000年去世后，他的儿子西蒙——从父母那一代的闲散生活转变成了一个更为优雅的戏剧演讲者职业——了解了那些他父亲生活的种种不幸。||2:本尼和他的朋友们，从伦敦东区饱受战火蹂躏的街道向南迁移（伦敦早期犹太小说家更熟悉的地方）。||3:在布里克斯顿，本尼和他的妻子伯莎靠他们的服装店波美兰斯基礼服过着体面的生活，但他的心却寄托在一群在阿斯托利亚咖啡馆见过的朋友身上。

||1: Today the term “gentry” in Britain evokes “the introductory chat at an upper-middle-class dinner party—how did you get here, who do you know, how is Aletheia?” ||2: It suggests a cosy, genteel , exclusive and somewhat smug world in which background and family are deemed more important than individual qualities. ||3: It is also often preceded by the word “landed”. ||4: The launch of “Burke’s Landed Gentry”, an encyclopedic tome first published in 1826, is partly responsible for this (though the ownership of land ceased to be a requirement for a family to appear in the book as long ago as the 1920s). ||5: But the principal reason is that the story of the gentry is all “about Land”.

||1:如今在英国“乡绅”这个词让人想到的就是“在一个上流社会的晚宴上开始闲聊的前奏——你怎么过来的啊？你认识谁呢？阿莱西娅最近可好呀？”||2:这表明在这个亲切、高雅、排外，甚至几分自鸣得意的阶层里，一个人的背景和出身比他的品性更为重要。||3:“乡绅”的前面也经常会加上“有土地的”这个词。||4: 这个词(即 landed gentry)的普及有一部份原因归功于1826年初版的百科全书式大本书《伯克乡绅名录》。（尽管早在上世纪二十年代，拥有土地便不再是一个家庭载入史册的必要条件）。 ||5:但其主要原因在于所有关于乡绅的故事都和“土地”密不可分。

||1:Bungling officials confront an invisible threat in a blockbuster about a fish.||2:“A film about a shark” was Steven Spielberg’s description of “Jaws”, the movie released in 1975 that established his box-office power as a director.||3:More elaborate interpretations abound for his tale of a ravenous great white terrorising the genteel seaside town of Amity on Long Island.||4:Is it a comment on corruption after Watergate, a parable of the Vietnam war or an illustration of Freudian castration anxiety?||5:Fidel Castro, in an excursion into film criticism, reckoned it was a devastating Marxist critique of American capitalism.

||1:在一部关于鱼的大片中，拙劣的官员们面临着无形的威胁。||2:史蒂文·斯皮尔伯格将《大白鲨》描述为“一部关于鲨鱼的电影”，这部电影于1975年上映，奠定了他作为一名导演的票房号召力。||3:这部电影讲述了一只非比寻常的巨大白鲨威胁着一个叫艾米蒂长岛的幽静的滨海小镇的故事，人们对这个故事的解释众说纷纭。||4:它是在水门事件发生后针对腐败问题进行评论吗？它是表示对越南战争的隐喻吗？还是为了例证弗洛伊德阉割焦虑症？||5:菲德尔·卡斯特罗在一次尝试影评时，认为这部电影是一部宣扬马克思主义，批判美国资本主义的伟大作品。
