当有人用枪来得到他们想要的东西的时候，你该如何阻止他们呢?如果他们要什么，你就给什么，他们定会心花怒放——而且，更会得寸进尺，变本加厉。如果你不交出他们想要的东西，那么，就可能会惹恼他们——他们可能会杀了你。很难说到底该怎么办才好。
When people use guns to take what they want, how do you stop them? If you give them what they want, they will be happy—and they will use their guns again, and again. If you don't give them what they want, then they will be angry—and they will kill. It is not easy to decide what to do.
在这个故事中，面对这个两难境地的是首相，一位政府首脑。但首相也是和我们一样的普通人——有家庭，有孩子。
In this story, the person who has to decide is the Prime Minister, the head of the government. But the Prime Minister is also an ordinary person, just like the rest of us—a person with a family and children.
如果有人拿枪对着你的家人，你怎样才能让头脑保持清醒呢?你该怎么做呢?你采纳别人的建议，跟劫机者展开对话，搞清楚他们到底想要什么，你尽力让大家保持冷静，你慢慢地采取行动。但是，恐怖分子可不愿意等你，迟早你得决定到底该怎么办……
How can you think clearly, if someone is pointing a gun at your family? What do you do? You take advice, you talk to the hijackers, you find out what they want, you keep everybody calm, you try to move slowly. But terrorists don't like waiting, and sooner or later, you have to decide what to do...

机舱内，卡尔和哈拉尔德都坐在靠近门口的地上。他们被哈拉尔德的手铐铐在了一起，那个女劫机犯拿着枪，站在那儿看着他们。小胡子在机长室，穿黑衬衫的年轻人看守着其他乘客。

In the plane, Carl and Harald sat on the floor by the door. They were handcuffed together with Harald’s handcuffs. The girl hijacker stood watching them with her gun. The bearded man was in the Captain’s cabin, and the young man in the black shirt was watching the other passengers.

She laughed. ’That is your wife’s problem, not mine,’ she said. ’If our brothers come, he will get a doctor. If they don’t come, he won’t need one.’ She pointed her gun at Harald’s head and laughed again. She wasn’t at all nervous now.

卡尔感到很恼火。他恨这些劫机犯，也生自己的气，因为他的行动不够迅速，没有帮成哈拉尔德。恼火也有好处，他生气时倒是不觉得那么恐惧了。

Carl felt angry. He was angry with the hijackers and he was angry with himself because he had not moved fast enough to help Harald. It was good to be angry; when he was angry he did not feel so afraid.

“我想你也不明白你到底在干什么。”卡尔说，“在这架飞机上，不曾有任何人伤害过你。我们都是无辜的。你刚才杀死的那个人——他不是间谍，只是个美国商人。你以前连见都没有见过我们。你为什么要杀死我们呢？”

I don’t think you understand what you’re doing,’ Carl said. ’None of the people in this plane has hurt you. We are all innocent. That man you killed — he wasn’t a spy, he was just an American businessman. You’ve never seen any of us before. Why do you want to kill us?’

“好，我知道了。”卡尔小心翼翼地说。他瞅瞅姑娘手里的枪和她的脸色，但是他并不是真的害怕，因为他的怒火还没有消。他像跟自己的女儿争论那样跟这个姑娘争论起来：“但是别忘记你的弟兄们做过的事情。他们试图往飞机上放炸弹，他们企图炸死像我们这样的无辜者。为什么？”

Yes, I know,’ said Carl, carefully. He watched the gun and the girl’s face, but he was not really afraid because he was still angry. He argued with the girl as though he was arguing with his daughter. ’But remember what your brothers did. They tried to put a bomb on a plane. They wanted to kill innocent people like us. Why?’

“你们不是无辜的！”姑娘说，“没有谁是无辜的！像你、你妻子，还有那个美国人那样的人——你们有钱有势，都是从我们老百姓身上刮取的，从我们身上刮取的！你知道我小时候过的是什么样的生活吗？十口人住在一间房子里，里面没有洗澡间，没有水，什么都没有！我的父母没有工作，没有护照，没有国家，一无所有！我们和其他1万多人住在一个小镇子里。可距小镇十公里的地方，住的就是像你这样的富人，他们有漂亮的大房子、高级轿车、华贵的衣服——他们也都是无辜的，就像你一样！我告诉你，没有一个是无辜的！”

You are not innocent!’ said the girl. ’No one is innocent! People like you, and your wife, and that American—you have money and power and you take it from my people, from us! Do you know how I lived when I was a child? Ten people in one room, with no bath, no water, nothing! My parents had no jobs, no passports, no country, nothing! We lived in a town with ten thousand others. But ten kilometres away there were rich people like you, with big beautiful houses, fine cars, fine clothes — and they were all innocent people, like you! I tell you no one is innocent!’

小胡子从机长室走出来，他把手放在姑娘的胳膊上。“别说了，小花朵，”他说，“别搭理他们，这不是你要做的事儿。”随即，他给了卡尔一个耳光。“闭上你的嘴！”他说，“多想想你老婆吧。你看见时间了吗？我想她已经把你忘了！”

The bearded man came out of the Captain’s cabin and put his hand on the girl’s arm. ’Stop it, little flower,’ he said. ’Don’t talk to them. That’s not your job.’ Then he hit Carl in the face. ’Keep your mouth shut!’ he said. ’Think about your wife instead. Do you see the time? I think she has forgotten you!’

卡尔哼了一声，用手捂着嘴。嘴里流血了，一颗牙被打掉了。然后他看看手表。已经2:23了。再有七分钟，又够半个小时了。
