话说现在是个该死的高三生 今天最後一次模拟考 第一节考英文 写啊写 看到最後一篇阅读测验 咦~~ Guns N` Roses? 本来写到要睡着的又醒了过来 内容还满有趣的 以下翻译 --------------------------------- 　　过去的四分之一个世纪，我一直是搭机赶场表演。我也有在外国土地上冒险犯难的经 验。１９９２年，「枪与玫瑰」乐团在委内瑞拉表演，我们从雨果．查维兹发动的流产政 变中死里逃生。我不知道政变是何物。甚至不知道这两个字的写法。我只知道，它对我们 是个不祥之兆。我算幸运，查维兹喜欢我们这个乐团，等我们包机离开，他才让军机扫射 机场。 　　那一趟南美洲旅行，我们还向另一个国家的移民局行贿３万美元，以便能够演出，虽 然我从未犯下大罪，甚至连行为不检也无，机场「随机」挑人接受进一步安检，我却永远 中奖。站在我前面的是个怪咖，安检人员却是一挥手要他走人。但是他们不放过我，如果 机场安检是乐透，我准是富豪中的富豪。 　　没人能够告诉我，为什麽这种事老是发生在我身上。可能是安检人员没人喜欢我的音 乐，不过我还是保持一贯的礼貌，即使是在我被拉出队伍时。这种是太常发生，我数都数 不清楚了。我很少搭包机了。无论是和「丝绒左轮」乐团，或者是我的「子弹上膛」乐团 出门表演，我现在都一概搭客机。我只想从甲地到达乙地，而且越少麻烦越好。我是个最 不具威胁性的旅人。我是说，我玩填字游戏打发时间，能闹出什麽事来？我是个填字游戏 迷，我把这种惯例当作自我反省的机会。我也不介意与邻座的人聊天。飞机上偶尔有人认 出我，想和我聊音乐。我什麽都乐意聊，就是不想谈音乐。我还是希望我的邻座是个填字 游戏迷，这样我们便能互相帮忙。知道「推翻」的另一种说法吗？四个字母。就是「政变 」啦（coup）。 注:本文口述者是Duff McKagan -- Shed a tear 'cause I'm missin' you I'm still alright to smile. Girl, I think about you every day now Was a time when I wasn't sure. But you set my mind at ease There is no doubt you're in my heart now <Guns N' Roses - Patience> --

※ 发信站: 批踢踢实业坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 59.116.140.32 ※ 编辑: lovelve 来自: 59.116.140.32 (12/23 18:48) I`ve been flying to work the last quarter-century.And I`ve had my share of foreign-soil adventures,like escaping a coup attempt by Hugo Chavez in 1992, when Guns N` Roses was playing in Venezuela.I didn`t know what a coup was. I did`t even know how to spell it.All I knew was that it did`t bode well for us.Fotunately for me,Mr.Chavez liked our band and waited for our chartered plane to leave before he strafed the airport. That particular trip to South America also involved a bribe of $30,000 to another country`s immigration service so we could play ous show.Although I`ve never been convicted of a felony or even a misdemeanor,I`m always the guy that gets "randomly" selected for a more thorough security check. I could be standing behind someone who is a jerk,and he gets waved through.Not me. If airport security was the lottery,I would be richer than rich. No one can tell me why this happens.Maybe none of the security people like my music.But I`m still unfailingly polite,even when I`m yanked out of line, which happens so offen that I`ve lost count. I rarely fly a charter anymore. Now it`s all commercial when I play with Velvet Revolver or my band,Loaded. All I want to fo is to get from Point A to Point B with as little hassle as possible.I`m the most nonthreatening of travelers.I mean,how much of a scene can I cause when I spend time doing crossword puzzles?I`m a crossword puzzles fanatic.I look at this ritual as achance for me to meditate.I also don`t mind talking to seatmeates.Occasionally,someone on the plane will recognize me and will want to talk music.I like to talk about everything but music.I`m still hoping for a seatmate who is a crossword puzzle fan so we can help each other out.When to know a four-letter word for an upset?It`s a coup. ※ 编辑: lovelve 来自: 59.116.140.32 (12/23 20:30)
