啊。。。好不容易翻译完了。 这个故事我读过,不过中间是不是缺了一部分??
希望你能够满意:)
有一个宁静的半晚,一群子孙围着一个老奶奶,缠着老奶奶讲故事,老奶奶说,好吧,就讲一个项链的故事。
One quiet evening, a couple of children gathered around an old grandmother and begged her to tell them a story. The grandmother said, well then, I will tell you a story about a necklace.
有这样一个女人,服如凝脂,双眸如星,脸若桃花,
Once upon a time, there was a woman with skin as soft as velvet, eyes as sparkling as the stars, and a face as beautiful as cherry blossoms.
风华绝代,但却没有任何机会步入上流,是任何有钱、有地位的男人了解她、爱她、娶她。
Her beauty was breathtaking, but there was no way for her to enter the high society, where men with money and status would understand her, love her, and marry her.
但女人心中总有些小小期许,于是在嫁给一个教委的小职员后,总不免有些失望。
But still, the woman never let go of these small dreams, which left her quite unhappy and disappointed after having married a regular employee of the Board of Education.
便整日憔悴、自怜,感叹时事不济。
Throughout the days, she would wallow in self-pity and complain about her cruel fate.
终于有一天,丈夫受邀参加上流聚会了,但她却没有合适的衣物参加,于是便向好朋友求
救。。。。
Until one day, her husband received an invitation for a high society ball. Since she didn’t have appropriate clothes for such a glamorous occasion, she had to ask a friend for help...

终于,我们的女主角等来了一天,果然,她成为了万众瞩目焦点
Finally, the much anticipated day has come for our heroine. And indeed, she became the center of the ball, attracting all eyes on he.
但是,离太阳越近却越是容易别太阳灼伤,于是从这一刻的辉煌,她将步入下半生的不幸。
However, the closer one gets to the sun, the more vulnerable one gets to be burned by the rays of the sun. From this one moment of glory on, the woman is going to step into deep misfortune for the rest of her life.
灾难终于还是来了,孩子们,
My children, the disaster eventually arrived.
故事完了,我们的女主角为一串项链失去了整个年华。
That’s the end of the story. Our heroine has wasted her whole life because of a necklace.
孩子们,当我们为了一时的虚荣亦是快感,而追逐一些本不属于我们的东西,注定也必须得不偿失。
My dear children, if we pursue some things that are not supposed to be ours only in order to achieve a short moment of happiness to comfort our vanity, we are destined to lose more than gain.
我们在笑女主角的愚笨,却忘了她也有值得钦佩的品质,
While laughing about the woman’s stupidity, we shouldn’t forget some of her qualities that are quite worth admiring.
比如她敢于为自己的责任承担后果却是我们值得学习的。
For example, she is bold to stand up for her own faults, which something we could learn from her
但孩子们,我们应替她庆幸,
But furthermore, we should feel glad for her.
万一如果是我们,没有能力为自己的过失付出代价,那岂不是更可悲?
.If it had been us, and we couldn’t have paid the price for where we have failed – wouldn’t that be even more sad?
A quiet half of the evening, a group of children around a grandmother, grandmother wrapped around a story, grandma said, Well, the story about a necklace.
Such a woman, serving as creamy, eyes like stars, if the peach face, beauty, who, without any opportunity to enter the upper class, and no money, the men standing about her, love her, marry her. But the woman in mind there are always little expectations, then married to a Board of Education in the small staff, the total bit disappointed. It all day gaunt, self-pity, sigh current affairs bad. Finally one day, her husband invited to participate in elite gatherings, but she do not have appropriate clothing to participate in, told the friend for help. . . .

Finally, our heroine and so a day, and sure enough, she became the focus of everyone's watching, but from the sun, but more likely the closer the sun do not burn, so from this moment of glory, into the rest of his life's unfortunate that she will.
Disaster finally did come, the children,
The story is over, our heroine is the Love lost a necklace. Children, when we for the moment is the thrill of vanity, and chasing some of the things we are not doomed to have to more harm than good. Our heroine's stupid laugh, but forgot she also has admirable qualities, like her the courage to own responsibility for the consequences is that we should all learn. However, the children, we should rejoice for her, in case if we can not afford to pay the price for their mistakes, it not be more pathetic?

One quite evening, a group of children gathered around an old grandmother, begging her to tell stories. The grandmother said, all right then, I will tell you a story about a necklace.

There was once a woman whose skin was smooth like that of silk, eyes sparkly like that of stars, and face alluring like that of cherry blossoms. She was beautiful beyong belief, yet had no chance in entering the elevated society where rich and highly positioned men would get to know her, lover her, and marry her. But the woman couldn't leave the tiny longing of hers behind, so naturally she was rather disappointed when she married an ordinary employee at the board of education. Consequently, the woman lived in constant despondency and self-pity, sighing about how things don't run as desired. Eventually, her husband was invited to an upper class soiree. But she didn't have anything suitable to wear to the event, so she turned to her friend for help...
终于,我们的女主角等来了一天,果然,她成为了万众瞩目焦点,但是,离太阳越近却越是容易别太阳灼伤,于是从这一刻的辉煌,她将步入下半生的不幸。
Finally, the day that our heroine so desperately yearned for had arrived. Naturally, she captivated the attention of the entire soiree. However the closer one gets to the sun, the higher chance one gets burned by in. Therefore after that glorious moment, she will soon fall into a life-long tragedy.

The disaster came for her eventually. My children, that is the end of the story. Our heroine wasted her life for a necklace. Now, children, when we pursue something that doesn't belong to us for momentary vain and satisfaction, we are bound to lose something too. While we laugh at the heroine's stupidity, we forget a part of her admirable character. For example, her courage to take on the consequences of her own actions is worth learning. But children, we should feel glad for her. If we were she and didn't have the ability to compensate for our mistakes, wouldn't that be even more pitiful?
