1、男人間無(wú)聲的友誼 The silence of men in general is overtalked about and overcriticized. To be sure, men never open up as much as women want them to, but there is a wordless understanding in which we function fairly well especially in friendships. 　　男人的沉默往往被過(guò)多地談?wù)撉疫^(guò)分指責(zé)。（但）可以肯定的是，男人從未像女人所希望的那樣開誠(chéng)布公地說(shuō)出自己的心里話，但

2、我們卻能很好地運(yùn)用無(wú)言的理解，尤其是在維持彼此的友誼的過(guò)程中。 　　I believe, in fact, that most women would prefer a man to be glumlyuncommunicative than to [1] spill his guts at the drop of a hat. 　　事實(shí)上，我相信大多數(shù)女人都寧愿男人可以憂郁地不言不語(yǔ)，而不喜歡男人就像竹筒倒豆子，什么都說(shuō)。 　　The push for men to express their feelings presumes that we have feelings, and

3、 we do have a few, but they remain submerged, and the [2] airing of them often violates their authenticity. 　　男人被認(rèn)定為應(yīng)表達(dá)感情，這就是他們表達(dá)情感的推動(dòng)力。不錯(cuò)，我們確實(shí)有一些，但隱而不露，若要表達(dá)出來(lái)就會(huì)破壞其真實(shí)性。 　　I am no biologist, but my guess is that the male human animal was programmed for silence. I would go so far as to argue that m

4、en were programmed to be isolated from one another and that aloneness is our natural state. Silence in male friendships is our way of being alone with each other. 　　我不是生物學(xué)家，但我猜想男人這種動(dòng)物天生就是沉默寡言的。我甚至認(rèn)為男人天生就是彼此孤立的，孤獨(dú)是我們的自然狀態(tài)。男人間的友誼表現(xiàn)為沉默寡言，正是我們彼此獨(dú)自生活方式的表現(xiàn)。 　　Once men have established a friendship, tha

5、t itself is the word. The affection is obvious, at least to us. A main component of our silence is an appreciation of the obvious. 　　一旦男人間建立起友誼，友誼本身就已說(shuō)明了一切。情感是明顯的，至少對(duì)我們來(lái)說(shuō)，我們沉默的一個(gè)主要組成部分就是對(duì)這明顯情感的欣賞。 　　注解： 　　1. spill one’s guts本意是“告密”，和”spill the beans”意思相近，但是后者包含“不慎泄露風(fēng)聲”的意思，而前者則是刻意泄露。“ At the drop of a hat”是“突然”的意思。在這里，“spill his guts at the drop of a hat”指一個(gè)人藏不住心里的話，經(jīng)常不經(jīng)覺地就把許多話告訴別人。 　　2. airing是由air派生出來(lái)的，作名詞用時(shí)是“風(fēng)干”的意思。它同時(shí)也是air的動(dòng)名詞，有“張揚(yáng)”的意思。在這個(gè)句子中，airing指代的也就是feeling,即感情的張揚(yáng)。
