1933年 圣路易市
“六年前
‘Six years ago…
1927年5月20日那天清晨
on the morning of May 20, 1927…
正当熟睡时 我的床边电♥话♥开始响了起来
I was fast asleep when my bedside phone began to ring.
我看了一下闹钟 才将近五点
I looked at my alarm clock. It was almost 5:00.
我知道全世界只有一个人
I knew there was only one person in the whole world…
会在这时辰打电♥话♥来
who would call at such an hour.
当我接起电♥话♥后 应证了我的想法没错
And when I picked up the phone, I knew I was right.
我说”喂”线路杂音很大
‘Hello, ‘ I said. There was quite a bit of noise on the line.
“亚伦 我是查尔斯·林德伯格
‘Aaron, Charles Lindbergh here. Sorry about the noise.
我从长岛的罗斯福广场打来的 我们正在做引擎测试”
I’m calling from Roosevelt Field, and we’re doing engine tests.’
“没关系”我回说”我能为你做什么”
‘That’s okay, Slim’, I said. ‘What can I do for you?’
“嗯”他说”记得横越大西洋那趟飞行吗”
‘Well’, he said, ‘remember that flight across the Atlantic I was telling you about?’
我告诉他我记得 他不断说着
I told him I remembered. He’d been telling me about it…
并要我发誓保守秘密
for months and made me swear to keep it a secret.
“情况是这样子”他说”事实是再过几小时我就要启程
‘Here’s the situation’, Slim said. ‘The fact is I’ll be shoving off…
大约7点50分左右 我想问问你关于食物的事”
in a few hours… around 10 to 8:00… and I wanted to ask you about food.’
我说”食物”他回答说”是的”
‘Food?’ I said. ‘Yes’, he replied.
“我预计这次飞行要花大约34小时
‘I anticipate the flight to take about 34 hours…
我想问问你的意见 看看该带哪种食物”
and I wanted your opinion on what kind of food to bring.’
我说”带乳酪三明治就错不了
‘Well’, I said, ‘you can’t go wrong with a cheese sandwich.
别忘了加芥末”
And don’t forget the mustard.’
他笑了
He laughed.
“我就知道问你准没错 我会从巴黎打电报给你”
‘I knew I could count on you, Aaron. I’ll cable you from Paris.’
我告诉他”祝你好运”并挂断了电♥话♥
‘Good luck’, I told him and hung up the phone.
像其他每个人一样 我收听广播
Like everyone else, I listened to the radio…
关于他飞行的新闻
for news about his flight…
我并不担心他的安危 因为我知道他座椅后方
but I wasn’t worried about his safety because I knew he had…
有艘特制的救生艇 以防遭遇紧急状况
a special collapsible lifeboat behind his pilot seat in case of emergency.
但是当《圣路易之魂号♥》降落在巴黎
But when the Spirit of St. Louis landed in Paris…
起飞后的33小时半之后
33 1/2 hours after takeoff…
我大叫到窗户都在震动
I yelled so loud the windows shook.
两天之后 我收到一封电报
Two days later I received a telegram.
写说”抱歉打扰了你的睡眠
It said, ‘Sorry to disturb your sleep…
但是能听见你的声音真好
but alas, ’twas good to hear your voice.
发自你的好朋友查尔斯
Take it from your good friend Chaz…
我嚼的乳酪真是上等”
the cheese I chewed was choice.”‘
完毕
The end.
谢谢你 亚伦
Thank you, Aaron.
那篇文章 非常富有创造力
That was… very inventive.
我母亲是林德伯格婚礼上的伴娘
My mother was the maid of honor at Charles Lindbergh’s wedding.
真的
Really?
今天最后一篇报告 将由比利·汤普森来念
Our last report for the day will be read by Billy Thompson.
他选的美国英雄是 约翰·戴维森·洛克斐勒
The American hero he’s chosen is John D. Rockefeller.
“我选择约翰·戴维森·洛克斐勒 作为我的美国英雄
“I chose John D. Rockefeller as my American hero…
因为 虽然他是世上最有钱的人之一
because, although he’s one of the richest men in the world…
却从未忘记他的卑微出身
he has never forgotten his humble beginnings.
所以他乐善好施
That’s why he gives generously to charity…
救济他在街上所遇见的
and hands out dimes to the poor unfortunates…
穷苦不幸的人”
he encounters on the streets.”
