双城记精彩段落双语赏析1
It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief,it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair, we had everything before us, we had nothing before us, we were all going direct to Heaven, we were all going direct the other way- in short, the period was so far like the present period, that some of its noisiest authorities insisted on its being received, for good or for evil, in the superlative degree of comparison only.
那是最美好的时代，那是最糟糕的时代；那是智慧的年头，那是愚昧的年头；那是信仰的时期，那是怀疑的时期；那是光明的季节，那是黑暗的季节；那是希望的春天，那是失望的冬天；我们全都在直奔天堂，我们全都在直奔相反的方向--简而言之，那时跟现在非常相象，某些最喧嚣的权威坚持要用形容词的最高级来形容它。说它好，是最高级的；说它不好，也是最高级的。

There were a king with a large jaw and a queen with a plain face, onthe throne of England; there were a king with a large jaw and aqueen with a fair face, on the throne of France. In both countriesit was clearer than crystal to the lords of the State preserves ofloaves and fishes, that things in general were settled for ever.
英格兰宝座上有一个大下巴的国王和一个面貌平庸的王后；法兰西宝座上有一个大下巴的国王和一个面貌姣好的王后。对两国支配着国家全部财富的老爷来说，国家大局足以万岁千秋乃是比水晶还清楚的事。
附：《双城记》文艺评论
《双城记》呈现的世界，是一个善恶交织、爱恨并置，智慧和愚蠢共存，光明和黑暗搏斗的世界。小说暗示，如果前者战胜后者，人类就能迎来希望的春天，就可能奔向天堂，亦即理想社会，也就是小说结尾处英国青年卡尔登的愿景：社会公平、法律公正、人性美好，人们的生活平静而幸福等等。为爱情和友情做出自我牺牲的卡尔登，以及为伸张正义而身陷囹圄的梅尼特医生，正代表了人类的希望。
如果人们像小说中描写的一些人那样以恶抗恶，以残忍对抗残忍，以愚蠢对付愚蠢，那就只能造成恶性循环，使人类在绝望的冬天里徘徊，并最终走向毁灭。“《双城记》警告人们：“只要种下的仍然是掠夺与压迫的种子，那么结出的必然是同类的果实。”（第15章）
很多评论者都提到，狄更斯写《双城记》，是想对当时的英国提出警告。他认为，那时的'英国和大革命前的法国一样，贫富差别巨大，社会极不公正，危机四伏。评论者特别指出，狄更斯警告的不是底层的农民或平民，而是社会精英。不识字的农民和贫困的平民，都不在他小说的读者群之内。他警告的主要是贵族特权阶层的人，社会上有权有势的人，以及文化精英。
《双城记》有什么现世意义呢？tutorabc认为一是不要以暴制暴，尽管社会发展过程中会有一些不和谐的声音，但我们要始终保持自己的初心；二是精英人群要警惕自身道德修养，特别是一些有钱有权的精英要注意自身修养不要过于浮躁。《双城记》内涵丰富，值得一看。

双城记
为了你，为了你所亲爱的任何人，我愿意做任何事情。倘若我的生命中有值得牺牲的可能和机会，
我甘愿为你和你所爱的人们而牺牲。
就这样被感动了。它是一部波澜壮阔的历史，它是一个感人肺腑的故事，它更是一种纯洁而高尚的爱。它就是狄更斯笔下的《双城记》。全书充溢着扑朔迷离的色彩，作者以一连串引人入胜的故事为框架，以十八世纪法国大革命为背景。在黑暗的资本主义社会里，农民阶级和工人阶级忍受着资产阶级无情的剥削。正如作者所说：“昌盛而又衰微，笃诚而又多疑，光明而又黑暗，这是充满阳光希望的黎明，又是阴暗失望的长夜，人们拥有一切，却两手空空。”而主人公西德尼·卡尔顿、露西·曼内特和查尔斯·达尔内之间真挚的情感，成为这部名著亮丽的一笔。
在小说中，狄更斯成功地塑造了主要人物鲜明的个性。曼内特是个深爱女儿的父亲，在经历磨难后仍宽容地把女儿嫁给仇人的儿子；露西是温柔善良的贤妻良母，为了让丈夫能看自己一眼每天风雨不改地到大墙对面站立两小时；查尔斯是个正直、豁达的.贵族，与露西相爱，为了爱情甘愿放弃爵位与财产。
小说中还有一个人物，就是让人有点憎恶的泰雷兹·德伐日。失去亲人使她活着的唯一意义就是革命胜
以想象的，然而为了发泄积愤却拿侯爵兄弟的儿子及其家人抵罪，她走上了一条与那些伪贵族同样残忍的
道路，于是她的种种行为使她一步步失去了读者的谅解。最后，恶人有恶报，她戏剧性地因为手q走火而
结束了自己充满仇恨的一生。也许这才是她最佳的结局。那些像德伐日那样以复仇为生活唯一目的的人，
即使命运坎坷，也决不能博得人们的同情。
而在整篇小说中，最让我喜欢也是最令人感动的就是律师助手——西德尼·卡尔顿。他一出场就带着一身忧郁，隐去了光芒，总是灰心、失望、冷漠、凄凉。他妥协于周围环境，但有时却又显得格格不入，作为律师助手的他才华出众，却甘心情愿躲在人后，做别人成功的垫脚石，他仿佛亲手筑起了一堵墙，隔绝了名利、社会，默默地逗留在角落里。他与查尔斯长得十分相似，也同样深爱着露西，然而两者命运却截然不同。他羡慕查尔斯，也恨他。可在经历痛苦的煎熬后，他依旧带着诚挚的祝福，愿露西与查尔斯永远幸福，因为“爱比恨更为强有力得多”。这个表面上懒散、放纵的“无用之徒”，内心却是崇高而纯洁的。
终于，他向露西表达了自己的情感。每次读起那段话，难免感到心酸，“我希望你知道你是我灵魂最后的梦。我是在堕落的生活中看见你和你的父亲，还有你所经营的那个甜蜜的家，才恢复了我心中自以为早己死去的往日的梦想。我也因此才感到比任何时候都要凄凉可怜。自从我见到你以后，我才为一种原以为不会再谴责我的悔恨所苦恼。我听到我以为早已永远沉默的往日的声音在悄悄地催我上进…………”
当查尔斯因为家族的犯罪而被无辜判决死刑，西德尼竟然代替他去断头台接受行刑。在生命与爱之间，他选择了后者。他爱露西，为了她的幸福，他为她的爱人献出自己的生命。当他走上断头台的时候，面上依然保持着笑容，他信守对露西的诺言……因为，他的爱便是他的生命。此时此刻，我的脑海中想起了裴多菲的那首诗：“我愿意是急流/山里的小河/在崎岖的路上/岩石上经过/只要我的爱人是一条小鱼/在我的浪花中快乐地游来游去……”
尽管小说以一个意外的“大团圆”收场，但当读者流着眼泪读完该书时，却感到无限的遗憾、心酸。有人说爱情是自私的，但在狄更斯的《双城记》中，我却能深深地感受到一种超脱世俗的最纯洁、最崇高的爱。它隐藏在内心深处，但却无比的深厚；它默默地承受煎熬，为的只是使心爱的人幸福；它总是无私地付出，而不求一点儿的回报。这种爱在无形中上升到一个新境界，永恒地放着凄美而迷人的光彩。
“为了你，为了你所亲爱的任何人，我愿意做任何事情。倘若我的生命中有值得牺牲的可能和机会，我甘愿为你和你所爱的人们而牺牲。”
