Poem 1

Drink to me only with thine eyes,

And I will pledge with mine;

Or leave a kiss but in the cup,

And I’ll not look for wine.

The thirst that from the soul doth rise

Doth ask a drink divine;

But might I of Jove’s Nectar sup,

I would not change for thine.

I sent thee late a rosy wreath,

Not so much honoring thee

As giving it a hope, that thee,

It could not withered be.

But thou thereon did’st only breathe,

Andsent’st it back to me;

Since when it grows, and smells, I swear,

Not of itself, but thee.

Poem 2

One day I wrote her name upon the strand,

But came the waves and washed it away:

Again I wrote it with a second hand,

But came the tide, and made my pains his prey.

"Vain man," said she, "that doest in vain assay.

A mortal thing so to immortalize,

For I myself shall like to this decay,

and eke my name be wiped out likewise."

"Not so," quod I, "let baser things devise,

To die in dust, but you shall live by fame:

My verse your virtues rare shall eternize,

And in the heavens write your glorious name.

Where when as death shall all the world subdue,

Our love shall live, and later life renew."

VI. Translation: (20 points ×2=40 points)

1. Directions: Translate the following paragraph into Chinese. (20 points)

I hate jogging. Every dawn, as I thud around New York City’s Central Park reservoir, I am reminded of how much I hate it. It’s so tedious. Some claim jogging is thought conducive; others insist the scenery relieves the monotony. For me, the pace is wrong for contemplation of either ideas or vistas. While jogging, all I can think about is jogging—or nothing. One advantage of jogging around a reservoir is that there’s no dry shortcut home.

2. Directions: Translate the following paragraph into English. (20 points)

雨后，院里來(lái)了個(gè)麻雀，剛長(zhǎng)全了羽毛。它在院里跳，有時(shí)飛一下，不過(guò)是由地上飛到花盆沿上，或由花盆上飛下來(lái)。看它這么飛了兩三次，我看出來(lái)：它并不會(huì)飛得再高一些，它的左翅的幾根長(zhǎng)翎擰在一處，有一根特別的長(zhǎng)，似乎要脫落下來(lái)。
