　　哈佛大學校園生活情景對話：哈佛深紅報

　　John is reading the newspaper before class.

　　H: Han Meimei J: John

　　H: Hey, John, what are you reading?

　　H:嗨，約翰，你在看什么?

　　J： The Harvard Crimson.

　　J：在看《哈佛深紅報》。

　　H: Is it a newspaper published by Harvard University?

　　H：這是哈佛大學出版的嗎?

　　J: Not exactly, it’s published by Harvard Crimson, Inc.

　　J：不完全是，是哈佛深紅公司出版的。

　　H: Is there a difference?

　　H:不是一樣的嗎?

　　J: The company is independent of the university.

　　J：哈佛深紅公司是獨立于哈佛大學的。

　　H: I got it. A lot of universities have their own presses, and the presses have their own staff, and make their own money.

　　H:我知道了。很多大學有自己的出版社，出版社有自己的員工為自己賺錢。

　　J: Right. But this one is out of the ordinary. It’s non-profit, and its staff is all undergrads from Harvard College.

　　J：對，但是這是一個例外。它是非盈利的，而且里面的員工都是哈佛學院的學生。

　　H: Really? Did I hear it wrong?

　　H:真的?我沒有聽錯吧?

　　J : The newspaper is absolutely run by the Harvard College undergraduate students.

　　J：報刊完全是由哈佛學院的本科生管理的。

　　H: Amazing! Enough to make a cat speak!

　　H:哇，真是令入驚訝

　　J： Don’t appear like Columbus having discovered the New Continent.

　　J：別一副哥倫布發(fā)現(xiàn)新大陸的樣子。

　　H: But I’m really quite shocked. It may be common for students to establish a newspaper. I’ve never heard such a thing as a newspaper run by undergrads can develop into a corporation.

　　H:但是我真的很驚訝。學生創(chuàng)建一個報刊也許很平常，但我從來沒聽說過由大學生 管理的報社能夠成為一家公司。

　　J： It's no surprise that you’re so surprised. Few college newspapers in America have their own printing presses, and The Crimson is one of the few.

　　J:你這么驚訝也不奮怪。因為在美國，幾乎沒有什么大學報刊有自己的印刷設備， 哈佛大學深紅就是少有的一家。

　　H: You should have told me that earlier. You made me look like a mug.

　　H:你應該早點告訴我，弄得我像個傻子一樣。

　　J： Sorry, no offense at all.

　　J：不好意思，我不是故意的。

　　H: So the newspaper is nan-profitable, and independent of the university. Am I right?

　　H:所以說報社是不盈利的，并且獨立于大學，對嗎?

　　J： Yes, all decisions on the content and day-to-day operations of the newspaper are made by undergraduates, having nothing to do with the university administration.

　　J：對，報刊的內容和日常管理都是由學生自己決定的，與大學的行政管理設有任何關系

　　H: Harvard students are, how can I put it, geniuses, given the size of the newspaper.

　　H:這些學生簡直是，怎么說呢，是天才，考慮到報紙的規(guī)模。

　　J: It is one of the first-class universities in the world. You know, a good university is what it is because its students are outstanding.

　　J：哈佛是世界上最好的大學之一。你也知道，學校好是因為它的學生很優(yōu)秀。

　　H: Right. What the newspaper is about?

　　H:對，報刊有些什么內客啊?

　　J: It covers everything, from student activities to arts, anything you can think of.

　　J：它覆蓋了所有東西，從學生的活動到藝術，任何你能想到的都有。

　　H: It sure is big.

　　H:還真是包羅萬象啊。

　　J： Although it’s all-inclusive，it has adhered to journalistic integrity.

　　J：盡管它包羅萬象，但它仍然保持新聞的完整性。

　　H: That deserves respect. How often does it come out?

　　H:那是值得尊重的，那多久出一期啊?

　　J： One day. It’s daily newspaper, and is the only daily newspaper in our city. It comes out every morning.

　　J：—天一期，是我市唯一的日報，每天早上出。

　　H: Does it have enough staff, or students to report the news?

　　H:有足夠的員工或者是學生報道新聞嗎?

　　J: I guess so. And I believe that as long as you become one of them, you can become an editor soon,

　　J：我想有，而且我相信如果你成為其中一員，你會很快成為一個編輯。

　　H: An editor? Can I?

　　H:編輯?我可以嗎?

　　J: Yes, you can do it.

　　J:你可以的。

　　H: Not again! I read from your face that you’re trying to make a monkey out of me.

　　H:少來，你出我洋相吧。

　　J: Whoops! You saw me through.

　　J:哎喲，被你看穿了。

　　H: It’s so transparent. Tell me what’s going on.

　　H:太明顯了。那是怎么一回事啊。

　　J: It’s quite easy to be an editor of The Crimson. As long as you complete a series of requirements known as the “comp", you can be “elected” an “editor” of the newspaper.

　　J：成為深紅的編輯是很容易的。只要你能夠完成"comp"提出的一系列要求，你就 能成為報刊的編輯。

　　H: Too good to be true.

　　H:這讓人難以置信!

　　J： Trust me. All staff members of The Crimson, including writers, photographers, and graphic designers, are technically “editors”.

　　J:相信我，深紅里面所有的員工，包括作者，攝影師和圖像設計師技術上都是編輯。

　　H: That’s a little cheap.

　　H:有點虛偽。

　　J: Don’t look down upon it. Many editors turned out to be Pulitzer Prize-winners, and even Presidents, for example President Franklin D. Roosevelt and President John F. Kennedy.

　　J:不要小看啊，有許多編輯后來獲得了普利策獎，甚至成為總統(tǒng)，比如說富蘭克林?羅 斯?？偨y(tǒng)和約翰?肯尼迪總統(tǒng)。

　　H: Impressive. Anyway, “editor” wins more respect Another question I’ve been meaning to ask you, why is the newspaper called The Crimson? Is it because crimson is Harvard's color?

　　H:真讓人印象深刻。無論如何，編輯會贏得更多尊重。我還想問你一個問題，為什 么報刊名為深紅?是因為哈佛的顏色是深紅色嗎?

　　J: Bingo!

　　J： 對啦!
