I WAS born in the year 1632, in the city of York, of a good family, though not
of that country, my father being a foreigner of Bremen, who settled first at
Hull. He got a good estate by merchandise, and leaving off his trade, lived
afterwards at York, from whence he had married my mother, whose relations
were named Robinson, a very good family in that country, and from whom I
was called Robinson Kreutznaer; but, by the usual corruption of words in
England, we are now called - nay we call ourselves and write our name -
Crusoe; and so my companions always called me.
……
As I had been one voyage to this coast before, I knew very well that the islands of the Canaries, and the Cape de Verde Islands also, lay not far off from the coast. But as I had no instruments to take an observation to know what latitude we were in, and not exactly knowing, or at least remembering, what latitude they were in, I knew not where to look for them, or when to stand off to sea towards them; otherwise I might now easily have found some of these islands. But my hope was, that if I stood along this coast till I came to that part where the English traded, I should find some of their vessels upon their usual design of trade, that would relieve and take us in.
……
When I had gone through this work I was extremely delighted with it. The boat was really much bigger than ever I saw a canoe or periagua, that was made of one tree, in my life. Many a weary stroke it had cost, you may be sure; and had I gotten it into the water, I make no question, but I should have begun the maddest voyage, and the most unlikely to be performed, that ever was undertaken.
……
In this voyage I visited my new colony in the island, saw my successors the Spaniards, had the old story of their lives and of the villains I left there; how at first they insulted the poor Spaniards, how they afterwards agreed, disagreed, united, separated, and how at last the Spaniards were obliged to use violence with them; how they were subjected to the Spaniards, how honestly the Spaniards used them - a history, if it were entered into, as full of variety and wonderful accidents as my own part - particularly, also, as to their battles with the Caribbeans, who landed several times upon the island, and as to the improvement they made upon the island itself, and how five of them made an attempt upon the mainland, and brought away eleven men and five women prisoners, by which, at my coming, I found about twenty young children on the island.

汉译英:
他告诉学生:“如果想在写作上有所建树,就要保持一尺深的热爱,也就是说,坚持写完一尺厚废稿。其间,不心急,不绝望,心中总有期待和热爱,对前途充满信心和希望。”
学生们恍然大悟,这才知道,文满芳华,不是唾手可得,而是非得下一番苦功夫不可。他们激情满怀,个个跃跃欲试。
朋友接着说:“千万记住,热爱也只能是一尺深!如果写了一尺厚的废稿之后,还停留在中学生的作文水平,那注定此路不通,不如改事他行,省得文章误我,蹉跎岁月。”
其实,做任何事情都是这样,保持一尺深的热爱。爱要深沉执著,但是,如果爱得辛苦无着,请及早抽身而退,趁青春,另寻出口。成败,就在转身之间。
英译汉:
It is the fashion of great nations to insist upon some part of their inheritance, their military memories, or their letters, or their religion, or some other thing. But in modern Europe, as it seems to me, three or four of the great nations can play upon many such titles to joy as upon an instrument. For a man in Italy, or England, or France, or Spain, if he is weary of the manifold literature of his own country, can turn to its endurance under arms ( in which respect, by the way, victory and defeat are of little account ) , or if he is weary of these military things, or thinks the too continued contemplation of them hurtful to the State ( as it often is, for it goes to the head like wine) , he can consider the great minds which his nation has produced, and which give glory to his nation not so much because they are great as because they are national. Then , again, he can consider the landscapes of his own land, whether peaceably, as do older men, or in a riot of enthusiasm as do all younger men who see England in the midest of exercising their bodies, as it says in the Song of the Man.
