2017年翻譯考試高級英語口譯練習(xí)題：《麻雀》

　　百千寒雀下空庭，小集梅梢話晚晴。

　　特地作團喧殺我，忽然驚散寂無聲。

　　sparrows in winter

　　--yang wanli

　　hundreds of sparrows

　　crowd the empty courtyard in winter

　　they puff in their feathers

　　high on the plum branches

　　they are saying what a fine evening this is

　　what a noise they make to disturb me

　　suddenly they disappear in a startled flock

　　and the world is as still as death

　　(王守義、約翰·諾弗爾 譯)

　　Cold Sparrows

　　Yang Wan-li

　　Hundreds of cold sparrows dive into the empty courtyard,

　　cluster on plum branches and speak of sun after rain at dusk.

　　They choose to gather en masse and kill me with noise.

　　Suddenly startled, they disperse. Then, soundlessness.

　　(Tony Barnstone and Chou Ping 譯)
