Unit 3JOURNEY DOWN THE MEKONG 沿湄公河而下的旅程 PART 1 THE DREAM AND THE PLAN 第一部分夢(mèng)想與計(jì)劃 My name is Wang Kun. Ever since middle school, my sister Wang Wei and I have dreamed about taking a great bike trip. 我的名字叫王坤。從高中起，我姐姐王薇和我就一直夢(mèng)想作一次偉大的自行車(chē)旅行。 Two years ago she bought an expensive mountain bike and then she persuaded me to buy one. 兩年前，她買(mǎi)了一輛昂貴的山地自行車(chē)，然后還說(shuō)服我買(mǎi)了一輛（山地車(chē)）。 Last year, she visited our cousins, Dao Wei and Yu Hang at their college in Kunming. 去年她去看望了我們的表兄弟——在昆明讀大學(xué)的刀衛(wèi)和宇航。 They are Dai and grew up in western Yunnan Province near the Lancang River, the Chinese part of the river that is called the Mekong River in other countries. 他們是傣族人，在云南省西部靠近瀾滄江的地方長(zhǎng)大，湄公河在中國(guó)境內(nèi)的這一段叫瀾滄江，在其他國(guó)家（境內(nèi)）叫湄公河。 Wang Wei soon got them interested in cycling too. 很快，王薇使表兄弟也對(duì)騎車(chē)旅游產(chǎn)生了興趣。 After graduating from college, we finally got the chance to take a bike trip. 大學(xué)畢業(yè)以后，我們終于有了機(jī)會(huì)騎自行車(chē)旅行。 I asked my sister, "Where are we going? "我問(wèn)我姐姐：“我們要去哪兒？” It was my sister who first had the idea to cycle along the entire Mekong River from where it begins to where it ends. 首先想到要沿湄公河從源頭到終點(diǎn)騎車(chē)旅游的是我的姐姐。 Now she is planning our schedule for the trip. 現(xiàn)在她正在為我們的旅行制定計(jì)劃。 I am fond of my sister but she has one serious shortcoming. She can be really stubborn. 我很喜歡我姐姐，但是她有一個(gè)很?chē)?yán)重的缺點(diǎn)。她有時(shí)確實(shí)很固執(zhí)。 Although she didnt know the best way of getting to places, she insisted that she organize the trip properly. 盡管她對(duì)去某些地方的最佳路線并不清楚，她卻堅(jiān)持要自己把這次旅游安排得盡善盡美。Now, I know that the proper way is always her way. 于是，我就知道這個(gè)盡善盡美的方式總是她的方式。 I kept asking her, "When are we leaving and when are we coming back?" I asked her whether she had looked at a map yet. 我不停地問(wèn)她，“我們什么時(shí)候出發(fā)？什么時(shí)候回來(lái)？”我還問(wèn)她是否看過(guò)地圖。 Of course, she hadnt; my sister doesnt care about details. 當(dāng)然她并沒(méi)有看過(guò)——我的姐姐是不會(huì)考慮細(xì)節(jié)的。 So I told her that the source of the Mekong is in Qinghai Province. 于是，我告訴她，湄公河的源頭在青海省。 She gave me a determined look—the kind that said she would not change her mind. 她給了我一個(gè)堅(jiān)定的眼神——這種眼神表明她是不會(huì)改變主意的。 When I told her that our journey would begin at an altitude of more than 5,000 metres, she seemed to be excited about it. 我說(shuō)，我們的旅行將從5, 000多米的高地出發(fā)，這時(shí)她似乎顯得很興奮。 When I told her the air would be hard to breathe and it would be very cold, she said it would be an interesting experience. 當(dāng)我告訴她那里空氣稀薄，呼吸困難，而且天氣很冷時(shí)，她卻說(shuō)這將是一次有趣的經(jīng)歷。I know my sister well. Once she has made up her mind, nothing can change it. Finally, I had to give in.我非常了解我的姐姐，她一旦下了決心，什么也不能使她改變。最后，我只好讓步了。 Several months before our trip, Wang Wei and I went to the library. 在我們旅行前的幾個(gè)月，王薇和我去了圖書(shū)館。 We found a large atlas with good maps that showed details of world geography. 我們找到一本大型地圖冊(cè)，里面有一些世界地理的明細(xì)圖。 From the atlas we could see that the Mekong River begins in a glacier on a Tibetan mountain. 我們從圖上可以看到，湄公河發(fā)源于西藏一座山上的冰川。 At first the river is small and the water is clear and cold. Then it begins to move quickly. 起初，江面很小，河水清澈而冷冽，然后它開(kāi)始快速流動(dòng)。 It becomes rapids as it passes through deep valleys, travelling across western Yunnan Province. 它穿過(guò)深谷時(shí)就變成了急流，流經(jīng)云南西部。 Sometimes the river becomes a waterfall and enters wide valleys. 有時(shí)，這條江形成瀑布，進(jìn)入寬闊的峽谷。 We were both surprised to learn that half of the river is in China. 我們倆驚奇地發(fā)現(xiàn)這條河有一半是在中國(guó)境內(nèi)。 After it leaves China and the high altitude, the Mekong becomes wide, brown and warm. 當(dāng)流出中國(guó)，流出高地之后，湄公河就變寬了，變暖了，河水也變成了黃褐色。 As it enters Southeast Asia, its pace slows. It makes wide bends or meanders through low valleys to the plains where rice grows. 而當(dāng)它進(jìn)入東南亞以后，流速減緩，河水蜿蜒緩慢地穿過(guò)低谷，流向生長(zhǎng)稻谷的平原。 At last, the river delta enters the South China Sea. 最后，湄公河三角洲的各支流流入中國(guó)南海。 6.Unit3 夜晚的西藏山景 PART 2 A NIGHT IN THE MOUNTAINS 第二部分山中一宿 Although it was autumn, the snow was already beginning to fall in Tibet. 雖然是秋天，但是西藏已經(jīng)開(kāi)始下雪了。 Our legs were so heavy and cold that they felt like blocks of ice. 我們的腿又沉又冷，感覺(jué)就像大冰塊。 Have you ever seen snowmen ride bicycles? 你看到過(guò)雪人 騎自行車(chē)嗎？ Thats what we looked like! 我們看上去就像那樣。 Along the way children dressed in long wool coats stopped to look at us .一路上，一些身著羊毛大衣的孩子們停下來(lái)看著我們。 In the late afternoon we found it was so cold that our water bottles froze. 下午晚些時(shí)候，我們發(fā)現(xiàn)由于天冷我們的水壺都凍上了。 However, the lakes shone like glass in the setting sun and looked wonderful. 然而，湖水在落日的余暉下閃亮如鏡，景色迷人 。Wang Wei rode in front of me as usual. She is very reliable and I knew I didn’t need to encourage her. 像往常一樣，王薇在我的前面，她很可靠，我知道我用不著給她鼓勁兒。 To climb the mountains was hard work but as we looked around us, we were surprised by the view. We seemed to be able to see for miles. 上山很艱難，但是當(dāng)我們環(huán)顧四周，（眼前的）景色讓我們感到驚奇，我們似乎能看到幾百里以外的地方。 At one point we were so high that we found ourselves cycling through clouds. 在某個(gè)時(shí)刻，我們發(fā)現(xiàn)自己置身高處，彷佛騎車(chē)穿越云層。 Then we began going down the hills.It was great fun especially as it gradually became much warmer. 然后我們開(kāi)始下山，這非常有趣，特別是天氣逐漸變得暖和多了。 In the valleys colourful butterflies flew around us and we saw many yaks and sheep eating green grass. 在山谷里，五彩斑斕的蝴蝶翩翩飛舞在我們身旁，我們還看到牦牛和羊群在吃草。 At this point we had to change our caps, coats, gloves and trousers for T-shirts and shorts. 這時(shí)，我們不得不把帽子、外衣、手套和長(zhǎng)褲脫掉，換成T恤衫和短褲。 In the early evening we always stop to make camp. We put up our tent and then we eat. 一到傍晚，我們通常就停下來(lái)宿營(yíng)，（于是），我們先把帳篷支起來(lái)，然后吃飯。 After supper Wang Wei put her head down on her pillow and went to sleep but I stayed awake. 晚飯后，王薇把頭放在枕頭上就睡覺(jué)了，而我卻醒著。 At midnight the sky became clearer and the stars grew brighter. 半夜里，天空變得清朗了，星星更亮了。 It was so quiet. There was almost no wind-only the flames of our fire for company. （夜晚）非常安靜——幾乎沒(méi)有風(fēng)，只有篝火的火焰和我們做伴。 As I lay beneath the stars I thought about how far we had already travelled .當(dāng)我躺在星空下，我想著我們已經(jīng)走了多遠(yuǎn)。 We will reach Dali in Yunnan Province soon, where our cousins Dao Wei and Yu Hang will join us. We can hardly wait to see them! 我們很快就要到達(dá)云南的大理。在那里，我們的表兄弟刀衛(wèi)和宇航將加入我們的行列。我們迫不及待地想要見(jiàn)到他們！
