第二章 金艾博特村的名流 当然,艾克罗伊德并不是一位真正的乡绅,他是一个非常出色的车轮制造商。年近五十,脸色红润,待人和蔼。他与教区牧师的关系很密切,把大把大把的钱捐献给教会,作为教区救济金,尽管外面谣传,说他在个人花钱方面非常吝啬。他还慷慨地资助板球比赛、少年俱乐部、残废军人疗养所。事实上他给金艾博特这个宁静的村子带来了生气和活力。
罗杰·艾克罗伊德二十一岁时就爱上了比他大五六岁的漂亮少妇,同年与她结了婚。她的名字叫佩顿,是生有一个孩子的寡妇。他们的婚姻时间并不长,生活充满了不幸。直率一点说,艾克罗伊德太太是一个嗜酒狂,婚后四年因酗酒而命归黄泉。
妻子死后的多年中,艾克罗伊德一直没有考虑再次娶妻。妻子与前夫生的孩子拉尔夫·佩顿七岁就失去了母爱,他现在已有二十五岁。艾克罗伊德一直把他当作自己的亲生儿子来抚养,但这个孩子非常粗野,总是惹事,继父为他操心不已。尽管如此,在金艾博特这个村子里,人们都喜欢他。其中一个原因是这位小伙子长得英俊潇洒。
吉林版 当然,艾克罗伊德不真正是一位乡绅。他是一个十分有成就的货车车轮制造商(我想)。他是一个近五十岁年纪的人,面容红润, 性情和蔼。他与教区牧师很密切,为教区基金慷慨捐款,赞助板球比赛,少年俱乐部和残废军人学校。事实上,他是我们金斯艾博特宁静村落的生命和灵魂。 当罗杰,艾克罗伊德是一个二十一岁的青年时,他爱上了一个比他大有五、六岁的美丽女人,并且和他结了婚。她名叫佩顿,是带着一个孩子的寡妇。结婚的历史很短促而痛苦。直截了当的说,艾克罗伊德夫人上一个嗜酒狂。在她婚后四年,她就把自己喝进了坟墓。 在以后的年月里,艾克罗伊德并未有意进行第二次婚姻冒险。艾克罗伊德妻子带来的那个小孩,在她死时,仅仅七岁。现在已经二十五岁了……
英文原版: Of course, Ackroyd is not really a country squire. He is an immensely successful manufacturer of (I think) wagon wheels. He is a man of nearly fifty years of age, rubicund of face and genial of manner. He is hand and glove with the vicar, subscribes liberally to parish funds (though rumour has it that he is extremely mean in personal expenditure), encourages cricket matches, Lads' Clubs, and Disabled Soldiers' Institutes. He is, in fact, the life and soul of our peaceful village of King's Abbot.
Now when Roger Ackroyd was a lad of twenty-one, he fell in love with, and married, a beautiful woman some five or six years his senior. Her name was Paton, and she was a widow with one child. The history of the marriage was short and painful. To put it bluntly, Mrs. Ackroyd was a dipsomaniac. She succeeded in drinking herself into her grave four years after her marriage.
In the years that followed, Ackroyd showed no disposition to make a second matrimonial adventure. His wife's child by her first marriage was only seven years old when his mother died. He is now twenty-five. Ackroyd has always regarded him as his own son, and has brought him up accordingly, but he has been a wild lad and a continual source of worry and trouble to his stepfather. Nevertheless we are all very fond of Ralph Paton in King's Abbot. He is such a good-looking youngster for one thing.
在艾克罗伊德二十一岁时候爱上了一个带着孩子的美丽女人……案发的时候,艾克罗伊德是将近50岁,说明已经过去了29年左右,而那个孩子(佩顿)现在至少是30岁(因为没有说佩顿夫人嫁给罗杰时候孩子到底是几岁),但是小说里无一例外的却是twenty-five…… 我只有吉林版的,还好罗修找来贵州版,对比之下才发现,AC果然是老眼昏花了
