【英语强人系列】原创微型小说“人生ABC”,多谢指点!

《人生ABC》简介

《人生ABC》属于微型小说。从篇幅上看,它比小小说更短,题材更小,截取生活中的一个小片段来反映人生,小中见大的,其寓意深刻,给人们以启迪。 这篇微型小说从三位主人公的不同性格,而走出的三条不同的道路,告诉人们,稳定心态的同时要用于拼搏,这样才会在当今的社会中立于不败之地。

人 生 ABC

故事发生在东北某个沿海城市,在一个盛夏的下午,某届高校毕业生欢聚一堂,快乐地畅谈创业的历史。

A君已经是当地小有名气的私企老板了,几年的打拼,积蓄颇丰,典型的“富人”代表。

B君正好相反,资金有限的他早已向二手房市场下了手,最近又贷款买了一套住房,是新人类“负人”的代表,负债经营嘛,但现在还是过得不错的。

C君则一个人默默的坐在角落里,他一言不发,“喂,小C,你这几年过得怎么样?“我,我,我没有A君那么有钱,不想付出那么多;又没有B君的魄力,怕将来还不上银行的钱……”

又过了几年,A君由于一次投入过大,大伤元气,公司已经开始了减员。B君由于房价上涨,已经赚到了大把钞票。C君由于前怕狼后怕虎,最后只能以“C粥”为伴,将一些“维生素C”加入粥内,以补充营养,连菜都吃不上了!

又过了十年,B君与某港商合作在本市成功的开发了几座新型楼盘,身价已过上亿,成了远近闻名的“亿万富翁”,并且已将A君的公司收购,作为自己的分公司,然而步入中年的C君最终在B君的物业公司中,找到了一份“打更”的活,反正远离了那些“扫地”的累活,他很满足了。

(编者感言)“从起点又回到了终点。”“二十年前,大家各奔东西,几年后,又相聚,又分开,最后三个人又走到了一起,只是‘人生ABC’中的三位主人公调换了角色,B君早已成为剧中的主演,而配角依然是配角。“做事稳健的B君既没有A君的草率,又没有C君的胆小,但他有一颗平常心,相信他会在人生的舞台上越走越远的!”

參考答案:

Introduction to “The ABCs of Life”

“The ABCs of Life” is a micro-novel. Looking at its length, it is shorter than a mini-novel, with a narrower subject matter. It takes a small chapter from life to reflect on the human condition; it is a microcosm of society, with deep, inspirational allegories. Based on the three protagonists’ contrasting personalities, this micro-novel takes the reader down three entirely different paths. The novel encourages readers to face life’s challenges head on with a calm mentality, in order to truly succeed in life.

The ABCs of Life

The story begins on a summer afternoon in a coastal city in the North-East. A class of graduates celebrate their school reunion, and were happily chatting about their careers.

Mr A is a well-known small business owner in the local area. After a few years of entrepreneurship, he established quite a few assets, and became what was a classic “rich person”.

Mr B was the opposite, he entered the second-hand housing market with his limited capital. He had recently acquired a mortgage to buy a new residential suite. He is what you would call a “home boss” in this new age, as he is in charge of his own operations. He lives a good life.

Mr C quietly sat in the corner, alone and without words. “Hey C, how did you do in the last couple of years?” “Me? I..I don’t have as much money as A, I didn’t want to give up so much; I don’t have B’s courage, I’m afraid of not being able to pay off the bank…”

A few years later, because of an over-investment, Mr A lost a lot of capital, and he had to start down-sizing his company. Mr B rode on the back of the property boom and made some big money. As for Mr C, he could only rely on “C porridge”, that is porridge plus Vitamin C for nutrition, as he couldn’t even afford vegetables!

Another ten years later, Mr B negotiated a deal with a Hong Kong investment group, and developed a few properties of his own. He is now worth over 1 billion Yuan, he is the famous “billionaire” in the country. He bought Mr A’s company as one of his subsidiaries. The now middle-aged Mr C finally found employment at one of Mr B’s property companies, as a “security guard”. At least it’s not a cleaning job, he was relatively satisfied.

Editor’s Note: “Back to the starting point.”

“Twenty years ago, everyone went their separate ways, a few years later, they met, separated, and met again, except the characters had swapped roles in ‘The ABCs of Life’. Mr B became the main character, but the supporting roles remained supporting roles.” The level-headed Mr B was not careless like Mr A, and nor was he cowardly like Mr C. He viewed life with a sense of balance, I believe he will go far in this game of life.

Translator’s Note: “Fortune favours the brave!”
