CATTI+MTI高斋翻译TransElegant读书苦乐
杨绛
我曾挨过几下“棍子”，说我读书“追求精神享受”。我当时只好低头认罪。我也承认自己确实不是苦读。不过“乐在其中”并不等于追求享受。这话可为知者言，不足为外人道也。
The Bitter-Sweetness of Reading
Yang Jiang
I was “cudgeled” a couple of times, being reprimanded for reading “to seek spiritual indulgence.” At the time, I had to bow my head and confess my sin. And I have to admit as well that I’ve never made any painstaking effort. Nevertheless, “enjoying reading” doesn’t mean seeking indulgence, whose truth can only be shared with like-minded people, but goes beyond those without similar experiences.
