How I Lost Four Ounces in Three Weeks(我怎樣在三週裏減了四盎司體重)

1. "I'm not fat," I told my neighbor, "but I would like to lose a little—about ten pounds."

1、我對鄰居説：“我不算胖，但是我想減點體重—大約10磅左右吧。”

2. "Ten pounds?" he said. "That's easy. I lost 20 pounds just by running every day."

2、他回答説：“減10磅?那不費事。我只是每天跑步，就掉了20磅了。”

3. That's when I made up my mind. I would run, too. I'd run on Willow Road, which goes by the end of our block. And I'd outfit myself in a pair of white shorts, sneakers and a sweat shirt. I'd have the right clothes, so I wouldn't look silly.

3、我就是從那時起下定決心的。我也要跑步，我可以在柳條街上跑步。那條街是我們街盡頭處的橫街，我得買一條白短褲，一雙運動鞋和一件圓領長袖運動衫打扮一下，我穿上合適的服裝，就不會顯得傻氣了。

4. To begin with, I decided to run up Willow Road as far as the Emersons' house. That was about a mile.

4、我決定開始時跑到柳條街上埃默生家的房子那兒。大約有一英里遠。

5. By the time I got to the end of our block, my legs had turned to stone. And I felt as if somebody had lit a campfire in my chest! I limped on for another hundred yards. The thing to do, I decided, was to stop as soon as I came to a good place for a rest. At once I said to myself, "This looks like a good place !" And I fell, panting, to the earth.

5、我跑到我們這條街盡頭的時候，腿像石頭一樣又硬又重。我覺得好像有人在我的胸膛裏點了一堆篝火!我又跛着向前跑了100碼。我想，這時該做的`事是一旦找到一個適於休息的地方就停下來休息。我馬上對自己説：“這兒看上去是個好地方!”就氣喘吁吁地癱倒在地上。

6. After some time, I sat up. "You're out of shape," I told myself. "You've got to work up to things bit by bit. Give yourself time!"

6、過了—一會，我坐了起來。我告誡自己，“你久不鍛鍊，競技狀態不佳，得慢慢加碼才行。給自己一點時間吧!”

7、我站起身，走着回家了。

8. Every morning for three weeks, Mondays through Fridays, I burst from my house and ran toward the Emerson place. I went a bit further every time. Weekends I rested up. Finally, I decided that I was ready to run the whole mile. Of course, I'd stop a few times along the route to rest.

8、在三週的時間裏，從週一到週五的每天早晨我都從家門衝出，向埃默生家方向跑去，每天將距離拉長一點。週末我就休息。我終於決定可以跑完這一英里的里程了，當然，中途我得停下來休息幾次。

9. I made the big push on Saturday. That was a mistake. I had forgotten that the neighborhood children would not be in school that day.

9、星期六我發起了猛攻。那是一個錯誤的決定。我忘記了街坊的孩子們那天不上學。
