經(jīng)典美文欣賞：咖啡加鹽

　　今生得到你是我最大的幸福，如果有來(lái)生，我還希望能娶到你，只是，我可不想再喝加鹽的咖啡了。下面是學(xué)習(xí)啦小編為大家?guī)?lái)英語(yǔ)經(jīng)典愛(ài)情美文：咖啡加鹽，希望大家喜歡!

　　They met with each other at a party, she was so young and beautiful, with many pursuers after her, while he was just an ordinary man. At the end of the party, he invited her to have coffee with him, which was to her great surprise, however, out of politeness, she accepted his invivation.

　　他和她相識(shí)在一個(gè)宴會(huì)上，那時(shí)的她年輕美麗，身邊有很多的追求者，而他卻是一個(gè)很普通的人因此，身邊當(dāng)宴會(huì)結(jié)束，他邀請(qǐng)她一塊去喝咖啡的時(shí)候，她很吃驚，然而，出于禮貌，她還是答應(yīng)。

　　Sitting in a nice cafe and not knowing what to talk about, they both felt very embarrassed, all she had in her mind was to end the date and go home.

　　坐在咖啡館里，兩個(gè)人之間的氣氛很是尷尬，沒(méi)有什么話題，她只想盡快結(jié)束，好回去。

　　When the waitress served them the coffee, he asked her to bring him some salt, telling the waitress that he had the habit of putting salt in the coffee. Stunned by his queer action, everyone in the cafe, including her, focused their eyes on him, which made him turn red. Soon the waitress gave him the salt, and he put in the salt and took sips. Her curiosity aroused, she asked, "How come such a habit?" He hesitated for a while before replying in a word-after-word way, "When I was a little kid, we lived by the seashore and I used to indulge myself in the sea. Every time there came the ocean wave, the sea water would found its way into my mouth, which was bitter and salty. I have been away from my family for a long time and I am missing it, and coffee with salt can remind me of the taste of the seawater and bring me closer to my hometown.

　　但是當(dāng)小姐把咖啡端上來(lái)的時(shí)候，他卻突然說(shuō):“麻煩你拿點(diǎn)鹽過(guò)來(lái)，我喝咖啡習(xí)慣放點(diǎn)鹽”，當(dāng)時(shí)，她都愣了，小姐也愣了，大家的目光都集中到了他身上，以至于他的臉都紅了。小姐把鹽拿過(guò)來(lái)了，他放了點(diǎn)進(jìn)去，慢慢地喝著。她是好奇心很重的女子，于是很好奇地問(wèn)他:“你為什么要加鹽呢?”，他沉默了一會(huì)，很慢的幾乎是一字一頓地說(shuō):“小時(shí)候，我家住在海邊，我老是在海里泡著，海浪打過(guò)來(lái)，海水涌進(jìn)嘴里，又苦又咸。我已經(jīng)很久沒(méi)回家了，非常想家，咖啡里加鹽，就算是想家的一種表現(xiàn)吧，以把距離拉近一點(diǎn)。”

　　All of a sudden, she was touched by the man, for it was the first time for her to hear a man telling her of his longings for home. In her eyes, a man with homesickness must be a domestic man, who will surely love his family. She had an urge to confide to him, about her hometown thousands of miles away. The cold and embarrassing atmosphere melted away for the time, and they talked for quite a while. That night, she agreed to let him walk her home.

　　她突然被打動(dòng)了，因?yàn)?，這是她第一次聽(tīng)到男人在她面前說(shuō)想家，她認(rèn)為，想家的男人必定是顧家的男人，而顧家的男人必定是愛(ài)家的男人。她忽然有一種傾訴的欲望，跟他說(shuō)起了她遠(yuǎn)在千里之外的故鄉(xiāng)，冷冰冰的氣氛漸漸變得融洽起來(lái)，兩個(gè)人聊了很久，并且，她沒(méi)有拒絕他送她回家。

　　After that special night, they dated frequently. She gradually got to know that he was a nice man, being magnanimous, attentive and considerate, which were the essential qualities she thought a remarkable man should possess. Deep down, she felt lucky for accepting his first invitation out of politeness, otherwise, she would have missed such a remarkable man. They later dated with each other in almost all the cafes in the city, where she would always take the lead to tell the waiter to get him some salt.

　　再以后，兩個(gè)人頻繁地約會(huì)，她發(fā)現(xiàn)他實(shí)際上是一個(gè)很好的男人，大度，細(xì)心，體貼，符合她所欣賞的所有的優(yōu)秀男人應(yīng)該具有的特性她暗自慶幸，幸虧當(dāng)時(shí)的禮貌，才沒(méi)有和他擦肩而過(guò))她帶他去遍了城里的每家咖啡館，每次都是她說(shuō):“請(qǐng)拿些鹽來(lái)好嗎?我的朋友喜歡咖啡里加鹽”

　　再后來(lái)，就像童話書(shū)里所寫(xiě)的一樣，“王子和公主結(jié)婚了，從此過(guò)著幸福的生活。”他們確實(shí)過(guò)得很幸福，而且一過(guò)就是40多年，直到他前不久得病去世故事似乎要結(jié)束了，如果沒(méi)有那封信的話。

　　As all the fairy tales go, the princess and the prince get married and lead a happy life ever since. And the story would have ended with the husband passing away after 40 years of happy life, nothing special if it were not for the letter the husband left for her.

　　那封信是他臨終前寫(xiě)的，寫(xiě)給她的:“原諒我一直都欺騙了你，還記得第一次請(qǐng)你喝咖啡嗎?當(dāng)時(shí)氣氛差極了，我很難受，也很緊張，我本想叫服務(wù)員拿糖來(lái)的，不知怎么想的，竟然對(duì)小姐說(shuō)拿些鹽來(lái)，其實(shí)我不加鹽的，當(dāng)時(shí)既然說(shuō)出來(lái)了，只好將錯(cuò)就錯(cuò)了。沒(méi)想到競(jìng)?cè)灰鹆四愕暮闷嫘?，沒(méi)辦法只好臨場(chǎng)編了這個(gè)故事，這一下，讓我喝了半輩子加鹽的咖啡.有好多次，我都想告訴你，可我怕你會(huì)生氣，更怕你會(huì)因此離開(kāi)我……現(xiàn)在我終于不怕了，因?yàn)槲揖鸵懒?，死人總是很容易被原諒的，?duì)不對(duì)?今生得到你是我最大的幸福，如果有來(lái)生，我還希望能娶到你，只是，我可不想再喝加鹽的咖啡了，你不知道，那味道有多難喝。”

　　The letter was written before his death, "My dearest, please forgive me for my cheating you all the time. Do you still remember our first date in the cafe? You know, the atmosphere was not very pleasant, and I was feeling terrible and nervous. I meant to ask the waitress to bring me the sugar, which came out to be the salt. I actually didn't go for the salt, but I had to go on with the mistake, which sparked your curiosity. I had no other choice but to make up the story I told you, which 1 had no idea would made me drink coffee with salt for the rest of my life. I didn't yield to my impulse to tell you the truth several times, because I didn't want to get you upset, I was even more afraid of you leaving me for that. I am relieved now, for I'm dying, and people all forgive the dying, right? I have been endowed with the greatest happiness in the world for marring you, and if I had a second life, I would choose you to be my wife again. There is only one thing I want to make sure, that is, I would never drink coffee with salt anymore, you never know how bitter it is!"

　　信的內(nèi)容讓她吃驚，同時(shí)有一種被騙的感覺(jué)。然而，他不知道，她多想告訴他:“她是多么高興，自己心愛(ài)的人，為了她，能夠作出這樣的一生一世的欺騙……”

　　She was shocked by the letter, with the feeling of being cheated. However, he would never know how strong her desire was to let him know that, she was just too happy to be cheated for her whole life by someone she loved so much.
