Passage:
I work in a university library. I’m a library aide which isn’t very high up the ladder in fact and on those organizational flow charts you get mine is the job put at the bottom of the page right in the corner. But I like my work which I know makes me luckier than a lot of people. There’s variety, and I get to meet some interesting people. In fact I meet people from places I wouldn’t even know where to look for on the map.There are periods of boredom however, skull-crushing, mind-numbing boredom. And summer is the worst, as you can imagine summer in a university library doesn’t exactly buzz. You might think that’s a bonus, especially if you’ve worked somewhere when at times there is almost nothing to do you can’t appreciate the sense of time creeping, the felling of sleepiness, the sheer physical dullness in the atmosphere and the sense of something like panic that sets in at the thought of yet another hour of trying to shelve from empty shelves or an hour standing at a desk waiting and hoping for readers to appear. But that only lasts two or three months until, suddenly, they’re back and the year starts again with its moments of frantic effort and spells of inactivity.There are a lot of misconceptions about library work—many of which I was guilty of before I started working in one. Most people think of it, when they think of it at all, for it seems to have this reputation as dull, as a nice, quiet almost charming job. Well, think again. At the sharp end it’s hard, heavy and sometimes dangerous work. And if you think I’m kidding about the dangerous part how about the risk of a heavy metal, very springy, hanging bookend flying out from the shelf into your face which has nearly happened to me more than once or a five or six pound book dropping on your head or your foot—both of which actually did happen to me. There are a lot of bruises, IT cuts—and dust.For all that I have to repeat I enjoy it. When it’s not dead quiet it’s hectic, the time flies and you get a good feeling of accomplishment. It’s a nice place to work, the students mainly are great and so, with one or two exceptions, are the academic staff we have to deal with. And there’s a good feeling among the staff, especially among us lowly, put at the foot of the page in the corner aides.参考译文:我在一所年夜学的藏书楼义务。作为一名藏书楼的助手,我的地位不是那么高,乃至在义务表上我的名字都在最下面的角落里。
可是我喜好我的义务,我以为这义务使我比良多人都幸运。我能见到各种百般风趣的人。毕竟上在我碰到的人中,有些来自我听都没听说过的中央。
可是偶尔候也会很无聊,令人无计可施、麻木的无聊。夏天是最忧伤的。你可以想象获得年夜学的藏书楼在夏天毫无气愤。你年夜概会以为这是件功德,尤其是在不断的义务的时候。可是你错了。除非你曾在某些中央义务,在那边你偶尔完全无事可做只能深切感触熏染时光的流逝,并且昏昏欲睡;在如许的情况下,你的身了解变得迟钝,一想到又要花一个小时往摆书架大概站在书桌前期待读者出现你就会感到惊骇,这些都不是你喜好的。可是这种情况只会继续两、三个月,突然门生们都返来了,新的学年又开始了,巨匠又从头投进到快节奏的糊口当中,偶尔也会有不活泼的时候。
关于藏书楼的义务有良多错误的看法——我对来此义务之前的一些设法感到很惭愧。年夜都人在想到这个义务的时候都以为这是份有些机器,可是惬意、恬静乃至有些诱人的义务。理想上这义务很难,并且沉重,偶尔另有危险。如果我以为我说危险是在开玩笑的话,那么挂在书架上的那么有弹性的金属书挡从书架上失落上去砸到你的脸上会如何?这种事差点发作在我身上可不止一次了;又大概是五、六磅重的书砸在你的头上大概脚上呢?这些在我身上都发作过。另有屡次的擦伤,被纸割伤——更不要说灰尘。
我照旧夸张我喜好这份义务。不暮气沉沉的时候便是重要忙碌的,时候过得飞快,你会很有成绩感。这是个义务的好中央,除了一般门生欠好关于之外,年夜部分的门生都很好,并且我们打仗的西席也都是搞学术的。和同事之间的相处感受也很好,尤其是我们这些名字都排在义务表角落里。
