Lesson 69 But not murder!并非谋杀！

I was being tested for a driving licence for the third time. I had been asked to drive in heavy traffic and had done so successfully. After having been instructed to drive out of town, I began to acquire confidence. Sure that I had passed, I was almost beginning to enjoy my test. The examiner must have been pleased with my performance, for he smiled and said,‘Just one more thing, Mr. Eames. Let us suppose that a child suddenly crosses the road in front of you. Assoon as I tap on the window, you must stop within five feet.’ I
continued driving and after some time, the examiner tapped loudly. Though the sound could be heard clearly, it took me a long time to react. I suddenly pressed the brake pedal hard and we were both thrown forward. The examiner looked at me sadly.‘Mr. Eames,’he said, in a mournful voice,‘you have just killed that child!’

Notes on the text 课文注释

1 driving licence,驾驶执照。

2 After having been instructed to drive out of town,在接到把车开出城的指令后。介词 after后面接动名词完成式的被动结构，整个介词短语作时间状语，相当于一个时间状语从句 After I had been instructed to….

3 Sure that I had passed,确信我已通过考试，sure的前面省略了 Being。

4 The examiner must have been pleased,主考人对我的驾驶想必是满意的。这里用 must+have+过去分词来对过去的事情表示推测。

5 in a mournful voice,用悲伤的声调。

参考译文

我第3次接受驾驶执照考试。按照要求在车辆拥挤的路上驾驶，我圆满地完成了。在接到把车开出城的指令后，我开始有了信心。确信我已通过考试，所以我几乎开始喜欢起这次考试。主考人对我的驾驶想必是满意的，因为他微笑着说：“埃姆斯先生，只剩1项了。让我们假设一个小孩子突然在你前面穿过马路。我一敲车窗，你必须把车停在5英尺之内。”我继续往前开着。过了一会儿，主考人砰砰地敲了起来。虽然声音听得很清楚，但我过了好一会儿才作出反应。我突然用力踩紧刹车踏板，结果我俩的身体都向前冲去。主考人伤心地看着我。“埃姆斯先生，”他以悲伤的声调说，“你刚刚把那个小孩压死了！”
