warmedto:使變熱至Back第29頁第29頁DaveBarry戴夫·巴瑞(1947—)是美國著名專欄作家，文字風趣風趣。1983年起至今，戴夫·巴瑞始終為《邁阿密先驅報》(MiamiHerald)撰稿，1988年其評論文章取得美國新聞界最高獎項——普利策獎。同時他也涉足小說寫作，美國CBS電視臺系列片Dave’sWorld就是依據他兩部小說改編。Back第30頁第30頁wartsandall在英語中，這個短語表示“盡管有各種缺點和瑕疵”之意。在本文中，作者一方面寫電腦帶來各種不快，另一方面指自己腿上長疣(wart)，一語雙關，詼諧風趣。Back第31頁第31頁Grouchoglasses格魯喬眼鏡（連有眉毛、髭須和假鼻子眼鏡，通常用于化妝舞會等場合。其來源也許與美國三四十年代喜劇明星格魯喬·馬克思（GrouchoMarks）相關，此人典型形象為濃眉、髭須、大鼻并戴眼鏡。）Back第32頁第32頁Para.1a我電腦——就像以前我有過所有電腦同樣——天天至少會來上一次某種類型情緒化故障，從無例外。它干脆停止工作了——經常是在我主線沒碰它時候——并在屏幕上顯示一條信息，告訴我發生了一個錯誤。BackTranslation學會愛電腦，疣以及一切戴夫·巴瑞第33頁第33頁Para.1b它不說是什么錯誤，也不說發生在哪里。說不定錯誤發生在新西蘭，我電腦通過互聯網發覺了它，并因此煩惱得無法繼續工作。BackTranslation第34頁第34頁BackTranslationPara.2在這種情形下，我只好關閉電腦再重新啟動。這樣做以后，電腦就在屏幕上打出一條傲慢無禮信息，告訴我它正在掃描磁盤中錯誤，而原因是我沒有正常關機。第35頁第35頁BackTranslationPara.3“可我什么也沒干呀!”我叫道。但電腦根本不睬我，由于它正忙著掃描它磁盤。要知道，一旦它發覺了任何錯誤，它就會怪到我頭上，盡管我連它磁盤在何方都不甚了了。第36頁第36頁BackTranslationPara.4a電腦忙著時候，我審閱我疣。我右腿上長了個疣，已有好些年了。我叫它巴迪老弟。我密切注視著巴迪，以防它外表有任何改變。我讀到過，疣外表上突變從醫學上看不是什么好事情。第37頁第37頁BackTranslationPara.4b假如我低頭看到巴迪變綠，不再好看了，或者戴上了一副小小格魯喬眼鏡，我會意識到該采用某種醫療行動了，比如戒酒。第38頁第38頁BackTranslationPara.5a但是我要說問題是，由于電腦古怪脾氣，我經常看到整整一個早上工作結果——有時候多達18個單詞——“嗶”一聲就永遠去了“丟失數據之星球”上了。不用說，我用是微軟視窗系統。從視窗第一版——這個版本要求用戶用彩色筆在屏幕上書寫——開始，我就是它忠實用戶。第39頁第39頁BackTranslationPara.5b大約每一年，微軟公司都會推出一個新版本并信誓旦旦地稱它更加好、更可靠，而我也總是照單全收。我買了視窗2.0版、視窗3.0版、視窗3.1415926版、視窗95版、視窗98版、視窗ME版、視窗RSVP版、最佳視窗版、視窗“又來了”版，以及視窗“讓我們大家為比爾·蓋茨買一座跟佛蒙特州同樣大房子”版。第40頁第40頁BackTranslationPara.6我電腦仍在不斷犯病，而我仍堅持購買各種視窗版本，希望自己能交上好運。我就像那個夜總會里晦氣蛋，不斷地去招惹那個辣妹。他鞋子已經被辣妹潑在他身上冰鎮果汁朗姆酒泡軟了，而他還在想：“她對我動心了！”第41頁第41頁BackTranslationPara.7我說這些是由于微軟又推出了新版本——視窗XP，每個人都說它是“有史以來最可靠視窗版本”。對我來說，這就像是說蘆筍是“所見到最好蔬菜”同樣。但我還是心動了。在和我巴迪老弟一起等待電腦掃描磁盤時候，我對它說：“也許這個版本行。”第42頁第42頁via
