    如果说《小妇人》里的四个女孩都是天真善良、美丽勇敢的天使,那她们的母亲马奇太太就是让这群天使自由飞翔的翅膀。她总是通过不动声色的教育去感化四个女孩,用自己的言行去影响她们,随时给孩子们播下善良和爱的种子,她们学会了自尊自爱,宽容勇敢。

    润物无声

    今天读完了第十一章Experiment. 这一章讲到的是四个姐妹在假期里慵懒地打发时光,Meg觉得日子过得沉闷,自己开始捣鼓裁剪活结果把衣服剪坏了;Jo整天看书,直到两眼昏花,开始厌倦和烦躁;Beth老是忘记了这几天“光玩不用工作”,时不时回到老套路,但却总被扰乱了宁静;Amy因为姐姐们丢下她,而自己的玩资又不多,这几天沉浸于充满快乐但又烦恼和烦闷的生活中。

    最爱的Jo

    当马奇太太看到这一切时,机智地设计了一个实验,让四个女孩充分体会玩乐的后果。Jo邀请隔壁男孩Laurie来家中做客,用心地准备晚餐,却错把糖当成了盐,做出来的冰淇淋都是酸的。最后,晚餐很失败,家里也全部乱套了,大家都筋疲力尽。

    马奇太太在实验结束后,对四个女孩说了以下一番话。

    Yes, I want you to see how the comfort of all depends on each doing her share faithfully. While Hannah and I did your work, you got on pretty well, though I don’t think you were very happy or amiable. So I thought, as a little lesson, I would show you what happens when everyone thinks only of herself. Don’t you feel that it is pleasanter to help one another, to have daily duties which make leisure sweet when it comes, and to bear and forbear, that home may be comfortable and lovely to us all?

    对,我想让你们明白,大家的舒适生活取决于我们都能够承担各自的责任。尽管我和汉娜做了你们的工作,你们的生活一切顺利,但我想你们并没有很开心,很亲切。所以,这次实验作为一个小小的教训,我想让你们看到,如果每个人都自私自利,那将会发生什么。互相帮助,承担责任,让闲暇生活变得甜美,学会忍耐克制,这样我们才能拥有一个温暖舒适的家,是不是?

    笑容灿烂
    Then let me advise you to take up your little burdens again, for though they seem heavy sometimes, they are good for us, and lighten as we learn to carry them. Work is wholesome, and there is plenty for everyone. It keeps us from ennui and mischief, is good for health and spirits, and gives us a sense of power and independence better than money or fashion.

    我建议你们重新承担自己的责任,虽然这些责任有时看起来很沉重,但他们对我们有益的,在学着承担责任的过程中,责任就逐渐减轻了。工作有益于身心健康,每个人都有很多工作。工作让我们远离倦怠和无聊,有益于健康和心灵,比金钱和时尚更能赋予我们力量,让我们学会独立。

    独立坚强
    Very good! Then I am quite satisfied with the experiment, and fancy that we shall not have to repeat it, only don’t go to the other extreme and delve like slaves. Have regular hours for work and play, make each day both useful and pleasant, and prove that you understand the worth of time by employing it well. Then youth will be delightful, old age will bring few regrets, and life become a beautiful success, in spite of poverty.

    很好!那我对这次实验非常满意,我想我们不用再重复一次,不必进行极端的实验,把自己弄的像奴隶一样。每天有固定的时间工作,玩耍,让每天的生活都具有意义,又充满欢乐,那么你就充分利用时间,懂得时间的价值。这样的话,青春就是愉悦的,老去时也不会有很多遗憾;虽然贫穷,生活也是一次漂亮的成功。

    貌美如花

    马奇太太用睿智地利用实验的方法,让孩子们体会到责任心和工作的意义。四个女孩最终也明白,安逸的生活并不会带来真正的快乐,生活中需要承担自己的责任,在家庭中分担一部分自己的工作,才能够维持一个温馨舒适的家。
