百万英镑：汉英对照The 1000000 Bank Note: A Chinese English Translation [Chinese]

By MA KE TU WEN

"A poor and destitute clerk, an American young man named Henry Adams, had an adventure in London. Two wealthy brothers in London made a bet to lend Henry an unrealizable million dollar bill and see how he would fare within a month. The one month deadline had passed, and Henry not only did not starve or be arrested, but also became a wealthy man and won the heart of a beautiful young lady. The article showcases satire and humor through its slightly exaggerated artistic techniques, exposing the materialism of early 20th century British society. It is an important work that cannot be ignored in Mark Twain's selection of works and is a classic short story.

一个穷困潦倒的办事员美国小伙子亨利-亚当斯在伦敦的一次奇遇。伦敦的两位富翁兄弟打赌，把一张无法兑现的百万大钞借给亨利，看他在一个月内如何收场。一个月的期限到了，亨利不仅没有饿死或被捕，反倒成了富翁，并且赢得了一位漂亮小姐的芳心。文章以其略带夸张的艺术手法展现讽刺与幽默，揭露了20世纪初英国社会的拜金主义思想，是马克-吐温作品精选中不可忽略的重要作品，是一部颇为经典的短篇小说。
