<漢譯英>

中文原文:

止謗莫如自修

張恨水先生曾寫過一篇《為人應當接受批評》,他說:“生平很少和人打筆墨官司,就是人家指出我的名姓來教訓一頓,我也不曾回復一個字。這樣做,我并非怯懦,也并非過分的容忍。我有個感想,我錯了,止謗莫如自修。我不錯,最好借事實來答復。這是一個辦法,也許不適合他人,但至少我自己,在做人上糾正了不少錯誤。而三十年來的寫作生涯,略有寸進,一大半也就是根據(jù)別人的批評而得的?!?恨水先生對待批評的態(tài)度,很值得當今文化人學習。

參考譯文:

Mr.Zhang Henshui once wrote up A Man Should Accept Criticisms. In this article, he said, "I seldom deliver paper arguments with people and even write a single word in retort when someone launches a criticism by mentioning my name.

Neither does this mean that I am weak, nor over tolerant. I think if I did something wrong, the better way to against defaming is to do self-examination; if it's not my fault, I'd rather air my opinions based on the fact. This may be not practical for other people, but at least it helps me a lot on behaving myself. During the life of my over thirty years writting, some progress I have made mostly benefits from others' criticisms."

Mr.Zhang's attitude to criticism is well worthy of intellectuals’ following.
