2021佛山一模读后续写翻译练习（——走路去上班）
沃尔特·约翰是来自阿拉巴马州霍姆伍德的一名20岁的大学生。
作为一个离家很远的大学生，他没有很多钱。
他不得不兼职工作以支付生活费用。
最近，他放弃了快餐行业的兼职工作，在一家名为Bellhops的搬家公司找到了一份新工作。
新工作的薪水更高了，约翰的工作时间也更灵活了，这让他能更专注于学习。
他想尽一切办法去争取这个新的工作机会，所以他想他必须尽最大的努力来确保他第一天一切顺利!但有时候，生活会出乎意料地打击你。
在约翰开始新工作的前一天，他的车坏了!由于他名下没有多少钱，他的汽车不能在修车厂修理。
他的朋友没有一个能送他去上班。
更糟糕的是，公共交通在他的工作时间没有运行。
如果他乘出租车，那将花费他一半的工资。
因此，他决定步行去公司。
为了能在早上六点前赶到那里，他认为最安全的办法是在午夜前离开。
约翰甚至挑战自己提前一个小时到达那里。
尽管这看起来是一段很长的路，约翰知道他有足够的健康去做。
这很有挑战性，但约翰知道这是可能的。
他抓起钱包和手机就离开了公寓。
他一走出门，就意识到在午夜的黑暗中独自行走是危险的。
此外，他还得穿过一片大树林和城市的许多街区。
因此，为了安全起见，他回去拿了一根蝙蝠(球棒)和一把菜刀。
万一有野兽或坏人袭击了他，至少他还有东西可以保护。
最后约翰开始了他的长途跋涉。
走了两个小时后，他来到了森林深处。
除了树木的沙沙声，树林里一片死寂。
他振作起来，紧紧抓住球棒。
突然，一声可怕的嗥叫，听起来像狼嗥，打破了寂静，吓坏了他。
他跳起来，以最快的速度跑着。
他没有停止奔跑，直到他看到远处一道闪光快速向他移动。
这时，一辆汽车越来越近。
约翰向汽车冲过去，挥手致意。
司机弗兰克注意到了他，摇下车窗，小心地问他为什么晚上一个人。
弗兰克听说森林里可能有狼，就提出让他搭便车。
约翰迅速地跳上车。
多亏了弗兰克的帮助，约翰终于在早上五点半到达了目的地。
太阳从地平线上冉冉升起，约翰的脸上洋溢着感激之情。
他感到精力充沛，迫不及待地开始。
答案：
沃尔特·约翰是来自阿拉巴马州霍姆伍德的一名20岁的大学生。
Walter John was a 20-year-old college student from Homewood, Alabama.
作为一个离家很远的大学生，他没有很多钱。
As a young man in college far away from home, he didn't have much money.
他不得不兼职工作以支付生活费用。
He had to work part-time to cover his living costs.
最近，他放弃了快餐行业的兼职工作，在一家名为Bellhops的搬家公司找到了一份新工作。
Recently he gave up his part-time job in the fast-food business and found a new one at a home-moving company called Bellhops.
新工作的薪水更高了，约翰的工作时间也更灵活了，这让他能更专注于学习。
The pay for his new job was higher, and John gained more flexibility with his hours, which allowed him to focus on his studies a bit more.
他想尽一切办法去争取这个新的工作机会，所以他想他必须尽最大的努力来确保他第一天一切顺利!
He wanted to do everything he could to secure this new employment opportunity, so he thought he had to try his best to make sure that everything would go well on his first day!
但有时候，生活会出乎意料地打击你。
But sometimes, life hits you unexpectedly.
在约翰开始新工作的前一天，他的车坏了!
A day before John began his new job, his car broke down!
由于他名下没有多少钱，他的汽车不能在修车厂修理。
With little money to his name, he couldn't have his car repaired at the garage.
他的朋友没有一个能送他去上班。
None of his friends were able to take him to work.
更糟糕的是，公共交通在他的工作时间没有运行。
What was worse, the public transportation was not running at his working time.
如果他乘出租车，那将花费他一半的工资。
If he took a taxi, it would cost him half his salary.
因此，他决定步行去公司。
Therefore, he decided to walk to the company.
为了能在早上六点前赶到那里，他认为最安全的办法是在午夜前离开。
In order to get there by six in the morning, he thought that the safest way would be to leave at midnight.
约翰甚至挑战自己提前一个小时到达那里。
John even challenged himself to arrive there one hour earlier.
尽管这看起来是一段很长的路，约翰知道他有足够的健康去做。
Even though it seemed like such a far walk, John knew he was fit enough to do it.
这很有挑战性，但约翰知道这是可能的。
This was challenging, but John knew it was possible.
他抓起钱包和手机就离开了公寓。
He grabbed his wallet and his phone and left his apartment.
他一走出门，就意识到在午夜的黑暗中独自行走是危险的。
As soon as he stepped out of the door, he realized that walking alone in the dark at midnight can be dangerous.
此外，他还得穿过一片大树林和城市的许多街区。
Moreover, he had to walk through a large wood as well as many blocks of the city.
因此，为了安全起见，他回去拿了一根蝙蝠(球棒)和一把菜刀。
Therefore, he went back to take a bat （球棒）and a kitchen knife for safety purposes.
万一有野兽或坏人袭击了他，至少他还有东西可以保护。
In case a wild animal or some bad person attacked him, at least he would have something for protection.
最后约翰开始了他的长途跋涉。
Finally John started his long walk.
走了两个小时后，他来到了森林深处。
Having trekked for two hours, he came to the deep forest.
除了树木的沙沙声，树林里一片死寂。
Besides the rustling of trees, the wood was in a deathly silence.
他振作起来，紧紧抓住球棒。
He quickened up and held onto the bat tightly.
突然，一声可怕的嗥叫，听起来像狼嗥，打破了寂静，吓坏了他。
Abruptly, a terrible howl, which sounded like a wolf, broke the silence and frightened him.
他跳起来，以最快的速度跑着。
He jumped to his feet and ran as fast as his legs could carry him.
他没有停止奔跑，直到他看到远处一道闪光快速向他移动。
He didn’t stop running until he saw a flash of light at a distance, moving quickly towards him.
这时，一辆汽车越来越近。
At that time, a car was drawing closer.
约翰向汽车冲过去，挥手致意。
John was dashing toward the car and waving.
司机弗兰克注意到了他，摇下车窗，小心地问他为什么晚上一个人。
The driver Frank, noticed him and rolled down the window, asking cautiously why he was alone at night.
弗兰克听说森林里可能有狼，就提出让他搭便车。
Hearing that there were probably wolves in the forest, Frank offered to give him a lift.
约翰迅速地跳上车。
John jumped in the car swiftly.
多亏了弗兰克的帮助，约翰终于在早上五点半到达了目的地。
Thanks to Frank’s help, John managed to reach the destination at 5:30 a.m..
