Episodio 3. Los Goya 2025: las películas que hicieron historia

你们不要忘记，我当时处在远离人烟千里之外的地方。
Remember, I had crashed in the desert a thousand miles from any inhabited region.
而这个小家伙给我的印象是，他既不像迷了路的样子，也没有半点疲乏、饥渴、惧怕的神情。
And yet my little man seemed neither to be straying uncertainly among the sands, nor to be fainting from fatigue or hunger or thirst or fear.
他丝毫不像是一个迷失在旷无人烟的大沙漠中的孩子。
Nothing about him gave any suggestion of a child lost in the middle of the desert, a thousand miles from any human habitation.
当我在惊讶之中终于又能说出话来的时候，对他说道：
When at last I was able to speak, I said to him:
唉，你在这儿干什么？
But– what are you doing here?
可是他却不慌不忙地好像有一件重要的事一般，对我重复地说道：
And in answer he repeated, very slowly, as if he were speaking of a matter of great consequence:
请…给我画一只羊
If you please– draw me a sheep.
当一种神秘的东西把你镇住的时候，你是不敢不听从它的支配的，
When a mystery is too overpowering, one dare not disobey.

在这旷无人烟的沙漠上，面临死亡的危险的情况下，尽管这样的举动使我感到十分荒诞，
Absurd as it might seem to me, a thousand miles from any human habitation and in danger of death,


我还是掏出了一张纸和一支钢笔。
I took out of my pocket a sheet of paper and my fountain-pen.


这时我却又记起，我只学过地理、历史、算术和语法，
But then I remembered how my studies had been concentrated on geography, history, arithmetic, and grammar,


就有点不大高兴地对小家伙说我不会画画。
and I told the little chap (a little crossly, too) that I did not know how to draw.
他回答我说：“没有关系，给我画一只羊吧！”
He answered me:“That doesn’t matter. Draw me a sheep.”
因为我从来没有画过羊，
But I had never drawn a sheep.
我就给他重画我所仅仅会画的两副画中的
So I drew for him one of the two pictures I had drawn so often.

那副闭着肚皮的巨蟒。
It was that of the boa constrictor from the outside.
我听了他的话，简直目瞪口呆。
And I was astounded to hear the little fellow greet it with.

不，不！我不要蟒蛇，它肚子里还有一头象。
No, no, no! I do not want an elephant inside a boa constrictor.
他接着说：“巨蟒这东西太危险，大象又太占地方。”
A boa constrictor is a very dangerous creature, and an elephant is very cumbersome.
我住的地方非常小，我需要一只羊。给我画一只羊吧。
Where I live, everything is very small. What I need is a sheep. Draw me a sheep.
我就给他画了。
So then I made a drawing.

TRANSCRIPTION (explanation included)

These expressions of gratitude traverse a spectrum of sincerity and formality. In the lexicon of everyday conversation, one might simply say "thank you," "thanks," or even add a casual "cheers" to express appreciation. When gratitude is deeply felt, phrases like "I'm sincerely grateful" and "I'm truly thankful" convey the depth of one's appreciation. In informal settings, a heartfelt thank you might be expressed with "you're a lifesaver" or "you're the best," adding a touch of camaraderie. For matters necessitating decorum, a formal approach may entail phrases like "I extend my heartfelt thanks" or "I wish to express my deepest gratitude," while emphasizing that kindness does not go unnoticed. Politeness tempers the thanks in expressions such as "I want to say thank you" and "your help means a lot to me," demonstrating genuine gratitude. A touch of wit adds a layer of playfulness to the gratitude, as seen in expressions like "I owe you one" or "you're a legend." In more refined circles, the upper class might communicate their gratitude with statements like "I'm most grateful" or "your assistance is greatly appreciated," maintaining an air of warmth. For royalty, gratitude is conveyed with grace and dignity, as in "your kindness has not gone unnoticed" or "you have my deepest thanks," underscoring the formal nature of the response. Ultimately, the choice of expression hinges on the context and the level of decorum required for the situation at hand.
