Daddy Long Legs(excerpt)
24th July
Dearest Daddy-Long-Legs,
　　I’ve finished the second draft of my book and am going to begin the third tomorrow morning at half past seven. It’s the sweetest book you ever saw—it is, truly. I think of nothing else. I can barely wait in the morning to dress and eat before beginning; then I write and write and write till suddenly I’m so tired that I’m limp all over. Then I go out with Colin (the new sheep dog) and romp through the fields and get a fresh supply of ideas for the next day. It’s the most beautiful book you ever saw—Oh, pardon—I said that before.
You don’t think me conceited, do you, Daddy dear?
I’m not, really, only just now I’m in the enthusiastic stage. Maybe later on I’ll get cold and critical and sniffy. No, I’m sure I won’t! This time I’ve written a real book. Just wait till you see it.
I’ll try for a minute to talk about something else. I never told you, did I, that Amasai and Carrie got married last May? They are still working here, but so far as I can see it has spoiled them both. She used to laugh when he tramped in mud or dropped ashes on the floor, but now—you should hear her scold! And she doesn’t curl her hair any longer. Amasai, who used to be so obliging about beating rugs and carrying wood, grumbles if you suggest such a thing. Also his neckties are quite dingy—black and brown, where they used to be scarlet and purple. I’ve determined never to marry. It’s a deteriorating process, evidently.
There isn’t much of any farm news. The animals are all in the best of health. The pigs are unusually fat, the cows seem contented and the hens are laying well. Are you interested in poultry? If so, let me recommend that invaluable little work, 200 Eggs per Hen per Year. I am thinking of starting an incubator next spring and raising broilers. You see I’m settled at Lock Willow permanently. I have decided to stay until I’ve written 114 novels like Anthony Trollope’s mother. Then I shall have completed my life work and can retire and travel.
Mr James McBride spent last Sunday with us. Fried chicken and ice-cream for dinner, both of which he appeared to appreciate. I was awfully glad to see him; he brought a momentary reminder that the world at large exists. Poor Jimmie is having a hard time peddling his bonds. The ’Farmers’ National’ at the Corners wouldn’t have anything to do with them in spite of the fact that they pay six per cent interest and sometimes seven. I think he’ll end up by going home to Worcester and taking a job in his father’s factory. He’s too open and confiding and kind-hearted ever to make a successful financier. But to be the manager of a flourishing overall factory is a very desirable position, don’t you think? Just now he turns up his nose at overalls, but he’ll come to them.
I hope you appreciate the fact that this is a long letter from a person with writer’s cramp. But I still love you, Daddy dear, and I’m very happy.
Yours as always,
Judy
导语: 在一家孤儿院中长大的少女Judy受人资助上了大学。然而她一直都不知道资助她的人是谁, 她只见过他的背影, 知道他是一个高个子的长腿男人, 因此她开玩笑似地称他为“长腿叔叔”。

1. romp 　　　　　　　vi. 嬉笑玩闹
2. conceited adj. 自负的
3. sniffy adj. 自命不凡的
4. obliging adj. 乐于助人的; 热情的

6. flourishing adj. 繁荣的

《长腿叔叔》(节选)
七月二十四日
最亲爱的长腿叔叔:
我已经完成我的书的第二份草稿, 明天早上七点半开始要写第三份。这将会是你读过最棒的书——真的。现在我满脑子只有我的书。我简直等不及早上起床穿衣吃早饭, 然后开始写写写。我要一直写到累得不能动, 四肢瘫软无力为止。然后我要跟科林(新来的牧羊犬)出去, 跟着它一起在田里奔跑玩耍, 在脑中注入明天可以用的新想法。这会是你见过最美丽的书了——噢, 不好意思——我之前说过了。
你不会觉得我很自大吧, 亲爱的长腿叔叔?
我并不自大, 只是现在处于一个极度热切的阶段。也许之后我会冷静下来, 变得又挑剔又不屑。不, 我相信我不会的! 这次我要写出一本真正的书, 你等着瞧吧。
现在我来试着告诉你一些我的书以外的事情。我没有跟你提过阿玛赛和卡丽去年五月结婚了吧? 他们依然在此工作, 但就我所见婚姻这件事把他们的关系搞坏了。以前当他踩到烂泥巴进屋子或是把屋子弄脏, 她都是哈哈笑着, 但现在——你真该听听她是怎么骂他的! 她再也不卷头发了。以前阿玛赛总是心甘情愿地打毯子搬木头, 现在如果你叫他做这些事他会咕哝个不停。现在他的领带颜色多么灰暗啊——不是黑色就是棕色——他以前可都是打红色或紫色领带的。我已经决定绝不走入婚姻。很显然那是一个恶化的过程。
农场没有什么新鲜事。动物都健壮无比。猪异常肥大, 奶牛似乎十分满足, 而母鸡也都乖乖地下蛋。你对家禽有兴趣吗? 如果有, 容我推荐最有价值的小生意, 每只母鸡每年可以下两百个蛋。明年春天我想弄个孵化器和饲养肉鸡。你瞧我已经在柳树农场永远安顿下来了。我决定在这儿待到我写完一百一十四本小说, 像安东尼·特罗洛普的母亲一样多产。届时我一生的工作已经完成, 我可以退休然后去旅行。
上个周日吉米·麦克白先生和我们一起度过。晚餐是炸鸡和冰淇淋, 两者似乎他都很喜欢。我很高兴见到他; 他让我短暂想起外面的大世界是存在着的。可怜的吉米卖债券卖得很辛苦。国家农民银行并不想跟他买债券, 即使利率有六分, 有时候是七分。我想最后他会回到伍斯特, 在他父亲的工厂工作。他太坦白、真诚、好心了, 不可能成为一个成功的金融家。在一个蓬勃的工作服工厂当一个经理人是一份不错的工作, 你不觉得吗? 现在的他对工作服感到不屑, 但有一天他会回心转意的。
我想你会感激这封信出自一个勤于写作而肩膀酸痛的作家之手。我还是爱你的, 亲爱的长腿叔叔, 而且我很快乐。
你永远的,
茱蒂
