英语翻译
We had wanted,we had wanted—oh,who knew what we’d been looking for?We had wanted blood,crushed bones,howls of agony.We had wanted buildings crumbling onto streets,cars bursting into flame.We had wanted monstrous versions of ourselves with enlarged heads on stalklike necks,merciless polished robots armed with death rays.We had wanted noble lords of the universe with kind,soft eyes,who would usher in a glorious new era.We had wanted terror and ecstasy—anything but this yellow dust.Had it even been an invasion?Later that afternoon,we learned that scientists all agreed:the dust was a living thing.Samples had been flown to Boston,Chicago,Washington,D.C.The single-celled organisms appeared to be harmless,though we were cautioned not to touch anything,to keep the windows shut,to wash our hands.The cells reproduced by binary fission.They appeared to do nothing but multiply.

译文:我们想得到什么?我们想看到人们流血挣扎,发出痛苦的嚎叫.我们想看到街上的建筑都倒塌,汽车都发生爆炸.我们想看到自己变成超大型的完美无情的大头细脖子的机器人,并且装备了能杀人的激光武器.我们想看到和善仁慈的上帝带领我们进入新的更加美好的时代.我们想体验恐怖和疯狂.但是,我们绝不想见到这种黄色的微粒.这难道不是对我们的侵犯吗?那天下午,我们的科学家证实:这种微粒具有生命.样本已用飞机送去波士顿,芝加哥,华盛顿.这种单细胞生物看起来好像没有危害,不过科学家们警告我们不要接触类似的任何东西,把窗户关好,把手洗干净.这种生物通过二分裂的方式繁殖.它们看起来没什么但危害却是巨大的.
