Part II English-Chinese Translation (20%)

Please translate the following paragraphs into Chinese.

A week later Mother took a job selling dry goods at half the salary the radio station had offered. “It’s a job I can do,” she said simply. But the evening practice sessions on the old green typewriter continued. I had a very different feeling now when I passed her door at night and heard her tapping away. I knew there was something more going on in there than a woman learning to type. When I left for college two years later, Mother had an office job with better pay and more responsibility I have to believe that in some strange way she learned as much from her moment of defeat as I did, because several years later, when I had finished school and proudly accepted a job as a newspaper reporter, she had already been a journalist with our hometown paper for six months. The old green typewriter sits in my office now, unrepaired. It is a memento, but what it recalls for me is not quite what it recalled for Mother. When I’m having trouble with a story and think about giving up or when I start to feel sorry for myself and think things should be easier for me, I roll a piece of paper into that cranky old machine and type, word by painful word, just the way Mother did. What I remember then is not her failure, but her courage, the courage to go ahead. It’s the best memento anyone ever gave me.

一个星期后，母亲带一个卖纺织品的工作，工资的一半电台提供了。“这是我的工作可以做，”她简单地说。但是晚上练习的老绿打字机继续。我有一个非常不同的感觉，当我晚上走过她的房间时，听见她打字的声音。我知道有更多的东西去那里比女人学习类型。

当我离开大学两年后，母亲有一个办事处，薪水更高的工作和更多的责任，我相信，在一些奇怪的方式，她学会了尽可能多的从她的挫败的时候和我一样，因为几年后，当我完成了学校的骄傲地接受一份工作作为一个记者，她已经是一个记者，我的家乡纸六个月。

那台绿色旧打字机现在在我的办公室，未。它是一件纪念品，但它所给我带来的回忆不仅仅是对妈妈的回忆。当我有困难的故事，想放弃时，或者当我开始为自己感到遗憾，并认为这些事情应该容易多了，我卷起一张纸，脾气暴躁的老机和类型，痛苦的字，就像母亲。我所记得的不是她的失败，而是她的勇气，那种一往无前的勇气。 这是最好的纪念品。
