英语翻译
如下
I have this old clock that belonged to my mom.My dad gave it to me years ago after mom passed
away.
I have mixed feelings about having the clock.I love it because it was my mom's,but it also holds
some bad memories.
You see,it chimes.It counts out the hour and rings once on the half hour.Or at least it used to.Now
you never know what number it will ring.
When my mother was at home dying from cancer,she asked for the clock to be unplugged.Hearing
the hours count down really angered and frightened her.
Mom passed away.I decided I wanted to get the clock fixed so I could remember the good hours
we had with her.
I took it to a local clock shop the other day.
"I know this has no particular value as a clock,but it was my mom's and I need to get it fixed," I said
to the shop owner.
I went on to describe the problem.
"We get a lot of these in," he told me."Here's what I do.We remove the clock works (机件) and
replace it with a battery-operated movement (机芯) that chimes electronically," he told me.
"You can't fix this?"
"No,we don't have the time nor the parts."
I thanked him and went home.I called a few other places and was told the same thing.
"How incredibly sad," I told the last one disappointedly.
How incredibly sad that we have become a society that replaces craftsmanship with convenience
and easy fixes.We copy the original instead of creating something new.We duplicate (复制); we don't
originate (发明).
Sadly,the same goes for our attitude to life itself.
Each of us is an original,one of a kind.But we find it so much easier to copy another style than to
develop our own.
We are wannabes (崇拜别人的人) rather than hey-world-look-at-mes.
We fail to see the real value in who we are,so we spend our lives trying to be someone else.

翻译如下：
我有一个钟,它是属于我妈妈的.在妈妈去世几年后爸爸把它给了我.
我对这个钟有着很各种复杂的感觉.我喜欢它因为它是妈妈的东西,但同时这个钟给我不好的回忆.
你看,它会报时.它每半个小时都会响一次,至少它以前是这样的,但现在的话你永远不会知道它会在什么时候响.
当妈妈还在家饱受癌症的折磨时,她要求给把钟的栓拔了不让它工作,因为听到钟滴答走会让她又生气又害怕.
妈妈去世后,我决定要修好这个钟,为了让自己能记住和妈妈一起曾经度过的美好时光.
前些天我把钟带去一家本地的钟表店.
我对店主说：“我知道这个钟本身没什么特别价值,但因为它是我妈妈的东西,所以我想要修好它.”
接着我继续跟店主描述这个钟有什么问题.
店主告诉我：“我们这里有很多电子机芯.现在我会这么做,我用一个会电子报时的电池操作机芯把钟里原本的机件替换掉.”（这句可能会有不对）
“你不能修好它?”
"不行,我们没有时间而且也没有需要的零件.“
跟店主道谢后我就回家了.我给好多其它地方致电,但得到的是相同的答案.
“真是太令人伤心了.“我失望地对最后一个人说.
真是令人太伤心了,这个社会变得贪图方便和容易修理而忘记手工艺.我们只是复制原始的事物而不发明新东西.我们复制,我们不发明.
可悲的是,连我们的生活态度也变得如此.
我们每个人都是原始的,独一无二的.但是,我们会很轻易地去效仿别人的风格,而不是发掘自己的风格.
我们是崇拜别人的人多于是那种让别人欣赏自己的人.
我们看不到自己的价值,所以我们把生活用在尝试成为别人.
大概就这样吧,不是百分百准确.题目答案的话我觉得是C,D,第3题不完整答不上了.
