The Industrial Revolution was at hand. 4 The economic collapse of Americanprosperity, called the Panic of 1837, still lay ahead. This was also the literary period later calledthe“New England Renaissance ”

Eight people lived together there . He had four brothers and sisters. A slavegirl lived with them too.
As a boy, Mark Twain caused much trouble for his parents. He used to play practical jokes on allof his friends and neighbors. The nature of his jokes often led to violence . He hated to go toschool, and he constantly ran away from home. He always went in the direction of the nearbyMississippi. He was fascinated by that mighty river. He liked to sit on the bank of the river forhours at a time and just gaze at the mysterious islands and the passing boats and rafts. Hewas nearly drowned nine different times. He learned many things about the river during thosedays. He learned all about its history and the unusual people who rode up and down5 it. Henever forgot those scenes and those people. He later made them part of the history of Americain his books Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn6.

密西西比河上的舵手
這位聲名顯赫的人物12 歲前在一所由原木搭建的小木屋學(xué)校上學(xué), 他的正規(guī)教育僅 此而已。盡管如此, 他仍成為他那一代最著名的文學(xué)家。
馬克· 吐溫, 1835 年出生于密蘇里州的一個(gè)小村莊, 靠近密西西比河。那時(shí), 安德 魯· 杰克遜是這個(gè)國(guó)家的總統(tǒng)。亞伯拉罕· 林肯仍是伊利諾斯州的一位年輕的農(nóng)場(chǎng)工人。 第一條鐵路七年前就已建成。第一次工業(yè)革命迫在眉睫。美國(guó)繁榮經(jīng)濟(jì)的崩潰, 即“ 1837 年大恐慌”, 也即將發(fā)生。這也是后來(lái)在文學(xué)史上被稱為“ 新英格蘭文藝復(fù)興”的時(shí)期。
馬克· 吐溫從小體弱多病。事實(shí)上, 誰(shuí)也沒(méi)料到他能活過(guò)第一個(gè)冬天。然而, 在母親 的悉心照料下, 他還是活了下來(lái)。馬克· 吐溫出生在一幢僅兩室的狹小木屋里。那屋里擠了 八口人, 他有四個(gè)兄弟姐妹, 還有一個(gè)奴隸和他們一起住。
馬克· 吐溫小時(shí)候給父母惹了很多麻煩。他老是對(duì)他所有的朋友和鄰居制造惡作劇。 他的惡作劇常常招來(lái)一頓暴打。他討厭上學(xué), 還不斷地從家里跑出來(lái), 總是朝著附近的密 西西比河方向走去。馬克· 吐溫被那條浩瀚壯觀的河流迷住了: 他喜歡在岸邊一坐幾個(gè)小 時(shí), 目不轉(zhuǎn)睛地盯著一個(gè)個(gè)神秘的島嶼和過(guò)往的船只與竹筏。有九次他都差點(diǎn)溺水而亡。 在那些日子里, 馬克· 吐溫學(xué)了很多有關(guān)這條河的知識(shí), 了解了它的歷史和河上來(lái)來(lái)往往 不同尋常的人。他永遠(yuǎn)都忘不了那些景色和那些人。后來(lái), 馬克· 吐溫把那一切作為美國(guó) 歷史的一部分寫進(jìn)了他的著作《湯姆· 索耶歷險(xiǎn)記》和《哈克貝里· 費(fèi)恩歷險(xiǎn)記》。
