新视野英语读写教程2 第一单元麦当劳的翻译··
第一家麦当劳餐馆
虽说第一家麦当劳餐馆只售汉堡和薯条,它还是成为一种文化象征。如今,在加州南部唐尼市,人们正努力保住历史上第一家麦当劳餐馆。然而,麦当劳却称这幢房子应该拆掉。
坐落于加州唐尼的这家餐馆建于1953年,是美国所有带双拱形金色标志的建筑中历史最久的,它的设计也是麦当劳最早的建筑设计。
许多人对于那家老餐馆有着美好的回忆。这些人想到餐馆连同他们的美好回忆一起将被摧毁,感到很气愤。
麦当劳方面解释说,那家老店在一次地震中遭到损坏,因此必须拆掉。不过,唐尼的许多人却不同意这种说法。
有位女士说,“ 我认为这种说法令人讨厌。他们在利用那次地震作借口。这是一个极大的谎言。”
另一位唐尼市民说:“ 我非常难过。他们一点也不尊重公众的意见,甚至都没试着这样做。他们可以稍加修理,使它再成为一家好餐馆。”
麦当劳的经理们说餐馆设在那个位置一直在亏本。那儿没有地方可以开辟“免下车外卖窗口”,里面也没有地方安排堂吃座位。他们说,那次地震后这个餐馆就没办法修了。不过那些经理们想在其他位置按原餐馆再仿造一家。
但是房屋检修人员说该建筑是可以修理的,不过费用昂贵。许多人说这个费用麦当劳当然承受得起。有人认为麦当劳想关闭这家餐馆的真正原因与金钱无关。
现代的麦当劳餐馆常常有一个牌子,声称有个叫雷克罗克的男人于1955年在伊利诺州开张了首家麦当劳餐馆。然而事实是,克罗克先生的快餐生意实际上是从唐尼市的迪克麦当劳和麦克麦当劳那里学来的。后来克罗克先生买下了他们的餐馆。因此,尽管公司竭力否认,唐尼镇的许多人还是认为麦当劳是想篡改历史。
在当地的历史学家看来,这种解释颇有道理。有位历史学家说:“历史不容篡改。雷克罗克没有创建麦当劳。创建麦当劳的是麦氏兄弟。
这些天来,一组历史学家希望将该处建筑列入国家历史文物保护单位名册,这样,唐尼镇就能使麦当劳免遭拆除。麦当劳的经理们非常恼火,因而将房屋弃置一旁。
人人都希望麦当劳经理们与唐尼的居民很快达成一致。房子仍在,但窗子用木板封了起来。即便如此,人们仍开车来纪念他们的麦当劳,想抢在它被拆除前拍照留念,留下历史上的珍贵一刻。

我曾在《实用翻译教程》(范仲英著第36页)上看到他是这样翻译的:An Unabridged,Comprehensive Dictionary.
具体理由请看原文,据说他是征求了美籍专家ChistopherP.Cynar和英籍专家Jean H. Haedy的意见后这样翻译的.
