Before she had anchored, the men from the boats had climbed on board
大船还未下锚。小船上的人就纷纷爬上客轮。
and the decks were soon covered with colourful rugs from Persia, silks from India, copper coffee pots, and beautiful handmade silverware.
一会儿工夫,甲板上就摆满了色彩斑斓的波斯地毯。印度丝绸。铜咖啡壶以及手工制作的漂亮的银器。
It was difficult not to be tempted.
要想不为这些东西所动心是很困难的。
Many of the tourists on board had begun bargaining with the tradesmen,

I had no sooner got off the ship than I was assailed by a man who wanted to sell me a diamond ring.
我刚下船,就被一个人截住,他向我兜售一枚钻石戒指。
I had no intention of buying one, but I could not conceal the fact that I was impressed by the size of the diamonds.
我根本不想买,但我不能掩饰这样一个事实:其钻石之大给我留下了深刻的印象。
Some of them were as big as marbles.
有的钻石像玻璃球那么大。
The man went to great lengths to prove that the diamonds were real.

As we were walking past a shop, he held a diamond firmly against the window and made a deep impression in the glass.
我们路过一家商店时,他将一颗钻石使劲地往橱窗上一按,在玻璃上留下一道深痕。
It took me over half an hour to get rid of him.
我花了半个多小时才摆脱了他的纠缠。
The next man to approach me was selling expensive pens and watches.
向我兜售的第二个人是卖名贵钢笔和手表的。
I examined one of the pens closely.
我仔细察看了一枝钢笔,
It certainly looked genuine.
那看上去确实不假,
At the base of the gold cap, the words made in the U.S.A had been neatly inscribed.
金笔帽下方整齐地刻有“美国制造”字样。
The man said that the pen was worth $50, but as a special favour, he would let me have it for $30.
那人说那支笔值50英镑,作为特别优惠,他愿意让我出30英镑成交。
I shook my head and held up five fingers indicating that I was willing to pay $5.
我摇摇头,伸出5根手指表示我只愿出5镑钱。
Gesticulating wildly, the man acted as if he found my offer outrageous, but he eventually reduced the price to $10.
那人激动地打着手势,仿佛我的出价使他不能容忍。但他终于把价钱降到了10英镑。
Shrugging my shoulders, I began to walk away when, a moment later, he ran after me and thrust the pen into my hands.
虽然他绝望地举起双手,但他毫不迟疑地收下了我付给他的5镑钱。
I felt especially pleased with my wonderful bargain -- until I got back to the ship.
在回到船上之前,我一直为我的绝妙的讨价还价而洋洋得意。
No matter how hard I tried, it was impossible to fill this beautiful pen with ink and to this day it has never written a single world!
然而不管我如何摆弄,那枝漂亮的钢笔就是吸不进墨水来。直到今天,那枝笔连一个字也没写过!
