帮你找到的翻译 谢原po《那个出租车司机所全部拥有的是一封信》 他一定是完全沉浸在阅读之中了，因为我不得不敲挡风玻璃来引起他的注意。 “您的车走不走？”当他最后抬起头看我时我问道。他点头，继而我在后座坐好后他说道：“抱歉，我刚才正在读一封信”。他的声音听起来好像得了感冒什么的。 “我不着急”，我对他说。“那继续看完你的信吧。” 他摇了摇头。“我已经读了好多遍了。我想我几乎都能背下来了。” “来自家人的信总是意味深长。”我说到“至少对我来说是，因为我总是在旅途中。”接着，估计着他有六七十岁了，我猜道“是来自子女的还是孙辈？” “不是家人，”他回答道“尽管如此，”他又继续说“想来我们就好像是家人一样。老艾德是我最久的朋友了。实际上，我们以前总是称呼彼此‘老朋友’——当我们碰面时，就这样。我不怎么会写。” “我想并不是我们任何人都能很好地保持通信，” 我说“我知道我就这样。但我认为他是你认识了很久的某个人吧？” “几乎一辈子了。我们从孩子时就在一起，所以可是老交情了。” “一起上学？” “一直到高中。我们在同一个班级，实际是整个学年和高中”（此处没看太明白，翻译不一定准确） “还真没有那么多人有如此长久的友情，”我说到。 “实际上，”司机继续开着车，“在过去的二十五年到三十年里，我也就看见过他一两次。因为我从老的小区里搬走了，尽管没有忘，但联系自然就少了。他曾是个非常好的人” “你说曾经，那是什么意思？” 他点头道“几周以前去世了。” “真遗憾”，我说道“失去任何朋友都不是闹着玩的，况且失去一个真正的朋友更加痛苦。” 他没有回复，我们继续开着沉默了几分钟。但是当他再次开口差不多是对他自己而不是我说到“我本该保持联系的。”时，我意识到老艾德仍然在他的思绪之中。 “是啊，”我赞同着，“我们应该和老朋友保持联络的。但是一有事我们似乎就找不到时间了。” 他耸耸肩。“我们以前总是找寻那些时光”他说道“那些甚至在信中都提到了”。他把它递给我说“看看吧。” “谢谢，”我说道“但我不能读您的信件。那是隐私。” 司机耸了耸肩。“老艾德已经去世了，现在没什么隐私的了。看吧”，他劝我说。 信是用铅笔写的。用“老朋友”开头来问候，然后第一句话就让我想起了我自己。我已经好几次想写信了，但是我总是拖延。信里继续说道他经常想起他们一起住在同一个小区时的美好时光。提起了一些对司机可能有意义的某些事情，对诸如提姆打碎了窗户，拴住帕克老先生家的门的那个万圣节，还有卡尔弗女士总是放学后留我们。 “你们一定在一起度过了很久”，我对他说道。 “像那里面写道的，”他回答说“所有我们在那些日子里所要度过的就是时光”。他摇着头说“时光。” 我想接下来那一段他的信有点悲伤：我用“老朋友”开头因为我们成为老朋友已经很多年了。而我们之中剩下的人不多了。 “你知道，”我对他说“当说到我们剩下的人不多了这里，那绝对是真的。比如每次我去班级重聚时，的还在身边人越来越少。” “时光匆匆啊”，司机说道。 “你们俩原来在一个地方工作吗？”我问他。 “不，但是我们单身的时候总是在同一个地带游逛。而后来，我们都结婚了，我们仍然不时的去彼此的家中做客。但最近二三十年几乎仅仅是圣诞卡了。当然卡片上也经常会加上一些说明——经常是一些我们家庭的消息，就像你知道的，孩子在做什么啦，谁搬到了哪里啦，一个新诞生的孙辈啦，诸如那些事情——但是从没有一封真正的信或像那样的东西。” “这部分很好，”我说到。“说起你们多年以来的友谊，对我意味着很多，无法表达，因为我不善于那样言辞。”我发现自己在赞成地点着头。“那一定让你感觉很好，不是么？” 司机说起了一些我听不清楚的话来，因为他看起来哽咽住了，所以我继续道：“我想我是愿意收到来自我最久的朋友像那样的来信的。” 我们接近目的地了，所以我略读最后一段：所以我想你会想知道我有多么想你。并且那上面署名，你的朋友，汤姆。 当我们停在我的酒店时，我递回了信。“很高兴和您交谈，”我从车里取出了我的手提箱说到。汤姆？信的署名是汤姆？ “我想你的朋友叫艾德吧，”我说道“怎么署名是汤姆？” “这信并不是艾德写给我的，”他解释道“我是汤姆。这是我在我知道他死去以前写给他的。所以是我一直没有寄给他。” 他看起来有些悲伤的样子，好像在试着看远处的什么。“我想我本应该早点写的。” 当我回到酒店房间以后，我没有马上打开行李。首先我必须写一封信，并且寄出去。
