火海生涯(英中对照)

古德明《征服英语》之英语军事故事，古德明，香港英语教育作家，他开了一个《征服英语专栏》，在专栏中专门用英语写了世界近代史上的军事小故事，用英语讲述历史中那些惊心动魄的战争。

火海生涯
in the battle of britain, the german luftwaffe subjected the british to a sustained air attack. cuthbert douse recalls helping to dig his grandmother out of a rubble in glasgow:"we had to dig with our hands but her arm was jammed by the windowsill. my father told me to turn away because the only way to get her out was to pull. he pulled three of her fingers off getting her out."
len jones recalls his experience in london:"the suction and compression from the high-explosive blasts just pulled and pushed you. you could feel your eyeballs being sucked out." bomb blast, people would learn, could rip victims limb from limb, or leave them unharmed but stripped naked.

when a parachute bomb smashed through the london palladium's roof to dangle, still live, in the wings, a naval officer defused it. he was rewarded with free tickets to the palladium for life.
不列颠战役之中，德国空军不断空袭英国。卡思伯特．杜斯记得当年在格拉斯哥，协助把祖母从瓦砾中挖出来：「我们得用手挖掘，但祖母一只手被窗槛夹住。父亲叫我不要看，因为唯一帮祖母脱身的办法，是把她硬拖出来，最后人是拖出来了，却拖断了三只手指。」
列恩．琼斯忆述在伦敦的经历：「烈性炸药爆炸，产生巨大吸力和压力，把人或拉往一边，或推向一处。你感到眼睛都要被吸出去了。」英国民众发觉，炸弹一爆，可以把人炸得支离破碎，也可以把他全身衣服化为飞灰，此外没有损伤。
曾经有一枚伞投炸弹撞穿伦敦帕拉狄昂剧场屋顶，挂在舞台一侧，仍会爆炸。一名海军军官把雷管拆除，获剧院赠送戏票，终身免费入场。
