Question

谁能告诉我这段话来自哪里？急用！最好有翻译。求高人！

We can tell a good deal of what is going on along Chestnut street without leaving our desk. Chestnut street sings a music of its own. Its genial human sympathy could never be mistaken for that of any other highway. The various strands of sound that compose its harmony gradually sink into our mind without our paying conscious heed to them. For instance, there is the light sliding swish of the trolley poles along the wire, accompanied by the deep rocking rumble of the car, and the crash as it pounds over the cross-tracks at Sixth street. There is the clear mellow clang of the trolley gongs, the musical trill of fast wagon wheels running along the trolley rails, and the rattle of hoofs on the cobbled strip between the metals. Particularly easy to identify is the sound every citizen knows, the rasping, sliding clatter of a wagon turning off the car track so that a trolley can pass it. The front wheels have left the track, but the back pair are scraping along against the setts before mounting over the rim.

作者 Christopher Morley
书名 Christopher Morley's Philadelphia
我们不离开办公桌就可以知道栗子街很多事情。栗子街唱自己的音乐。它对人和煦的同情永远不会被误认为是另一条大路。它一缕缕不同的声音形成的和声慢慢透入我们的大脑，在我们毫不留意的情况下。比如，有电车缆慢慢在电线上的滑声，由车身沉闷滚动的隆隆声伴奏，还有它在第六街过交叉线时的轰鸣声。有电车鸣笛时清晰优雅的铛铛声，马车车胎跑在铁轨上音乐性的颤声，还有在金属之间砖地上的马蹄嘎嘎声。尤其可认清的是所有市民都知道的声音，刺耳，滑动的哗啦声，是在一辆马车偏离轨道，允许电车超过它的声音。前轮已经下了电车轨了，但后轮会蹭着石头边直到跳过去。
(讽刺写法，抱怨噪音的)

Answer 2

我们可以告诉一个很好的协议是怎么回事，不离开我们的办公桌沿栗树街。栗树街唱自己的音乐。和煦的人类同情可能永远不会被误认为是任何其他公路。其和谐的声音，组成各股逐渐下沉到我们的头脑中，而无需支付自觉听取他们。例如，有滑动小车沿着电线两极的嗖嗖声，伴随着由深摇晃隆隆的车光，并坠毁在轨道交叉，英镑在第六街。有明确的小车锣鼓，音乐的颤音，快速沿小车导轨上运行的旅行车的轮毂和金属之间的鹅卵石地带的马蹄声嘎嘎醇厚铛。特别容易辨认，是每一个公民都知道，声音刺耳，滑动关闭车跟踪，推车可以将它传递一个车皮的稀哩哗啦。前轮已经离开了赛道，但后面对刮对安装在RIM之前的长方砌石。
