Chapter 3.
Chương 3.
5
When I had attained the age of 17, my parents resolved that I should become a student at the University of Ingolstadt.
6
I had hitherto attended the schools of Geneva, but my father thought it necessary, for the completion of my education,
7
that I should be made acquainted with other customs than those of my native country.
8
My departure was therefore fixed at an early date, but before the day resolved upon could arrive, the first misfortune of my life occurred,
9
an omen as it were of my future misery elizabeth had caught the scarlet fever her illness was severe
10
and she was in the greatest danger during her illness many
11
arguments had been urged to persuade my mother to refrain from
12
attending upon her she had at first yielded to our entreaties
13
but when she heard that the life of her favorite was menaced she could no longer control her anxiety
14
she attended her sickbed her watchful attentions triumphed over the malignity of the distemper elizabeth was saved
15
but the consequences of this imprudence were fatal to her preserver
16
on the third day my mother sickened her fever was accompanied by the most alarming symptoms
17
and the looks of her medical attendance prognosticated the worst event
18
On her deathbed, the fortitude and benignity of this best of women did not desert her.
19
She joined the hands of Elizabeth and myself.
20
My children, she said.
21
My firmest hopes of future happiness were placed on the prospect of your union.
22
This expectation will now be the consolation of your father.
23
Elizabeth, my love, you must supply my place to my younger children.
24
Alas, I regret that I am taken from you, and happy and beloved as I have been.
25
Is it not hard to quit you all?
26
But these are not thoughts befitting me.
27
I will endeavor to resign myself cheerfully to death, and will indulge a hope of meeting you in another world.
28
She died calmly, and her countenance expressed affection even in death.
29
I need not describe the feelings of those whose dearest ties are rent by that most irreparable evil, the void that presents itself to the soul,
30
and the despair that is exhibited on the countenance.
31
It is so long before the mind can persuade itself that she, whom we saw every day,
32
and whose very existence appeared a part of our own, can have departed forever, that the brightness of a beloved eye can have been extinguished
33
and the sound of a voice so familiar
34
and dear to the ear can be hushed never more to
35
be heard these are the reflections of the first days but
36
when the lapse of time proves the reality of the evil
37
then the actual bitterness of grief commences yet from whom has not
38
that rude hand rent away some dear connection
39
and why should I describe a sorrow which all have felt
40
and must feel the time at length arrives
41
when grief is rather an indulgence than a necessity and the smile
42
that plays upon the lips although it may be deemed a sacrilege is not banished my mother was dead
43
but we had still duties
44
which we ought to perform we must continue our course with the rest
45
and learn to think ourselves fortunate whilst one remains whom the spoiler has not seized.
46
My departure for Ingolstadt, which would have been deferred by these events, was now again determined upon.
47
I obtained from my father a respite of some weeks.
48
It appeared to me sacrilege so soon to leave the repose, akin to death, of the house of mourning,
49
and to rush into the thick of life.
50
I was new to sorrow, but it did not the less alarm me.
51
I was unwilling to quit the sight of those that remained to me,
52
and above all, I desired to see my sweet Elizabeth in some degree consoled.
53
She indeed veiled her grief, and strove to act the comforter to us all.
54
She looked steadily on life, and assumed its duties with courage and zeal.
55
She devoted herself to those whom she had been taught to call her uncle and cousins.
56
Never was she so enchanting as at this time when she recalled the sunshine of her smiles and spent them upon us.
57
She forgot even her own regret in her endeavors to make us forget.
58
The day of my departure at length arrived.
59
Clerval spent the last evening with us he had endeavored to persuade his father to permit him to accompany me
60
and to become my fellow student
61
but in vain his father was a narrow -minded traitor
nhưng tất cả đều vô ích, cha của hắn là một kẻ phản bội hẹp hòi.
62
and saw idleness and ruin in the aspirations
và nhận thấy sự vô ích và sự hủy diệt trong những khát vọng đó
63
and ambition of his son henry deeply felt this misfortune of being debarred from a liberal education he said little
và tham vọng của con trai ông, Henry, đã cảm nhận sâu sắc sự bất hạnh khi bị cấm đoán khỏi một nền giáo dục tự do, ông ít nói.
64
but when he spoke i read his kindling eye
nhưng khi anh ấy nói, tôi đã đọc được ánh mắt rực rỡ của anh ấy
65
and in his animated glance a restrained
và trong ánh mắt sống động của anh ấy là một sự kiềm chế
66
but firm resolve not to be chained to the miserable details of commerce
nhưng là một quyết tâm kiên định không để mình bị trói buộc bởi những chi tiết tầm thường, khổ sở của thương mại
67
we sat late we could not tear ourselves away from each other nor persuade ourselves to say the word farewell
Chúng tôi ngồi lại đến khuya, không thể rời xa nhau, cũng không thể thốt ra lời tạm biệt.
68
it was said and we retired under the pretense of seeking repose each fancying
Người ta nói vậy, rồi chúng tôi rời đi với cái cớ là đi tìm sự nghỉ ngơi, mỗi người đều tự tưởng tượng ra điều gì đó trong đầu.
69
that the other was deceived but when at morning's dawn i descended to the carriage
70
which was to convey me away they were all
71
there my father again to bless me clarival to press my hand once more my elizabeth to renew her entreaties
72
that i would write often and to bestow the last feminine attentions on her playmate
73
and friend i threw myself into the chase that was to convey me away and indulged in the most melancholy reflections.
74
I, who had ever been surrounded by amiable companions, continually engaged in endeavoring to bestow mutual pleasure, I was now alone.
75
In the university, whither I was going, I must form my own friends and be my own protector.
76
My life had hitherto been remarkably secluded and domestic, and this had given me invincible repugnance to new countenances.
77
I loved my brothers, Elizabeth and Clairvill.
78
These were old familiar faces, but I believed myself totally unfitted for the company of strangers.
79
Such were my reflections as I commenced my journey.
80
But as I proceeded, my spirits and hopes rose.
81
I ardently desired the acquisition of knowledge.
82
I had often, when at home, thought it hard to remain during my youth cooped up in one place,
83
and had longed to enter the world and take my station among other human beings.
84
Now my desires were compiled with, and it would, indeed, have been folly to repent.
85
I had sufficient leisure for these and many other reflections during my journal to Ingolstadt, which was long and fatiguing.
86
At length, the high white steeple of the town met my eyes.
87
I alighted and was conducted to my solitary apartment to spend the evening as I pleased.
88
The next morning, I delivered my letters of introduction and paid a visit to some of the principal professors.
89
Chance, or rather the evil influence,
90
the angel of destruction, which asserted omnipotent sway over me from the moment I turned my reluctant steps from my father's door,
91
led me first to M.
92
Krempe, professor of natural philosophy.
93
He was an uncouth man, but deeply embued in the secrets of his science.
94
He asked me several questions concerning my progress in the different branches of science appertaining to natural philosophy.
95
I replied carelessly and, partly in contempt, mentioned the names of my alchemists as the principal authors I had studied.
96
The professor stared.
97
Have you, he said, really spent your time in studying such nonsense?
98
I replied in the affirmative every minute continued m krimp with warmth every instant
99
that you have wasted on those books is utterly
100
and entirely lost you have burdened your memory with exploded systems
101
and useless names good god in what desert land have you lived where no one was kind enough to inform
102
you that these our fancies which you have
103
so greedily imbibed are a thousand years old and as musty as they are ancient.
104
I little expected in this enlightened and scientific age to find a disciple of Albertus Magnus and Paracelsus.
105
My dear sir, you must begin your studies entirely anew.
106
So saying, he stepped aside and wrote down a list of several books treating of natural philosophy, which he desired me to procure,
107
and dismissed me after mentioning that in the beginning of the following week,
108
he intended to commence a course of lectures upon natural philosophy and its general relations, and that M.
109
Waldman, fellow professor, would lecture upon chemistry the alternative days that he omitted.
Waldman, đồng nghiệp giáo sư, sẽ giảng dạy môn hóa học vào những ngày xen kẽ mà ông ấy vắng mặt.
110
i returned home not disappointed for i have said
Tôi trở về nhà mà không hề thất vọng vì tôi đã nói rồi.
111
that i had long considered those authors useless whom the professor reprobated
rằng từ lâu tôi đã coi những tác giả mà giáo sư lên án là vô dụng
112
but i returned not at all the more inclined to recur
nhưng tôi trở về mà chẳng hề có chút ý định quay lại nữa
113
to these studies in any shape m kremp was a squat little man with a gruff voice and repulsive countenance the teacher,
đối với những nghiên cứu này dưới bất kỳ hình thức nào, M. Krempe là một người đàn ông thấp bé, vạm vỡ, có giọng nói gắt gỏng và khuôn mặt đáng ghê tởm, vị giáo sư ấy,
114
therefore, did not prepossess me in favor of his pursuits.
115
In rather a too philosophical and connected a strain,
116
perhaps, I had given an account of the conclusions I had come to concerning them in my early years.
117
As a child, I had not been content with the results promised by the modern professors of natural science,
118
with a confusion of ideas only to be accounted for by my extreme youth, and my want of a guide on such matters,
119
I had retrod the steps of knowledge along the paths of time, and exchanged the discoveries of recent inquirers for the dream of forgotten alchemists.
120
Besides, I had a contempt for the uses of modern natural philosophy.
121
It was very different from when the masters of the science sought immortality and power.
122
Such views, although futile, were grand, but now the scene was changed.
123
The ambition of the Enquirer seemed to limit itself to the annihilation of those visions on
124
which my interest in science was chiefly founded.
125
I was required to exchange chimeras of boundless grandeur for realities of little worth.
126
Such were my reflections during the last two or three days of my residence at Ingolstadt,
127
which were chiefly spent in becoming acquainted with the localities and the principal residence in my new abode.
128
But as the ensuing week commenced, I thought of the information which M.
129
Crump had given me concerning the lectures,
130
and although I could not consent to go and hear that little conceited fellow deliver sentences out of a pulpit,
131
I recollected what he had said of M.
132
Waldman, whom I had never seen, as he had hitherto been out of town.
133
Partly from curiosity and partly from idleness, I went into the lecturing room, which M.
134
Waldman entered shortly after.
135
This professor was very unlike his colleague.
136
He appeared about fifty years of age, but with an aspect expressive of the greatest benevolence.
137
A few gray hairs covered his temples, but those at the back of his head were nearly black his person was short
138
but remarkably erect
139
and his voice was the sweetest i had ever heard
140
he began his lecture by a recapitulation of the history of chemistry
141
and the various improvements made by different men of learning pronouncing with fervor the names of the most distinguished discoverers
142
he then took a cursory view of the present state of the science and explained many of its elementary terms.
143
After having made a few preparatory experiments, he concluded with a panegyric upon modern chemistry,
144
the terms of which I shall never forget.
145
The ancient teachers of this science, said he, promised impossibilities and performed nothing.
146
The modern masters promise very little.
147
They know that metals cannot be transmuted and
148
that the elixir of life is a chimera
rằng thuốc trường sinh chỉ là một ảo tưởng
149
but these philosophers whose hands seem only made to dabble in dirt
nhưng những triết gia này, bàn tay của họ dường như chỉ được tạo ra để vấy bẩn vào bụi đất
150
and their eyes to pour over the microscope
và họ chăm chú nhìn vào kính hiển vi
151
or crucible have indeed performed miracles they penetrate into the recesses of nature
152
and show how she works in her hiding places
153
they ascend into the heavens they have discovered how the blood circulates and the nature of the air we breathe.
154
They have acquired new and almost unlimited powers.
155
They can command the thunders of heaven, mimic the earthquake, and even mock the invisible world with its own shadows.
156
Such were the professor's words.
157
Rather, let me say such the words of fate announced to destroy me.
158
As he went on, I felt as if my soul were grappling with a palpable enemy.
159
One by one, the various keys were touched, which formed the mechanism of my being.
160
Chord after chord was sounded, and soon my mind was filled with one thought, one conception, one purpose.
161
So much has been done.
162
exclaimed the soul of Frankenstein.
163
More, far more will I achieve.
164
Treading in the steps already marked, I will pioneer a new way,
165
explore unknown powers, and unfold to the world the deepest mysteries of creation.
166
I closed not my eyes that night.
167
My internal being was in a state of insurrection and turmoil.
168
I felt that order would thence arise, but I had no power to produce it.
169
By degrees, after the morning's dawn, sleep came.
170
I awoke, and my yesternight's thoughts were as a dream.
171
There only remained a resolution to return to my ancient studies
172
and to devote myself to a science for which I believed myself to possess a natural talent.
173
On the same day, I paid M.
174
Waldman a visit.
175
His manners in private were even more mild and attractive than in public.
176
For there was a certain dignity in his mean during his lecture,
177
which in his own house was replaced by the greatest affability and kindness.
178
I gave him pretty nearly the same account of my former pursuits as I had given to his fellow professor.
179
He heard with attention the little narration concerning my studies, and smiled at the names of Cornelius Agrippa and Paracelsus.
180
But without the contempt that M.
181
Krimp had exhibited, he said that these were men to whose
182
indefatigable zeal modern philosophers were indebted for most of the foundations of their knowledge.
183
They had left to us, as an easier task, to give new names and arrange in connected classifications,
184
the facts which they, in a great degree, had been the instruments of bringing to light.
185
The labors of men of genius,
186
however erroneously directed, scarcely ever fail in ultimately turning to the solid advantage of mankind.
187
I listened to his statement, which was delivered without any presumption or affection,
188
and then added that his lecture had removed my prejudices against modern chemists.
189
I expressed myself in measured terms with the modesty and deference due from youth to his instructor,
190
without letting escape, inexperience in life would have made me ashamed, any of the enthusiasm which stimulated my intended labors.
191
I requested his advice concerning the books I ought to procure.
192
I am happy, said M.
193
Waldman, to have gained a disciple and
194
if your application equals your ability i have no doubt of your success chemistry is
195
that branch of natural philosophy in which the greatest improvements have been made
196
and may be made it is on that account
197
that i have made it my peculiar study
198
and at the same time i have not neglected the other branches of science a man would make
199
but a very sorry chemist if he to that department of human knowledge alone.
200
If your wish is to become really a man of science and not merely a petty experimentalist,
201
I should advise you to apply to every branch of natural philosophy, including mathematics.
202
He then took me into his laboratory and explained to me the uses of his various machines, instructing me as to what I ought to procure
203
and promising me the use of his own when I should advance far enough in the science not to derange their mechanism.
204
He also gave me a list of books, which I had requested, and I took my leave.
205
Thus ended a day memorable to me.
206
It decided my future destiny.

Phương Pháp Shadowing Là Gì?
Shadowing là kỹ thuật học ngôn ngữ có cơ sở khoa học, ban đầu được phát triển cho chương trình đào tạo phiên dịch viên chuyên nghiệp và được phổ biến rộng rãi bởi nhà đa ngôn ngữ học Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Nguyên lý cốt lõi đơn giản nhưng cực kỳ hiệu quả: bạn nghe tiếng Anh của người bản xứ và lặp lại to ngay lập tức — như một "cái bóng" (shadow) đuổi theo người nói với độ trễ chỉ 1–2 giây. Khác với luyện ngữ pháp hay học từ vựng bị động, Shadowing buộc não bộ và cơ miệng phải đồng thời xử lý và tái tạo ngôn ngữ thực tế. Các nghiên cứu khoa học xác nhận phương pháp này cải thiện đáng kể phát âm, ngữ điệu, nhịp điệu, nối âm, kỹ năng nghe và độ lưu loát khi nói — đặc biệt hiệu quả cho người luyện IELTS Speaking và muốn giao tiếp tiếng Anh tự nhiên như người bản ngữ.
