翻译段落：
　　在盼中，日子真的流得飞快，转眼上了小学，继而初中，然后高中，最后大学；盼的欲望更加强烈，盼的内容也渐渐丰富了；盼有好成绩毕业，盼有一份好工作，盼事业有成，盼挣钱替父母分忧，盼有一个爱人……不知不觉，天天踩着盼的石阶而上，自己竟然成了一个大男人，一个挣钱养家糊口的忙碌人了。生活开始变得复杂。然而，无论自己是否变得庸俗，变的伟大，盼头依然天天有：盼信件，盼稿件被采用，盼发奖金，盼其事有了满意结果，盼一次聚会，一次旅行……人就在盼中找到了依托。
　　参考译文：
　　Days spent in expectation come and go really very fast. Very soon I finished primary school, went to junior and senior middle school, and finally to college; with ever greater desire for more varied things: for graduation with honor, for an ideal job, for a successful career, for more earnings to share my parents’ burden, for a satisfactory wife…. Climbing the upward steps of hope I had become a fully grown man before I was aware of it, a busy breadwinner with a family on my hands.
　　Life began to show its various facets. Whether I have turned more vulgar or great, I have always something to look forward to. It may be arrival of a letter, publication of an article, the bonus-distributing day, a gratifying result of something, a get-together of a pleasure trip…Such expectations serve as a prop to a person’s faith in life.
　　翻译点评：
　　丰富：这里的丰富不宜译为rich，因为此处表达的是“多种多样、多姿多彩”的意思，所以用varied比较好。
　　养家糊口：固定词组，breadwinner
　　依托：prop有“支柱。支撑物”的意思；想不到这个词，可以用paraphrase的方法，用一个句子表达出来，例如sth.one’s life relies on.
