36.Immigrate to America
移民美國
Attracted by the boom in America, my nephew teamed up with a Korean to illegally cross the Bearing Strait in the Arctic to America. To avoid the Customs ’ punishment, they hid in a small ferry called the North Pole Seagull, sitting back to back without sleeping, showering and shaving for 3 days, and had no chance to mourn their lost luggage when landing. The hardship of this crossing was apparent.
因為受到美國繁榮 的吸引，我的侄子與一名韓國人合作，從北極的白令海峽偷渡到美國。為了避開海關的懲處，他們躲在一艘叫“北極海鷗”的渡輪裡，背靠背坐著，整整3天沒有睡覺、洗澡和刮鬍子，上岸的時候也沒有機會
心痛他們丟失的行李，這次橫渡的艱辛是顯而易見的。At first, he made a living by means of raising cattle and then was hired in aircraft industries. He lived in a Catholic district. Taking in a small percentage of Pakistani immigrants, the majority of the residents were from Italy and Denmark, who all kept up their customs and cultures. Different blocks here were distinctly marked out and indicated from the racial angle. It was unfair and needed reforming. But with nowhere else to go, my nephew live d on and managed to make a life for himself.
起初，他藉助飼養牲畜謀生，後來受僱於飛機製造工業。他住的地方是一個天主教區，除了包括一小部分（百分比）的巴基斯坦 移民，大部分的居民都來自於意大利和丹麥，他們都保持著自己的風俗和文化，使這裡的街區都從種族的角度清楚地劃出界線，明確標示。這很不公平，極需改革，但我的侄子沒別的地方可去，只好繼續居住下去，想法設法開始新的生活。
My nephew’s fortune came when he bravely helped a conductor brake a ream to stop it from slipping out of the rails. The man was elected vice chairman of the Socialist Party later. It occurred to my nephew that he could grasp this opportunity to ask for his help. The man who was thankful helped him apply to the civil authority for the right to live in America by inserting his brave deed into his documents. Unlike a great many other applicants, his application was approved by the Federal Justice Ministry. Before long, he started his own bakery and lived a better life.
我侄子的好運在他勇敢地幫助一名列車員剎停一列電車以防止其滑出軌道時到來了。那個人後來被選為社會黨的副 主席，我侄子就想到應該抓住機會請求他的幫助。這個人充滿感激，立即把我侄子的勇敢事蹟插入到申請文件中，幫助我侄子向美國國內政權當局申請美國居住權。不像別的許多申請人，我侄子的申請很快被聯邦司法部批准了。不久，他就開了自己的麵包店，過上了稍好一點的生活。
