Lesson 27 Nothing to sell and nothing to buy 没有东西可卖也没有东西可买

It has been said that everyonelives by selling something. In the light ofthisstatement, teachers live by selling knowledge,philosophers by selling wisdom andpriests by sellingspiritual comfort. Though it may be possible tomeasure the value of material goodin terms of money, it isextremely difficult toestimate the true value of theservices which peopleperform for us.（1）There are times when we wouldwillingly give everything wepossess to save our lives, yet we mightgrudge paying a surgeon a high fee for offering usprecisely this service.The conditions of society are such that skills have to be paid forin the same way that goods are paid for at a shop. Everyone has something to sell.
Tramps seem to be the onlyexception to this general rule. Beggars almost sell themselves ashuman beings to arouse the pity of passers-by. But real tramps are not beggars.（2）They have nothing to sell and require nothing from others. In seekingindependence, they do not sacrifice their humandignity. A tramp may ask you for money, but he will never ask you tofeel sorry for him. He hasdeliberately chosen to lead the life he leads and is fullyaware of theconsequences. He may never be sure where the next meal iscoming from, but he isfree fromthe thousands ofanxieties whichafflict other people. His few material possessions make it possible for him to move from place to placewith ease. By having to sleepin the open, hegets far closer to the world of nature than most of us ever do. He may hunt, beg, or stealoccasionally to keep himself alive; he may even,in times of real need, do a little work; but he will neversacrifice his freedom.（3）We oftenspeak of tramps withcontempt and put them in the same class as beggars, but how many of us can honestly say that we have not felt a littleenvious of their simple way of life and their freedom from care?

全文翻译：
据说每个人都靠出售某种东西来维持生活。根据这种说法，教师靠卖知识为生，哲学家靠卖智慧为生，牧师靠卖精神安慰为生。虽然物质产品的价值可以用金钱来衡量，但要估算别人为我们为所提供的服务的价值却是极其困难的。有时，我们为了挽救生命，愿意付出我们所占有的一切。（1）社会上的情况就是如此，技术是必须付钱去买的，就像在商店里要花钱买商品一样。人人都有东西可以出售。
在这条普遍的规律前面，好像只有流浪汉是个例外，乞丐出售的几乎是他本人，以引起过路人的怜悯。但真正的流浪并不是乞丐。（2）在追求独立自由的同时，他们并不牺牲为人的尊严。游浪汉可能会向你讨钱，但他从来不要你可怜他。他是故意在选择过那种生活的，并完全清楚以这种方式生活的后果。他可能从不知道下顿饭有无着落，但他不像有人那样被千万桩愁事所折磨。他几乎没有什么财产，这使他能够轻松自如地在各地奔波。由于被迫在露天睡觉，他比我们中许多人都离大自然近得多。为了生存，他可能会去打猎、乞讨，偶尔偷上一两回；确实需要的时候，他甚至可能干一点儿活，但他决不会牺牲自由。（3）
