參考譯文

你喜歡搖滾樂嗎？有些人不喜歡。他們說：“搖滾樂太吵了！”并非所有的搖滾樂都是震耳欲聾的。英國的搖滾樂隊(duì)“甲殼蟲”唱的就是輕柔的歌曲。你可能對他們不太了解。但你的父輩可能一聽到他們的名字就很興奮。

“甲殼蟲樂隊(duì)”出了20世紀(jì)60年代最著名的歌手。直到今天還有人認(rèn)為它是最好的。

這支樂隊(duì)有4名成員：約翰·列儂、林戈·斯塔爾、保羅·麥卡特尼和喬治·哈里森。1962年，他們以一曲“我想握住你的手”而聞名。他們的歌能幫助人們化悲哀為歡快?，F(xiàn)在，許多年齡在40或40歲以上的人依舊能唱《昨日》和《順其自然》之類的名曲。

“當(dāng)我發(fā)現(xiàn)自己處于困境，圣母瑪麗亞總會來到我身旁。用智慧的語言循循善誘，順其自然。當(dāng)我處在黑暗中，她就會站在我面前，用智慧的語言循循善誘，順其自然?！薄吧钤谑郎闲乃榈娜藘憾纪猓鸢妇褪琼樒渥匀弧！?/p>

樂隊(duì)于1970年解散。1980年12月8日，主唱約翰·列儂被一位瘋狂的歌迷槍殺。整個(gè)世界都為這位超級巨星的離去而感到悲哀。許多人參加了他的葬禮，為的是見他最后一面。

列儂死后，“甲殼蟲樂隊(duì)”的專輯賣得更好了。但很少有人唱他們的歌曲，因?yàn)樗麄兂惺懿黄疬@種悲哀。他們知道，盡管歌聲依舊，但他們最喜愛的歌星已經(jīng)永遠(yuǎn)離去。
