The blind man knew the sound of different machines in the pub like the
back of his hand. I don't know how long it took him to distinguish the
sounds of various machines, but it must have taken him a lot of time,
because he only worked in one pub at a time.
那個盲人對酒館裏不同機器發出的聲響了如指掌。我不知道他用了多久才把各種機器的聲音壹壹辨清，但這事兒準花了他不少時間，因為他壹次只在壹家酒館做。
However, he has jobs in both towns. He will work in frat first, until
it's dark, and then go to Jessup. When he heard a car coming, he would
stop by the side of the road, the lights would shine on him, sometimes
they would stop to give him a ride, sometimes they would not, and they
would drive right by him on the frozen road.
不過他在兩個鎮上都有活，他會在弗拉特先做，壹直到天全黑了，再前往傑塞普。聽見有車開過來他就會在路旁停下來，車燈照見他，有時他們會停下車來送他壹程，有時則不，徑直在冰凍的路面從他旁邊開過。
Take him or not depends on whether the car is full and whether there
are women, because the smell of the blind man is very strong,
especially in winter. But there will always be people stopping to let
him up, because he is blind.
帶不帶他要看車上有沒有坐滿，有沒有女士，因為瞎子身上氣味很重，尤其在冬天。但總會有人停車讓他上去，因為他是個盲人。
這部分內容主要考察的是復合賓語的知識點：
構成關系：
在雙賓語中，兩個賓語間的關系比較松散，有的句子去掉其中壹個賓語，句子仍然成立。雙賓語壹般表示“為誰（forsb．）或給誰（to sb．）……”，即“及物動詞+間接賓語+直接賓語”的結構可以改寫為“及物動詞+直接賓語+for sb．或to sb．”的結構。例如：Please show me your new book．→Please show your new book to me．請給我看看妳的新書。She bought me some tomatoes．→She bought some tomatoes for me．她給我買了壹些西紅柿。
而復合賓語中，賓語和賓語補足語之間關系比較緊密，去掉其中壹個成分，句子就不能成立或句意不完整。而且當名詞、形容詞、副詞、介詞短語作賓語補足語時，和賓語之間具有“主系表關系”；當不定式（短語）或分詞（短語）作賓語補足語時，和賓語之間具有“主謂關系”。
