jake曾在台湾和新加坡工作过。

Please don’t invite Tom,he is a jake flake.

不要邀请汤姆，他太乏味了，大家都不愿和他在一起。

From the beginning,Jake made his feelings clear about the subject of cats:they were best served on a plate, with a side order of fries!

从一开始，杰克就明确了对猫的看法:猫最适合做成一道菜盛在盘子里，再配上炸土豆条!

But jake just looked at the little creature, then looked up at me, and then back at the kitten

但是，杰克只是看看小猫，瞧瞧我，再看看小猫。

But it would have to wait until later--jake and his kittens were fast asleep

但是，这番话有待以后再说了--杰克和它的猫仔已经熟睡了。

It was well past eleven o’clock, and as we passed the elevator, the doors opened and a man in his fifties and his grown son stepped out.They also ran into Jake and Mac.’Oh, how beautiful, " said the son. "Can we pet the dogs?"

当时早过了1l点，我们经过电梯的时候，门开了，出来一位50多岁的男士和他成年的儿子。他们也看见了杰克和麦克。“噢，真漂亮，”那儿子说道。“我们可以摸摸它们吗?”

The next day, I took Jake to the vet.After his examination, the vet said, "I’m afraid this dog has a serious heart condition. I don’t expect him to make it totheendof the week."

第二天，我带杰克去看兽医。检查完了，兽医说:“恐怕这狗有严重的心脏病，我想它活不到这个周末。”

Jake immediately became a cherished member of our family. He loved watching the birds we attracted to our yard with numerous feeders and birdbaths.

杰克立时成了我们家心爱的成员。它喜欢观看我们用无数喂食器和鸟澡盆吸引到院子里的鸟。

Jake was our resident dog, a large dominant male, part Border collie and part Labrador retriever, with a little German shepherd thrown in.

杰克是我们家养的狗，是条体格高大、盛气凌人的公狗，有着博德牧羊犬、纽芬兰拾渍和一点儿德国牧羊狗的血统。

Jake heard the meowing and immediately began to salivate

杰克听到喵喵叫声后，立即开始分泌唾液，

Jake heard the meowing and immediately began to salivate. And drool.And pant.Our veterinarian told us,"Some dogs just don’t accept cats under any condition. "

杰克听到喵喵叫声后，立即开始分泌唾液，口水流出嘴巴，气喘吁吁。兽医告诉我们说，“有的狗在任何情况下都不接受猫。”

Jake glanced at me with his big deer eyes; we’d knew we made contact. I asked the woman, "Did you ever think you’d see a dog in the hospital?"

杰克用它那鹿般的大眼睛扫视了我一下;我们明白我们和病人建立起联系了。我问那妇人:“你曾经想到过会在医院里看见一只狗吗?”

Jake was waiting. The time had come, so I carefully put the babies on the floor of the kitchen and held my breath, ready to come to the rescue if necessary.

杰克在等着。关键时刻来了。我小心翼翼地把猫仔放在厨房地上，屏住呼吸，准备必要时救助那些小猫。

Jake walked over and sniffed1 each of the kittens.Then he sat down in the middle of them and looked up at me with a sweet,sappy grin on his face.The kittens swarmed over him, happy to find a big, warm body of fur to curl up next to.

杰克走了过来，挨个闻了闻猫仔。然后，它坐在它们当中，面带甜蜜的傻笑瞧着我。猫仔们簇拥而上，为找到可以蜷缩其旁的又大又暖和的毛茸茸的身体感到欣喜。

She started to gently pat Jake ’s head unaided, with a completely open hand.I smiled.She smiled.Jake smiled.

她开始自己用完全张开的手，轻柔地拍杰克的头。我笑了，她笑了，杰克也笑了。

That’s where I met jake

就是在那我结识了jake。

Like Jake the muss, the fictional gang member in the popular but violent true-to-life film "Once Were Warriors", he was big enough, and experienced enough to hold the respect of even experienced gang members who wore "patches"

就像备受欢迎的、反映现实的暴力影片《昔日之武士》中那个虚构的匪徒“一团糟杰克”，他人高马大，并有足够的阅历赢得甚至那些戴着“遮眼罩”的有经验的同伙的尊敬。

Her hand relaxed, slowly opened and lightly gripped onto Jake ’s ear.

那妇人的手开始放松，慢慢打开，然后轻轻握住杰克的耳朵。

It’ s simple:My dog Jake worked miracles with his love.

其实并不难理解:我的狗用爱创造了奇迹。

Sam Taylor-Wood, a contemporary of British artists like Damien Hirst and Jake Chapman, called the footage a "reverential and vulnerable image"

萨姆·泰勒·伍德，这位与戴蒙·赫斯特和狄奴斯·查普曼同时代的英国艺术家，把这部录像片称之为一个"可敬的、脆弱的形象"。

I’d only had him one night,but thenewshitme hard. Jake looked at me and I at him and I said, "’Let’s go home, boy. "

虽然这狗只跟我待了一夜，可是兽医的这番话对我还是当头一棒。杰克和我目目相视。我说:“伙计，咱们回家吧。”

Jake was about two years old when he was adopted by us from the local animal shelter. He came into our lives shortly after I lost my beloved dog Martha to an unexpected illness.

它在当地的动物庇护所被我们领养时，大约两岁。我心爱的狗马撒因意外疾病而故去后，不久杰克就出现在我们生活中。

Using soothing words to try and keep Jake calm, I moved in closer, hoping to prevent the ugly attack I felt sure was coming.

我边用抚慰的话试着使杰克保持安静，边往前走，希望能避免我确信会发生的可怕攻击。

I was so proud, and Jake was too.For the next six years, we spent every Friday night at the hospital in the ontology/hematology unit; we saw hundreds of patients.

我感到无比骄傲，杰克也有同感。随后的6年中，我们每个星期五晚上都去医院的肿瘤;血液病病房，看望了数以百计的病人。

My sister found Jake roaming the streets. He was all skin and bones, his fur was matted,and he was filthy and exhausted. The only thing shiny about him was his big eyes.They looked just like the eyes of a deer.

我姐姐发现杰克在街上逛荡。它瘦骨嶙峋，浑身的毛结成了块，又脏又累，惟一有光泽的是它的那对大眼睛，看起来像是鹿的双眸。

I thought this would suit Jake , so I scheduled an interview. Jake was, as the interviewer said, enthuslastic

我觉得这适合杰克，所以就安排了一次约见。正如面试人所说的那样，杰克“性格热情”。

We told the shelter worker that we wanted Jake to come home with us because we could sense he had a lot of magic inside of him. "That’s great, " she said. "Just don’t bring him back when he shows you that magic! "

我们告诉庇护所工作人员，我们要把它带-回家，因为我们能感觉到它蕴藏着许多魔力。“那太了，”她说道。“只是当它显示它那魔力的时候，不要再退回来!”

I felt so privileged to be a part of our therapy team, not only because I witnessed what Jake was able to do, but because I had the voice to tell of it, and tocelebrate it, both during his lifetime and even now,long after he is gone.

我为自己是医疗小组的一员感到非常荣幸，这不仅仅是因为我亲眼看到了杰克所做的一切，还因为我能在它生前和故世多年后的今天，亲口讲述和赞颂它的事迹。

I spoke directly to her, "This is Jake , and he’s got very long ears. We think he’s part cocker spaniel and part Irish setter."

我直对她说:“这是杰克，它的耳朵很长。我们认为它是借用小黄犬和爱尔兰塞特种猎犬的混种。”

I pulled a chair over next to her head. I sat down and Jake hopped right up into my lap. I gently took the woman’s clenched fist and let her knuckles stroke Jake’ s long soft ears.

我拽过一把椅子，靠近她的头。我坐下后，杰克径直跳上我的双腿。我轻柔地拿起那妇人紧攥的拳头，用她的指节抚摸杰克的软长耳朵。
