the last leaf 故事用英文概述

故事开头先写出故事的名称和作者，再大致的简述概括，最后再总结。

The last leaf is about the story of two young painters in Washington slums, Su and Qiongxi, and their neighbor, Belman. Qiongxi suffered from severe pneumonia in the cold November, and her condition became more and more serious. 

As a painter, she put the hope of life on the last rattan leaf outside the window, thinking that when the rattan leaves fall, it is the end of her life. As a result, she lost the courage and faith to live. 

As her friend Su was very sad, she told the old painter Belman about Johnsy's idea. The old painter was a hot tempered, teasing drunkard who was always accompanied by wine. After nearly 40 years of painting, nothing has been achieved. 

Every day, I say I want to create a masterpiece, but it's just empty talk. But he took good care of the two young painters. When he heard about it, he scolded, but there was nothing to do.

But the amazing thing happened: even though the wind outside the house was so strong, and the serrated leaf edge had withered and turned yellow, it still grew on the high rattan branch. 

Qiongxi saw that the last leaf was still hanging on the tree, and that the leaf could survive the cold wind. Why couldn't she? So he regained his life belief and survived tenaciously. But this is not the end of the story. 

The truth has just been opened: it was Behrman who was over sixty years old. On a stormy night, in order to draw the last rattan leaf, he caught pneumonia because of a cold. At the last moment of his life, he finally completed a shocking masterpiece.

译文：

《最后一片叶子》描写的是华盛顿贫民窟的两个年青的画家苏和琼西同她们的邻居贝尔曼之间发生的故事。琼西在寒冷的十一月患上了严重的肺炎，并且其病情越来越重。作为画家的她，将生命的希望寄托在窗外最后一片藤叶上，以为藤叶落下之时，就是她生命结束之时。

于是，她失去了活下去的勇气和信念。作为她的朋友苏很伤心，便将琼西的想法告诉了老画家贝尔曼，这个老画家是个脾气火爆，爱取笑人的酒鬼，终日与酒为伴。画了近四十年的画，一事无成，每天都说要创作出一篇惊世之作，却始终只是空谈。

但是他对这两位年青的画家却是照顾有佳。他听到了此事后，便骂了一通，但仍无计可施。然而令人惊奇的事发生了，尽管屋外的风刮得那样厉害，而锯齿形的叶子边缘已经枯萎发黄，但它仍然长在高高的藤枝上。

琼西看到最后一片叶子仍然挂在树上，叶子经过凛冽的寒风依然可以存留下来， 自己为什么不能？于是又重拾生的信念，顽强地活了下来。可是故事并不是到此就结束了，真相才刚刚打开。

原来是年过六旬的贝尔曼，在一个风雨交加的夜晚，为了画上最后一片藤叶，因着凉，染上了肺炎。在他生命的最后时刻，他终于完成了令人震撼的杰作。

人物简介；

“琼西”是乔安娜的昵称，琼西来自加利福尼亚，女孩琼西被肺炎袭击，躺在床上。琼西的朋友苏毫不犹豫地照顾她。当琼西听到医生近乎绝望的诊断时，苏非常伤心。因为医生说约翰西康复的希望在于她自己对生存的渴望。

琼西的梦想是生存，有一天能画那不勒斯湾，这是画家的愿望。于是，苏编了一个善意的谎言，但她发现约翰西很失望地数着常春藤上的几片叶子，绝望地想，当最后一片叶子枯萎时，她也离开了这个世界。苏听后很伤心，说服琼西睡觉。此后，继而忍痛进行创作，赚取琼西的医疗费及营养费。

贝尔曼是一位60多岁的老画家，他一直把自己看作是“苏”和“琼西”的守护神。他是个老人，靠给穷画家做模特和画一些商业广告来挣生活费。

尽管他喝得太多了，但他始终坚信自己能够完成尚未开始的优秀作品，从而成为一名成功的作家。贝尔曼得了肺炎。他在风雨中为琼西画上最后一片珍贵的叶子。他的伟大和毅力总是集中在常春藤的叶子上。
