问题 ……一进教堂我就被那钢琴的乐音吸引住了，简直不能自拔。可是我父母哪儿买得起钢琴呀。更槽糕的是，据说钢琴家都有音乐细胞，是遗传的；我想我父亲是工程师，母亲是技术员，哪会遗传什么音乐细胞呀。
选项
答案...I found myself inexorably attracted by the melody of a piano—something beyond the means of my parents. To make it worse, people say a pianist is supposed to have music in the blood, but I believe I had none from my engineer father and technician mother.
解析 汉英翻译有时需要化繁为简，以使译文不显得过于拖沓冗长。“可是我父母哪儿买得起钢琴呀”在原文中是单独一句，这句似乎单独译为一句However a piano was unaffordable for my parents也可算是不错的译文，但此处译文将句子简化为一个介词短语beyond the means of my parents，令人赞叹。“我想我父亲是工程师，母亲是技术员，哪会遗传什么音乐细胞呀”似乎也只有老老实实照原文语序直译为how could I acquire the gift，for my father was an engineer while my mother a technician，但看了此处译文I had none from my engineer father and technician mother，才发觉上面的译文过于拘谨了。
