If people mean anything at all by the expression "untimely death", they must believe that some deaths run on a better schedule than others. Death in old age is rarely called untimely- a long life is thought to be a full one. But with the passing of a young person, one assumes that the best years lay ahead and the measure of that life was still to be taken.
History denies this, of course. Among prominent summer deaths, one recalls those of Marilyn Monroe and James Deans, whose lives seemed equally brief and complete. Writers cannot bear the fact that poet John Keats died at 26, and only half playfully judge their own lives as failures when they pass that year. The idea that the life cut short is unfulfilled is illogical because lives are measured by the impressions they leave on the world and by their intensity and virtue.
选项
答案
如果“英年早逝”这一词语表达确有所指的话,那么人们必定会相信人各有命。年迈谢世不属“英年早逝”,而是寿终正寝。倘若是青年过世,人们会认为他的锦绣年华尚还未展其时,天寿应为几何,不可预料。
诚然,历史对此难以苟同。论起英年早逝,人们自会忆起玛丽莲?梦露和詹姆斯?迪恩兹。此二人虽皆命薄寿短,但人生同为完整圆满。一代诗圣约翰?济慈年方二十有六便驾鹤西天,令众作家皆为之唏嘘不已。倘如年至26岁之时尚无建树,他们难免会戏谑自己荒费人生。“短寿即为人生不全”这一观点并非合理,因为人生是否完整取决于其留与世人的印象,取决于其内涵丰富的程度,以及取决于其自身的美德所在。
