Who Is James Bond?
The latest Bond film is an enormous box-office (票房) hit. But who is James Bond? Where does he come from? Author Ian Fleming, the creator of James Bond, told us something about the origins of the world's most famous secret agent.
In the first Bond novel, Ian Fleming told us that James Bond was the son of a Scottish father and an Asian mother. But perhaps this was not really true. The title of the 19th Bond film, “The World Is Not Enough,” was based on the Latin motto of the Bond family, which is mentioned in one of the early novels. However, it now appears that the motto is not that of the Scottish Bonds, but that of a different Bond family, who came from England. So perhaps Bond is English, not Scottish.
Bond went to Eton College, the same school as his creator Ian Fleming. This is a school where young people learn how to move in high society, like Bond does so well.
After leaving school, Bond did not go to university. He joined the British Secret Service. He soon got promoted to the top. From then on he was 007, “licensed to kill”, and so began a career which would take him to all the corners of the earth.
In the early days, Bond’s role was quite clear. He was working for the West. His main enemies were men from the KGB and other dangerous organizations. Since the end of the Cold War, the role of the Service has changed, and Bond’s job profile has changed with it. Now his main enemies are the big bosses of organized crime and international terrorism.
Unlike the Cold War, organized crime is unlikely to come to an end. We can therefore be sure that James Bond, the best-known English fictional hero of the 20th century, has many more adventures ahead of him.

【文章大意】谁是詹姆斯邦德?
最新的邦德电影票房大卖。但谁是詹姆斯邦德?他从哪里来?詹姆斯邦德的创造者作家伊恩弗莱明向我们讲述了世界上最著名的秘密特工的起源。
在第一部邦德小说中,伊恩弗莱明告诉我们,詹姆斯邦德的父亲是苏格兰人,母亲是亚洲人。但也许这不是真的。第 19 部邦德电影的片名“The World Is Not Enough”取材于邦德家族的拉丁格言,这句话在早期小说之一中有所提及。然而,现在看来,座右铭不是苏格兰邦德家族的座右铭,而是来自英格兰的另一个邦德家族的座右铭。所以也许邦德是英国人,而不是苏格兰人。
邦德去了伊顿公学,与他的创造者伊恩弗莱明在同一所学校。这是一所年轻人学习如何进入上流社会的学校,就像邦德一样。
离开学校后,邦德没有上大学。他加入了英国特勤局。他很快就升到了最高层。从此他成为了007,“职业杀手”,开始了他的职业生涯,走遍了地球的各个角落。
早期,邦德的角色非常明确。他为西方工作。他的主要敌人是来自克格勃和其他危险组织的人。自冷战结束以来,军种的角色发生了变化,邦德的工作经历也随之发生了变化。现在他的主要敌人是有组织犯罪和国际恐怖主义的大佬。
与冷战不同,有组织犯罪不太可能结束。因此,我们可以肯定,20 世纪最著名的英国虚构英雄詹姆斯·邦德(James Bond)还有更多的冒险等待着他。
