When I went back into my Kindle and my Twitter and Tumblr and email and all the other places where I noted or saved especially noteworthy stories from the past year, I found that many of them fell into certain categories.
当我回到 Kindle、Twitter、Tumblr、电子邮件以及我在过去一年中记下或保存特别值得注意的故事的所有其他地方时，我发现其中许多都属于某些类别。
And so, here they are.
所以，他们就在这里。
(There are more than five stories, just because.)
（有五个以上的故事，只是因为。）
TRUE CRIME
真实犯罪
One of the best true crime pieces of the past year was that David Grann lawyer-in-Guatemala story, but everyone has already said that, so I am going to go with Robert Kolker’s “A Serial Killer in Common,” which is the devastating, horrifying story about the Long Island serial killer and the families of the women who were killed.
去年最好的真实犯罪片之一是大卫·格兰恩在危地马拉的律师的故事，但每个人都已经说过了，所以我会选择罗伯特·科尔克的《共同的连环杀手》，这是一个关于长岛连环杀手和被杀妇女家人的毁灭性、可怕的故事。
Also, it’s not exactly true crime in the traditional sense of the term, but Kathy Dobie’s GQ story, “The Girl from Trails End,” about the 11-year-old girl in Texas who was gang-raped, repeatedly, was another really excellent crime-related story.
此外，这并不完全是传统意义上的真实犯罪，但凯西·多比 (Kathy Dobie) 的《GQ》故事《来自 Trails End 的女孩》讲述了德克萨斯州一名 11 岁女孩多次被轮奸的故事，这是另一个非常精彩的犯罪相关故事。
Also, I would like someone to write a longer story about Aaron Bassler, the guy who killed two people in California and then went on the run in Mendocino County for a month before he was killed by police.
另外，我希望有人写一篇关于亚伦·巴斯勒（Aaron Bassler）的更长的故事，他在加利福尼亚州杀死了两人，然后在门多西诺县逃亡了一个月，然后被警察杀死。
THE WAY WE LIVE NOW
我们现在的生活方式
I didn’t make a “trend piece” category because, ugh, but two stories from the past year that I thought really captured Our Moment were Molly Lambert’s “In Which We Teach You How to Be a Woman in a Boys’ Club” and Caroline Bankoff’s “On GChat”.
我没有将“潮流作品”分类，因为，呃，但我认为去年的两个故事真正抓住了“我们的时刻”，即莫莉·兰伯特的“我们教你如何在男孩俱乐部中成为一名女性”和卡罗琳·班科夫的“On GChat”。
Molly’s piece was so, so smart, and very true, and had lots of good advice, including to only apologize if you truly fucked up, and then only apologize once.
莫莉的文章非常非常聪明，非常真实，并且有很多好的建议，包括只有在你真的搞砸了的时候才道歉，然后只道歉一次。
Also, this part: “The only men who are turned off by ambition and success are men that are insecure about their own talents and success or lack thereof.
此外，这一部分还说：“唯一对野心和成功望而却步的人是对自己的才能和成功或缺乏信心的人。
You don’t really want to know those guys anyway, because they suck and they will constantly attempt to undermine you, and even if you are secure enough in yourself not to care it’s still really fucking annoying.” And technically, I first encountered Caroline’s piece at a reading in 2010, but since it wasn’t published for public consumption until 2011 (on Thought Catalog) I am counting it.
无论如何，你并不是真的想认识那些人，因为他们很糟糕，他们会不断地试图破坏你，即使你足够安全，不在乎，但这仍然真的很烦人。”从技术上讲，我第一次看到卡罗琳的文章是在 2010 年的一次阅读中，但由于它直到 2011 年才出版供公众阅读（在思想目录上），我正在数它。
It is a wonderful encapsulation of the ways technology has changed the ways that we interact with each other.
这是技术改变我们彼此互动方式的精彩概括。
ADVICE
建议
The Ask a Dude column in the Hairpin is the best advice column ever to exist in the world, if you are a woman in your 20s or 30s who is trying to navigate THIS THING CALLED LIFE, which, yes!
如果你是一个 20 多岁或 30 多岁的女性，正在尝试驾驭这个叫做生活的东西，那么发夹中的“问一个男人”专栏是世界上有史以来最好的建议专栏，是的！
It was really hard to pick a favorite, because they are all cocktails of good, which is how I once heard an editor at the magazine I work for describe a story.
真的很难选出最喜欢的，因为它们都是好东西的鸡尾酒，这就是我曾经听到我工作的杂志编辑描述一个故事的方式。
But I think perhaps “Questionably Tattooed Manchildren and Uses for Old Jars” is one of the Dude’s best, because it offers advice like this to a woman who is worried she is a drunken slut: “If all was right, there’d be a country & western singer named Tammy with a hit named ‘A Whiskey Dick or Two,’ but here we are, in a world where a woman calls herself a slut for sleeping with a number of partners that she’s not ashamed of and then apologizes for it to feminists.
但我认为也许《可疑的纹身男童和旧罐子的用途》是这家伙最好的作品之一，因为它为一个担心自己是醉酒荡妇的女人提供了这样的建议：“如果一切顺利，会有一位名叫塔米的乡村和西部歌手演唱一首名为“一两块威士忌迪克”的热门歌曲，但在我们这里，在一个女人称自己为荡妇的世界里，因为她与许多伴侣上床，而她并不为此感到羞耻。然后为此向女权主义者道歉。
I don’t think I even understand where that puts us.
我想我什至不明白这将我们置于何地。
Somewhere not good, I believe.”
我相信，有些地方不太好。”
THE CELEBRITY PROFILE
名人简介
A bunch of people who’ve submitted these Longreads things have said that they deliberately didn’t put any of their friends on their lists, but I am going to break that non-rule because fuck it, my friends are good writers!
一群提交了这些 Longreads 内容的人说，他们故意不把任何朋友列入他们的名单，但我要打破这个不规则，因为操，我的朋友都是好作家！
Take, for example, this profile of Channing Tatum—“The Full Tatum”—that Jessica Pressler wrote for GQ.
以杰西卡·普莱斯勒 (Jessica Pressler) 为《GQ》撰写的查宁·塔图姆 (Channing Tatum) 简介“完整塔图姆”(The Full Tatum) 为例。
It is a really good celebrity profile.
这是一个非常好的名人档案。
It is even a narrative, which most celebrity profiles are not, they are just, like, “It is 87 degrees in Los Angeles and Kim Kardashian is lying on a chaise longue by the pool at the Chateau Marmont, her white string bikini showing off her perfectly tanned, perfectly toned, perfectly I-survived-Kris-Humphries body, and she is very deliberately not eating the house salad that she so carefully ordered—’No olives, two tablespoons of walnuts and the dressing on the side’—20 minutes before,” and you’re like, TELL ME SOMETHING I DON’T KNOW.
这甚至是一种叙述，而大多数名人简介都不是，他们只是，“洛杉矶气温 87 度，金·卡戴珊 (Kim Kardashian) 躺在马尔蒙城堡 (Chateau Marmont) 泳池边的躺椅上，她的白色系带比基尼展示了她完美晒黑、完美肤色、完美的克里斯·汉弗莱斯 (Kris-Humphries) 身材，而且她故意不吃她精心点的自制沙拉——‘没有橄榄，两汤匙核桃和“在旁边穿衣服”——20 分钟前”，然后你就说，告诉我一些我不知道的事情。
(That lede could also work with Denise Richards/Charlie Sheen, or Demi Moore/Ashton Kutcher, or Katie Holmes/Tom Cruise in 3 years.
（三年后，这个莱德还可以与丹尼斯·理查兹/查理·辛、黛米·摩尔/阿什顿·库彻、凯蒂·霍尔姆斯/汤姆·克鲁斯合作。
It’s all yours!) My other favorite celebrity profile from the past year was Lizzie Widdicombe’s “You Belong With Me,” a profile of Taylor Swift.
都是你的！）去年我最喜欢的另一个名人简介是 Lizzie Widdicombe 的“You Belong With Me”，这是泰勒·斯威夫特的简介。
She had so many great little details in there, including that Taylor’s father Scott wears tasseled loafers.
她那里有很多很棒的小细节，包括泰勒的父亲斯科特穿着流苏乐福鞋。
THE PERSONAL ESSAY
个人文章
Pressler snaked me by choosing John Jeremiah Sullivan’s “Peyton’s Place,” which is this amazing piece about living in the house where they filmed One Tree Hill, so I am going to choose this weird, wonderful three-part thing that Clancy Martin wrote for the Paris Review about trying to get to New York to see Christian Marclay’s The Clock exhibit.
普莱斯勒欺骗了我，选择了约翰·杰里米亚·沙利文的《佩顿的地方》，这是一部关于住在他们拍摄《一树山》的房子里的精彩作品，所以我要选择克兰西·马丁为《巴黎评论》写的这部奇怪而精彩的三部分作品，内容是关于试图去纽约观看克里斯蒂安·马克雷的《时钟》展览。
It contains this paragraph:
其中包含这一段：
“It’s starting to rain, I’m ten miles from home and I already recognize how eccentric, how unstable, how woebegone, how doomed this plan is; the roar of the highway is an echo of my sure failure, and I’m thinking about the trucker who’s too wise to take the little baby in Denis Johnson’s “Car Crash While Hitchhiking” when I hear, incredibly, like a promise from God—there will be many of these in the next twenty-four hours, but I don’t know it yet—the elongated throaty syllables of Lou Reed coming from an amiable-looking white truck with wide mirrors coming off its nose and bumpers that give it a kind of Disney Cars effect.
“天开始下雨了，我离家十英里了，我已经认识到这个计划是多么古怪、多么不稳定、多么不幸、多么注定要失败；高速公路的轰鸣声是我注定失败的回声，我正在想着丹尼斯·约翰逊的《搭便车时车祸》中的卡车司机，他太聪明了，没有带上小婴儿，这时我听到了令人难以置信的声音，就像来自上帝的承诺——在接下来的二十四年里，还会有很多这样的事情。几个小时了，但我还不知道——卢·里德拉长的、嘶哑的音节来自一辆看起来和蔼可亲的白色卡车，车头装有宽大的后视镜，保险杠上有一种迪士尼汽车总动员的效果。
In the movie, the trucks are always the good guys.
在电影中，卡车总是好人。
And, better still, a middle-aged black man with a potbelly is pumping diesel into it, listening to one of the most white-boy songs of all time.”
更棒的是，一个大腹便便的中年黑人正在往里面注入柴油，听着有史以来最白人男孩的歌曲之一。”
