Szpilman的处境越来越危险， Dorota夫妇也奔命去了。此时的Szpilman 俨然成了一个野人，饥饿难耐，无所不吃，但所到之处都是空空如也。最后，他终于找到了一瓶罐头，就在他“乒乒乓乓”凿瓶盖，声音招引来一位德国军官，Szpilman认为这次他死定了，可就是这位德国军官救了他的命。
德军失败后，那位军官成了苏联军队的俘虏，他希望Szpilman 能来救他，当Szpilman 赶到时，已不见影踪——德国俘虏也遭受了如同他们曾经虐待过的犹太人一样的命运，——他们被送到了苏联的监狱。也许他们得到了应有的报复，但是相同的人类的命运轮回不能不让人感叹。有人这样评论道：“《钢琴师》是人类在面对死亡坚忍不懈的告白书，是对音乐震撼人心的力量的敬礼，它表现了人性的坚持和活下去的希望，是一个不促人报复的故事。 ”我觉得这样说是对的。

1.第一次和德国军官遭遇时：  
  
THE GERMAN CAPTAIN： Who the hell are you?（Szpilman 吓坏了，只是看着他）
THE GERMAN CAPTAIN：What the hell are you doing?
SZPILMAN： I was... I was trying to open this  tin.
THE GERMAN CAPTAIN：Where do you live?（Szpilman 还是没有回答）
THE GERMAN CAPTAIN：What's your work?
SZPILMAN： I am... I was a pianist.
THE GERMAN CAPTAIN： A pianist.
THE GERMAN CAPTAIN：Are you hiding here?（Szpilman 点了点头.）
THE GERMAN CAPTAIN：Jew?
THE GERMAN CAPTAIN：Where are you hiding?
SZPILMAN：In the attic.
THE GERMAN CAPTAIN： Show me.
THE GERMAN CAPTAIN：Have you anything to eat?
THE GERMAN CAPTAIN： I'll bring you something.
SZPILMAN：What's all that gunfire?
THE GERMAN CAPTAIN： The Russians. On the other side of  the river. All you have to do is hang on for a few more weeks.

重点：
1.“the hell ”是一种骂人的话，意思相当于“该死的”。
2.attic n.阁楼，顶楼。
3.“hang on ”意思是“抗、坚持”。

2.几天后，德国军官又来了，他给Szpilman带来了一大堆吃的。
THE GERMAN CAPTAIN： Come down.
SZPILMAN：What's happening?
THE GERMAN CAPTAIN：We're getting out.
SZPILMAN：Are the Russians here?
THE GERMAN CAPTAIN： Not yet.（德国军官递给Szpilman一大包东西，他打开一看全是好吃的，他非常感动。）
SZPILMAN：I don't know how to thank you.
THE GERMAN CAPTAIN：Don't thank me. Thank God. It's His will that we should survive. Well. That's what we have to believe.（德国军官见Szpilman冻得发抖，把他的军大衣脱下来让他穿上。)
SZPILMAN：What about you?
THE GERMAN CAPTAIN：I've got another one.  Warmer.  What will you do when it's all over?
SZPILMAN：I'll play the piano again. On Polish  radio.
THE GERMAN CAPTAIN：Tell me your name. I'll listen out  for you.
SZPILMAN：Szpilman.
THE GERMAN CAPTAIN：Szpilman.Good name for a pianist.

重点：
1.“get out”意思是逃走、撤。
2.“listen out  ”留心听。
