休閑對(duì)話：門(mén)當(dāng)戶對(duì)才會(huì)有愛(ài)情——《簡(jiǎn)?愛(ài)》

Jessica: I wish I could be as brave as Jane.

我希望我可以像簡(jiǎn)那樣勇敢。

Rebecca: Jane? Who is this Jane BTW? I thought I was your best friend.

簡(jiǎn)?她是何方神圣啊?我還以為我是你最好的朋友。

Jessica: Of course you are. I am reading Jane Eyre.

當(dāng)然了。我在看小說(shuō)《簡(jiǎn)愛(ài)》

Rebecca: Oh. The other woman, Jane?

那個(gè)小三，簡(jiǎn)?

Jessica: Watch your tongue. She is a tough woman. And when she knew her man had married, she left right away.

注意以下自己的語(yǔ)氣。她是一個(gè)很堅(jiān)強(qiáng)的女人。而且當(dāng)她知道她所愛(ài)的人結(jié)過(guò)婚以后，她馬上離開(kāi)了。

Rebecca: She left because of hatred. All women hate betrayal.

她離開(kāi)了因?yàn)樵购蕖?所有的女人都憎恨背叛。

Jessica: Maybe she wasn’t born with a silver spoon in her mouth. But she got courage to pursue true love, which was very difficult at the time of Charlotte.

可能她并不是出生在高貴家庭。可是她有勇氣去尋找真愛(ài)。這種勇氣在夏洛特時(shí)代是一件非常難得事情。

Rebecca: Spiritually, she was looking for true love. Don’t you agree with me that she left partly because she knew that her man wouldn’t actually elope with her? When Jane inherited her uncle’s fortune and her man’s wife died, they were a match economically.

精神上來(lái)說(shuō)，她在尋找真愛(ài)。你不認(rèn)為她離開(kāi)了，部分原因是他知道她所愛(ài)的男人不會(huì)跟她私奔?當(dāng)簡(jiǎn)繼承了她叔叔的遺產(chǎn)以后，他們才經(jīng)濟(jì)基礎(chǔ)上對(duì)等。

Jessica: Come on. Are you saying that love is impossible without money? Don’t you have faith?

得了吧。你是說(shuō)沒(méi)有經(jīng)濟(jì)基礎(chǔ)的愛(ài)情是不可能的?你沒(méi)有信仰嗎?

Rebecca: I do. I have faith in myself.

我有。我相信我自己。
