李欣然Abby 奥斯丁小说系列之曼斯菲尔德庄园 Chapter 1#1
Just for Fun
片段讲解秀
from:《蒙娜丽莎的微笑》
我的有声书,为了督促自己看完这本书
把我自己不认识的字找了意思写在这
Baronet 男爵 所以文中Baronet's lady是男爵夫人
Exclaimed=announced 发出声明 (或惊叹)
Equitable 公平的,公正的
Acquaintance 熟人 相识
scruple 动词表示:有顾忌
contemptible 卑劣的,可耻的
conjugal 婚姻的,夫妻之间的 felicity 幸福快乐
(conjugal felicity 美满姻缘)
disoblige 悖人意
lieutenant 中尉 副官
untoward 麻烦的, 不幸的,困难的
respectability 体面,可尊敬,有社会地位
exert for 为得到…而努力
devise 想出,图谋
breach 违背,违反
这一段主要讲了富裕的Mansfield庄园拥有者Sir Thomas和Huntington家的小姐Maria结婚后,为Huntington一家带了不错的名声,但是H家另两位小姐却没有像她们姐姐那样嫁的好。
把第一页的内容接下来的在第二页的句子写完整
seeing all that were connected with him in situations of respectability, he would have been glad to exert for the advantage of Lady Bertram's sister; but her husband's profession was such as no interest could reach; and before he had time to devise any other method of assisting them, an absolute breach between the sisters had taken place.
明天继续。。
