《Pride and Prejudice》(十)

pride and prejudice

Chapter 10

It would not be easy, indeed, to catch their expression, but their colour and shape, and the eye-lashes, so remarkably fine, might be copied.  ––Jane Austen

抓住出它们的神采确实很难,不过那眼睛的颜色,形状和她的睫毛,都如此美丽,也许能被描绘出来。

––简·奥斯汀

In the evening, Elizabeth, Mr. Darcy Mr.Bingley and his sister all stayed in the drawing room. They began talk about friends and something else, but Elizabeth got into an argument with Darcy.

Word study:

1.unison n.和谐,齐唱(unite v.团结,和谐)

4.humility n.谦逊,谦卑(也很神奇 humiliate是 v.使蒙羞)

6.panegyric n.颂词,赞颂

Chapter 11

There is, I believe, in every disposition a tendency to some particular evil, a natural defect, which not even the best education can overcome.             ––Jane Austen

我相信,无论怎样的人都会有短处,这是天生的缺陷,就算受到最好的教育也无法改变。

––简·奥斯汀

Outline:

Jane well guarded from cold, so she attended into drawing-room with Elizabeth.

In this evening, Miss Bingley persuaded Elizabeth to follow her to take a turn about the room, and Elizabeth agreed to it. And at that time, she got along well with Darcy, and Darcy began to fell the danger of paying Elizabeth too much attention.

Word study:

1.propitious adj.合适的,吉利的(appropriate也是恰当的,合适的,不够还能做动词,表示挪用,占用)

2.morrow n.次日,(想想tomorrow,今天的次日就是明天呀。也可表示重大事件后紧接的时期)

3.jealousy n.嫉妒,猜忌(jealous n. 嫉妒少一个y就变名词啦)

昨天阿毛白天出去玩了,然后晚上回学校,居然停电了,那时候不知道是生气多一点还是好笑多一点。

停电了不能写,就只能今天连写两章啦,不过这样写到最后就是60啦,之前还一直觉得61看起来不舒服。

第十章,第十一章,伊丽莎白和达西互动超多。恩,达西先生夸了伊丽莎白眼睛好看了,也开始发现自己对伊丽莎白关注太多啦,小高潮就要来了哟~

希望能一直坚持到chapter 61,加油!❤
