<傲慢与偏见>中有一段依丽莎白拒绝柯林先生的求婚后,去见父亲的对话,哪路英雄提供一下英文版?

Mrs Bennet rang the bell, and Miss Elizabeth was summoned to the library

"Come here, child," cried her father as she appeared "I have sent for you on an affair of importance I understand that Mr Collins has made you an offer of marriage Is it true" Elizabeth replied that it was "Very well -- and this offer of marriage you have refused"

"I have, Sir"

"Very well We now come to the point Your mother insists upon your accepting it Is not it so, Mrs Bennet"

"Yes, or I will never see her again"

"An unhappy alternative is before you, Elizabeth From this day you must be a stranger to one of your parents -- Your mother will never see you again if you do not marry Mr Collins, and I will never see you again if you do"

Elizabeth could not but smile at such a conclusion of such a beginning; but Mrs Bennet, who had persuaded herself that her husband regarded the affair as she wished, was excessively disappointed

"What do you mean, Mr Bennet, by talking in this way You promised me to insist upon her marrying him"

"My dear," replied her husband, "I have two small favours to request First, that you will allow me the free use of my understanding on the present occasion; and secondly, of my room I shall be glad to have the library to myself as soon as may be"

班纳特太太拉下了铃，伊丽莎白**给叫到书房里来了。

爸爸一见她来，便大声说：“上这儿来，孩子，我叫你来谈一件要紧的事。我听说柯林斯先生向你求婚，真有这回事吗？”伊丽莎白说，真有这回事。“很好。你把这桩婚事回绝了吗？”

“我回绝了，爸爸。”

“很好，我们现在就来谈到本题。你的妈非要你答应不可。我的好太太，可不是吗？”

“是的，否则我看也不要看到她了。”

“摆在你面前的是个很不幸的难题，你得自己去抉择，伊丽莎白。从今天起，你不和父亲成为陌路人，就要和母亲成为陌路人。要是你不嫁给柯林斯先生，你的妈就不要再见你，要是你嫁给他，我就不要再见你了。”

伊丽莎白听到了那样的开头和这样的结论，不得不笑了一笑；不过，这可苦了班纳特太太，她本以为丈夫一定会照着她的意思来对待这件事的，哪里料到反而叫她大失所望。“你这话是什么意思，我的好老爷？你事先不是答应了我，非叫她嫁给他不可吗？”

“好太太，”丈夫回答道，“我有两件事要求你帮帮忙。第一，请你允许我自由运用我自己的书房。我真巴不得早日在自己书房里图个清闲自在。”

德文版：

　　 Ich denke dein, wenn mir der Sonne Schimmer

　　 Vom Meere strahlt

　　 Ich denke dein, wenn sich des Mondes Flimmer

　　 In Quellen malt

　　 Ich sehe dich, wenn auf dem fernen Wege

　　 Der Staub sich hebt

　　 In tiefer Nacht, wenn auf dem schmalen Stege

　　 Der Wandrer bebt

　　 Ich hoere dich, wenn dort mit dumpfem Rauschen

　　 Die Welle steigt

　　 Im stillen Haine geh' ich oft zu lauschen

　　 Wenn alles schweigt

　　 Ich bin bei dir; du seist auch noch so ferne

　　 Du bist mir nah!

　　 Die Sonne sinkt, bald leuchten mir die Sterne

　　 I’, waerst du da!

歌得是德国人，还是看德文版吧~~

●对话精彩点评:

在一个月饼节的对话中，提到了个说法—长生不老，但好多朋友不知道如何表达了，或许头脑中只有西游记的概念，比如什么仙丹之类的东西，却没有想长生不老的本意是什么，所以表达出现瞬间的停顿，很正常了。

A:The Heavenly Queen Mother gave him a bottle of magic liquid

B: What What’s for

A: If you had it, you would cure

illnesses or make you live forever

B: oh, my god Are you kidding

A: I’m serious In many Chinese stories,people want to live longer

So they want to get this magic something

B: I see

这段对话很好的将仙丹，比做成一种神奇的药，化解了必须去想仙丹的单词，

也增加了谈话的神秘性，接着呢，将长生不老，比喻成假如吃掉这神奇的药，就会治疗好疾病，可以使自己永远生存在世间的，这不是很好的表达方式吗，

而且整个句子运用了虚拟语气，加大了表达的难度，给人感觉语法很好，对吧！

●附：中秋节的传说：

Mooncakes are to Mid-Autumn Festival what mince pies are to Christmas The seasonal round cakes traditionally have a sweet filling of lotus seed paste or red bean paste and often have one or more salted duck eggs in the center to represent the moon And the moon is what this celebration is all about Mid-Autumn Festival falls on the 15th day of the 8th month, it is the time when the moon is said to be at its brightest and fullest This year the festival falls on October 1

There are two legends which claim to explain the tradition of eating mooncakes One Tang Dynasty myth holds that the Earth once had 10 suns circling it One day all 10 suns appeared at once, scorching the planet with their heat It was thanks to a skillful archer named Hou Yi that the Earth was saved He shot down all but one of the suns As his reward, the Heavenly Queen Mother gave Hou Yi the Elixir of Immortality, but she warned him that he must use it wisely Hou Yi ignored her advice and, corrupted by fame and fortune, became a tyrannical leader Chang-Er, his beautiful wife, could no longer stand by and watch him abuse his power so she stole his Elixir and fled to the moon to escape his angry wrath And thus began the legend of the beautiful woman in the moon, the Moon Fairy

The second legend has it that during the Yuan Dynasty, an underground group led by Zhu Yuan Zang was determined to rid the country of Mongolian dominance The moon cake was created to carry a secret message When the cake was opened and the message read, an uprising was unleashed which successfully routed the Mongolians It happened at the time of the full moon, which, some say, explains why mooncakes are eaten at this time

Mooncakes are usually stamped with Chinese characters indicating the name of the bakery and the type of filling used Some bakeries will even stamp them with your family name so that you can give personalised ones to friends and family They are usually presented in boxes of four which indicate the four phases of the moon Traditional mooncakes are made with melted lard, but today vegetable oil is more often used in the interests of health

Mooncakes are not for the diet-conscious as they are loaded with calories The best way to wash down one of these sticky cakes is with a cup of Chinese tea, especially Jasmine or Chrysanthemum tea, which aids the digestion

中秋节吃月饼就像西方人圣诞节吃百果馅饼一样，是必不可少的。圆圆的月饼中通常包有香甜的莲子馅或是红豆馅，馅的中央还会加上一个金黄的咸鸭蛋黄来代表月亮。而月亮正是中秋节庆祝的主题。每年农历8月15日人们一起庆祝中秋，据说这一天的月亮是一年中最亮最圆的。今年的中秋节恰好是阳历的10月1日（中国的国庆日）。

关于吃月饼这个传统的来历有两个传说。一个是唐朝的神话故事，说的是当时地球被10个太阳包围着。有一天10个太阳同时出现在天空中，巨大的热量几乎把地球烤焦了。多亏一位名叫后羿的神箭手射下了9个太阳，地球才被保住。为了奖励后羿，王母娘娘赐给后羿一种长生不老药，但是王母警告他必须正当使用。然而后羿没有理会王母娘娘的警告，他被名利冲昏了头脑，变成了一个暴君。后羿美丽的妻子嫦娥对他的暴行再也不能袖手旁观，于是她偷走了后羿的长生不老药，飞到月亮上逃避后羿的狂怒。从此就有了关于月宫仙子嫦娥，这个月亮上的美丽女人的传说。

第二个传说讲的是在元朝，朱元璋领导的起义军计划起义来摆脱蒙古族的统治。他们用月饼来传递密信。掰开月饼就可以找到里面的密信，起义军通过这种方式成功的发动了起义，赶走了元朝的统治者。这场起义发生在八月十五之时，于是中秋节吃月饼的习俗便在民间传开来。
