310、英语小故事(英汉对照)“1摄氏度的爱”
1℃ love
In a cold winter, a couple had to move out from the luxury villa(别墅) because of bankruptcy.
在一个寒冷的冬天,一对夫妇因为破产,不得不搬出豪华别墅。
The husband worked day and night to support the family but didn't spend enough time with his wife.
为了养家糊口,丈夫夜以继日地工作,但没有花足够多的时间陪伴妻子。
So she thought, "He doesn't love me anymore,he just cares about his business... not me."
于是她想:“他不再爱我了,他只关心他的生意……不关心我。”
One day, on her way to take a bath, he stopped her at the door, "Let me take it first, okay?"
有一天,她正要去洗澡,他在门口拦住了她,“让我先洗,好吗?”
"Why not let me shower first," she asked.
“为什么不让我先洗澡呢?” 她问。
"I am tired, sweetie, you take it later, okay?" This made her very sad.
“亲爱的,我累了,你之后再洗,好吗?” 这句话让她很伤心。
It was yet another sad day, and she found nothing to do, then she turned on his computer, a few words blurred(使模糊) her eyes. It was his diary:
又是悲伤的一天,她找不到任何事情可做,然后她打开了他的电脑,几句话使她的视线模糊不清。那是他的日记:
Today, I was quite sad, she asked me why I was always taking a bath first, and all I said to her was, "I am tired."
今天我很伤心,她问我为什么我总是先洗澡,我只能对她说,“我累了。”
She was unhappy. In her mind, I didn't treat her as well as I used to, but what can I do? I was not as rich as before!
她很不高兴,在她看来,我对她没有以前那么好,但我能做什么呢?我不像以前那么有钱了!
We moved to a smaller apartment. We only had one shower in the bathroom. It was so cold to take a shower in such an extremely cold winter.
我们搬到了一个小一点的公寓。我们浴室里只有一个淋浴器。在这么冷的冬天洗澡真是太冷了。
But I found that if one person took the showerfirst, the room could get warmer. So, I rushed to the bathroom every time to have my bath first.
但是我发现,如果有个人先洗澡,浴室就会变暖和一些。所以,我每次都冲到浴室先洗澡。
I was thinking that, when she took the shower, the room would get warmer, at least 1℃, 2℃ or 3℃.
我在想,当她洗澡的时候,浴室会更暖和些,至少温度会高个1到3摄氏度吧。
Now I can't give her a comfortable life, bring her to the luxury restaurant like old times, or buy her expensive dresses, but at least, I can give her 1℃ love.
现在我不能给她舒适的生活,不能像过去一样带她去豪华餐厅,或者给她买昂贵的衣服,但至少,我能给她1℃的爱情。
