"Aye -- because she asked him at last how he liked Netherfield, and he could not help answering her; -- but she said he seemed very angry at being spoke to."
“嘿──那是后來她問起他喜歡不喜歡尼日斐花園，他才不得不已敷衍了她一下；可是據(jù)她說，他似乎非常生氣，好象怪她不該跟她說話似的?！?/div>

"Miss Bingley told me," said Jane, "that he never speaks much unless among his intimate acquaintance. With them he is remarkably agreeable."
“彬格萊小姐告訴我，”吉英說，“他從來不愛多說話，除非跟知已的朋友們談?wù)劇Ｋ麑Υ雅笥逊浅：吞@可親?！?/div>

"I do not believe a word of it, my dear. If he had been so very agreeable, he would have talked to Mrs. Long. But I can guess how it was; every body says that he is ate up with pride, and I dare say he had heard somehow that Mrs. Long does not keep a carriage, and had come to the ball in a hack chaise."
“我跟本不相信這種話，要是他果真和藹可親，就該跟郎格太太說話啦。可是這里面的奧妙是可想而知的，大家都說他非常驕傲，他所以沒跟郎格太太說話，或許是因為聽到朗格太太連馬車也沒有一部，臨時雇了車子來參加跳舞會吧。”

"I do not mind his not talking to Mrs. Long," said Miss Lucas, "but I wish he had danced with Eliza."
“他沒跟郎格太太說話，我倒不計較，”盧卡斯小姐說，“我只怪他當(dāng)時沒跟伊麗莎跳舞?！?/div>

"Another time, Lizzy," said her mother, "I would not dance with him, if I were you."
“麗萃，假如我是你，”她母親說，“我下次偏不跟他跳舞?！?/div>

"I believe, Ma'am, I may safely promise you never to dance with him."
“媽媽，我相信我可以萬無一失地向你保證，我怎么也不跟他跳舞呢?！?/div>

"His pride," said Miss Lucas, "does not offend me so much as pride often does, because there is an excuse for it. One cannot wonder that so very fine a young man, with family, fortune, every thing in his favour, should think highly of himself. If I may so express it, he has a right to be proud."
“他雖然驕傲，”盧卡斯小姐說，“可不象一般人的驕傲那樣使我生氣，因為他的驕傲還勉強(qiáng)說得過去。這么優(yōu)秀的一個青年，門第好，又有錢，樣樣都比人家強(qiáng)，也難怪他要自以為了不起，照我的說法，他有權(quán)利驕傲?！?/div>

"That is very true," replied Elizabeth, "and I could easily forgive his pride, if he had not mortified mine."
“這倒是真話，”伊麗莎白回答道，“要是他沒有觸犯我的驕傲，我也很容易原諒他的驕傲?！?/div>

"Pride," observed Mary, who piqued herself upon the solidity of her reflections, "is a very common failing I believe. By all that I have ever read, I am convinced that it is very common indeed, that human nature is particularly prone to it, and that there are very few of us who do not cherish a feeling of self-complacency on the score of some quality or other, real or imaginary. Vanity and pride are different things, though the words are often used synonimously. A person may be proud without being vain. Pride relates more to our opinion of ourselves, vanity to what we would have others think of us."
“我以為驕傲是一般人的通病，”曼麗說。她覺得自己的見解很高明，因此提高了談話的興致。“從我所讀過的許多書看來，我相信那的確是非常普遍的一種通病，人性特別容易趨向于這方面，簡直誰都不免因為自己具有了某種品質(zhì)而自命不凡。虛榮與驕傲是截然不同的兩件事，盡管字面上常常當(dāng)作同義詞用，一個人可以驕傲而不虛榮。驕傲多半不外乎我們對我們自己的估價，虛榮卻牽涉到我們希望別人對我們的看法?！?/div>

"If I were as rich as Mr. Darcy," cried a young Lucas who came with his sisters, "I should not care how proud I was. I would keep a pack of foxhounds, and drink a bottle of wine every day."
盧家一個小哥兒（他是跟他姐姐們一起來的）忽然說道：“要是我也像達(dá)西先生那么有錢，我真不知道會驕傲到什么地步呢。我要養(yǎng)一群獵狗，還要每天喝一瓶酒?！?/div>

"Then you would drink a great deal more than you ought," said Mrs. Bennet; "and if I were to see you at it, I should take away your bottle directly."
班納特太太說：“那你就喝得太過分啦，要量給我看見了，我就馬上奪掉你的酒瓶。”

The boy protested that she should not; she continued to declare that she would, and the argument ended only with the visit.
那孩子抗議道，她不應(yīng)該那樣做；她接著又宣布了一遍，說她一定要那樣，一場辯論直到客人告別時方才結(jié)束。
