AT five o'clock the two ladies retired to dress, and at half past six Elizabeth was summoned to dinner. To the civil enquiries which then poured in, and amongst which she had the pleasure of distinguishing the much superior solicitude of Mr. Bingley's, she could not make a very favourable answer. Jane was by no means better. The sisters, on hearing this, repeated three or four times how much they were grieved, how shocking it was to have a bad cold, and how excessively they disliked being ill themselves, and then thought no more of the matter; and their indifference towards Jane, when not immediately before them, restored Elizabeth to the enjoyment of all her original dislike.
五點(diǎn)鐘的時(shí)候，主人家兩姐妹出去更衣；六點(diǎn)半的時(shí)候伊麗莎白被請(qǐng)去吃晚飯。大家都禮貌周全，紛紛來探問吉英的病情，其中尤其是彬格萊先生問得特別關(guān)切，這叫伊麗莎白非常愉快，只可惜吉英的病情一些沒有好轉(zhuǎn)，因此她無法給人家滿意的回答。那姐妹聽到這話，便幾次三番地說她們是多么擔(dān)心，說重傷風(fēng)是多么可怕，又說她們自己多么討厭生病，──說過了這些話以后就不當(dāng)它一回事了。伊麗莎白看到她們當(dāng)吉英不在她們面前的時(shí)候就對(duì)吉英這般冷淡，于是她本來那種討厭她們的心理現(xiàn)在又重新滋長(zhǎng)起來。

Their brother, indeed, was the only one of the party whom she could regard with any complacency. His anxiety for Jane was evident, and his attentions to herself most pleasing, and they prevented her feeling herself so much an intruder as she believed she was considered by the others. She had very little notice from any but him. Miss Bingley was engrossed by Mr. Darcy, her sister scarcely less so; and as for Mr. Hurst, by whom Elizabeth sat, he was an indolent man, who lived only to eat, drink, and play at cards, who, when he found her prefer a plain dish to a ragout, had nothing to say to her.
的確，她們這家人里面只有她們的兄弟能使她稱心滿意，你一眼便可以看出他是真的在為吉英擔(dān)憂，再說他對(duì)于伊麗莎白也殷勤和悅到極點(diǎn)。伊麗莎白本以為人家會(huì)把她看作一個(gè)不速之客，可是有了這份殷勤，她就不這么想了。除他以外，別人都不大理睬她。彬格萊小姐的心在達(dá)西先生身上，赫斯脫太太差不多也沒有什么兩樣；再說到赫斯脫先生，他就坐在伊麗莎白身旁，他天生一副懶骨頭，活在世上就是為了吃、喝、玩牌，他聽到伊麗莎白寧可吃一碟普通的菜而不喜歡吃燴肉，便和她談不上勁了。?

When dinner was over, she returned directly to Jane, and Miss Bingley began abusing her as soon as she was out of the room. Her manners were pronounced to be very bad indeed, a mixture of pride and impertinence; she had no conversation, no stile, no taste, no beauty. Mrs. Hurst thought the same, and added,?"She has nothing, in short, to recommend her, but being an excellent walker. I shall never forget her appearance this morning. She really looked almost wild."
伊麗莎白一吃過晚飯就回到吉英那兒去。她一走出飯廳，彬格萊小姐就開始說她的壞話，把她的作風(fēng)說得壞透了，說她既傲慢又無禮貌，不懂得跟人家攀談，儀表不佳，風(fēng)趣索然，人又長(zhǎng)得難看。赫斯脫太太也是同樣的看法，而且還補(bǔ)充了幾句：“總而言之，她除了跑路的本領(lǐng)以外，沒有要樣別的長(zhǎng)處。她今兒早上那副樣子我才永遠(yuǎn)忘不了呢，簡(jiǎn)直象個(gè)瘋子?！?/div>

"She did indeed, Louisa. I could hardly keep my countenance. Very nonsensical to come at all! Why must she be scampering about the country, because her sister had a cold? Her hair so untidy, so blowsy!"
“她的確象個(gè)瘋子，露薏莎。我簡(jiǎn)直忍不住要笑出來。她這一趟來得無聊透頂；姐姐傷了點(diǎn)風(fēng)，干嗎要她那么大驚小怪地跑遍了整個(gè)村莊？──頭發(fā)給弄得那么蓬亂，那么邋遢！”

"Yes, and her petticoat; I hope you saw her petticoat, six inches deep in mud, I am absolutely certain; and the gown which had been let down to hide it not doing its office."
“是呀，還有她的襯裙──可惜你沒看到她的襯裙。我絕對(duì)不是瞎說，那上面糊上了有足足六英寸泥，她把外面的裙子放低了些，想把來遮蓋，可是遮蓋不住?！?/div>
