休闲对话：门当户对才会有爱情——《简•爱》

Jessica: I wish I could be as brave as Jane.

我希望我可以像简那样勇敢。

Rebecca: Jane? Who is this Jane BTW? I thought I was your best friend.

简?她是何方神圣啊?我还以为我是你最好的朋友。

Jessica: Of course you are. I am reading Jane Eyre.

当然了。我在看小说《简爱》

Rebecca: Oh. The other woman, Jane?

那个小三，简?

Jessica: Watch your tongue. She is a tough woman. And when she knew her man had married, she left right away.

注意以下自己的语气。她是一个很坚强的女人。而且当她知道她所爱的人结过婚以后，她马上离开了。

Rebecca: She left because of hatred. All women hate betrayal.

她离开了因为怨恨。 所有的女人都憎恨背叛。

Jessica: Maybe she wasn’t born with a silver spoon in her mouth. But she got courage to pursue true love, which was very difficult at the time of Charlotte.

可能她并不是出生在高贵家庭。可是她有勇气去寻找真爱。这种勇气在夏洛特时代是一件非常难得事情。

Rebecca: Spiritually, she was looking for true love. Don’t you agree with me that she left partly because she knew that her man wouldn’t actually elope with her? When Jane inherited her uncle’s fortune and her man’s wife died, they were a match economically.

精神上来说，她在寻找真爱。你不认为她离开了，部分原因是他知道她所爱的男人不会跟她私奔?当简继承了她叔叔的遗产以后，他们才经济基础上对等。

Jessica: Come on. Are you saying that love is impossible without money? Don’t you have faith?

得了吧。你是说没有经济基础的爱情是不可能的?你没有信仰吗?

Rebecca: I do. I have faith in myself.

我有。我相信我自己。
