暮光之城?暮色 第15期:初見(jiàn)(5)

[00:00.18] I glanced sideways at the beautiful boy, who was looking at his tray now, 我用眼角匆匆瞥了那個(gè)漂亮的男孩子一眼，只見(jiàn)他正看著盤(pán)子， [00:04.29] picking a bagel to pieces with long, pale fingers. 用他白皙而修長(zhǎng)的手指把面包圈撕成小塊扔進(jìn)嘴里。 [00:07.33] His mouth was moving very quickly, his perfect lips barely opening. 他的嘴動(dòng)得非?？?，兩片完美的嘴唇之間僅僅露著一條縫。 [00:12.58] The other three still looked away, and yet I felt he was speaking quietly to them. 其余的三個(gè)依然望著一邊，不過(guò)我感覺(jué)到他在悄悄地跟他們說(shuō)著什么。 [00:18.35] Strange, unpopular names, I thought. 古怪的，少見(jiàn)的名字，我尋思著。 [00:21.45] The kinds of names grandparents had. 爺爺奶奶們才用這種名字呀。 [00:24.19] But maybe that was in vogue here - small town names? 不過(guò)，也許是這兒時(shí)興呢——小鎮(zhèn)上的名字? [00:28.04] I finally remembered that my neighbor was called Jessica, a perfectly common name. 我終于想起來(lái)了，我旁邊的女孩叫杰西卡，一個(gè)非常普通的名字。 [00:32.52] There were two girls named Jessica in my History class back home. 我家那邊，歷史課班上就有兩個(gè)叫杰西卡的女孩。 [00:37.11] " They are ... very nice looking." "他們……長(zhǎng)得很好看呢。" [00:39.49] I struggled with the conspicuous understatement. 我努力用明顯輕描淡寫(xiě)的語(yǔ)氣掩飾自己心中的驚嘆。 [00:42.51] " Yes!" Jessica agreed with another giggle. "對(duì)!"杰西卡又咯咯地笑起來(lái)表示認(rèn)同， [00:45.26] " They 're all together though - Emmett and Rosalie, and Jasper and Alice, I mean. "只是，他們?nèi)荚谝黄稹沂侵?，埃美特和羅莎莉，還有賈斯帕和愛(ài)麗絲。 [00:51.18] And they live together. 而且，他們還住在一起。" [00:52.31] " Her voice held all the shock and condemnation of the small town, I thought critically. 我苛刻地想，她的語(yǔ)調(diào)包含了小鎮(zhèn)上所有人對(duì)此表示震驚和指責(zé)的心聲。 [00:59.01] But, if I was being honest, I had to admit that even in Phoenix, it would cause gossip. 不過(guò)實(shí)話實(shí)說(shuō)，我不得不承認(rèn)，這樣的事，就是放到鳳凰城，也會(huì)引起風(fēng)言風(fēng)語(yǔ)的。 [01:04.03] " Which ones are the Cullens?" I asked. "哪幾個(gè)是卡倫家的孩子?"我問(wèn)， [01:07.33] " They do not look related ..." "他們看上去不像有血緣關(guān)系……" [01:08.96] Oh, they 're not. "噢，他們不是卡倫家的孩子。 [01:10.44] Dr. Cullen is really young, in his twenties or early thirties. 卡倫大夫其實(shí)很年輕，才二十幾歲或者三十出頭。 [01:15.48] They 're all adopted. 他們都是收養(yǎng)的。 [01:17.13] The Hales are brother and sister, twins - the blondes - and they 're foster children. 姓黑爾的兩個(gè)是姐弟倆，雙胞胎——金發(fā)的那兩個(gè)——他們是領(lǐng)養(yǎng)的孩子。" [01:24.07] They look a little old for foster children. "作為領(lǐng)養(yǎng)的孩子，他們年齡偏大了一點(diǎn)吧。" [01:26.12] They are now, Jasper and Rosalie are both eighteen, "他倆現(xiàn)在，賈斯帕和羅莎莉都是十八， [01:30.44] but they 've been with Mrs. Cullen since they were eight. 可他倆八歲就跟卡倫太太在一起了。 [01:33.27] She's their aunt or something like that. 她是他倆的姑姑之類(lèi)的。" [01:36.54] That's really kind of nice - for them to take care of all those kids like that, "他們真是心地善良的好人，就照看這么多的孩子。" [01:40.36] when they 're so young and everything. 這么年輕， [01:42.66] I guess so," Jessica admitted reluctantly, "我想也是，"杰西卡的回答有些勉強(qiáng)， [01:45.93] and I got the impression that she did not like the doctor and his wife for some reason. 而且我得出了這么個(gè)印象，覺(jué)得她出于某種原因，不太喜歡那個(gè)大夫和他妻子。 [01:50.46] With the glances she was throwing at their adopted children, I would presume the reason was jealousy. 從她看他們收養(yǎng)的那些孩子的眼神中，我推測(cè)這個(gè)原因就是嫉妒。 [01:56.35] " I think that Mrs. Cullen can not have any kids, though," she added, as if that lessened their kindness. "不過(guò)，我認(rèn)為卡倫太太生不了孩子。"她補(bǔ)了一句，仿佛這樣可以讓他們的善良打點(diǎn)兒折扣似的。 [02:03.11] Throughout all this conversation, my eyes flickered again and again to the table where the strange family sat. 整個(gè)交談過(guò)程中，我不止一次地把目光移向那素昧平生的一家人坐的那張桌子。 [02:09.35] They continued to look at the walls and not eat. 他們依然望著四壁，沒(méi)有吃東西。 [02:11.56] " Have they always lived in Forks?" I asked. "他們一直住在?？怂箚?"我問(wèn)。 [02:15.53] Surely I would have noticed them on one of my summers here. 無(wú)疑當(dāng)我在這里度過(guò)某個(gè)夏天的時(shí)候，我就應(yīng)該注意到他們了。 [02:19.26] " No," she said in a voice that implied it should be obvious, even to a new arrival like me. "不，"她說(shuō)，聽(tīng)她的語(yǔ)氣，好像含有一種即使對(duì)我這樣初來(lái)乍到的人來(lái)說(shuō)，答案也是明擺著的意思， [02:25.10] " They just moved down two years ago from somewhere in Alaska." "他們是兩年前才從阿拉斯加的某個(gè)地方搬來(lái)的。" [02:28.45] I felt a surge of pity,and relief. 我頓時(shí)涌起了一陣同情，也感到了一絲慰藉。 [02:33.00] Pity because, as beautiful as they were, they were outsiders, clearly not accepted. 同情，是因?yàn)楸M管他們貌若天仙，卻是外地來(lái)的，顯然沒(méi)有為當(dāng)?shù)厝私蛹{。 [02:38.40] Relief that I was not the only newcomer here, and certainly not the most interesting by any standard. 慰藉，是因?yàn)槲也皇沁@兒惟一新來(lái)的，而且無(wú)論按什么標(biāo)準(zhǔn)，我無(wú)疑也不是最令人關(guān)注的對(duì)象。 [02:44.35] As I examined them, the youngest, one of the Cullens, looked up and met my gaze, 我打量他們的時(shí)候，最小的那個(gè)，卡倫兄妹中的一個(gè)，抬頭和我的目光不期而遇， [02:49.41] this time with evident curiosity in his expression. 這一次，他的表情里充滿了明顯的好奇。 [02:53.30] As I looked swiftly away, it seemed to me that his glance held some kind of unmet expectation. 我趕緊把目光移開(kāi)了，在我看來(lái)，他的眼神里似乎有著某種未能得到滿足的期待。
