[00:01.07]Only three entries really caught my attention: the Romanian Varacolaci, 只有三個(gè)條目真正地吸引了我的注意力：羅馬尼亞的維拉可拉斯， [00:06.66]a powerful undead being who could appear as a beautiful, pale-skinned human, 一個(gè)強(qiáng)大的不死生物，通常以俊美的、肌膚蒼白的人類形態(tài)出現(xiàn); [00:10.90]the Slovak Nelapsi, a creature so strong 斯洛伐克的耐拉斯，一種極其強(qiáng)壯， [00:14.91]and fast it could massacre an entire village in the single hour after midnight, 速度奇快的生物，午夜之后它能在一個(gè)小時(shí)之內(nèi)屠殺掉整個(gè)村子的人; [00:19.93]and one other, the Stregoni benefici. 還有一個(gè)，斯特崗尼亞，有益的吸血鬼， [00:23.65]About this last there was only one brief sentence. 關(guān)于最后這個(gè)吸血鬼的描述只有一個(gè)簡(jiǎn)短的句子。 [00:28.26]Stregoni benefici: An Italian vampire, said to be on the side of goodness, 斯特崗尼亞，有益的吸血鬼：一種意大利吸血鬼，據(jù)說(shuō)是美德的保護(hù)者， [00:34.60]and a mortal enemy of all evil vampires. 是所有邪惡吸血鬼最致命的敵人。 [00:37.88]It was a relief, that one small entry, the one myth among hundreds 這個(gè)短短的傳說(shuō)實(shí)在是一種寬慰，在上百條傳說(shuō)之中， [00:43.29]that claimed the existence of good vampires. 這是僅有的宣稱存在著有好的吸血鬼的一條。 [00:45.94]Overall, though, there was little that coincided with Jacob's stories or my own observations. 但是，總的說(shuō)來(lái)，這里沒(méi)有太多內(nèi)容和雅克布的故事或者我的觀察結(jié)果有關(guān)。 [00:52.07]I'd made a little catalogue in my mind as I'd read and carefully compared it with each myth. 我一邊看，一邊在心里列了一份小小的列表，用來(lái)跟每條傳說(shuō)逐一對(duì)比。 [00:58.20]Speed, strength, beauty, pale skin, eyes that shift color; 速度，強(qiáng)壯，美麗，蒼白的肌膚，會(huì)變色的眼睛， [01:05.40]and then Jacob's criteria: blood drinkers, enemies of the werewolf, cold-skinned, and immortal. 還有雅克布的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)：飲血者，狼人的天敵，冰冷的肌膚，以及永恒的生命。 [01:13.01]There were very few myths that matched even one factor. 沒(méi)有多少傳說(shuō)能符合至少一個(gè)的因素。 [01:16.88]And then another problem, one that I'd remembered from the small number of scary movies that I'd seen 還有另一個(gè)問(wèn)題。我記得在我看過(guò)的寥寥無(wú)幾的恐怖電影里提到過(guò)， [01:23.55]and was backed up by today's reading — vampires couldn't come out in the daytime, 再加上我今天所看的內(nèi)容——吸血鬼不能在白天出沒(méi)， [01:28.53]the sun would burn them to a cinder. They slept in coffins all day and came out only at night. 陽(yáng)光會(huì)把他們燒成灰燼的。白天他們都睡在棺材里面，只在夜里出來(lái)活動(dòng)。 [01:34.25]Aggravated, I snapped off the computer's main power switch, not waiting to shut things down properly. 一氣之下，我啪地一下關(guān)掉了電腦的電源，不想再干等著按部就班地關(guān)閉電腦。 [01:40.82]Through my irritation, I felt overwhelming embarrassment. 在怒火之外，我更感到了壓倒性的窘迫。 [01:44.36]It was all so stupid. I was sitting in my room, researching vampires. 這一切都太愚蠢了。我居然坐在自己的房間里，搜索著吸血鬼。 [01:48.68]What was wrong with me? I decided that most of the blame belonged on the doorstep of the town of Forks 我到底是怎么了?我決定把大部分的指責(zé)歸咎于?？怂规?zhèn)的門檻， [01:55.49]and the entire sodden Olympic Peninsula, for that matter. 還有整個(gè)濕漉漉的奧林匹克半島。
