Pride and Prejudice

Pride and prejudice(实用英语简抄） 最近在读的原著，故事似乎对我的吸引力不大！倒是书中很多句子觉得很实用。放在这里和大家交流，分享！ 1.It is a truth universally acknowledged! （书的开场第一句，这已经是一条举世公认的真理了） 2.You want to tell me,I and I have no objection to hearing it. (既是你一定要说给我听，那我听听也无妨。觉得这句话根据不同场合改装一下相当实用） 3.This was invitation enough. (这是针对上句话来说的，这句话足够鼓励他讲下去了） 4.When a woman has five grown up girls,she ought to give up thinking of her own beauty! (可改装成-When a student has failed all his subjects,he ought to give up thinking of his own intelligence!够伤人的。。。（原文是说一个女人家如果已经有了5个成年的女儿就不应该在对自己的美貌报什么幻想了） 5.It is more than I engage for,I assure you. (老实跟你说吧，这可不是我的份内事） 6.But consider you daughters,only think what a establishment it would be for one of them. (想想你的女儿吧，能攀上这样一户人家对她们该多好） 7.She is determined to go,merely on that account.

(她们和其它女孩一样愚蠢无知） 13.You take delight in vixing me. （你是故意叫我恼气） 14.I'v heared you mention them with conderation these twenty years at least. (至少在最近20年来，我一直听到你镇重其事的提起他们） 15.She is so odd mixture of quick parts,sarcastic,humour,reserve,and caprice. (她真是个古怪的人，一方面喜欢插科打浑，挖苦人，同时又不抅言笑，变幻莫测） 16.When she was discontented,she fancied herself nervous. (只要遇到不顺心的事，她就以为自己神经衰弱）
