Pride and Prejudice(excerpt)
When the ladies removed after dinner, Elizabeth ran up to her sister, and, seeing her well guarded from cold, attended her into the drawing-room; where she was welcomed by her two friends with many professions of pleasure; and Elizabeth had never seen them so agreeable as they were during the hour which passed before the gentlemen appeared. Their powers of conversation were considerable. They could describe an entertainment with accuracy, relate an anecdote with humour, and laugh at their acquaintance with spirit.
But when the gentlemen entered, Jane was no longer the first object. Miss Bingley’s eyes were instantly turned towards Darcy, and she had something to say to him before he had advanced many steps. He addressed himself directly to Miss Bennet, with a polite congratulation; Mr Hurst also made her a slight bow, and said he was “very glad; ” but diffuseness and warmth remained for Bingley’s salutation. He was full of joy and attention. The first half hour was spent in piling up the fire, lest she should suffer from the change of room; and she removed at his desire to the other side of the fireplace, that she might be farther from the door. He then sat down by her, and talked scarcely to any one else. Elizabeth, at work in the opposite corner, saw it all with great delight.
When tea was over, Mr Hurst reminded his sister-in-law of the card-table—but in vain. She had obtained private intelligence that Mr Darcy did not wish for cards; and Mr Hurst soon found even his open petition rejected. She assured him that no one intended to play, and the silence of the whole party on the subject seemed to justify her. Mr Hurst had therefore nothing to do but to stretch himself on one of the sophas and go to sleep. Darcy took up a book; Miss Bingley did the same; and Mrs Hurst, principally occupied in playing with her bracelets and rings, joined now and then in her brother’s conversation with Miss Bennet.
Miss Bingley’s attention was quite as much engaged in watching Mr Darcy’s progress through his book, as in reading her own; and she was perpetually either making some inquiry, or looking at his page. She could not win him, however, to any conversation; he merely answered her question, and read on. At length, quite exhausted by the attempt to be amused with her own book, which she had only chosen because it was the second volume of his, she gave a great yawn and said, “How pleasant it is to spend an evening in this way! I declare after all there is no enjoyment like reading! How much sooner one tires of any thing than of a book! —When I have a house of my own, I shall be miserable if I have not an excellent library. ”
No one made any reply. She then yawned again, threw aside her book, and cast her eyes round the room in quest of some amusement; when, hearing her brother mentioning a ball to Miss Bennet, she turned suddenly towards him and said, “By the bye, Charles, are you really serious in meditating a dance at Netherfield —I would advise you, before you determine on it, to consult the wishes of the present party; I am much mistaken if there are not some among us to whom a ball would be rather a punishment than a pleasure. ”
“If you mean Darcy, ” cried her brother, “he may go to bed, if he chuses, before it begins—but as for the ball, it is quite a settled thing; and as soon as Nicholls has made white soup enough I shall send round my cards. ”

译文:
《傲慢与偏见》(节选)
当女士们吃过晚饭离开的时候, 伊丽莎白就跑到她姐姐那里, 看她穿戴得妥妥帖帖, 不会着凉, 便陪着她去客厅。她的两个朋友见到她, 都表示欢迎, 一个个都说非常高兴。在男客们没有来的那一个钟头里, 她们是那么和蔼可亲, 伊丽莎白从来不曾看到过。她们的健谈本领相当大, 描述起宴会来纤毫入微, 说起故事来风趣横溢, 讥笑起一个熟人来也是有声有色。
可是男客们一走进来, 简就不怎么引人注目了。达西一进门, 彬格莱小姐的眼睛就立刻转到他身上去, 要跟他说话。达西首先向班纳特小姐问好, 客客气气地祝贺她病休复元; 赫斯脱先生也对她微微一鞠躬, 说是见到她“非常高兴”; 但是说到语气周到, 情意恳切, 可就比不上彬格莱先生那几声问候。彬格莱才算得上情深意切, 满怀欢欣。开头半小时完全消磨在添煤上面, 生怕屋子里冷起来会叫病人受不了。简依照彬格莱的话, 移坐到火炉的另一边去, 那样她就离开门口远一些, 免得受凉。接着他自己在她身旁坐下, 一心跟她说话, 简直不理睬别人。伊丽莎白正在对面角落里做活计, 把这全部情景都看在眼里, 感到无限高兴。
喝过茶以后, 赫斯脱先生提醒他的小姨子把牌桌摆好, 可是没有用。她早就看出达西先生不想打牌, 因此赫斯脱先生后来公开提出要打牌也被她拒绝了。她跟他说, 谁也不想玩牌, 只见全场对这件事都不作声, 看来她的确没有说错。因此, 赫斯脱先生无事可做, 只得躺在沙发上打瞌睡。达西拿起一本书来。彬格莱小姐也拿起一本书来。赫斯脱太太聚精会神地在玩弄自己的手镯和指环, 偶尔也在她弟弟跟班纳特小姐的对话中插几句嘴。
彬格莱小姐一边看达西读书, 一边自己读书, 两件事同时并做, 都是半心半意。她老是向他问句什么, 或者是看他读到哪一页。不过, 她总是没有办法逗他说话; 她问一句他就答一句, 答过以后便继续读他的书。彬格莱小姐刚刚挑的那一本书, 只不过因为那是达西所读的第二卷, 她本想读个津津有味, 不料这会儿倒读得筋疲力尽了。她打了个哈欠, 说道: “这样度过一个晚上, 真是多么愉快啊! 我说呀, 什么娱乐也抵不上读书的乐趣。无论干什么事, 都是一上手就要厌倦, 读书却不会这样! 将来有一天我自己有了家, 要是没有个很好的书房, 那会多遗憾。”
谁也没有理睬她。于是她又打了个哈欠, 抛开书本, 在整个房间里望了一圈, 要想找点儿什么东西消遣消遣, 这时忽听得她哥哥跟班纳特小姐说要开一次舞会, 她就猛地掉过头来对他说: “这样说, 查尔斯, 你真打算在尼日斐花园开一次舞会吗 我劝你最好还是先征求一下在场朋友们的意见再做决定吧。这里面就会有人觉得跳舞是受罪, 而不是娱乐, 要是没有这种人, 你怪我好了。”
“如果你指的是达西, ”她的哥哥大声说, “那么, 他可以在跳舞开始以前就上床去睡觉, 随他的便好啦。舞会已经决定了非开不可, 只等尼可尔斯把一切都准备好了, 我就下请帖。”

我知道我们都得到一样东西
那就是我们都在分享的
我们都拥有一个美好的梦想
我们为之生存
你不会知道生活会给你带来什么
因为没有什么能永恒
只是坚持住
为了你所努力的团队
我知道你会达到顶峰
你一定不要停下来
做那个你一直都想成为的人

但这没关系
我们都赶上了这次人生之旅

因为我得到了所有的爱, 我得到了你赐予我 的所有的爱
