标题[英中] 天字第一句 (傲慢与偏见)
时间Sun Oct 3 14:30:02 2010
It is a truth universally acknowledged,
that a single man
in possession of a good fortune
must be
in want of a wife.
Jane Austen, Pride and Prejudice
有件事实,举世皆知:单身汉而多金,必定缺个老婆。
有件事是举世公认的真理:单身汉而有财,想必需要娶妻。
珍姐此句也算 one of the most famous opening lines in the literature world 了
原文不但用字精简对仗工整,而且充满 bathos 突降反差的强烈对比与荒唐趣味
机锋无限,难怪名句~~
