文/liangchaoxford 广东凉茶煲牛津一昨日流量收入0.85元。这是第50天阅读英文版《傲慢与偏见》。“I would not be so fastidious as you are,” cried Bingley, “for a kingdom! Upon my honour, I never met with so many pleasant girls in my life, as I have this evening; and there are several of them you see uncommonly pretty.”这段文字是什么意思呢，我瞄了一眼陌生词的简洁注释，因此，我把这段文字的中文写这里：“我没有你那样挑剔”，宾利大叫着，“就是给我一个王国！我以荣誉保证，我从来没见过这么多漂亮的姑娘们，除了今晚；你看到的那几个姑娘多么漂亮啊。”我把几个略微陌生的词汇给出简洁注释，这是我查阅的：1. fastidious词性：形容词含义：挑剔的；讲究的；难以取悦的用法：挑剔2. kingdom词性：名词含义：王国；领域；管辖范围用法：“for a kingdom”，“无论如何也不”。3. honour词性：名词含义：名誉；荣誉；信用用法：“Upon my honour”，“我以名誉担保”。4. pleasant词性：形容词含义：令人愉快的；可爱的；友好的用法：“pleasant girls”，姑娘们很可爱、令人愉快。5. several词性：形容词含义：几个的；数个的用法：“several of them”，好几个。6. uncommonly词性：副词含义：极其；非常；罕见地用法：“uncommonly pretty”，非常漂亮。二为了更好的理解这段文字，我逐句拆解阅读：1. "I would not be so fastidious as you are," cried Bingley, "for a kingdom!"fastidious：挑剔的，讲究的。for a kingdom：这个表达夸张，是“无论如何也不”。2. "Upon my honour, I never met with so many pleasant girls in my life, as I have this evening;"Upon my honour：固定短语，“我以名誉担保”。pleasant：令人愉快的，可爱的。3. "and there are several of them you see uncommonly pretty."several：几个的，数个的。uncommonly：极其，非常。这段文字是宾利认为今晚舞会上的姑娘很漂亮，达西太挑剔了。那么，接下来会怎么呢？看后续的文本。
