<< review queue entry 53474 - submitted by 'richwarm' >> A J TP ~ 搬來以後，從來沒有在鄉下住過的她開始面對現實。山裡沒有路燈，入夜後，到處漆黑一片，讓過慣燈火通明夜生活的她，感到寂寞與恐懼；郊野的房子，防不了蜘蛛、蟲、蛇入屋，更常把她嚇得魂飛魄散。 Having never lived in the country before, moving in meant facing reality. There are no street lights in the mountains and nights are pitch black. It made Li, who was used to lights at night, feel lonely and frightened. And country houses don't keep out insects, spiders or snakes, a situation which very nearly scared the wits out of her. 自己少年時窮日子過慣了，只盼孩子少吃點苦。 過慣都市現代化生活，又是唯一不會唱戲的這個台北媳婦，每回都是假期結束，就趕快落荒而逃。 It was an awkward situation for a modern city girl, the only one in the family who couldn't sing opera, and Sun was always glad to get away when the vacation came to an end. 吳老先生說，因他年紀老邁，寧靜的生活過慣了，不欲在心波上再翻舊事起漣漪，激動的往事不宜他九十高齡太多的回想 Mr. Wu has said that as he is very advanced in years and has become very accustomed to his peaceful life, he does not want to recall past events. 更令人啼笑皆非的是，過慣舒服日子的老美同事，20年沒見過蹲式廁所，私下問他：「要怎麼上？褲子要不要脫下來？拉到多高？頭要朝哪個方向？」等等。 Even more amusing was that his American colleagues, to the chagrin of Wang who had not seen a squat toilet in 20 years, asked him, "How do you use it? Do I have to take my pants off? How far do I pull them down? Which way do I face?" |
