Listen to the tape then answer this question: Who is only twenty-nine, and why is it so unclear?
KATE: | Can you recognize that woman, Liz? 莉兹,你能认出那个女人吗? |
LIZ: | I think I can, Kate. 我想我认得出来,凯特。 It must be Karen Marsh, the actress. 那一定是女演员卡伦·马什。 |
KATE: | I thought so. 我也这样想。 Who's that beside her? 她旁边的那个人是谁? |
LIZ: | That must be Conrad Reeves. 一定是康拉德·里夫斯。 |
KATE: | Conrad Reeves, the actor? 康拉德·里夫斯,那个男演员? It can't be. 不可能是。 Let me have another look. 让我再看一看。 I think you're right! 我想你是对的! Isn't he her third husband? 他不是她的第3任丈夫吗? |
LIZ: | No. 不 He must be her fourth or fifth. 他一定是她的第4任或第5任丈夫。 |
KATE: | Doesn't Karen Marsh look old! 卡伦看上去可够老的! |
LIZ: | She does, doesn't she! 是的,谁说不是呢。 I read she's twenty-nine, but she must be at least forty. 我从报上看到她是29岁,但她一定至少有40岁了。 |
KATE: | I'm sure she is. 我肯定她有40岁了。 |
LIZ: | She was a famous actress when I was still at school. 当我还是学生时,她就是个著名的演员了。 |
KATE: | That was a long time ago, wasn't it? 那是好久以前的事了,是吗? |
LIZ: | Not that long ago! 不,没有那么久。 I'm not more than twenty-nine myself. 我自己现在还没29岁呢。 |
