Stacey: I have a date with George this Saturday. I can’t wait!
史黛丝:这周六我和乔治有个约会,我都等不及了。
Brad: Have a good time, but you know what the word on the street is about George, don’t you?
布莱德:那祝你玩的愉快,但是你知道街上的人是怎么说乔治的,不是吗?
Stacey: What?
史黛丝:什么?
Brad: He’s not the marrying kind.
布莱德:他是不婚族啊!
Stacey: Oh, he just hasn’t met the right girl yet. When he does, he’ll be ready to settle down.
史黛丝:哦,他只是还没遇到对的人而已。当他遇到对的人,自然就想安定下来啦!
Brad: I don’t think so. Women who have gone out with him have told me that he’s up front with them: he has no intention of tying the knot – ever.
布莱德:我不这样认为,跟他约会过的女孩参加告诉过我,乔治曾在她们面前坦白,他不打算结婚,永远都不会。
Stacey: Do you think he’s a commitment phobe?
史黛丝:你认为他害怕给人承诺?
Brad: I have no idea. I just know that he likes to play the field and anyone who dates him should not try to reform him.
布莱德:我不知道,我只知道他恋爱不专一,和他交往的任何人都不要试图改变他。
Stacey: I wouldn’t try to reform him. I think he’ll just fall head over heels in love with me and he’ll put his philandering ways behind him.
史黛丝:我并不想试图改变他,我认为他会和我沉浸爱河,他也会改掉他沾花惹草的坏毛病的。
Brad: Don’t count on it.
布莱德:你可别指望他那样。
Stacey: I’m convinced of it.
史黛丝:我坚信他会变好的。
Brad: I’m always surprised by the degree to which women can delude themselves when it comes to love!
布莱德:恋爱中的女人已经愚蠢到可以欺骗自己的地步,真让我感到惊讶。
