Debbie: Okay, I’m off. I’ll be back around eight o’clock.
黛比:好,我走了,大概八点左右回来。
Marcelo: Hey, where are you going in such a hurry?
马塞洛:嘿,这么急匆匆的要去哪儿?
Debbie: I’m going to my religious education class.
黛比:我要去上宗教课程。
Marcelo: Religious education class? What’s that about?
马塞洛:宗教课程?是关于什么的?
Debbie: Well, I’ve decided to convert to McQuillanism.
黛比:呃,我决定转信仰麦克奎蓝教义。
Marcelo: I’m not familiar with that denomination. It is Christian, isn’t it?
马塞洛:我不熟悉那个教派,是基督教吗?
Debbie: No, it isn’t, but there are some similarities in the spiritual teachings between McQuillanism and Christianity, but we have different ways of worshiping – different prayers, hymns, and rituals.
黛比:不是,但是麦克奎蓝教义跟基督教义在精神教诲方面有些相似处。
Marcelo: It doesn’t sound legit. Are you sure McQuillanism isn’t really a cult?
马塞洛:听起来不是很正统,你确定麦克奎蓝教不是邪教?
Debbie: Of course not. My spiritual leader has been tutoring me on the tenets of the faith so I understand it, but I can see why you’d question it, since you don’t know anything about it.
黛比:当然不是,我的精神领袖教导我一些信条和教义,因此,我理解。但是我明白你为什么会有疑问,因为你对其一无所知。
Marcelo: Well, as long as you’re satisfied.
马塞洛:好吧,只要你确信就好。
Debbie: I am and I can’t wait to become a full- fledged McQuillanite. McQuillanism is a little unconventional, but we take our faith very seriously.
黛比:我当然确定,并且已经等不及要成为一个完全的麦克奎蓝教徒。麦克奎蓝教义有一点标新立异,但是我们的信仰很严肃。
Marcelo: Have it your way. What’s that you’re carrying?
马塞洛:你按你的想法做事,你拿的什么?
Debbie: It’s a cat costume. As I said, we do things a little differently.
黛比:一套猫样子的戏服,我说了,我们做的事有一点不同。
Marcelo: I’m sorry I asked.
马塞洛:对不起,我问多了。
