Iris: I’m thinking of inviting Simone and Jerry over for dinner. 
艾瑞斯：我正在考虑要邀请西蒙和杰瑞过来吃晚饭。
Alex: This isn’t another attempt at matchmaking, is it? Jerry is a confirmed bachelor and he’s not looking to marry or become involved in a relationship. 
艾利克斯：这不是又一次的牵线搭桥吧？杰瑞是独身主义者，他不希望结婚或者陷入到这种关系中。
Iris: He’s not a confirmed bachelor. In this neighborhood with so many single women, he’s an eligible bachelor. 
艾瑞斯：他不是个独身主义者，在这个街区，有很多单身女性，他是个黄金单身汉。
Alex: You mean in this neighborhood full of old spinsters! Stop trying to set him up with one of them. 
艾利克斯：你是说这个街区有很多大龄未婚女子！不要试图把她们其中的某一个介绍给他。
Iris: How do you know he doesn’t want a relationship? Maybe he’s just shy and needs a little prodding. Maybe he has a fear of commitment and we can all help him overcome it. 
艾瑞斯：你怎么知道他不想谈恋爱呢？也许他只是有点害羞，需要一点鼓励，也许他有点恐婚，我们可以帮他克服恐惧。
Alex: Maybe he just wants to be left alone by meddling neighbors and ladies on the prowl. There are many benefits to remaining a bachelor. 
艾利克斯：也许他只是想独自一人，不想别人干预生活，而且这些女士在寻找目标。当个单身汉有很多好处。
Iris: You mean living a celibate and empty life? 
艾瑞斯：你是说过一种禁欲和空虚的生活？
Alex: You’re making too many assumptions. You don’t know the first thing about his life and whether he’s happy or not. In many ways, a bachelor’s life is idyllic. 
艾利克斯：你设定太多假设了。你都不知道他生活的第一手信息，他是否开心。从多方面来说，单身汉的生活很悠闲。
Iris: How can you say that? 
艾瑞斯：你怎么能那样说呢？
Alex: Would any bachelor have to have this conversation with anyone, ever? 
艾利克斯：那是不是所有的单身汉都需要跟别人谈论一下这个话题呢？
