荧屏情景

第18周 在旅馆

荧屏情景：

星期二 参观房间 片段选自《罗丹岛之恋》 Nights In Rodanthe 13:28--14:10

Adrienne: It's called the Blue Room. Oh, the hot water, you may have to give it a little time to burble up at you. If you need any extra blankets, towels, anything, don't hesitate to ask. After all, you are the only guest. If you're lucky, you'll see bankers. That's the wild ponies that were descendents of the horses... that were shipwrecked here hundreds of years ago. They swam miles to shore. Well, uh, dinner's at 8. Or 7, 7:30 if you'd prefer. Whatever time you'd like because you are...
艾德里安：这间叫蓝屋。哦，如果需要热水，你得等一会，听见水响才行。如果需要添毛毯毛巾或别的东西，尽管说。毕竟，你是唯一的客人。运气好的话，你会看到猎马。那是矮种野马。它们的祖先几世纪前因为海难游到了这里。还有8点吃晚饭。7点或7点半也可以。如果你喜欢，什么时间都可以，因为……
Flanner: I'm the only guest. Seven-thirty's great.
弗兰纳：我是唯一的客人。7点半最好。
Adrienne: Yes.
艾德里安：好的。
