Lesson 127 A famous actress¶

原文译文

Can you recognize that woman, Liz?

I think I can, Kate. It must be Karen Marsh, the actress.

I thought so. Who's that beside her?

That must be Conrad Reeves.

Conrad Reeves, the actor? It can't be. Let me have another look. I think you're right! Isn't he her third husband?

No. He must be her fourth or fifth.

Doesn't Karen Marsh look old!

She does, doesn't she! I read she's twenty-nine, but she must be at least forty.

I'm sure she is.

She was a famous actress when I was still at school.

That was a long time ago, wasn't it?

Not that long ago! I'm not more than twenty-nine myself.

你能认出那个女人吗，莉兹？

我想我能，凯特。那一定是卡伦·马什，那位女演员。

我也这么想。她旁边的是谁？

那一定是康拉德·里夫斯。

康拉德·里夫斯，那个男演员？不可能。让我再看一眼。我想你是对的！他不是她的第三任丈夫吗？

不。他一定是她的第四任或第五任丈夫。

卡伦·马什看上去真老！

是的，不是吗！我读到她29岁，但她一定至少40岁了。

我肯定她至少40岁。

当我还在上学时，她就是一个著名的女演员了。

那是很久以前的事了，不是吗？

也没那么久！我自己还不到29岁呢。
