I once spent an uncomfortable weekend which I shall never forget at his house.
有一次,我在他家里度周末,过得很不愉快。这事我永远不会忘记。
George showed me to the guestroom which, he said, was rarely used.
乔治把我领进客房,说这间很少使用。
He told me to unpack my things and then come down to dinner.
他让我打开行装后下楼吃饭。
After I had stacked my shirts and underclothes in two empty drawers, I decided to hang
one of the two suits I had brought with me in the cupboard.
我将衬衫、内衣放进两个空抽屉里,然后我想把随身带来的两套西服中的一套挂到大衣柜
里去。
I opened the cupboard door and then stood in front of it petrified.
我打开柜门,站在柜门前一下惊呆了。
A skeleton was dangling before my eyes.
一具骷髅悬挂在眼前,
The sudden movement of the door made it sway slightly and it gave me the impression
that it was about to leap out at me.
由于柜门突然打开,它也随之轻微摇晃起来,让我觉得它好像马上要跳出柜门朝我扑过来
似的。
Dropping my suit, I dashed downstairs to tell George.
我扔下西服冲下楼去告诉乔治。
This was worse than 'a terrible secret'; this was a real skeleton!
这是比“骇人听闻的秘密”更加惊人的东西,这是一具真正的骷髅啊!
But George was unsympathetic. 'Oh, that,' he said with a smile as if he were talking
about an old friend.
但乔治却无动于衷。“噢,是它呀!他笑着说道,俨然在谈论一位老朋友。
That's Sebastian. You forget that I was a medical student once upon a time.'
“那是塞巴斯蒂安。你忘了我以前是学医的了。”
