Most ardently. Please do me the honour of accepting my hand. 伊丽莎白:Sir, I appreciate the struggle you have been through, and I am very sorry to have caused you .It was unconsciously done.达西: Is this your reply?伊丽莎白:Yes, sir.达西: Are you laughing at me?伊丽莎白: No.达西: Are you rejecting me?伊丽莎白:I'm sure the feelings which hindered your regard will help you overcome it. 达西: Might I ask why with so little civility I am thus repulsed?伊丽莎白:I might enquire why you told me you liked me against your better judgement ?If I was uncivil, then that is some excuse. But you know I have other reasons.达西: What reasons?伊丽莎白:Do you think anything might tempt me to accept the man who has ruined the happiness of a most beloved sister?Do you deny that you separated a young couple who loved each other, exposing your friend to censure for caprice and my sister to derision for disappointed hopes, involving them both in acute misery?达西:I do not deny it.伊丽莎白: How could you do it?达西:I believed your sister indifferent to him.伊丽莎白:Indifferent?达西:I realised his attachment was deeper than hers.伊丽莎白:She's shy!达西:Bingley was persuaded she didn't feel strongly.伊丽莎白:You suggested it.达西:I suggested it For his own good.伊丽莎白:My sister hardly shows her true feelings to me.

Thank you. Perhaps these offences might have been overlooked had not your pride been hurt by my scruples about our relationship.

Our uncle is in London helping in the search.母亲:Lydia must know what this must be doing to my nerves. Such flutterings and spasms all over me!My baby Lydia, my baby! How could she do such a thing to her poor mama?(母亲下,其余人上)妹妹之一:【Papa, there's a letter.】爸爸:- Let me catch my breath.伊丽莎白:It's in Uncle's writing.爸爸:- He's found them.伊丽莎白:Are they married?爸爸:- I can't make out his script. –伊丽莎白(从父手中夺信):Give it to me.They will be if Father settles £1 00 a year on her. That is his condition.- You will agree to this, Father?爸爸- Of course.God knows how much your uncle must've laid on that wretched man.伊丽莎白:What do you mean?爸爸:No man would marry Lydia under so slight a temptation as £1 00 a year.Your uncle must've been very generous.大姐Jane:Do you think it a large sum?伊丽莎白:Wickham's a fool if he accepts less than £1 0,000.-大姐:£10,000 Heaven forbid!伊丽莎白:- Father!Aside: Lydia and Wickham are soon found, then married by the clergy; Elizabeth discover, from her Aunt Mrs. Gardiner, that in fact Mr. Darcy was responsible for finding the couple and negotiating their marriage, at great personal and monetary expense. Elizabeth is shocked but is unable to dwell further on the topic due to Mr Bingley's return and subsequent proposal to Jane, who immediately accepts.(Lady Catherine de Bourgh later bursts in on Longbourn warns Elizabeth against marrying Mr Darcy. Elizabeth refuses her demands.However, this lends hope to Darcy that Elizabeth's opinion of him may have changed. )The Six ActPlace:GardenCharacters: Elizabeth() Mr. Darcy()(伊丽莎白先上,达西后上)伊丽莎白:I couldn't sleep.达西:Nor I. My aunt...伊丽莎白:Yes, she was here.How can I ever make amends for such behaviour?After what you've done for Lydia and, I suspect, for Jane, it is I who should be making amends.达西:You must know. Surely you must know it was all for you.You are too generous to trifle with me.You spoke with my aunt last night and it has taught me to hope as I'd scarcely allowed myself before.If your feelings are still what they were last April, tell me so at once. My affections and wishes have not changed.But one word from you will silence me for ever.If, however, your feelings have changed... ...I would have to tell you, you have bewitched me, body and soul, and I love... I love... I love you.I never wish to be parted from you from this day on.伊丽莎白:Well …then…Aside: At that moment,Elizabeth has realized that she had got a true love from the heart rather than being built on inequality and interests.Thank you~ (END)。

AT five o'clock the two ladies retired to dress, and at half past six Elizabeth was summoned to dinner. To the civil enquiries which then poured in, and amongst which she had the pleasure of distinguishing the much superior solicitude of Mr. Bingley's, she could not make a very favourable answer. Jane was by no means better. The sisters, on hearing this, repeated three or four times how much they were grieved, how shocking it was to have a bad cold, and how excessively they disliked being ill themselves, and then thought no more of the matter; and their indifference towards Jane, when not immediately before them, restored Elizabeth to the enjoyment of all her original dislike.Their brother, indeed, was the only one of the party whom she could regard with any complacency. His anxiety for Jane was evident, and his attentions to herself most pleasing, and they prevented her feeling herself so much an intruder as she believed she was considered by the others. She had very little notice from any but him. Miss Bingley was engrossed by Mr. Darcy, her sister scarcely less so; and as for Mr. Hurst, by whom Elizabeth sat, he was an indolent man, who lived only to eat, drink, and play at cards, who, when he found her prefer a plain dish to a ragout, had nothing to say to her.When dinner was over, she returned directly to Jane, and Miss Bingley began abusing her as soon as she was out of the room. Her manners were pronounced to be very bad indeed, a mixture of pride and impertinence; she had no conversation, no stile, no taste, no beauty. Mrs. Hurst thought the same, and added,"She has nothing, in short, to recommend her, but being an excellent walker. I shall never forget her appearance this morning. She really looked almost wild.""She did indeed, Louisa. I could hardly keep my countenance. Very nonsensical to come at all! Why must she be scampering about the country, because her sister had a cold? Her hair so untidy, so blowsy!" "Yes, and her petticoat; I hope you saw her petticoat, six inches deep in mud, I am absolutely certain; and the gown which had been letdown to hide it not doing its office.""Your picture may be very exact, Louisa," said Bingley; "but this was all lost upon me. I thought Miss Elizabeth Bennet looked remarkably well, when she came into the room this morning. Her dirty petticoat quite escaped my notice.""You observed it, Mr. Darcy, I am sure," said Miss Bingley, "and I am inclined to think that you would not wish to see your sister make such an exhibition.""Certainly not.""To walk three miles, or four miles, or five miles, or whatever it is, above her ancles in dirt, and alone, quite alone! what could she mean by it? It seems to me to shew an abominable sort of conceited independence, a most country town indifference to decorum.""It shews an affection for her sister that is very pleasing," said Bingley. "I am afraid, Mr. Darcy," observed Miss Bingley in a half whisper, "that this adventure has rather affected your admiration of her fine eyes." "Not at all," he replied; "they were brightened by the exercise." -- A short pause followed this speech, and Mrs. Hurst began again."I have an excessive regard for Jane Bennet, she is really a very sweet girl, and I wish with all my heart she were well settled. But with such a father and mother, and such low connections, I am afraid there is no chance of it.""I think I have heard you say, that their uncle is an attorney in Meryton.""Yes; and they have another, who lives somewhere near Cheapside." "That is capital," added her sister, and they both laughed heartily."If they had uncles enough to fill all Cheapside," cried Bingley, "it would not make them one jot less agreeable.""But it must very materially lessen their chance of marrying men of any consideration in the world," replied Darcy.To this speech Bingley made no answer; but his sisters gave it their hearty assent, and indulged their mirth for some time at the expense of their dear friend's vulgar relations.With a renewal of tenderness, however, they repaired to her room on leaving the dining-parlour, and sat with her till summoned to coffee. She was still very poorly, and Elizabeth would not quit her at all till late in the evening, when she had the comfort of seeing her asleep, and when it appeared to her rather right than pleasant that she should go down stairs herself. On entering the drawing-room she found the whole party at loo, and was immediately invited to join them; but suspecting them to be playing high she declined it, and making her sister the excuse, said she would amuse herself for the short time she could stay below with a book. Mr. Hurst looked at her with astonishment."Do you prefer reading to cards?" said he; "that is rather singular." "Miss Eliza Bennet," said Miss Bingley, "despises cards. She is a great reader and has no pleasure in anything else.""I deserve neither such praise nor such censure," cried Elizabeth; "I am not a great reader, and I have pleasure in many things.""In nursing your sister I am sure you have pleasure," said Bingley; "and I hope it will soon be increased by seeing her quite well." Elizabeth thanked him from her heart, and then walked towards a table where a few books were lying. He immediately offered to fetch her others; all that his library afforded."And I wish my collection were larger for your benefit and my own credit; but I am an idle fellow, and though I have not many, I have more than I ever look into."Elizabeth assured him that she could suit herself perfectly with those in the room."I am astonished," said Miss Bingley, "that my father should have left so small a collection of books. -- What a delightful library you have at Pemberley, Mr. Darcy!""It ought to be good," he replied, "it has been the work of many generations.""And then you have added so much to it yourself, you are always buying books.""I cannot comprehend the neglect of a family library in such days as these,""Neglect! I am sure you neglect nothing that can add to the beauties of that noble place. Charles, when you build your house, I wish it may be half as delightful as Pemberley.""I wish it may.""But I would really advise you to make your purchase in that neighbourhood, and take Pemberley for a kind of model. There is not a finer county in England than Derbyshire.""With all my heart; I will buy Pemberley itself if Darcy will sell it.""I am talking of possibilities, Charles.""Upon my word, Caroline, I should think it more possible to get Pemberley by purchase than by imitation."Elizabeth was so much caught by what passed, as to leave her very little attention for her book; and soon laying it wholly aside, she drew near the card-table, and stationed herself between Mr. Bingley and his eldest sister to observe the game."Is Miss Darcy much grown since the spring?" said Miss Bingley; "will she be as tall as I am?""I think she will. She is now about Miss Elizabeth Bennet's height, or rather taller.""How I long to see her again! I never met with anybody who delighted me so much. Such a countenance, such manners, and so extremely accomplished for her age! Her performance on the piano-forte is exquisite.""It is amazing to me," said Bingley, "how young ladies can have patience to be so very accomplished as they all are.""All young ladies accomplished! My dear Charles, what do you mean?" "Yes all of them, I think. They all paint tables, cover skreens, and net purses. I scarcely know any one who cannot do all this, and I am sure I never heard a young lady spoken of for the first time, without being informed that she was very accomplished.""Your list of the common extent of accomplishments," said Darcy, "hastoo much truth. The word is applied to many a woman who deserves it no otherwise than by netting a purse, or covering a skreen. But I am very far from agreeing with you in your estimation of ladies in general.I cannot boast of knowing more than half a dozen, in the whole range of my acquaintance, that are really accomplished.""Nor I, I am sure," said Miss Bingley."Then," observed Elizabeth, "you must comprehend a great deal in your idea of an accomplished women.""Yes; I do comprehend a great deal in it.""Oh! certainly," cried his faithful assistant, "no one can be really esteemed accomplished, who does not greatly surpass what is usually met with. A woman must have a thorough knowledge of music, singing, drawing, dancing, and the modern languages, to deserve the word; and besides all this, she must possess a certain something in her air and manner of walking, the tone of her voice, her address and expressions, or the word will be but half deserved.""All this she must possess," added Darcy, "and to all this she must yet add something more substantial, in the improvement of her mind by extensive reading.""I am no longer surprised at your knowing only six accomplished women. I rather wonder now at your knowing any.""Are you so severe upon your own sex, as to doubt the possibility of all this?""I never saw such a woman, I never saw such capacity, and taste, and application, and elegance, as you describe, united."Mrs. Hurst and Miss Bingley both cried out against the injustice of her implied doubt, and were both protesting that they knew many women who answered this description, when Mr. Hurst called them to order, with bitter complaints of their inattention to what was going forward. As all conversation was thereby at an end, Elizabeth soon afterwards left the room."Eliza Bennet," said Miss Bingley, when the door was closed on her, "is one of those young ladies who seek to recommend themselves to theother sex by undervaluing their own, and with many men, I dare say, it succeeds. But, in my opinion, it is a paltry device, a very mean art." "Undoubtedly," replied Darcy, to whom this remark was chiefly addressed, "there is meanness in all the arts which ladies sometimes condescend to employ for captivation. Whatever bears affinity to cunning is despicable."Miss Bingley was not so entirely satisfied with this reply as to continue the subject.Elizabeth joined them again only to say that her sister was worse, and that she could not leave her. Bingley urged Mr. Jones's being sent for immediately; while his sisters, convinced that no country advice could be of any service, recommended an express to town for one of the most eminent physicians. This she would not hear of, but she was not so unwilling to comply with their brother's proposal; and it was settled that Mr. Jones should be sent for early in the morning if Miss Bennet were not decidedly better. Bingley was quite uncomfortable; his sisters declared that they were miserable. They solaced their wretchedness, however, by duets after supper, while he could find no better relief to his feelings than by giving his housekeeper directions that every possible attention might be paid to the sick lady and her sister.五点钟的时候,主人家两姐妹出去更衣;六点半的时候伊丽莎白被请去吃晚饭。

傲慢与偏见.PRIDE.AND.PREJUDICE

Pride and Prejudice原著:Jane Austen改编:Wheatley BernsteinCHAPTER ONEA Young Man of FortuneIt is well known throughout the world that a singleman wants to marry a wife, especially if he is rich andsuccessful.Certainly, a mother of five daughters who are oldenough to marry also thinks a lot about marriage.When she hears that a wealthy man has moved into herneighborhood, she will surely think of him as a futurehusband for one of her daughters. This was the view ofMrs. Bennet of Longbourn House, which is nearMeryton in Hertfordshire. Mrs. Bennet had heard thenews in February 1810 that a single, wealthy man wasmoving near them. Excited by the opportunity, shedecided to tell her husband."My dear Mr. Bennet," she said to her husband,"do you know that someone is finally rentingNetherfield Park?"Mr. Bennet was silent and did not answer her."Don't you want to know who is there?" cried hiswife, impatiently. "Well, I'm sure you want to tell me.""Well," Mrs. Bennet said excitedly, "Netherfieldis being rented by Mr. Bingley. He is a young, wealthyman from the north. ""You don't say?" Mr. Bennet replied. "Is hemarried or single?""Oh, single, my dear!" cried Mrs. Bennetexcitedly. "What a good fortune for our daughters!""What do you mean by that? What does this haveto do with their fortune?""Oh, don't be so difficult, my dear Mr. Bennet!"replied his wife. "I'm just thinking that perhaps Mr.Bingley might marry one of our daughters.""Is this why he has rented the house?" herhusband asked, jokingly."What nonsense! Still, it's likely that if he meetsone of our girls, he'll fall in love. So, you must go andpay him a visit soon. It's the only respectable way foran introduction."Mr. Bennet stood up and looked at his wife. "I donot want to do that, and you cannot make me, Ipromise you. ""But what about the future of your daughters?"cried his wife, shocked. "I don't see why I must visit him." said Mr.Bennet."How difficult you are!" she cried. "I cannot takethe girls to visit him unless you have already met him.It's the only correct way. ""That's not true at all," said Mr. Bennet calmly."I will write this young man a letter. I will tell him hehas my permission to marry whichever of our daughtershe chooses. And I'll make sure that I say somethingvery good about my little Lizzy.""You will not do such a thing!" cried his wifeangrily. "Anyway, Elizabeth is no better than ourother daughters.""Our daughters," replied Mr. Bennet, "haven'tmuch in way of praise or recommendation. They don'tknow very much and are often silly, like other girls.But Lizzy is more clever and smarter than her sisters."" Mr. Bennet, how you make me worry!Sometimes I feel you even enjoy it! You don't careabout my poor nerves."Mr. Bennet walked over to the door of his library."You are wrong, my dear," he said. "I do havefeelings for your nerves. After all, they are like oldfriends. I have lived with them for twenty years. ""Oh!" said Mrs. Bennet. She was beginning tocry. "How you enjoy making me worry!""You will have many other chances to see richyoung men move into our neighborhood, my dear. So Ihope you can forget this.""You have no thought for your daughters. Five ofthem -- five! -- and Jane in her twenty-third year!Are they all to be old maids and never get married?""I'm sure you won't let this happen," he said, andthe library door closed behind him.The Bennet family met together in the drawingroom after dinner that evening. Four of Mr. Bennet'sdaughters were quite pretty. Jane was the mostbeautiful of them but Elizabeth, who was twenty, hadmore spirit. Also, Elizabeth's fine dark eyes seemedfull of light. Kitty was their seventeen-year-olddaughter. She was pretty ina thin way. Lydia wasalmost sixteen and she was tall with healthy, redcolored cheeks. Nineteen-year old Mary was the onlyplain member of the family. She was thin, round-shouldered, and near-sighted. Because she read toomany books, she had to wear glasses.Elizabeth was busy working on a hat when Mr.Bennet said to her: "I hope our new neighbor Mr.Bingley will like it. ""And how are we to know whether Mr. Bingleylikes it or not," asked her mother, "if we cannot visithim?""Don't worry, Mama, you forget that we shall seehim at the town meeting," Elizabeth said."Lady Lucas will introduce us to Mr. Bingley ifyou ask her. " said Jane."Lady Lucas," said Mrs. Bennet, without anyhope, "has her own daughter. She'll want him to meether.""That's not a very nice thing to say about her,Mama," said Elizabeth.Mrs. Bennet threw up her arms and turned angrilyto Elizabeth. "Do not speak back to me, Elizabeth,"she cried. "My nerves will not stand it. A friendlyintroduction at a public meeting will not be as good asyour papa introducing himself. He has no thought foryour future at all."She looked angrily across the room at herhusband."How can we convince you to visit Mr. Bingley,Papa?" asked Elizabeth, nicely. She hoped to changeher father's mind."Please do," said Jane."Oh yes, sir, I beg you!" requested Lydia."Leave me out of this request, Papa," said Mary,coldly. "I don't wish to go chasing after Mr. Bingley."Mr. Bennet looked from one daughter to theother. "I've already told you -- I'm not going to call onMr. Bingley," he said."You see!" cried Mrs. Bennet. "He doesn't care!Oh, my poor head!" But Mrs. Bennet's complaininghad no effect on her husband. Since she was still upset,she began to yell at one of her daughters. "By heavens,stop coughing, Kitty! You will tear my poor nervesapart."Do you think I cough because I like to, Mama?"said Kitty."Please Kitty, your mother's being difficult,"remarked Mr. Bennet. "Let us talk a little more aboutMr. Bingley -- ""No, no," cried his wife. "No more about Mr.Bingley !""I'm quite sorry to hear that, my dear," said herhusband. He was enjoying himself very much. "Whydidn't you tell me this before?" Mr. Bennet said,jokingly. "If I had known, I wouldn't have gone tovisit him yesterday morning.""What!" cried Mrs. Bennet "You went to visithim?""Oh. Papa!" exclaimed Jane, Elizabeth, Kittyand Lydia, all at the same time."But my dear -- you said so strongly that youwould not go!" said his wife."That's because I had already done so, you see.""Oh, how good of you, my dear! I knew youloved your daughters too much to miss the opportunityto meet with such a man of good fortune. What a goodjoke toplay on us! Oh, my dear Mr. Bennet, howvery happy l am!""Now, Kitty, you may cough as much as you needto," said Mr. Bennet as he left the room. He was verytired after dealing with his wife."What a fine, thoughtful father you have, girls,"said Mrs. Bennet after the door was shut.For the rest of the evening, the girls and theirmother wondered how soon it would be before Mr.Bingley returned their father's visit.CHAPTER TWOA Young Man of Proud MannersMr. Bingley returned Mr. Bennet's visit after afew days. They sat together about ten minutes in thelibrary. Mr. Bingley had hoped to see the daughters.He had heard that they were very beautiful. However,he was only able to see the father, Mr. Bennet would not tell his daughters about theyoung man. But they had information from Elizabeth'sfriend, Charlotte Lucas. Charlotte said thatMr.Bingley was very handsome, and he had a very nicepersonality. Most importantly, he was planning to goto the next dance in Meryton. The girls all lookedforward to the dance, for dancing was often a sure steptowards falling in love.On the night of the dance, Mr. Bingley came withhis single sister, Caroline, his married sister, Mrs.Hurst, and another young man. Charles Bingley wasindeed verygood-looking, and had easy, friendlymanners. Everyone was interested in his friend, Mr.Darcy. He was a fine, tall man. His face was handsomeand he seemed very noble. There was a rumor that heowned a large piece of land at Pemberley, inDerbyshire. Later, everyone discovered that he wasproud, rude, and thought that other people were not asgood as him.Mr. Bingley, on the other hand, was lively andnot shy. He danced every dance, and seemeddisappointed when it was time for the dance to finish.What a difference with his friend! Mr. Darcy onlydanced once with Mr. Bingley's sister; he didn't evenask to be introduced to any other lady.At the dance itwas decided that he was the proudest, mostdisagreeable man in the world.During the dance, Elizabeth had been to sit downfor two dances. Mr. Darcy had been standing near herand she was able to listen to a conversation between himand Mr. Bingley."Come on, Darcy," he said. "Don't stand here byyourself. Wouldn't it be better if you were to dancesome more?""Your sisters are dancing with other partners, andyou are dancing with the only beautiful girl in theroom," said Mr. Darcy, looking across at Jane."Oh, she is most beautiful! But one of her sistersis sitting behind you, and she is also very pretty. Letme ask Jane to introduce you. "Darcy turned around and looked at Elizabeth untilElizabeth turned to look at him. Catching her eye, hestopped and coldly said, "She is not pretty enough forme to dance with her. "Mr. Darcy walked off, leaving Elizabeth feelinghurt. She certainly had no friendly feelings for him.Mrs. Bennet, who had also heard Mr. Darcy'sremark, was very angry.Still, the whole evening passed very pleasantlyenough for the rest of the family. Mrs. Bennet washappy because her eldest daughter Jane was muchadmired by the Netherfield party. Mary had heardherself mentioned as the most educated girl in theneighborhood; and Kitty and Lydia were alwaysdancing with partners through the evening. Because ofthis, they returned home to Longbourn in good andhappy spirits."Oh, my dear Mr. Bennet," cried his wife as sheentered the room, "What a delightful evening! Janewas so admired. Mr. Bingley said she was quitebeautiful. She was the only lady in the room that hedanced with twice. 'Mrs. Bennet then told him about how rude, proudand hurtful Mr. Darcy had been. "I wish you had beenthere to give him a piece of your mind!"It was easy, during the next few weeks, forElizabeth to know that Mr. Charles Bingley wasbecoming very fond of Jane. Jane, for her part,returned his warm feelings. Because she was busywatching Mr. Bingley pay attention to her sister,Elizabeth was too busy to guess that she was receivingthe attention of Mr. Darcy. Though he had looked ather without any feeling at the dance, he began to noticethe beautiful expression of her dark eyes. They madeher face seem uncommonly intelligent. He was alsoforced to admit that her figure was both lightandattractive. Her easy and playful manner was alsoattractive. But Elizabeth remained unaware.One night Sir William Lucas had a large party athis house. Mr. Darcy was standing near Elizabethwhen Sir William came near."What a pleasant thing dancing is for youngpeople," said Sir William. "One must know how todance in order to be part of high-standing society.""True," replied Mr. Darcy, "but dancing is alsofashionable in other kinds of societies in the world.Even uneducated people can dance."Sir William only smiled at Mr. Darcy's coldremark, At that moment Elizabeth turned around, andhe called to her."My dear Miss Elizabeth, why is it you are notdancing? Mr. Darcy, please allow me to introduce thisyoung lady to you as a very pretty and delightfuldancing partner. " Taking her hand, he would havegiven it to Mr. Darcy. But Elizabeth suddenly steppedback."Indeed, sir, you must not believe that I amstanding here to look for a partner. In fact I do notwant to dance."Then Mr. Darcy tried very hard to ask her todance. But Elizabeth would not agree and turned away.Mr. Darcy was still looking at her when she turnedaway.Suddenly, he found Bingley's sister Miss CarolineBingley beside him. "I'm sure you are thinking howboring it would be if you had to spend all your eveningswith these country people. ""Actually, you are quite wrong. I was justthinking about how pleasurable it is to see such fineeyes in the face of a pretty woman. ""Oh!" said Miss Bingley, surprised. "And whichlady has given you such an idea?""Miss Elizabeth Bennet.""How long has she been such a favorite of yours?This is quite unexpected! When can I wish youhappiness together?""Sometimes your imagination is too quick,"replied Darcy coldly. "It jumps from high to low, fromlove to marriage in a single moment. ""Well! You will have a horrible mother-in-law,indeed. She will be perfect for you, indeed." said MissBingley, hatefully.He paid no attention to her, but continued to lookat Elizabeth across the room.CHAPTER THREEA Young Man Searching for a WifeThe village of Longbourn was located about a milefrom Meryton, where the Bennet daughters had anaunt. Being such a short distance, they often walked tocall upon Mrs. Philips, their aunt. Recently, the twoyoungest members of the Bennet family were going toMeryton very often. The arrival in Meryton of militarysoldiers attracted Kitty and Lydia. Their uncle, Mr.Phillips, knew all the officers. Most ofthem were quiteoften visiting at his house. Soon Kitty and Lydia got toknow the officers, too. In their eyes, Mr. Bingley'slarge fortune and wealth meant nothing since he did notwear the red coat of a military man.One morning, the day after another dance inMeryton, the two youngest sisters were telling theirmother and sisters the wonderful experiences of thenight before."We danced every dance," said Lydia joyfully."We spoke to every officer in the room," addedKitty.Mr. Bennet appeared at the library door, withoutbeing seen. He was holding a letter while he enteredinto the room. He said, coolly, "You two must be twoof the silliest girls in the country. ""Oh Mr. Bennet," replied Mrs. Bennet, "Iremember very well when I liked men in red coatsmyself -- ""Please, I beg you to leave out the details," saidMr. Bennet. "I do not wish to hear your clever speechon the charms of the military. I want to tell you aboutthis letter. We are soon to receive a visitor.""It is Mr. Bingley?" asked Mrs. Bennet, greatlysatisfied. "Why, Jane -- you never said anything aboutthis. ""Heavens!" cried Mr. Bennet. "Do you thinkthere is only one man in this world? It is not Mr.Bingley. ""Is he an officer, papa?" asked Lydia eagerly."Is he young?" queried Kitty."Do we know him, papa?" asked Elizabeth."He is a gentleman whom I have never seen beforein my whole life. He wants to stay here with us for twoweeks. ""For two weeks?" asked Mrs. Bennet. "A totalstranger! How strange! But is he rich, my dear?""Probably not, because he works for the church. ""Oh!" said Lydia, sadly disappointed. "He worksfor the church!""Ah, but he will be given property after hisparents die," said Mr. Bennet. "He is a young man ofexpected wealth."Mrs. Bennet's face brightened. " And is hesingle?""Yes, my dear, he is," Mr. Bennet replied. "ButI don't think he'll be able to stay single for long after heenters this house with all of you!""A young churchman who will soon own a lot ofproperty!" thought Mrs. Bennet. "H'mm! Well, Ishall be very glad to see him. ""I'm glad," said her husband jokingly, "you are soready to welcome Mr. Collins to our home -- ""What!" cried his wife. She was in shock."Oh, so it's Mr. Collins, your cousin, papa?Won't he receive this property after your death?" askedElizabeth."Yes, you're right. It is that Mr. Collins. ""You should be very kind to him, "continued Mr.Bennet smoothly, "When I'm dead he will decide if youmust leave this house.""Please do not talk of that man," said Mrs.Bennet "It is not right or correct that your property betaken away from your own children and given toanother relative.""Well, there is nothing we can do about it,Mama," said Jane. She and Elizabeth had often tried toexplain to their mother that females were not able toown property. It was the law."Perhaps, if you listen to his letter you may feel alittle softer towards him. He says that he feels quitebadly about his position. He does not wish to hurt thesecurity of your daughters. He hopes to make up for itin any possible way. ""But how can he make up for it?" asked Jane."Yes, how, indeed?" said Mrs. Bennet. "Andyou've invited him for two weeks?""No, he invited himself, my dear. ""La! He sounds like an awfully boring person,"said Lydia.Mr. Bennet regarded her coldly. "I guess you aredisappointed. Maybe you would be happier if he wore amilitary coat! We are expecting this peaceful gentlemanat fore" o'clock. Until then, please do not discuss whatromantic or financial opportunity he has. "Mrs. Bennet was the person in the house whenMr. Collins arrived, exactly at four o'clock. He was atall, heavy young man about twenty-five years old. Hismanners were very formal, and he seemed very serious."You are on time, Mr. Collins," she said coldly."Will you have a seat, sir?""Thank you, ma'am," and Mr. Collins sat."I hope," said Mrs. Bennet, "that your journeywas comfortable. ""To tell you the truth, I hardly noticed thejourney because my mind was too busy thinking aboutmy arrival here. To speak directly, ma'am, I greatlyhope to meet your five daughters. I have heard much oftheir beauty. ""They are known to be the most handsome girls inthe country. It is not surprising; after all. I have hadmy share of beauty --""You still do, if I may say so," replied Mr.Collins, as he was a gentleman. "I have no doubt thatsoon all your daughters will ha looking for a husband tomarry.""I strongly hope they find a husband -- or no onewill be here to care for them. Matters such as propertyand wealth must be considered. "Mr. Collins moved uneasily on his chair. "You arespeaking about the fact that I will receive thisproperty?""I do, indeed," said Mrs. Bennet. She gave aheavy sigh. "It's not that I find fault with you.""I care very much, ma'am, about the problemsmy position gives to my dear cousins. I could say muchabout this, but I do not wish to be too rude -- ""Please speak honestly with me, sir," said Mrs.Bennet hastily."You are very kind, ma'am. I will be honest withyou. I must first tell you that I am very fortunatebecause a very important person, Lady Catherine deBourght, has taken me under her care. Her goodnesshas supported me throughout my Life. Lady Catherinehas advised me to marry."Mrs. Bennet smiled, and nodded her head wisely."How very, very wise!" she said."I am happy, ma'am, to see that you are sounderstanding. Now I can tell you that I have comehere to find a wife. ""I am sure, sir, that marriage would add to yourhappiness. ""In truth, ma'am," said Mr. Collins, veryserious, "I mean to choose one of your daughters; it ismy plan. Then, one of your daughters will be able tokeep her family property and father's house. -Mrs. Bennet stood up and stretched out both herhands to welcome him."My dear Mr. Collins." she said. "I am mosthappy to welcome you to Longbourn!"CHAPTER FOURA Young Man WrongedMr. Collins' did not change his plan after he sawthe five Bennet daughters. Jane's lovely face proved tohim that his idea had been a good idea. From the firstevening of his stay, she became his settled choice. Thenext morning before breakfast, however, Mrs. Bennettold him to be cautious about making Jane as his wife.She told Mr. Collins that Jane already had anotherwealthy man who was interested in marrying her.Mr. Collins then decided to change from Jane toElizabeth -- and this was soon done. Mrs. Bennet washopeful that soon she would have two marrieddaughters.After breakfast, all the Bennet girls decided towalk into Meryton. Mr. Collins was asked to jointhem, at the request of Mr. Bennet. He wanted to getrid of Mr. Collins so that he could have his library tohimself. Earlier, Mr. Collins had followed him into thelibrary and talked without stopping about his house andgarden at Hunsford. Though prepared to put up withfoolishness and pride in every other room, Mr. Bennetdid not stand for such behavior in his library.Mr. Collins' speech was very proud all the way toMeryton. When they reached Meryton, the attentionof the sisters was drawn away from him.There was a young man, whom they had neverseen, walking with an officer on the other side of theroad. The officer was Mr. Denny. They knew himwell. Kitty and Lydia, pretending to want somethingfrom a nearby shop, crossed the street. They had justreached the other side of the road when the twogentlemen reached the same spot. Mr. Denny askedpermission to introduce his friend, Mr. Wickham. Mr.Wickham had just decided to join the military as anarmy soldier. The sisters expressed their view that Mr.Wickham would be most charming if he were to dress inuniform.The party was talking together very nicely whenthey heard the sound of horses. Darcy and Bingley wereriding down the street towards them. Bingley waslooking at Jane, but Mr. Darcy decided not to look atElizabeth. They were suddenly surprised by the sight ofMr. Wickham. Elizabeth noticed that both Mr.Darcy's and Mr. Bingley's faces changed color: onelooked white, the other red.After a few moments,Mr. Wickham touched his hat -- Mr. Darcy had nochoice but to return his greeting.Then Mr. Bingley rode on with his friend.Mr. Denny and Mr. Wickham walked with theyoung ladies to the door of Mr. Philips' house. Thenthey said their goodbyes. Mrs. Philips, always glad tosee her nieces, received Mr. Collins most politely.Some of the officers were going to dine the next daywith the Philipses. Their aunt promised to invite Mr.Wickham as well.As they were walking home to Longbourn,Elizabeth told Jane what she had seen. She wonderedwhy Mr. Wickham had caused such surprise, but Janehad no explanation for this behavior.The coach took Mr. Collins and his five cousins toMeryton. When they arrived, the girls were delightedto hear that Mr. Wickham had also accepted theiruncle's invitation.When Mr. Wickham entered the house, Elizabethwas struck by his handsomeness. He sat beside her andafter a while he asked, in an uncomfortable way, howlong Mr. Darcy had been in town."About a month," said Elizabeth. "I understandhe has a very large property in Derbyshire.""Yes," replied Wickham. "I have known hisfamily since my childhood."Elizabeth looked surprised."I guess you are surprised, Miss Bennet. We didgreet each other very coldly yesterday. To tell you thetruth, I do not think of him as my friend.""He can be a very disagreeable man," saidElizabeth."His father was a very good man, and the truestfriend I ever had. You see, I should have been workingfor the church. If this had happened, I would now havea very good and valuable way of living. However, Mr.Darcy, made my good fortune impossible to happen.""Indeed !""Yes -- his father wanted me to have his propertyand wealth. He was my godfather, and wanted toprovide well for me. But after his death, his propertywas given elsewhere. ""Good heavens!" cried Elizabeth. "Why wasn'this will followed?""A certain part of the will was very unclear. Or,at least, Mr. Darcy chose to make it unclear. Theproperty was given to someone else. We are verydifferent sort of men, me and Mr. Darcy, and he hatesme!""He deserves to be publicly punished!""He will be; but not by me. Because I rememberthe kindness of his father, I will never do something tohurt his family!""But why did he behave so cruelly?" she asked."Jealousy," replied Mr. Wickham. "My fatherwas a lawyer. He did much to be useful to the late Mr.Darcy. He gave all his time and effort for taking care ofthe Pemberley property. He was also Mr. Darcy'sclosest friend. Before my father died, Mr. Darcypromised him he would provide for me. But his son'sjealousy stopped him from doing so. ""Even though I have never liked him, I neverthought Mr. Darcy would be as bad as this. How canMr. Bingley be friends with him? He must not beaware of what Mr. Darcy has done. ""Probably he is not. Mr. Darcy can be a very nicefriend if he thinks it is good for him. I know he takescare of his sister very carefully. ""What kind of a girl is Miss Darcy?""She's very, very proud, just like her brother.She is sixteen years old. Since her father's death, shehas lived in London. A lady takes care of hereducation."Mr. Wickham's attention was then caught by Mr.Collins, who was talking about Lady Catherine deBourgh, whose care he was under. He asked Elizabethwhether Mr. Collins was a close friend of the deBourgh family."I do not know how Mr. Collins was introduced toher," she replied, "but he has not known her forlong.""Lady Catherine de Bourgh and Lady Anne Darcywere sisters. Lady Catherine is aunt to the present Mr.Darcy. "They continued talking together until supper. Onher way home, Elizabeth could only think of Mr.Wickham and what he had told her.CHAPTER FIVEA Young Lady AshamedElizabeth told Jane the next day about theconversation she had with Mr. Wickham. Jane wasvery surprised and concerned."Good heavens!" she shouted. "Why would hebehave so cruelly?"Elizabeth shrugged. "I imagine he was jealous.""How terrible! I did not think that Mr. Darcywas this bad.""Why is Bingley such good friends with him?""He must not know what kind of man Mr. Darcyis," Jane replied.Then Elizabeth added, thoughtfully, "Mr. Darcycan be very pleasant when he chooses. "Jane smiled. "He really wants to be pleasant toyou, Lizzy. I have seen the way he looks at you -- ""Oh, no, Jane!" said Elizabeth quickly. "You aremistaken -- quite mistaken!"At this point, Mr. Bingley arrived with his twosisters. They had come to invite the sisters to a danceat Netherfield, set for the following Tuesday.The idea of going to a dance excited everyone.Mrs. Bennet considered the invitation to be because ofher eldest daughter's popularity; Jane could see herselfspending a happy evening with her friends.Meanwhile, Elizabeth was looking forward to dancing alot with Mr. Wickham. Kitty and Lydia thought Mr.Bingley would invite many officers and soldiers of thearmy. Even Mary seemed willing to attend.Elizabeth was so happy that she asked Mr. Collinsif he intended to accept Mr. Bingley's invitation, and ifhe did, if he would think it proper to join in theevening's。

Pride and Prejudice--A new woman about love and marriage1, IntroductionThe novel of Pride and Prejudice is writted by an English writer called Jane.Asuten. She was born and lived on a farmer. She didn’t get married in her life. Beacause of his father’s samll libary, she could read many books and learnt many even she couldn’t go to a formal school. Because of living in a small counry, she had no chance to touch so many different kinds of people. In her novel, there were no big conflicts and we can see humor between lines. She began to write this novel in 1976, which originally titled First Impression. When she finished this novel, her father submitted it to a London publisher. However, the manuscript was rejected. It didn’t make Jane disappointed. She continued working on her novel and change its name---Pride and Predujice. The book was published in 1813 finally. To date, the book has sold about 20 million copies worldwide.Jane lived in between the end of 18 century and the beginning of 19 century. During this period, many people were influenced by Industrial Revolution. People seeked money and the ranks were divided obviously. In addition, the society was so traditional. However, Jane’s novels differed from others, also being humorous.2, SummeryThe novel begins that Mr.Bingly rent the Netherfield Park which was owned by Mr.Bennet. After they visited each other, Mr.Bennet invited Mr.Bingly to take part in a dance ball. Mr.Bingly attended the dance ball and came with his two sisters and his good friend Mr.Darcy. Mr.Bingly was a wealthy, good looking and gentlemanlike man, which appealed to many women’s eyes and was soon well received. At the dance ball, Mr.Darcy fell in love with Jane when he met her first time. He invited Jane to dance twice at that evening. On the contrary, Mr.Darcy didn’t dance with others and made a less favorable first impression by appearing proud and condescending. When Mr.Bingly pressed him to join in, Mr.Darcy said that ―I certaintly shall not. You know how I detest it, unless I am particularly acquainted with my partner. At such an assemby as this, it would be insupportable.Your sister are engaged, and there is not another woman in the room, whom it would not be a punishment to me to stand up with‖.(Austen, 2010: Page16) Elizabeth heard what they talked and felt a littler bit predujice toward him.After this dance ball, Jane and Mr.Bingly had formed an attachment to each other. Miss.Bingly, Mr.Bingly’s sister wrote a letter to invite Jane to have dinner together. Hoever, when Jane visit Miss.Bingly, she got a clod and was forced to stay at Netherfield for severy day. Elizabeth arrived to nurse Jane and was thrown into frequent aompany with Mr.Darcy, who began to perceive his attachment to her.Mr.Collins was Mr.Bennet’s cousin, who was a conceited, popous, narrowminded and silly man. He came to visit Mr.Bennet with an aim which to choose a wife. Unfortunately, Elizabeth had been singled out. During this time, Elizabeth was acquainted with Mr.Wickham, a militia officer who was handsome. He claimed to have been very seriously mistreated by Mr.Darcy. This tale added fuel to her prejudice of Mr.Darcy and her attraction to Mr.Wickham. Mr.Collins was so confident of himself that proposed marriage to Elizabeth, she rejecting without consideration. At the same time, Mr Collins recovered and promptly became engaged to Elizabeth's close friend Charlotte, a homely woman with few prospects; Jane recieved a letter told that Mr.Bingly had left Hertfordshire without saying goodbye.In March, Elizabeth visited Charlotte and Mr.Collions. When Elizabeth and Charlotte were invited to Rosings Park, home of Lady Catherine de Brourgh, Darcy’aunt. On accasion, Elizabeth met Mr.Darcy again. At this time, Mr.Darcy found himself loved Elizabeth so much and couldn’t stand any more. However, Elizabeth just knew that Mr.Darcy separated Mr.Bingly from Jane, rebuking him angrily. She charged him with destroying her sister’s happiness. Mr.Darcy entered into Elizabeth’s room and expressed his feelings. He said ―In vain have I struggled. It will not do. My feelings will not be repressed. You must allow me to tell you haow ardently I admire and love you.‖(Asuten, 2010: Page238) After hearing these words, Elizabeth was shocked. She didn’t moved, on the contrary, rejecting rudely. Mr.Darcy felt depressed and left. Before his leaving, he left a letter to Elizabeth. In this latter, he explained that why he persuarded his friend Mr.Bingly to leave your sister and the misunderstanding between Mr.Wickham and him. After reading this letter, Elizabeth realized that she was wrong and stupid.Some months later, Elizabeth and her Aunt and Uncle Gardiner visit Pemberley, Darcy's estate. They met again. At this time, Elizabeth began to change her attitude toward Mr.Darcy and a litter bit liked him. Their reacquaintance was quiet short. Because of the news that Lydia, Elizabeth's sister, had run away to elope with Mr Wickham, Elizabeth and the Gardiners returned to Longbourn.Lydia and Wickham were soon found, then got married by the clergy. Elizabeth was shocked but didn’t dwell further on the topic due to Mr Bingley's return and subsequent proposal to Jane, who immediately accepted.Lady Catherine de Bourgh later burst in on Longbourn, she warned Elizabeth against marrying Mr Darcy. Elizabeth refused her demands. After experiencing so many things , when Mr.Darcy traveled to Longbourn and proposed again, Elizabeth accepted. At last, they were engaged.3, Character AnalysisElizabeth BennetElizabeth is the herome of the novel. In general, She is an intelligent,lively, attractive and witty woman. First of all, she is pure and frank. When Mr.Wickham told her bad somethings about Mr.Darcy, she believes easily. ―How strange!‖ cried Elizabeth. ―How abominable!—I wonder that the very pride of this Mr.Darcy has not have made him so just to you! – If from no better motive, that he should not have been so proud to be dishonest, --for dishonesty I must call it.‖(Asuten, 2010:Page112) In these words, we can draw a conclusion that Elizabeth believes Mr.Wickham whether it’s a truth or not. In addition, Elizabeth is very brave and can express his feelings directly. She hates Mr.Darcy, saying directly. When Mr.Darcy proposes marriage to her, she rejects rudely. ―In such cases as this, it is, I believe, the estabished mode to express a sense of obligation for the sentiments avowed, however unequally they be returned. It is natural that obligation should be felt, and if I chould feel gratitude, I would now thank you. But I cannot—I have never desired your good opinion, and yu have certainly bestowed it most unconsciously done, however, and I hope will be of short duration. The feelings which, you tell me, have long prevented the acknowledgement of your regard, can have little difficulty in overcoming it after this explaination.‖(Asuten, 2010: Page238) She dislikes Mr.Darcy, so she says her thoughts and feelings about him without considering his feelings. Thirdly, she doesn’t give up to anyone and chases her marriage and happiness by herself. Her mother wants to her marry with Mr.Collins. She disagrees and also rejects. When Lady Catherine tells her to promise never to enter into such an engagement with Mr.Darcy, she says ―I will make no promise of the kind. And I certainly never shall give it. I am not to be intimidated into anything so wholly unreasonable.‖ (Asuten, 2010: Page 432) She loves Mr.Darcy, so she won’t give up. Mr.DarcyMr.Darcy is the hero of the novel. In this novel, Mr.Darcy is a round character. He is the son of a wealthy, well-established family and the master of the great estate of Pemberley. Although he is handsome, he is so proud. ―I certaintly shall not. You know how I detest it, unless I am particularly acquainted with my partner. At such an assemby as this, it would be insupportable.Your sisters are engaged, and there is not another woman in the room, whom it would not be a punishment to me to stand up with‖.(Austen, 2010: Page16) He only dance with his acquaintences and doesn’t like others. On the contrary, he is insistent to love. Although he knows Elizabeth doesn’t like him, he also tells his own feelings because of loving her. At first, he confesses to Elizabeth how he loves her. Unfortunately, Elizabeth rejects. But it doesn’t let him down, he loves her all the time. At second time, he also encourages himself to propse marriage to Elizabeth again. ―You must know. Surely you must know it was all for you. You are too generous to trifle with me. You spoke with my aunt last night and it has taught me to hope as I'dscarcely allowed myself before. If your feelings are still what they were last April, tell me so at once. My affections and wishes have not changed. But one word from you will silence me for ever. lf, however, your feelings have changed.I would have to tell you, you have bewitched me, body and soul, and I love you.I never wish to be parted from you from this day on.‖(Austen, 2010: 351) Finally, he is a generous man. Although Mr.Wickham says something bad of him, he pay for his gambling debt. He changes his pride at last for Elizabeth.Mrs.BennetMrs. Bennet is Elizabeth’s mother, a miraculously tiresome character. Noisy and foolish, she is a woman consumed by the desire to see her daughters married and seems to care for nothing else in the world.“Mrs.Bnnet was a woman of mean understanding, little information, and uncertain temper. When she was discontented she fancied herself nervous. The business of her wife was to get her daughters married; its solance was visiting and news‖.(Asuten, 2010: Page6) At the beginning of the novel, author has told us her characters. In the end, Mrs. Bennet proves such an unattractive figure, lacking redeeming characteristics of any kind.Mr.CollinsWilliam Collins is Mr.Bennet's clergyman cousin and heirs to his estate. ―He is a conceit ed, pompous, narrowminded, silly man.‖ (Asuten, 2010: Page98) In some way, he is so stupid. He thinks he has houses and lots of money so that he comes to find a wife for himself. He is so confidenct with himself that when he propses marriage to Elizabeth, he says ―My reasons for marrying are, first, that I think it a right for every clergyman in easy circumstance(like myself) to set the example of matrimony in his parish. Secondly, that I am conviced it will add very greatli in my happiness; and thirdly—which perhaps I ought to have mentioned earlier, that it is the particular advice and recommendation of the very noble lady whom I have the honour of calling patroness‖.(Asuten, 2010: Page134)4, CritiqueThe author describes different attitudes toward marriage of Mr.Bennet’s five daughters, highlighting Elizabeth’s attitude on love and marriage. In the 18th century, some women would marry for material wealth and social position, some marry just for beauty and passion, and little would marry for true love with a consideration of the parnber’s met it as well as his economical and social status. In this novel, the writer models a new image of women . Elizabeth answered us, ―Of all it be only a slight, thin sort of inclination, I am convinced that one good sonnet will starve in entirely away‖.(Austen, 2010:180) In another words, healthy love is strong in a new woman’seye. She couldn’t accept such a marriage like her friend Charlotte, whose reason for marring Mr.Collins was, ―I am not romantic, you know, I never was.I ask only a comfortable home and considering Mr.Collins’ character, connections, and stituation in life, I am conviced that my chance of happiness with him is as fair as most people can boast on entering the marriage state.‖(Austen, 2010: 234) Elizabeth had felt that Charlotte’s opinion about marriage was not exactly like her. Charlotte would have sacrified every better feeling to wordly advantage.As a new woman at that time, about marriage, Elizabeth has her own view. There are several reasons to influent her. At first, her family. His father married with her mother for her youth and beauty. However, they had weak understanding and were not suitable for each other. So their affection went to an end at the early in their marriage. In Elizabeth’s eye, their parents’ marriage is unfortunate and unhappy, which makes her to chase love and marriage by her own. When her mother gets her married with Mr.Collins, she rejected immdiately, not considering anyone’s feelings. She doesn’t like him, although he has money, adding her mother’s pression, she doesn’t agree finally.After experiencing so many things, she knows real Mr.Darcy and loves each other. So she doesn’t give up her happiness easily and wants to catch her true love. Before she married Dardy, Lady Catherine had come to the Bennets to prevent her from engaging to her nephew. She said Mr.Darcy had engaged to her daughter, and abused Elizabeth as a young without family, connections, or fortune, could never have the opportunity to being most advantageously married. However, she doesn’t give up, angerily says ―That will make your ladyship’s situation at present more pitiable; but it will have no effect on me.‖ (Austen, 2010:430) ―I will make no promise of the kind.‖―And I certaintly never shall give it. I am not to be intimidated into anything so wholly unreasonable.‖ (Austen, 2010:432) With the clear view of love and marriage, she beats Lady Catherine and overcomes her own prejudice. And then the old lady went to her nephew, intending to give him a picture of a disrespectful, ill-mannered Elizabeth, but unfornately this enlightens Darcy about the young lady’s heart and encourages him make a second proposal, which is finally accepted by her. That’s a nice attacking back and she owns her love and marriage.5, ConclusionNew women are s term used in the earlier years of the 20th century for a woman with progressive ideas. However, advocates of the New Woman ideal were found among the women novelist—Jane Austen as early as the 18th century. In this novel, Elizabeth has got her happiness and love and doesn’t give up to anyone. At that time, she was a symbol of a new woman. There seven marriages in this novel, some of them may be happy, others may mot. Maybe money is a basement of the marriage, but not the only thing. We should catch love and marriage by ourselves, not just for money. When we face our love, we should have enough encouragement to overcome everything.References蔡岚岚.简奥斯汀《傲慢与偏见》中的女性形象.

Pride and prejudice 傲慢与偏见赏析英文

Pride and prejudice 傲慢与偏见赏析英文

Pride and prejudice 傲慢与偏见赏析英文"Pride and Prejudice" is the representative work of the famous British female writer Jane Austen. The work describes the emotional entanglement between the arrogant single young man Darcy and the prejudiced second lady Elizabeth, the wealthy single aristocrat Bingley and the virtuous lady Jane.Actually, I had already contacted this book very early, but at that time I was very impatient with the complexity of the plot. After reading a few chapters, I lost interest, so I kept it aside and picked it up again today. However, when I read the first few chapters, I still found it very boring. Later I realized that this was an ambush for the future. In an instant, more than thirty chapters have passed, and the character's character is clearly portrayed by the author. There seems to be only two kinds of people in this book: smart and stupid. There is no absolute difference between good and bad, except perhaps Wickham, a liar. He used his ingenious flattery ability and a "pleasing" appearance to fascinate Elizabeth, and kept washing his grievances and slandering Darcy. It is ridiculous that his words are full of flaws, and even though the brilliantly intelligent Elizabeth can argue with Miss Bingley and contradict Mrs. Catherine, Wickham is still led by the nose. To be honest, I don't think that Elizabeth was deceived to show that she is a "foolish man." People are always preconceived. Mr. Darcy's arrogant and rude appearance has already entered Elizabeth's mind. How can he feel good about him? How can you easily turn a deaf ear to the comments of others? It is normal to be biased against Darcy. By others, I mean the handsome Wickham. It is undeniable that Wickham has a handsome face and pretends to be very "gentleman" on the surface. Although there are sayings that "people should not look at their faces" and "knowing others, knowing their faces and not knowing their hearts", even though I live in the 21st century and watch this story as a bystander, I still have a good impression of Wickham. How can I blame Elizabeth This girl who lived in a bygone era?After closing the book and taking a closer look, I will slowly discover that the whole novel is attractive because of its relaxed and humorous style. Elizabeth's ridicule is exposing the true colors of the nobles who regarded themselves as gentlemen and ladies. It is unfortunate and ironic that Elizabeth's father, Mr. Bennet, actually laughed at his wife and daughter as a family happiness.。

《傲慢与偏见》17 pride and prejudice 英语

《傲慢与偏见》17 pride and prejudice 英语"Pride and Prejudice" is a famous novel written by Jane Austen. It was first published in 1813 and is set in rural England during the early 19th century. The story revolves around the Bennet family, particularly the second eldest daughter, Elizabeth Bennet.The novel explores themes of societal pressure, marriage, and the consequences of pride and prejudice. The main plot follows the evolving relationship between Elizabeth and Mr. Darcy, a wealthy and proud aristocrat. Initially, Elizabeth despises Mr. Darcy due to his aloof and arrogant behavior. However, as the story progresses, she begins to understand his true character and falls in love with him.The Bennet family consists of Mr. Bennet, a witty and intelligent gentleman; Mrs. Bennet, a frivolous and overly anxious woman; and their five daughters: Jane, Elizabeth, Mary, Kitty, and Lydia. Mrs. Bennet's main concern is to marry off her daughters to wealthy suitors, as their family estate is entailed to a male heir.Throughout the novel, the characters' pride and prejudice influence their actions and decisions. Elizabeth's own prejudice towards Mr. Darcy blinds her to his genuine feelings for her, while Mr. Darcy's pride initially hinders him from expressing his love for Elizabeth."Pride and Prejudice" is widely regarded as one of the greatest romantic novels in English literature. It is praised for its wit, social commentary, and complex characters. The novel explores the restrictions placed upon women in the 19th century and highlights the importance of personal growth and self-reflection.Several film and television adaptations have been made of this beloved novel, solidifying its place as a timeless classic in literature.。

Pride and Prejudic2

Pride and Prejudice外贸091 王璐During last summer holiday, I read the book called Pride and Prejudice written by the famous English writer, Jane Austen. After reading the novel, to some degree, I think that it is one of the most attractive novels I have ever read. It reflects different ideas about love and marriage through different characters.The story begins with Bingley’s arrival. One day when Mrs. Bennet hears that she has a new neighbor called Bingley, a wealthy bachelor. She is so happy and wants to arrange one of her five daughters’ marriages with him. Luckily, Bingley and Jane fall in love with each other at the first sight on a country party. Darcy, a friend of Bingley’s, also comes to the party and strikes the sights. Many girls are attracted by him, but he thinks that all of them don’t suit his preference, including Elizabeth, which shows others an impression of his pride. Before long, Darcy falls in love with Elizabeth while Elizabeth is disgusted with his pride and has a prejudice against him. And later, a dashing young militia officer named Wickham tells Elizabeth that he has once suffered the unjust treatment from Darcy, which increases Elizabeth’s prejudice against Mr. Darcy. On the other hand, Mr. Da rcy and Bingley’s two sisters disgust s with the vulgarity of Mrs. Bennet and her two youngest daughters, which effectively separates Bingley and Jane. As the conflict increases, what should they do? Should they just remain sitting down and do nothing to save their love? No! One day Darcy sends Elizabeth a letter, in which he justifies the separation of his friend Bingley and Jane and also makes it clear that what kind of person Wickham is. At last, Mr. Darcy removes her misunderstandings of him. And Elizabeth changes her attitudes towards him. Once when Elizabeth visits her uncle and aunt in the north of England, she meets Darcy there and witnesses his changes. He is no longer proud and becomes gentle and attentive. All these makes their marriage arranged, and they also suitably provide for Bingley and Jane’s reuni on and engagement. The story ends with their happy marriage.This novel is far more than a love story, but also it is a novel reflecting the social reality in Britain in the end of 18th century and the early of 19th century. The writer Jane Austen discloses mid-class young ladies’ different ideas of marriage and love through describing the different ways that Mr. and Mrs. Bennet’s five daughters do with their marriage problems. And from this book, we can know the writer’s idea about love and marriage that it is wrong to get married just for property, wealth and social status, but it is also stupid without taking those elements into consideration. In our modern society, such phenomenon still exists. A lot of parents try hard to interfere with their children’s marriages. Educational background, possession, and job remain the main aspects that may have an effect on one’s marriage. Marrying for money is still a big problem in our society.。

Pride and Prejudice (BBC) 1 scriptIt's a fair prospect. Pretty enough, I grant you. It's nothing to Pemberley, I know. But I must settle somewhere. Have I your approval?- Y ou'll find the society something savage. - Country manners?I think they're charming.- Then you'd better take it. - Thank you, I shall.I shall close with the attorney directly.I want to wear it today. Look what you've done to it! Mamma, mamma!Lydia has torn up my bonnet and says she will wear it to church. Tell her she shall not!I shall wear it, for it's all my own work. She'd be a fright in it. She's too plain to look well in it!- No, you shall not have it! - Lydia! Kitty! Girls!Would you tear my nerves into shreds? Let her have it, Kitty. But it's mine! Y ou let her have everything that is mine!Oh, what is to become of us all? Jane, Lizzy, where are you?- Here, mamma. - Coming, mamma.My dear! Mr Bennet! Wonderful news!- Netherfield Park is let at last! - Is it?Y es, it is, for I have just had it from Mrs Long.-Do you not want to know who's taken it?- I have no objection to hearing it.It is taken by a young man of large fortune from the north of England. A single man of large fortune, my dear. He came down on Monday to see the place.His name is Bingley and he will be in possession by Michaelmas. And he has 5,000 a year!-What a fine thing for our girls!- How so? How can it affect them?Mr Bennet, why are you so tiresome? Y ou know that I'm thinking of his marrying one of them. For a single man with a good fortune must be in want of a wife.Y es, he must indeed! And who better than one of our five girls?Lydia!- What a fine joke if he chose me! - Or me!So that is his design in settling here? To marry one of our daughters?"Design"? How can you talk such nonsense?But he may fall in love with one of them.- Therefore you must visit him directly he comes. - No, no, I see no occasion for that.- Mr Bennet! - Go yourself with the girls.- Still better, send them by themselves. - By themselves?!A ye, for you're as handsome as any of them. Mr Bingley might like you best of the party.Lydia...Hill!Oh, Hill! Hill, I am so distressed!Mr Bennet says he will not visit Mr Bingley when he comes. - There, there. - Can't you reason with him?- I daresay it'll all be well. - No, it will not!- For he is bent on ruining us all. - Mamma, he's teasing you. He will call on Mr Bingley. He calls on any new neighbour. Jane, how can you say that? Y ou heard him!- Y ou know your father has a will of iron. - Y ou're in the right, my dear.I'll tell you what I'll do. I shall write to Mr Bingley, informing him that I have five daughters, and he is welcome to any of them.They're all silly and ignorant, like other girls.Well, Lizzy has more wit than the rest.But he may prefer a stupid wife, as others have done before him.- There, will that do? - No! I beg you will not write if you...Y ou take delight in vexing me!Y ou have no compassion on my poor nerves!Y ou mistake me. I have a high respect for your nerves.They've been my old friends for 20 years.- Y ou don't know what I suffer. - Well, I hope you'll get over it, and live to see many young men of 5,000 a year move here.It's no use if 20 such should come, since you won't visit them. Depend upon it, my dear. When there are 20, I'll visit them all. Y ou see, Jane? He won't be prevailed upon. He'll see us all ruined.If only we'd been able to have sons!Misfortunes, we are told, are sent to test our fortitude,and may often reveal themselves as blessings in disguise. Lord, I'm so hungry!If I could love a man who would love me enough to take me for 50 pounds a year,I should be very well pleased.Y es.But such a man could hardly be sensible and I could never love a man who was out of his wits.Oh, Lizzy.A marriage... where either partner cannot love nor respect the other,that cannot be agreeable... to either party.As we have daily proof. But beggars, you know, cannot be choosers.We're not very poor, Lizzy.With father's estate withheld from the female line, we have only our charms.One of us at least will have to marry very well.And since you're five times as pretty as the rest of us,and have the sweetest disposition, the task will fall on you. But, Lizzy...I would wish...I should so much like... to marry for love.And so you shall, I'm sure.Only take care you fall in love with a man of good fortune. Well, I shall try. To please you.And you?I am determined that only the deepest love will induce me into matrimony. So... I shall end an old maid,and teach your 10 children to embroider cushions and play their instruments very ill.- Good night, mamma. - My head is very ill tonight.I said, I wouldn't dance with him if he was the last man in Meryton!- Good night, Lydia. Good night, Kitty. - Good night, Lizzy! Lizzy!Wait till you hear our news!- Mr Bingley has come! - Sir William Lucas called on him!- Save your breath. I will tell mamma. - I don't wish to know. Why care for Mr Bingley? We'll never be acquainted with him.But, mamma!Don't keep coughing so, Kitty! Have a little compassion on my nerves.-I don't cough for my own amusement.-- 40 servants, and he's very handsome.-He declared that he loves to dance!- He said he'd come to the next ball!- At the Assembly Rooms! - On Saturday!- With six ladies and four gentlemen. - It was 12 ladies and seven gentlemen.- Too many ladies. - Lydia, I beg you would stop!We will never know Mr Bingley and it pains me to hear of him.But mamma! - I'm sick of Mr Bingley!I'm sorry to hear that.If I'd known as much this morning, I should never have called on him.Y ou have called on him?!I'm afraid we cannot escape the acquaintance now.My dear Mr Bennet! How good you are to us.- Well, well. - Girls, girls, is he not a good father?And never to tell us! What a good joke!And now you shall all dance with Mr Bingley!I hope he has a strong constitution!And a fondness for silly young women.My dear Mr Bennet, nothing you say shall ever vex me again. I'm sorry to hear it. Well, Kitty.I think you may cough as much as you choose now.- Shall we be quite safe here, Mr Darcy? - Damned silly way to spend an evening.Mr Bingley!Allow me the pleasure of welcoming you to our little assembly.Sir William, I am very glad to see you.There's nothing that I love better than a country dance.- Do you know who the two ladies are? - Mr Bingley's sisters, I understand.One is married to that gentleman, Mr Hurst.- The taller gentleman? - No, the other.Better and better!V ery elegant.Better pleased with themselves than what they see, I think. Lizzy! Jane! Come here!Y ou see that gentleman? Lady Lucas says he is Mr Bingley's oldest friend. His name is Darcy and he has a mighty fortune and a great estate in Derbyshire.Bingley's wealth is nothing to his!10,000 a year! At least! Don't you think he's the handsomest man you've ever seen, girls?I wonder if he'd be as handsome if he weren't so rich.Oh, Lizzy! They're coming over. Smile, girls! Smile!Mrs Bennet.Mr Bingley would want to become acquainted with you and your daughters.Sir, that is very good of you.This is Jane, my eldest.And Elizabeth. And Mary sits over there.And Kitty and Lydia, my youngest, you see there dancing.- Do you like to dance yourself? - There is nothing I love better, madam.If Miss Bennet is not otherwise engaged,may I be so bold as to claim the next two dances?- I am not engaged, sir. - Good.Y ou do us great honour, sir. Thank the gentleman, Jane. Mamma.And you, sir? Are you fond of dancing, too?Oh, I beg your pardon. Mrs Bennet, may I present my friend, Mr Darcy?Y ou are very welcome to Hertfordshire I am sure, sir.I hope you have come here eager to dance, as your friend has? Thank you, madam. I rarely dance.Let this be one of the occasions, sir, for I wager you'll not easily find such lively music or such pretty partners.Pray, excuse me, ma'am.Well! Did you ever meet such a proud disagreeable man!- He will hear you. - I don't care if he does.And his friend disposed to be so agreeable and everything charming.Who is he to think himself so far above his company?The very rich can afford to give offence wherever they go.- We need not care for his good opinion. - No, indeed! Perhaps he's not so very handsome after all?No, indeed! Quite ill-favoured.Certainly nothing at all to Mr Bingley!I'll show them!I wonder at Kitty and Lydia, that they are so fond of dancing.I take little pleasure in a ball.I would take pleasure, if there were enough partners as agreeable as Jane's.I believe the rewards of observation and reflection are much greater.Y es, when there are none others to be had.We shall have to be philosophers, Mary.Come, Darcy, I must have you dance! I must. I hate to see you standing about in this stupid manner! Y ou had much better dance!I certainly shall not. At an assembly such as this? It would be insupportable. Y our sisters are engaged. Y ou know it would punish me to stand up with any other woman.Good God, Darcy! I wouldn't be as fastidious as you are for a kingdom!Upon my honour, I never met so many pleasant girls in my life! Several of them uncommonly pretty.Y ou have been dancing with the only handsome girl in the room.Darcy, she is the most beautiful creature I ever beheld. Look, look! There's one of her sisters. She's very pretty too.I dare say very agreeable.She's tolerable, I suppose, but not handsome enough to tempt me. I'm in no humour to consider young ladies who are slighted by other men. Go back to your partner. Enjoy her smiles. Y ou're wasting your time on me.Jane was so admired!There was nothing like it!- Oh, Lord! I'm so fagged! - Lydia and I danced every dance. And Mary none!And Mr Bingley favoured Jane above every other girl. For he danced the first two with her, and then the next with Charlotte Lucas, which vexed me greatly, but lo, there in the very next nothing would please him but to stand up with Jane again. And then he danced with Lizzy, and what do you think he did next?Enough, madam! For God's sake! Let's hear no more of his partners!Would he had sprained his ankle in the first dance!And his sisters! Oh, such charming women!So elegant and obliging! I wish you had seen them.- The lace on Mrs Hurst's gown... - No lace, Mrs Bennet, I beg you.But the man he brought with him! 'Mr Darcy', as he calls himself, is not worth our concern, though he may be the richest man in Derbyshire.The proudest, the most horrid, disobliging...He slighted poor Lizzy, and flatly refused to stand up with her. Slighted my Lizzy, did he?I didn't care for him either, so it's of little matter.Another time, Lizzy, I would not dance with him if he should ask you.I believe, ma'am, I may safely promise you never to dance with Mr Darcy.So none of the Hertfordshire ladies could please you, Mr Darcy?Not even the famous Miss Bennets?I never met with pleasanter people or prettier girls!Y ou astonish me. I saw little beauty, and no breeding at all. The eldest Miss Bennet is, I grant you, very pretty.A fine concession! Admit it, she's an angel!- She smiles too much. - Jane Bennet is a sweet girl.But the mother!I heard Eliza Bennet described as a famous local beauty.- What do you say to that, Mr Darcy? - I should as soon call her mother a wit.That's too cruel!I don't understand why you go through the world determined to be displeased with everything and everyone.I will never understand why you approve of everything and everyone you meet.Y ou shall not make me think ill of Miss Bennet.Indeed he shall not! I shall dare his disapproval and declare she is a dear sweet girl, despite her unfortunate relations, and I should not be sorry to know her better!No, nor I! Y ou see, Mr Darcy, we are not afraid of you.I would not have you so.What? A ye, very true. Damned tedious waste of an evening. He's just what a young man ought to be.Sensible, lively, and I never saw such happy manners! Handsome too, which a young man ought to be if he possibly can.He seems to like you very much, which shows good judgement.Y ou may like him. Y ou've liked many a stupider person.Dear Lizzy!He could be happier in his choice of sisters and friends.- But the sisters he cannot help. - Did you not like them?Not at all. Their manners are quite different from his.t first, perhaps, but after a while they were pleasing.Miss Bingley is to keep house. They will be very charming neighbours.- One of them maybe. - No, Lizzy, I'm sure you're wrong. Even Mr Darcy may improve on closer acquaintance.Will he be in humour to consider young ladies who are slighted by other men?Never!"She is tolerable, I suppose,but not handsome enough to tempt me."- It was very wrong of him to speak so. - Indeed it was!Capital offence!Oh, look! Charlotte is come.Charlotte!Lizzy! My father is to give a party at Lucas Lodge and you are all invited! I hope Lucas Lodge will be graced with your presence on many occasions.Here, you see, we are all easy with no awkwardness or ceremony.Quite.Oh, yes, my dear. 5,000 a year!Don't they look well together? A most agreeable young man! And he would dance every dance with Jane. Nothing else would do!Are you pleased with Hertfordshire, Colonel Forster?V ery much, Lady Lucas. Especially this evening.A regiment of infantry doesn't find a ready welcome everywhere.I think your officers will be very well pleased with Meryton. Denny and Sanderson seem well pleased already!No doubt you attend assemblies at St. James's Court?- We go but rarely, sir. - Indeed! I am surprised.I should be happy to introduce you there at any time when I'm in town.Y ou're too kind, sir.Well! Well!Good, good.Capital! Capital!Insufferable conceit! To imagine that we would need his assistance in society.I am sure he is a good sort of man, Caroline.And I am sure he kept a good sort of shop before his elevation to the Knighthood.Poor Darcy. What agonies he must be suffering.Are you in Meryton to subdue the discontented populace, sir, or to defend Hertfordshire against the French?Neither, ma'am. We hope to winter peacefully at Meryton.My soldiers are in great need of training and my officers in ever great need of society.When you are settled, I hope you'll give a ball.- Oh, yes, my dear, do! - Would a ball be well received?Who's giving a ball? I long for a ball, and so does Denny!- And Sanderson. Don't you? - I d-do indeed.- Most passionately. - Little Sanderson, I knew you would! Make him give a ball! We'll dance with all the officers.If Mary would play something, we could dance now!Mary, no more dull stuff, play something jolly. We want to dance!But there are still two movements. Mamma! Tell them it isn't fair!Oh, play a jig, Mary. No one wants your concertos here. I fear their taste is not as fine as yours and mine, Mary,but let's oblige them this once. There is no one here who plays as well as you!V ery well. Though you know it gives me little pleasure.- Jane, Mr Bingley, come and dance! - Not now, Lydia.Capital! Capital!Mr Bingley continues his attentions to Jane, Lizzy.- I'm very happy for her, Charlotte. - She seems well pleased with him.If he continues so, she's in a fair way to be in love with him.And Mr Bingley? Do you think he is in love?- It's clear that he likes her very much. - Then she should leave him in no doubt. She should show more affection than she feels, not less, if she is to secure him.- "Secure him"? Charlotte. - Y es, she should secure him soon! Before she is sure of his character and certain of her own regard for him?But of course! Happiness in marriage is entirely a matter of chance. There will always be vexation and grief.It's better to know in advance as little as possible of the defects of your partner.Is it not?- Y ou would never act like that yourself! - Well, it seems that Jane will not.So we must hope that Mr Bingley will.He gets little encouragement from his sisters.Or his friend.- Mr Darcy looks at you a great deal. - I can't think why! Unless to frighten me with his contempt.I wish he would not come into society. He only makes people uneasy.What a charming amusement for young people this is! Nothing like dancing!A refinement of every polished society.- And every unpolished society. - Sir?Every savage can dance.Oh, yes. Y es, quite.I should speak to my sister before she exposes us all to ridicule.Capital! Capital!Miss Eliza! Why are you not dancing? Mr Darcy, allow me topresent this young lady to you as a very desirable partner.Y ou cannot refuse to dance, I'm sure, when so much beauty is before you.Indeed, sir. I have not the least intention of dancing. Please don't suppose that I moved this way in order to beg for a partner.I would be happy if you would dance with me, Miss Bennet. Thank you. But excuse me, I... am not inclined to dance.Why not, when you see Mr Darcy has no objection? Although he dislikes the amusement in general.- Mr Darcy is all politeness. - He is!And why should he not be, considering the inducement?Who could object to such a partner? Eh, Darcy?I beg you would excuse me.Well, well... Oh, Capital, Lydia! Capital!I believe I can guess your thoughts at this moment.I should imagine not.Y ou are thinking how insupportable it would be to spend many evenings in such tedious company.My mind was more agreeably engaged. I've been meditating on the pleasure, which a pair of fine eyes in the face of a pretty woman can bestow.And may one dare ask whose are the eyes that inspired these reflections?Miss Elizabeth Bennet's.Miss Elizabeth Bennet?I am all astonishment.From Netherfield! Oh, Jane! Well, what does it say?- It is from Miss Bingley. - Oh, well, that is a good sign, too. Give it to me."My dear friend!"There now!"Dine with Louisa and me today..."La di da, la di da, la di da, la di da..."...as the gentlemen are to dine with the officers." That's unlucky!Still, you must go and make what you can of it. "Y ours ever, Caroline Bingley." V ery elegant hand!- May I have the carriage, father? The carriage! No, indeed.Y ou must go on horseback, for it looks like rain.- Then you will have to stay the night. - Mother!Why do you look at me like that? Would you go there without seeing Mr Bingley?No, indeed.Y ou will go on Nellie. That will do very well indeed! There, Lizzy. Y ou see?It is all exactly as I planned.Now... let me see if I've got this right, Jane.Y our mother's sister is named Mrs Philips?- Y es. - And Mr Philips' estate is...?He lives in Meryton. He's an attorney. And your mother's brother lives in London?Y es. In Gracechurch Street.In which part of London is Gracechurch Street, Jane?I...Forgive me, I...Fosset, get help. Miss Bennet is unwell.Well, my dear, if Jane should die of this fever,it will be comfort to know that it was all in pursuit of Mr Bingley, and under your orders.Oh, nonsense! People do not die of little trifling colds.- She will be very well taken care of. - I think I must go to Netherfield.No, there's no call for that!Jane is very well where she is. And you know there is nothing for you there.Go to Meryton with your sisters and meet the officers.A ye, there are more than enough to go around.I know that Jane would wish me to be with her.I suppose that's a hint for me to send for the carriage.No, father, I'd much rather walk.It's barely three miles to Netherfield and I'll be back for dinner. Walk three miles in all that dirt? Y ou'll not be fit to be seen.I shall be fit to see Jane, which is all I want.I'm quite determined, mother.I know! Lydia and I will set you as far as Meryton.A ye, let's call on Denny early, before he is dressed. What a shock he will get!- Ammm! - Our life holds few distinctions, Mrs Bennet,but I think we may safely boast that here sit two of the silliest girls in the country.- 'Bye, Lizzy! - Isn't that Captain Carter? Make haste!- Miss Bennet. - Mr Darcy.I am come to enquire after my sister.- On foot? - As you see.Would you be so kind as to take me to her?Well, we must allow her to be an excellent walker, I suppose. But her appearance this morning! She really looked almost wild!I could hardly keep my countenance!Scampering about the country because her sister has a cold! Her hair, Louisa!Her petticoat! I hope you saw it, brother. Six inches deep in mud, I am certain!It escaped my notice. I thought she looked remarkably well.- Y ou observed it, I'm sure, Mr Darcy. - I did.I'm inclined to think you wouldn't wish your sister to make such an exhibition.Certainly not.It seems to me to show an abominable sort of conceited independence.It shows a pleasing affection for her sister.Mr Darcy, has this escapade affected your admiration for her fine eyes?Not at all. They were brightened by the exercise.But Jane Bennet is a sweet girl!It's very sad she has such an unfortunate family, such low connections.Their uncle, she told us, is in trade, and lives in Cheapside! Perhaps we should call, when we are next in town.They'd be as agreeable, had they uncles enough to fill all Cheapside!With such connections they have little chance of marrying well, Bingley.That is the material point.Miss Bennet, how does your sister do? Is she any better?- I'm afraid that she is quite unwell. - Let me send for Mr Jones.- Y ou must stay until she is recovered. - I would not wish to inconvenience you.I won't hear of anything else. I'll send to Longbourn for your clothes.Y ou're very kind, sir.Is there any sport today, or not?Get in there!There. Shall I disgrace you, do you think?Y ou look very pretty, Lizzy, as you are well aware.Oh, Jane.I'd much rather stay here with you.The Superior Sisters wish me miles away.Only your Mr Bingley is civil and attentive.- He's not my Mr Bingley. - Oh, I think he is.Or he very soon will be.I believe you will find Mr Bingley is in the drawing room, ma'am.Thank you.Mr Darcy, come and advise me. Mr Hurst carries all before him!- Ha! - Ooh!May I enquire after your sister, Miss Bennet?-Thank you. I believe she's a little better.- I am very glad to hear it.- Mr Hurst, I'm quite undone! Should have played the deuce. He's undone us all, Mr Darcy!- Will you join us, Miss Bennet? - I thank you, no.Y ou prefer reading to cards? Singular!Miss Bennet despises cards. She's a great reader and has no pleasure in anything else.I deserve neither such praise nor such censure.I am not a great reader and take pleasure in many things.And what do you do so secretly, sir?It's no secret. I'm writing to my sister.Dear Georgiana! I long to see her! Is she much grown since the Spring? Is she as tall as me?She's now about Miss Elizabeth Bennet's height, or a little taller.And so accomplished! Her performance at the pianoforte is exquisite!- Do you play, Miss Bennet? - A ye, but very ill indeed.All young ladies are accomplished! They sing, they draw, they dance, speak French and German, cover screens, and I know not what!Not half a dozen would satisfy me as accomplished. Certainly! No woman can be esteemed accomplished,who does not also possess a certain something in her air,in the manner of walking, in the tone of her voice, her address and expressions.And to this she must yet add something more substantial, in the improvement of her mind by extensive reading.I'm no longer surprised at you knowing only six accomplished women.I wonder at your knowing any.Y ou're severe upon your sex, Miss Bennet.I must speak as I find.Perhaps you haven't had the advantage of moving in society enough. There are many very accomplished young ladies amongst our acquaintance.Come, come! This is a fine way to play cards! Y ou're all light! Look, girls! Is it not a fair prospect?And now the mother! Are we to be invaded by every Bennet in the country?It's too much to be borne!Mrs Bennet! Welcome! I hope you don't find Miss Bennet worse than expected.Indeed I do, sir! She's very ill indeed, and suffers a vast deal, though with the greatest patience in the world, for she has the sweetest temper.But she is much too ill to be moved. We must trespass a little longer on your kindness.But of course!Miss Bennet will receive every possible attention, I assure you.Y ou are very good.Well, you have a sweet room here!I think you will never want to leave Netherfield.I'd be happy to live in the country forever. Wouldn't you, Darcy?Y ou would? Y ou don't find the society somewhat confined and unvarying?Confined and unvarying? Indeed it is not, sir!The country is a vast deal pleasanter than town, whatever you may say about it!Mamma, you mistake Mr Darcy's meaning.Do I? He seems to think the country nothing at all!- Mamma. - Confined, unvarying!I would have him know we dine with 24 families! Mamma? Have you seen Charlotte Lucas since I came away? Y es, she called yesterday with Sir William. What an agreeable man he is! That is my idea of good breeding. Those persons who fancy themselves very important, and never open their mouths, quite mistake the matter.Mr Bingley, did you not promise a ball when you were settled here? It will be a scandal if you don't keep your word.I am perfectly ready to keep my engagement. When your sister is recovered, you shall name the day of the ball, if you please.There, now, Lydia! That's a fair promise for you! That's generosity for you! That's what I call gentlemanly behaviour! Miss Eliza Bennet.Let me persuade you to follow my example and take a turn about the room. It's so refreshing!Will you not join us, Mr Darcy?- That would defeat the object. - What do you mean, sir?- What can he mean? - I think we would do better not to enquire.Nay, we insist on knowing your meaning, sir!That your figures are to best advantage when walking,and that I might best admire them from here.Shocking! Abominable reply!-How shall we punish him, Miss Eliza?- Nothing so easy. Tease him.- Laugh at him. - Laugh at Mr Darcy? Impossible!- He is a man without fault. - Is he indeed? A man without fault?That is not possible for anyone.But it has been my study to avoid those weaknesses which expose ridicule.Such as vanity, perhaps, and pride?Y es, vanity is a weakness indeed.But pride... Where there is a superiority of mind, pride will always be under regulation.I have faults, but I hope they're not of understanding.My temper I cannot vouch for.It might be called resentful.My good opinion, once lost, is lost forever.That is a failing indeed, but I cannot laugh at it.I believe every disposition has a tendency to some evil.-Y our defect is a propensity to hate everyone.- Y ours is wilfully to misunderstand them.Some music?Give your parents my warmest salutations.Y our father is most welcome to shoot with us at any time convenient.Thank you, sir. Y ou are very kind.Goodbye.Goodbye. Drive on, Rossiter.How pleasant it is to have one's house to oneself again!But I fear Mr Darcy is mourning the loss of Miss Eliza Bennet's pert opinions and fine eyes.Quite the contrary, I assure you.Oh, Jane! I'm sorry to say it, but not withstanding your excellent Mr Bingley,I've never been so happy to leave a place in my life!Pride and Prejudice (BBC) 3 scriptLizzy! Jane!What do you think? Mr Collins has made an offer of marriage to Charlotte Lucas!She's accepted him!Charlotte?Engaged to Mr Collins?Impossible!The fireplace in the great room at Rosings would be much larger than that.A fireplace of truly prodigious dimensions.But why should you be surprised, my dear Lizzy?Do you think it incredible that Mr Collins could procure any woman's good opinion,because he didn't succeed with you?Charlotte, I didn't mean...I was surprised.Charlotte, if Mr Collins has been so fortunate as to secure your affections, I'm delighted for you both.I see what you are feeling.I'm not romantic, you know.I never was. I ask only a comfortable home.And, considering Mr Collins' character and situation in life, I'm convinced my chance of happiness with him is as fair as most who enter the marriage state.My dear Charlotte!Cousin Elizabeth, you can see before you the happiest of men! Jane, it was such a humiliating spectacle!She knows she's marrying one of the stupidest men in England.I never believed her capable of that.Lizzy, you do not make allowances for differences of situation and temper.Our cousin Mr Collins is not the cleverest of men, perhaps, but he is respectable.He is not vicious, and as far as fortune goes, it's an eligible match.V ery eligible! Y ou wouldn't think of marrying a man like that, simply to secure your own comfort.No, but Lizzy, not everyone is the same.。

Pride and Prejudice 15--18

The Church’s power is perfectly displayed in its access to these livings.
Two questions about advowson reveal to us the heart of the Church’s aristocratic and privileged feature.
Who gave the livings away? Who got them?
The livings varied in size, quality, and prestige. Some were quite modest and valuable only for the tithes the incumbent might collect; other were large and luxurious. They were owned by individuals or patrons, such as large landowners, and institutions, such as monasteries and universities.
The man chosen to be the incumbent was full owner of the benefice and property, which could be farmed or let, until his death.
Besides the fees for services such as baptism and marriage, his other source of income was the tithe, a money payment paid as part of the rental of all the land in the parish.

傲慢与偏见中英逐行对照珍藏之欧阳引擎创编

《傲慢与偏见》欧阳引擎(2021.01.01)1 The Bennets'new neighbour1 班纳特家的新邻居It is a truth well known to all the world that an unmarried man in possession of a large fortune must be in need of a wife. And when such a man moves into a neighbourhood, even if nothing is known about his feelings or opinions,this truth is so clear to the surrounding families,that they think of him immediately as the future husband of one or other of their daughters.家产万贯而又尚未婚配的男人一定需要一个贤内助,这是一条世界上尽人皆知的真理。

当这样一位男人搬到了附近时,这条真理在邻居们心中就显得更加清楚,他们哪怕对他的感情或意见一无所知,也会马上把他当作他们哪个女儿未来的丈夫。

‘My dear Mr Bennet,’said Mrs Bennet to her husband one day,‘have you heard that someone is going to rent Netherfield Park at last?’“亲爱的班纳特先生,”一天,班纳特夫人对她丈夫说,“你听说了吗?尼日斐庄园到底还是租出去了。

”‘No,Mrs Bennet,I haven't,’said her husband.“我还没听说,班纳特太太,”她丈夫说。

‘Don't you want to know who is renting it?’cried Mrs Bennet impatiently.“难道你不想知道是谁要租吗?”班纳特太太不耐烦地嚷了起来。

Pride and Prejudice
I have recently read a book that called ‘Pride and Prejudice’. After reading this book, I like this book very much. ‘Pride and Prejudice’is the representative of the famous British writer Jan Austin, the works of daily life for the material, and the artificial writing against the society at that time the popular sentimental novel. Single young Darcy works about the arrogance and prejudice of two Za Elizabeth, wealthy singles, between Bingley and virtuous big Miss Jane emotional imbroglio.
Next, I will say some felling about this book. This book seems to be only two kinds of people, the wise and foolish. There is no absolute good or bad. He used his clever flattery, kept scrubbing their grievances to slander. Darcy, Ridiculous his words full of flaws, and Elizabeth smart can with a rebuttal to Miss Bingley, and the Lady Catherine contradict, but still led by Wei Han. To tell you the truth, I don’t think Elizabeth cheated that he is a ‘fool’. People, always First impressions are strongest. Mr,Darcy arrogant, rude way Elizabeth has already entered the minds, but also how to have a good opinion of him? I said others naturally mean be handsome and highly esteemed Wickham. Undeniable, Wei Hanchang a handsome face, the surface is also equipped with a very ‘gentleman’. Although people are not yet, ‘The face is no good’. In this book, savors carefully, I found that, the whole novel, is attractive, because it is easy humorous style. Elizabeth laughed at the irony, are those who will be a gentleman, the aristocratic ladies undoubtedly exposed the true colors. The so-called ‘arrogant’ refers to rich, high education, sharp eyed young Darcy personality weakness, and the so-called ‘Prejudice’ refers to middle-class upbringing, quite good, clever Miss Elizabeth’s spiritual weakness.
From the point of view of love view, the way in the pursuit of love, we must strengthen our faith, not because of money, fame or other reasons a hasty decision to uphold the search for true love. If some of the other reason is that they can not be tolerated, but also their own can not change, it should be decisive choice to give up, and should cherish each other, not because some people would change their decision, happy to go to their operation.。
