(中英文实用版)
Title: Pride and Prejudice - Chapter One Original Text
It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune, must be in want of a wife. However little known the feelings or views of such a man may be on his first entering a house, this truth is so well fixed in the minds of the surrounding families, that he is considered as the rightful property of some one or other of their daughters.
这是一个被普遍认可的事实：一个拥有丰厚财产的单身男子，必定渴望娶妻。

尽管这样的男子在初入一户人家时，他的情感和看法可能鲜为人知，但这样一个真理在周围家庭的脑海中根深蒂固，以至于他们认为他是他们某个女儿应得的财产。

My dear Mr. Bennet, said his lady to him one day, have you heard that Netherfield Park is let at last? Do not you want to tell me who has taken it? I am sure you must have heard something about it.
亲爱的贝内特先生，有一天他的夫人对他说，你听说内瑟菲尔德庄园最后租出去的消息了吗？难道你不想告诉我谁租了它吗？我相信你一定听说了些什么。

I have heard, indeed, by way of a rumour; but I have not been at the trouble of inquiring further, added he, turning back to his book. I have no concern in it. It is enough for me to know that the estate is let. I do not require to know to whom.
的确，我听到了一些传闻；但我没费心去进一步打听，他边说边回头继续看他的书。

这与我无关。

只要知道庄园租出去就足够了。

我不需要知道租给了谁。

You are so strange, Mr. Bennet! replied his wife, you must know that Mrs. Long has been telling me that Netherfield is taken by a young man of large fortune from the north of England; that he came down on Monday in a chaise and four to see the place, and was so much delighted with it, that he agreed with Mr. Morris immediately; that he is to take possession before Michaelmas, and some of his servants are to be in the house by the end of next week.
你真是太奇怪了，贝内特先生！他的妻子回答说，你一定知道朗太太告诉我，内瑟菲尔德被一个来自英格兰北部的富有年轻人租下了；他周一乘坐四轮马车来看这个地方，对它非常满意，立刻与莫里斯先生达成了协议；他将在米迦勒节前搬进来，他的部分仆人将在下周内入住。

What is his name? asked Mr. Bennet, without looking up from his book.
他叫什么名字？。
