THE GIFT OF THE MAGIE

第一幕

Della and her husband lived a poor life. They had two valuable things: one was Jim’s gold watch and the other was Della’s beautiful, brown hair. One day, they go out for a walk.

(Della approached to a special comb，fiddling with her attractive hair. )

Della: (turned back to Jim then asked) Jim, this comb is strange, isn’t it

Jim: (Got close to Della) do you like it We can buy it if you do.

Dells: No. I… I am just thinking about its strange shape. (开始玩赏梳子)

Jim: (Looking at and touching Della’s beautiful hair, he considered that …Maybe I can buy a beautiful comb for Della, as a Christmas gift! Her beautiful hair deserves it. Yes, she would surely like it!

Della: Jim (Smile) let’s go and see what other interesting things can find. (于是挽着Jim 的手继续往前走)

Della passed by a jewelry shop, and saw a golden chain. She felt happy and went into the shop. There were two wealthy women in the shop; the boss was showing them jewelry.

路过一个珠宝店，Della从橱窗里看到一条金色的怀表链子。很高兴，便往店里走。Della看到两位贵妇人在柜台前挑选珠宝。店老板谄媚地向她们介绍珠宝和夸赞她们。

Boss: (奴颜婢膝，动作夸张)Wow! Dear Madam, look, you are so perfect when you wear this ring!

It’s terrific!

Woman1: (美滋滋地对老板说) Really

Boss: (连忙谄媚地说)Yes, yes!

Woman1: (假装淡定地侧过头问woman2)w2, how do you think of it

Woman2: (不屑一顾地瞟了一眼) Em…The color is good… How do you thin k about my neck chain

Boss:(赶紧冲上她们跟前，夸耀说) Wow! You have chosen one of the best neck chains. The chain is perfect for you.

Woman1:W1, what is you idea

这时德拉和吉姆进来了

Woman1:（讽刺的口吻） wow, new guests.

Woman2: Oh! So shabby shirt does she wear! How do they dare to come here

两个贵妇走到德拉和吉姆面前

Woman1: Do you want to buy some rings or some chains Maybe it is a little bit expensive for you.(show off炫耀 her ring)

Woman2:（骄傲且有点讥讽地问德拉） How do you think about my neck chain Or do you think that the 500$ one is better （拿起另外一条500$的项链在德拉面前显摆）

Della:（抑制心中的不快,强笑着说）Both of them are beautiful, Madam. We just come to have a look at the goods.

Boss:（这时珠宝商品商站在原地整理着自己的商品，冷冷的说） welcome to our jewelry shop. 德拉走到表链那里，看见标价为40$.而吉姆则留在原地并面对着两个贵妇。

Woman1: wow! (Look at Jim's watch)Sir, your watch is so special. It must be very expensive.

Jim :( shame有点害羞)My father gave it to me.

Wonman2:（轻视的） I had guessed it.

Della:（德拉回到丈夫身边）I think my husband’s watch is beautiful, don't need to buy anything from here. (Then she went out with Jim arm in arm.)

两个贵妇用鄙夷的目光看着他们走出店

第二幕

Della thought that the watch chain in the jewelry store matches Jim’ watch very well. Jim's pocket watch is lack of such chain. She try her best to save money to buy Jim a watch chain. One day met Bob who held a blanket of bread. She stopped him anxiously.

Della:(走到鲍勃面前低声说)“Bob, I want to talk with you about something.”

Bob:(不耐烦)what is up I am hurry to send this bread to Miss …if I am late, she would be angry ! Della: I just bought your bread. Don’t you remember

Bob: Yeah, I can remember. So what’s wrong with that
