原味人文风情:So, I'm at the airport, and they've got this deal for five donuts for five dollars, which is an awesome deal because it's pretty much the same price as buying three donuts, anyway, so it doesn't matter. And I set my stuff down, and I pick up the paper, and I start reading the paper. And this guy sits down across from me. And so I, you know, look over the paper, and he kinda gives me a bit of a smile, and I give him a bit of a nod, and I go back to reading the business section.
我人在机场,店家举办了一个甜甜圈五个五块钱的活动,还真划算,因为这样几乎和买三个的钱一样,很划算。我把东西放好,然后拿起报纸开始读。接着有个男人坐到我对面。于是我越过报纸看他,他对我微笑了一下,我就对他点点头,然后继续读财经新闻。
A little while later, I hear this rustling on the table, and I'm like... I look over, and the guy has got his hand in the bag of donuts. Okay, that's a bit weird, but it doesn't really matter. The guy looks like he's homeless. He probably needs it more than I do. And I've still got four donuts anyways, and I'm not gonna eat all four donuts, so what do I care? So I reach in the bag, and I grab a donut, and I start eating it, and I go back to reading the paper.
过了一会儿,我听到桌上传来一阵窸窸窣窣的声音,我就... 我看过去,那男人已经把手伸进装甜甜圈的袋子里了。嗯,有点儿奇怪,不过其实也没什么。那家伙看起来似乎是游民。他应该比我还需要甜甜圈。反正我还有四个甜甜圈,而且又不会把四个全吃完,所以有什么好在意的?于是我把手伸到袋子里,拿了一个甜甜圈开始吃,然后就又回去看报纸了。
So, I'm just getting into the social pages, and I hear this rustling on the table again. And I look over, and the guy's got his hand in the bag of donuts, again! He takes a bite, and I'm like, What the crap?! Now I'm getting a bit angry, but the precedent has been set, and so I don't feel like I can say anything. But I reach into the bag a bit more aggressively, I take a bite, and I just shake my head like, Whatever.
在我刚看到社会版时,我听到桌上又传来窸窸窣窣的声音。我看过去,那老家伙又把手伸进甜甜圈袋里!他咬了一口,我心想,搞屁啊?!现在我有点儿不爽了,不过之前都给他吃了,所以现在觉得好像不能说他什么。但我有点儿挑衅地伸手到袋子里,咬了一口甜甜圈,然后用一种“随便你”的态度摇摇头。
So, a few minutes have gone by, and there's this call on the loudspeaker for the next departure,and the guy gets up, and he starts gathering up all his stuff. And he gets to the end of the table, and he stops. And I see him out of the corner of my eye, and he reaches into the bag, and he pulls out the last donut. And I'm like, Seriously And he looks at me, he breaks it in two, and he hands it to me. I reach out, and I take this half, and I'm in total disbelief. And he kinda nods at me, and he walks off.
几分钟过去,扩音器里播出下班起飞航班的消息,那家伙站起来,开始收拾他的东西。他走到桌尾,然后停了下来。我用眼角余光看他,他把手伸到袋子里,拿出最后一个甜甜圈。我心想,有没有搞错?他看着我,把甜甜圈分成两半,然后分一半给我。我伸出手去拿这一半甜甜圈,整个难以置信。他对我稍稍点点头就走了。
So, while I'm sitting here pondering the absurdity of what's just happened, I hear the call for my flight. And so I get up, and I grab my bag, and I grab my jacket. And under my jacket is my bag of donuts! Not only was I eating that guy's donuts the whole time and he didn't say anything, he took out his last donut, and he broke it in half and gave it to me.
当我坐在那儿想刚刚到底发生了什么怪事时,我听见我班机的广播。于是我站起身,拿了我的包包、抓起我的外套。结果在我外套底下居然是我的那袋甜甜圈!我一直吃那家伙的甜甜圈,然而他半句话也没说,还拿出最后一个甜甜圈,破成两半分给我。
