第40章 墜入愛河
David: When do you think people normally fall inlove? How can people know when they fall in love?
你覺得人們什么時(shí)候會(huì)墜入愛河呢?別人怎么知道他們相愛了呢?
You: I don't know. I have never had a boyfriend.
我不知道。我沒交過男朋友。
David: Just imagine.
想想看。
You: I imagine that they will think about their lover every second of every minute of every day.And they will want to live together, I think that's a part of being in love. The feeling of being inlove, or having a crush is different from other types of love.
我猜他們會(huì)每時(shí)每刻想著他們的愛人。他們會(huì)想一起生活，我覺得這是相愛的一部分。相愛或熱戀是與其他的愛不同的。
David: At what age do people usually fall in love? Or how old do you think they have their firstboyfriend or girlfriend?
你認(rèn)為人們通常多大開始戀愛或者說有第一個(gè)男朋友、女朋友?
You: 20
20歲。
David: 20?People have the first boyfriend or girlfriend?
20歲?他們才有第一個(gè)男朋友或女朋友?
You: Yes, although some people are more precocious. They might meet in middle school. Ialso know some people who wait until they are 25 or 30. Then they find a partner. Normally inthe past city kids start going steady at a slightly younger age than those from thecountryside.
是的。雖然有些人要早熟一些——可能在中學(xué)就約會(huì)了，但我也認(rèn)識一些一直等到25歲或30歲才開始找對象的人。但是一般來講，過去城市里的年輕人找男朋友或是女朋友要早于農(nóng)村的年輕人。
David: But one of my students told me that nowadays rural kids date at the age of 20, just asold as city kids do.
聽我一個(gè)學(xué)生講，現(xiàn)在城市的孩子和農(nóng)村孩子開始戀愛的時(shí)間都大概在20歲左右。
You: Possibly. So far it's concerned the difference between country side and cities are not soconspicuous.
可能吧。城市和農(nóng)村在這方面的差異并不太明顯。
