Roy: You expect to get to the theater tonight?

　　Roy: I wish I could be there.

　　罗伊：我真希望我能去那儿。

　　Myra: Why don't you come?

　　玛拉：为什么不去呢？

　　Roy: No, unfortunately I have a colonel's dinner. It takes a lot of nerve to miss a colonel's dinner.

　　罗伊：不幸的是，我得参加上校的晚宴，不赴宴将需要很大的胆量。

　　Myra: Oh, I'm so sorry. This hateful war.

　　玛拉：噢，太遗憾了，这可恶的战争。

　　Roy: Yes, I suppose it is. Yet there is, I don't know, a certain amount of excitement about it too. Around the corner of every second, the fascination of the unknown. We are both facing it this instant.

　　罗伊：是的，我想也是，不过，我不知道，关于它(战争)也有某些让人兴奋之处。即将来临的每一秒钟，都有着未知的魔力。我们都要立即面对它。

　　Myra: Oh. we face the unknown in peacetime, too.

　　玛拉：噢，我们在和平时期也要面对未知。

　　Roy: You are rather matter-of-fact, aren't you?

　　Myra: Yes. You are rather romantic, aren't you?

　　玛拉：是的，你实在是特罗曼蒂克，是吗？

　　[有人喊：空袭警报解除]

　　Roy: Well,there we are, raid is over. Never enjoyed an air raid more. Shall we go now, or wait for the next?

　　罗伊：好的，总算熬过来了，空袭结束了。从没像这样喜欢一次空袭。我们是现在走，还是等待下次空袭？

　　Myra: Oh, it's very tempting but I think we'd better go.

　　玛拉：噢，听起来非常诱惑人，但我想我们最好还是走吧。

　　Roy: Shall I carry that?

　　罗伊：要我帮着拿(包)吗？

　　Myra: no, no, I only drop it in emergencies.

　　玛拉：不，不，我只在紧急时刻才会掉。

　　Roy: Well，I hope I'm around next time it happens.

　　罗伊：好的，我希望下次发生这种情况时我能在你身边。

　　Myra: it isn't very likely, is it? You go back to france, and…

　　玛拉：这不是很有可能，是吗？你将返回法国，并且……

　　Roy: And you?

　　罗伊：那你呢？

　　Myra: We may go to America.

　　玛拉：我们可能去美国。

　　Roy: That does make it unlikely. I'm sorry.

　　罗伊：那真是不太可能。我很遗憾。

　　Myra: So am I.

　　玛拉：我觉得也是。
