职场英语口语：我简直不能相信自己的耳朵了

Glyn：

Morning, Ellie.

早啊，埃莉。

Ellie：

Hi, Glyn. Do you know who’s just got married?? Old MacDonald.

你好，格林。你知道谁刚结婚了吗?老麦克唐纳。

Glyn：

You’re joking. I can hardly believe my ears. He’s over eighty! Who’s the lovely bride?

你在开玩笑呢吧。我简直不能相信自己的耳朵了。他都80多岁了!可爱的新娘是谁呢?

Ellie：

He’s nearly ninety. He met a woman at a church dance and I guess it was love at first sight? for both of them. I guess they are both quite active at their church, so it was easy to meet and spend time together.

他都快90岁了。他在教堂的舞会上认识了一个女人，我想他们两个也算是一见钟情吧。他们俩都挺积极参加教堂活动的，所以就很容易见面并呆在一起。

Glyn：

Wow! Close to? ninety? Are you sure? What about her?

喔!都快90岁了?你肯定吗?那她呢?

Ellie：

I’m positive. I just saw them and asked how they were doing. She is eighty-four and on her sixth marriage.

我肯定。我刚遇见他们了，并且问了一些他们的事情。她84岁了，这已经是她第六次结婚了。

Glyn：

Is she really?

她真是这样的吗?

Ellie：

Yes, she is. And guess what? She has 34 grandchildren and almost 50 great-grandchildren.

是啊，她就是这样的。你知道吗?她已经有34个孙子孙女和将近50个曾孙了。

Glyn：

Really? Quite a woman, isn’t she?

真的?真是个不一般的女人，不是吗?
