美语会话实录第244期(MP3+文本):Must be a mistake!
英文原文:
Yi-jun:Holly! What's wrong? What happened?
Holly:Taylor's dead! He...had...stomach cancer. It all makes sense now.
Yi-jun:His stomachaches, headaches, bad moods-and he threw up at the reunion!
Holly:He had no energy and was so pale and skinny. Why didn't I see it sooner?
Yi-jun:Maybe the hospital got the wrong person! Call Femi. She works in that cancer ward.
Holly:OK, and I'll call his place. You check the obituaries in the paper. If it's true, he...it must be a mistake.
参考译文:
怡君:荷莉!怎么了?发生什么事了?
荷莉:泰勒死了!他……得了……胃癌。现在一切全都说得通了。
怡君:他的胃痛、头痛、坏脾气……还有他在同学会上吐!
荷莉:他精神不济而且又白又瘦。我为什么没有早点看出来?
怡君:或许医院搞错人了!打给费咪。她在那间医院的癌症病房工作。
荷莉:好。我还会打电话去他家。你去查报纸上的讣闻。如果是真的,他……这一定是搞错了
