BBC环球慢速英语 第98期:听众来信(5)
I wanted to surprise Sara for the proposal. So, I had to make sure she would not expect it. We needed to do something that we often do together. I enjoy making short films about my life. Often, Sara helps me make these films. She holds the camera while I speak. One day, I asked her to help me record a short film. We were visiting a nearby town - a place we go often. And we really like it there. I told her I would be talking about the town.
我希望给萨拉一个求婚惊喜。所以,我一定要确保她不会想到我会求婚这件事。我们要做一些我们在一起时经常做的事情。我喜欢将我的生活拍成短片。通常萨拉会帮我拍摄这些短片。我在讲话时,她帮我拿着摄像机拍摄。有一天,我请她帮我拍段短片。我们去了附近的一座城镇,那是我们经常去的地方。我们非常喜欢那里。我跟她说我会说一些和这座城镇有关的事情。
She turned the camera on and I began to speak. But instead of talking about the town, I asked her to marry me! She was so surprised she turned the camera off! But she did say yes! And our marriage proposal is now recorded on film.
她打开摄像机,然后我开始讲话。不过我并没有谈论这座城镇,我向她求婚了!她当时非常惊讶,所以她把摄像机关掉了!不过她答应了我的求婚!我的求婚被记录在了胶片上。
I am really happy and excited to be married!
