Unit 10 Rainy Day Rose 雨中的玫瑰

It was drizzling outside. I was standing at the bus stop when I noticed a woman standing in the rain instead of under the cover.
外面下着毛毛雨,我站在公交站牌前,看着一位女士毫无遮掩地站在雨中。

She was clearly upset about something and trying to make a call on her cell phone. She shouted some angry words into the phone then slammed it shut. The rain couldn't hide her tears.
显然为了什么事情不开心。她打手机,对着电话生气地大声说话,然后用力关上手机,雨水掩饰不住她的泪水。

I had a bouquet of flowers for the host of the dinner party I was going to. I plucked out a beautiful red rose and gave it to the woman as she was getting into a taxi. Before she closed the door, she said in a weak voice,"Thank you."
我当时捧了一束花,打算送给我待会要出席的晚宴主人,当那位女士要搭计程车时,我拔了一朵美丽的红玫瑰送给她,她在关车门前,用微弱的声音向我道谢。

A few years later, I saw the same woman at a party. I recognized her and introduced myself. I reminded her of the rainy day I gave her a flower.
几年后,我在一个宴会上遇到这位女士,我认出他,并向她自我介绍,我向她提到,在一个雨天,我送过她一朵花。

She hugged me and said that the rose made her day. She told me that on the day I gave her the flower she had discovered someone had betrayed her, but the flower reminded her that there are still good people in the world.
她拥抱我,说那朵玫瑰让她很快乐。她告诉我,我送她花的那天,她发现有人背叛她。可是那朵花提醒她,世界上还是有很多好人。
