第3章 劳伦斯家的男孩
Look！said Meg，excitedly，a day or two later．
看哪！一两天之后，麦格兴奋地喊。
She waved a piece of paper at Jo．
她朝琼挥舞着一张纸片。
An invitation to a New Years party at Sallie Gardiners house，and its for both of us．
一张参加萨丽·加迪那家新年聚会的请柬，是给我们俩的。
Mother says we can go,but what shall we wear？
妈妈说我们可以去，可我们应该穿什么哪？
Our best cotton dresses，said Jo， because we havent got anything else.
我们最好的棉制衣裙，琼说，因为我们也没有别的什么可以穿的了。
Yours is as good as new,but mine has a burn and a hole in the back．
你的倒是像新的一样，而我的衣服在背后烧了一个小洞。
Then you must keep your back out of sight，said Meg．
那你就该让后背别对着人家，麦格说。
I'll have a new ribbon for my hair,and my new slippers．And my gloves are all right．
我的头发要有个新飘带，还有我的新鞋。我的手套也准备好了。
Mine are stained，soIll have to go without．
我的弄脏了，所以我就不带了。
You must wear gloves to a dance， Jo！ cried Meg．
你一定得带着手套参加舞会，琼！麦格大喊。
Then well each wear one good one and carry a bad one，said Jo．
那我们就每个人都戴一只好的，手里拿着一只坏的，琼说道。
Meg looked worried．All right， but you will behave nicely，won't you？
麦格看上去很焦虑。那好吧，可你得表现好点，行吗？
Don't stare，or put your hands behind your back．
不许盯着人看，或者把手放到背后。
On New Years Eve，the two younger sisters watched the two older girls get ready for the party．
新年除夕，两个妹妹看着两个姐姐为舞会做准备。
There was a lot of running up and down，and laughing and talking．
她们不停地跑上跑下，边笑边聊。
Meg wanted some curls around her face，
麦格想把面庞两侧的头发弄卷，
so Jo began to work on the papered ends of Megs hair with a pair of hot tongs．
于是琼就用一副热夹子在麦格用纸包好的头发梢上做卷。
大家还在听
