[J-125]  Let or Help

         让或帮

 

“Cleo, do you allow just any man to kiss you?” a woman asked her fickle young maid.

 

“No, ma'am.  Just those I know and those I love.”

 

“That seems to cover a lot of territory,” said her employer. “What's the difference?”

 

Cleo sighed: “Those I know, I let.  Those I love, I help.” 

 

[译注]

 

「克丽娥,你就是让任何人吻你吗?」一个女人问她那位用情不专的年轻女仆。

 

「不,夫人。只是那些我认识的人和我喜爱的人。」

 

「那好像含盖很多版图啰,」她的雇主说。「不同在哪里?」

 

克丽娥叹息说:「我认识的那些人,我让他们。我喜爱的那些人,我帮他们。」

 

注: fickle (用情不专的), territory (版图、领土), let (让他们吻), help (帮他们吻)。
