  我到这个城市出差,昨天下午下榻在这家旅馆。他和他的妻子就住在我的隔壁。这家旅馆的条件不太好,隔墙很薄,一点都不隔音。他们说话的声音总是很清晰地传过来。很快,我就凭直觉得到了一个印象,那女人很懒,不管什么事情都爱支使丈夫:给我倒杯水;给我找双袜子……

  女人发号施令的手段很高明,使用的都是口气柔和的祈使句。但不管怎样,事无巨细都要男人效劳是很不应该的。他对妻子总是百依百顺,我从未听到过那有什么不耐烦的表示,而且,我听得出来,他极其恭顺而温存,仿佛这么奴役般地被老婆支使得团团转是一种享受似的。于是我猜测:他的妻子很漂亮,因为大凡漂亮的女人都颇有些自命不凡,总把自己当做高贵的公主。

参考译文:

  The woman was very good at commending: her orders were all couched in soft-toned imperative sentences. However, it simply wasn't right, I thought, for her to ask her husband to do everything. But to these orders of hers, he never said a word of “No”, nor did he reveal any sign of impatience. On the contrary, his response showed that he was as meek as a lamb, seeming to regard it as a great pleasure to busy his head of for his slave master. Therefore,I came to the conclusion that his wife must be a great beauty, for beautiful women without exception. stuck up, imagining them-selves noble princesses.
