傲慢与偏见 Pride and Prejudice 1 - Chapter 1 A Young Man of Fortune

　　"That's not true at all," said Mr. Bennet calmly. "I will write this young man a letter. I will tell him he has my permission to marry whichever of our daughters he chooses. And I'll make sure that I say something very good about my little Lizzy."

　　"You will not do such a thing!" cried his wife angrily. "Anyway, Elizabeth is no better than our other daughters."

　　"Our daughters," replied Mr. Bennet, "haven't much in way of praise or recommendation. They don't know very much and are often silly, like other girls. But Lizzy is more clever and smarter than her sisters."

　　"Mr. Bermet, how you make me worry! Sometimes I feel you even enjoy it! You don't care about my poor nerves. "

　　Mr. Bennet walked over to the door of his library. "You are wrong, my dear," he said. "I do have feelings for your nerves. After all, they are like old friends. I have lived with them for twenty years."

　　"Oh!" said Mrs. Bennet. She was beginning to cry. "How you enjoy making me worry!"

　　"You will have many other chances to see rich young men move into our neighborhood, my dear. So I hope you can forget this."
