Looking Up Peter in Seattle
西雅圖尋Peter
Last week I was in Seattle and I remembered that my friend Peter had recently moved there. I looked up his name in the telephone book, called, but got the answering machine. Luckily, I finally found him at work. He was looking at a picture on his desk, and I swear he looked like the famous actor Harrison Ford! I know Peter looked up to Harrison Ford, but I was a little surprised to see that he had become a look-alike! I said 'Look lively!' and he raised his eyes and looked me up and down.
上周,我在西雅圖,突然想起朋友皮特最近也搬到了這里。我在電話簿里查找他的名字,并打過去,但只聽到電話留言。幸運的是,最終我在他工作的地方找到了他。他當時正看著桌上的一幅畫,我發(fā)誓,他長得很像注明的演員哈里森·福特!我知道皮特很崇拜哈里森福特,但當我發(fā)現(xiàn)他與哈里森福特長得也很相似時,感到有點驚訝。我喊了一聲“打起精神來!”他抬起目光,上下打量著我。
'Hello! if it isn't my old friend Ken!', Peter said. With that, he got up, looked me up and down and shook my hand.
“你好!這不是我的老朋友肯恩嘛!”皮特說道,他站起身來,上下打量著我,握了握我的手。
I must admit, Peter didn't look his age in the slightest. In fact, he looked as if he was ten years older! I looked him straight in the eye and said, "Well, I was in town and thought I'd look in on you to see how you're doing in Seattle.
我必須得承認,皮特看起來跟他的真實年齡根本不相符。事實上,他看起來比實際年齡還要老十歲!我的目光直視著他,說道:“哦,我在城里,想著來看看你在西雅圖過得怎么樣。最近怎么樣?”
How have you been?" Peter responded that he was fine, but that he was also on the look out for a new cat. Looking over at the picture, I noticed that it was of a cat. "Yes, he sighed, I didn't really look after my first cat very well. It ran away." "I'm sorry to hear that", I said.
皮特回答說他很好,但他最近在找一只新的貓??粗@幅圖片,我注意到它畫的是一只貓。“是的”他嘆息道,“我沒有照顧好我養(yǎng)的第一只貓,它逃走了。”“聽到這些我很遺憾。”我說道。
We talked for a while and decided to go out for a coffee. We were at a Starbucks when a beautiful woman walked into the Cafe. Peter quickly looked the other way. "Who's she?", I asked. "Nobody, just someone who looks down their nose at me." Just then somebody shouted "Look out!" Peter jumped up and pushed the woman hard. At first, she looked daggers at him. Then, realizing what had happened, she noticed that because Peter had been looking lively, she hadn't slipped on a ice coffee drink that was all over the floor. I'm glad I looked Peter up, it certainly was an interesting day...
我們聊了一會兒,決定去喝杯咖啡。我們去了星巴克,這時一個女人走進店里。皮特很快將臉轉向一邊。“她是誰?”我問道。“沒什么,只是一個看不起我的人。”然后有人高聲叫了起來“小心!”皮特跳起來,用力將那女人推開。起初,她對他怒目而視。后來才意識到發(fā)生了什么,她注意到,由于皮特身手敏捷,她沒有將冰咖啡灑在地板上。我很高興找到了皮特,今天真是有趣的一天。
