Mary：

Has Alan shown up yet?

艾倫露面了嗎?

Tony：

No, not yet. I guess something came up?He’ll call soon enough to let us know what’s going on. He’s good that way.

沒有，還沒露面。我猜肯定發(fā)生什么事了。他應該會打電話告訴我們的。要是那樣就好了。

Mary：

I wonder what it could be.

我在想會是什么事。

Tony：

I don’t know. I hope it’s nothing serious.

我也不知道。希望不是什么嚴重的事情。

Mary：

Last week his sister was admitted to the hospital.

上星期他姐姐住院了。

Tony：

What happened?

怎么回事啊?

Mary：

She was in a serious car accident. She was hurt pretty badly. They thought she was going to die.

他姐姐出了車禍，傷得很嚴重。他們都覺得她快不行了。

Tony：

How is she now?

那她現(xiàn)在怎么樣?

Mary：

She fell into a coma?... The doctors aren’t too hopeful. But I hope they’re wrong.

她已經(jīng)昏迷了。醫(yī)生覺得沒有太大希望了。不過我希望他們的判斷是錯的。

Tony：

Poor? Alan. He’s going nuts. His sister is all he has left; his parents died last year.

可憐的艾倫。他都快要發(fā)瘋了。他姐姐可是他惟一的親人了，他父母去年剛去世。

Mary：

Yes, he has been through a lot in the last year. I hope his luck changes soon. Maybe his sister will pull through?.

是啊，他去年經(jīng)歷得太多了。我希望他能時來運轉。也許他姐姐能挺過來呢。
