新概念英語青少版2a課文Unit 15 Lesson 29： It's a mystery to me 這對(duì)我來說真是個(gè)迷
DAISY: Welcome home, Jack! Did you have a good trip?
歡迎回來，杰克，你的旅行愉快嗎？
JACK: It was OK. But it was all about babies and food!
還行，不過總是在談孩子和食物。
DAISY: Babies? How many babies?
孩子？多少個(gè)孩子？
JACK: Two. Marcel's deputy had a baby two months age. And Pierres's secretary is going to have a baby in June. They have nine months off work each time!
兩個(gè)，馬塞爾的助手有個(gè)兩個(gè)月大的孩子，皮埃爾的秘書6月就要生寶寶了，他們每次有9個(gè)月產(chǎn)假。
DAISY: Well, it happens. That's life.
嗯，是這樣，這就是生活
JACK: True. And then there's the food. I had lunch with Marcel. I didn't want a three-hour lunch, but lunch is a serious business in Paris.
嗯，然后就是食物，我跟馬塞爾吃了頓午飯，我根本不想花三個(gè)小時(shí)吃頓飯，但是在巴黎，午飯是件非常重要的事情。
DAISY: Yes, it is. I like the French attitude to food. It's very civilised.
是的，我喜歡法國(guó)人對(duì)待飲食的態(tài)度，非常優(yōu)雅。
JACK: I agree you, Daisy. They're nice people. They're also very efficient. But how do they do it? How do they have time for a civilised life and for work as well? It's a mystery to me!
我同意，黛絲，他們?nèi)硕己芎?，也很有效率，但是他們是怎么做到的，他們?cè)趺磿?huì)有那么多時(shí)間過優(yōu)雅的生活，還把工作做好呢？這對(duì)我來說真是個(gè)迷。
