新世纪走遍美国中英台词(2)

I answered a few 'want ads' but...no luck.

What about an employment agency? That's what I did.

I tried. But I don't have enough word-processing skills.

It's not easy to find a job. I was lucky to find mine.

Ugh, and in one place, a factory, this guy said he wanted an attractivewoman to work for him...and then he touched me...

No! Disgusting! That's sexual harassment! That happened to me too...I mean don't you feel like just slapping them?

I did...and then I lost my job.

Rebecca, there's a phone call for you.

For me? Who is it?

It's a man.

Hello?Who? Alberto! What a surprise.

So, how was the bus trip?

Uh, it was a long ride.

Listen, what are you doing tonight?

Tonight? Nothing special.

Let me show you the city.

Oh, I don't know, I still have so much to do at the house...

I won't take no for an answer...I'll be there in an hour.

Well?

I didn't know you were going to live in a boarding house.

Yeah, with all these people, isn't that a boarding house?

I guess it is anyway, it's good to see you again.

You look so different.

What, because I'm wearing a dress instead of jeans?

That and your hair, and...everything, I guess.

Well, I could change back into my Red Sox jacket.

No, no, no. You look terrific. You haven't eaten, have you?

No, not yet.

So, the bus ride was...

Ugh...Long...Very long.

Ha ha, I told you. Now remember, I did offer you a ride.

Oh...I do remember.

I should warn you. I hate to wait.

You see that building...I was part of a team of architects that designedit.

Really? That's very impressive.

Thank you. It was a challenge. We had to design it to with standearthquakes.

It must be a little nerve-racking to live with the threat of earthquakes.Yes and no. Most of the time you don't even think about it. But then thenext little tremor comes along and you think it's the big one.

Oh, great!

Don't worry...I promise...no earthquakes...tonight...So, are you readyfor your next San Francisco treat?

Mm-hm.

Yeah? OK.

This place is magnificent.

It's the Palace of Fine Arts.

It was built in 1915 as the centerpiece of the Panama-Pacific Exposition.I've never seen anything like this before.

Yeah. It's a fine example of neoclassical architecture...Oh, I've got asurprise for you. Listen. Hello! Hello!!!

Oh, listen to that echo. What a great place to record a song. Maybe I'llcome back here some day and record one of my own songs.

You know, I've never heard you sing. Would you sing for me?

You don't want me to sing here.

Yes, right here.

Well, I don't have my guitar...

Just...just a little song.
