chapter 5 David meets old friends again
第5章 大衛(wèi)重逢老朋友
I decided to go to London first，to stay at a hotel for a few nights，and see all the sights of that great city. I knew it would be very different from the last time I was in London，when I was working at the warehouse. Now I was adult，and educated，and had money.
我決定先到倫敦，在旅館里住上幾天，把那大城市的風光景致游覽個遍。我知道這一次與我上次到倫敦倉庫工作時的情景會大不一樣。如今我已長大成人，受過教育，身上有了錢。
The hotel I chose was called the Golden Cross，and because I looked so young，I was given a very small，dark room in the roof. But I did not feel confident enough to complain.
我選擇了一家取名“金十字”的旅館，由于我看上去很年輕，他們就給我開了一間閣樓上又小又黑的房間。而我當時還沒有足夠的勇氣抱怨。
That evening I was returning from the theatre when I recognized someone going into the hotel. I could notpreventmy selffromsaying at once，"Steerforth! Do you remember me？"
那天晚上，我從戲院回來，見一個熟悉的身影走進旅館。我禁不住脫口叫道：“斯提福茲！你還認識我嗎？”
He stared at me for a moment. Then he cried，"Good heavens! It's little Copperfield!"
他看了我一會兒，然后叫起來，“我的天！是小科波菲爾！”
I was so delighted to see him that I held both his hands，saying，"My dear Steerforth，you have no idea how pleased I am to see you again!"I remembered how much I had admired him，and all my love for him came back. I had to brush away the tears from my eyes.
見到他，我欣喜異常，我緊握住他的雙手說：“親愛的斯提福茲，你不會知道再次見到你我有多高興！”我記得我是多么地敬重他，我對他的敬慕又一次升華。我的雙眼涌滿淚花，我只好趕緊擦掉。
