CHAPTER I第一章
SCARLETT O’HARA was not beautiful, but men seldom realized it when caught by her charm as the Tarleton twins were.
思嘉·奧哈拉長得并不漂亮，但是男人們像塔爾頓家那對孿生兄弟為她的魅力所迷住時，就不會這樣想了。
In her face were too sharply blended the delicate features of her mother, a Coast aristocrat of French descent, and the heavy ones of her florid Irish father.But it was an arresting face, pointed of chin, square of jaw. Her eyes were pale green without a touch of hazel, starred with bristly black lashes and slightly tilted at the ends.
她臉上有著兩種特征，一種是她母親的嬌柔，來自法蘭西血統的海濱貴族；一種是她父親的粗獷，來自浮華俗氣的愛爾蘭人，這兩種特征混在一起顯得不太協調，但這張臉上尖尖的下巴和四方的牙床骨，是很引人注意的，她那雙淡綠色的眼睛純凈得沒有一絲褐色，配上烏黑的睫毛和翹起的眼角，顯得韻味十足。
Above them, her thick black brows slanted upward, cutting a startling oblique line in her magnolia-white skin—that skin so prized by Southern women and so carefully guarded with bonnets, veils and mittens against hot Georgia suns.
上面是兩條墨黑的濃眉斜在那里，給她木蘭花般白皙的肌膚劃上十分分明的斜線，這樣白皙的皮膚對南方婦女是極其珍貴的。她們常常用帽子、面紗和手套把皮膚保護起來，以防受到佐治亞炎熱太陽的暴曬。
