旁白:1903年的夏天.一对年老又富有的兄弟,罗德里克和奥利弗,打了一个赌.奥利弗认为,一个人靠一张百万英镑的钞票在伦敦能活一个月.他的兄弟罗德里克对此表示怀疑.这时,他们看见一个身无分文的年轻人在房子外面的人行道上游荡.他叫亨利.亚当斯,一个美国商人,在伦敦迷了路,不知道该怎么办.


RODERICK: Young man, would you step inside a moment, please?

罗德里克:年轻人,请进来一会儿,好吗?
HENRY: Who? Me, sir?
亨 利:先生,你叫谁来呀?是叫我吗?
RODERICK: Yes, you.

SERVANT: Good morning, sir. Would you please come in? Permit me to lead the way,sir

OLIVER: Come and sit down, Mr Adams

HENRY: Thank you.
亨 利:谢谢.
RODERICK: You're an American? 
罗德里克:你是美国人?
HENRY: That's right, from San Francisco.
亨 利:是的,从旧金山来.
RODERICK: How well do you know London?
罗德里克:你对伦敦熟悉吗?
HENRY: Not at all, it's my first trip here.
亨 利:一点儿也不熟,这是我第一次来伦敦.
RODERICK: I wonder, Mr Adams, if you'd mind us asking a few questions.
罗德里克:亚当斯先生,不知你是否介意我们问几个问题?
HENRY: Not at all. Go right ahead.
亨 利:不介意,请问吧.
RODERICK: May we ask what you're doing in this country and what your plans are?
罗德里克:可不可以问问,你在这个国家干点儿什么?你的计划又是什么呢?
HENRY: Well, I can't say that I have any plans. I'm hoping to find work.As a matter of fact, I landed in Britain by accident. 
亨 利:嗯,谈不上有什么计划,我希望能找到工作.事实上,我在英国上岸是偶然的.
OLIVER: How is that possible? 
奥利弗:这怎么可能呢?
HENRY: Well, you see, back home I had my own boat.About a month ago, I was sailing out of the bay ...(his eyes stare at what is left of the brother's dinner on table)
亨 利:嗯,你看,在美国的时候,我有我自己的船.大约一个月前,我开船驶出海湾……(他的眼睛盯着兄弟俩留在餐桌上的残羹剩菜上).
OLIVER: Well, go on.
罗德里克:往下说呀.
HENRY: Oh, yes. Well, towards nightfall I found myself carried out to sea by a strong wind.It was all my fault. I didn't know whether I could survive until morning.The next morning I'd just about given myself up for lost when I was spotted by a ship.
亨 利:哦,好的.嗯,傍晚时分我发现我被一阵大风刮到海上去了.这都是我的错.我不知道是否能活到早晨.第二天早上,我正感到绝望的时候,一艘海船发现了我.
OLIVER: And it was the ship that brought you to England.
罗德里克:正是那艘船把你带到了英国.
HENRY: Yes. The fact is that I earned my passage by working as an unpaid hand,which accounts for my appearance.I went to the American embassy to seek help, but ...(The brothers smile at each other.)
亨 利:是的.事实上我靠做义工来顶替船费.这就是我为什么衣冠不整的原因了.我上美国大使馆求助,但是……(兄弟俩相顾而笑).
RODERICK: Well, you mustn't worry about that. It's an advantage.
罗德里克:嗯,这一点你倒不必担心,这还是优点呢.
HENRY: I'm afraid I don't quite follow you, sir.
亨 利:对不起,先生,你的话我没有听懂.
RODERICK: Tell us, Mr Adams, what sort of work did you do in America?
奥利弗:亚当斯先生,请你告诉我们,你在美国干哪个行当?
HENRY: I worked for a mining company.Could you offer me some kind of work here?
亨 利:我在一家矿业公司工作.你们能不能给我提供一份工作呢?
RODERICK: Patience, Mr Adams.
If you don't mind, may I ask you how much money you have?
罗德里克:耐心点儿,亚当斯先生,如果你不介意,我能不能问问,你手头儿有多少钱?
HENRY: Well, to be honest, I have none.
亨 利:嗯,老实说,我一分钱都没有了.
OLIVER: (happily) What luck! Brother, what luck! (claps his hands together) 
奥利弗:(高兴地)老兄,真走运!真有运气!(鼓起掌来)
HENRY: Well, it may seem lucky to you but not to me!On the contrary, in fact. If this is your idea of some kind of joke, I don't think it's very funny.(Henry stands up to leave) Now if you'll excuse me, I think I'll be on my way.
亨 利:嗯,这对你们来说可能是运气,但对我来说可不是.事实上,正好相反.如果你们认为这是一个笑话,我可不觉得很好笑.(亨利起身准备走)好了,请原谅,我想我该上路了.
RODERICK: Please don't go, Mr Adams.You mustn't think we don't care about you. Oliver, give him the letter.
罗德里克:亚当斯先生,请别走.你千万不要以为我们不在意你的感受.奥利弗,把信给他.
OLIVER: Yes, the letter. (gets it from a desk and gives it to Henry like a gift) The letter
奥利弗:是,那封信.(从桌上把信拿起来,像送礼品一样递给亨利)给你信.
HENRY: (taking it carefully) For me?
亨 利:(小心翼翼地接过信)是给我吗?
RODERICK: For you. (Henry starts to open it) Oh, no, you mustn't open it.Not yet. You can't open it until two o'clock.
罗德里克:是给你的.(亨利要拆信)啊,别拆,你不要拆,现在不是时候,到两点钟你才能打开.
HENRY: Oh, this is silly
亨 利:噢,这真可笑.
RODERICK: Not silly. There's money in it. (calls to the servant) James?
罗德里克:这不可笑,这里边有钱呢.(叫仆人)詹姆斯?
HENRY: Oh, no. I don't want your charity. I just want an honest job.
亨 利:噢,不,我不需要你们的施舍,我只要一份老老实实的工作.
.RODERICK: We know you're hard-working.That's why we've given you the letter. James, show Mr Adams out.
