A Room with a View — Page 6

English → Korean Chapter I Level 6/10

I am lucky to be appointed to such a charming neighbourhood."

저는 이렇게 매력적인 동네에 부임하게 되어 운이 좋습니다."

"Oh, how glad I am!

"오, 정말 기뻐요!

The name of our house is Windy Corner."

우리 집 이름은 윈디 코너예요."

Mr. Beebe bowed.

비비 씨가 고개를 숙여 인사했다.

"There is mother and me generally, and my brother, though it's not often we get him to ch—— The church is rather far off, I mean."

"보통은 어머니와 저, 그리고 남동생이 있는데, 남동생이 교회에—— 교회가 좀 멀리 있거든요, 제 말은요."

"Lucy, dearest, let Mr. Beebe eat his dinner."

"루시, 얘야, 비비 씨가 저녁을 드실 수 있게 해드려라."

"I am eating it, thank you, and enjoying it."

"잘 먹고 있습니다, 감사합니다, 맛있게요."

He preferred to talk to Lucy, whose playing he remembered, rather than to Miss Bartlett, who probably remembered his sermons.

그는 아마도 자신의 설교를 기억하고 있을 바틀렛 양보다는, 연주가 기억에 남아 있는 루시와 이야기하는 것을 더 좋아했다.

He asked the girl whether she knew Florence well, and was informed at some length that she had never been there before.

그는 소녀에게 피렌체를 잘 아느냐고 물었고, 그녀가 전에 한 번도 가본 적이 없다는 말을 한참 동안 들었다.

It is delightful to advise a newcomer, and he was first in the field.

초행자에게 조언을 해주는 것은 즐거운 일이었고, 그는 누구보다 먼저 나섰다.

"Don't neglect the country round," his advice concluded.

"주변 시골도 놓치지 마세요," 라고 그의 조언은 마무리되었다.

"The first fine afternoon drive up to Fiesole, and round by Settignano, or something of that sort."

"날씨 좋은 첫 번째 오후에 피에솔레까지 드라이브하시고, 세티냐노를 돌아오시거나, 그런 식으로요."

"No!" cried a voice from the top of the table.

"아니에요!" 테이블 상석에서 누군가의 목소리가 외쳤다.

"Mr. Beebe, you are wrong.

"비비 씨, 그건 틀렸어요.

The first fine afternoon your ladies must go to Prato."

날씨 좋은 첫 번째 오후에 이 분들은 꼭 프라토에 가셔야 해요."

"That lady looks so clever," whispered Miss Bartlett to her cousin.

"저 분은 정말 박식해 보여," 바틀렛 양이 사촌에게 속삭였다.

"We are in luck."

"우리 운이 좋은걸."

And, indeed, a perfect torrent of information burst on them.

그리고 과연, 완벽한 정보의 홍수가 그들에게 쏟아졌다.

People told them what to see, when to see it, how to stop the electric trams, how to get rid of the beggars, how much to give for a vellum blotter, how much the place would grow upon them.

사람들은 무엇을 볼지, 언제 볼지, 전차를 어떻게 세우는지, 거지들을 어떻게 떨쳐내는지, 양피지 흡묵지에 얼마를 줘야 하는지, 이 도시가 얼마나 마음에 들게 될지를 그들에게 알려주었다.
