公寓apartment[英][əˈpɑ:tmənt] [美][əˈpɑrtmənt] 中英文故事：对家人的爱（4） 在新奥尔良，许多古宅并不以这种方式恢复原貌——法国居民区的许多公寓和庄严的圣•查理大街两旁的宅邸现在仍然由该城一些老住户居住。步入光色暗淡的室内，你能从陈旧的典雅装潢中感受到古宅昔日富丽堂皇的气派。 相同式样的黄铜烛台和那些威尼斯衣橱柜被安置在无人打扫的房间里，屋内壁画已经剥落， 从来没有更换,木地板也残缺不全。古宅富有神秘气息，虽昔日风采不再，却愈发高贵典雅。对我来说，这些房间实在美得让人感动。 这种缺憾之美使我想起了我和现在家人的关系。 Many of the old homes in New Orleans are not restored in this way—many of the apartments in the French Quarter and the mansions along stately St. Charles Avenue are still home to some of the city’s established residents. Their opulence is only enhanced by the faded elegance found when one steps inside their shadowy interiors. The same brass candle cylinders and Venetian chifforobes are arranged in unswept rooms where wallpaper has been stripped and never replaced and where wooden floors remain unfin¬ished. The effect is an enigmatic blend of frayed glory and noble refinement. To me, the beauty of these rooms is achingly affecting. And this flawed beauty reminds me of my connections to the family I am visiting. 中英文例句 1. I had to sell the house and move to a small apartment. 我不得不卖了房子，搬到一个小公寓房里。 2. Albeit in a rented apartment. 即使是在一套租赁的公寓里。 3. What items in a guy's apartment tip you off that he's a bachelor? 在男人的房间里里是什么向你泄露了他们是单身汉呢？ 4. Does your apartment have a gym onsite? 你的公寓内有健身房吗？ 5. Or, if you enjoy pottery, showcase your creations in your apartment. 或者，要是你喜欢陶艺，就在房间里摆上你的作品。 |
