CHAPTER 1

 It is a truth universally acknowledged,that a single man in possession of a good fortune,must be in want of a wife.
一个有钱的单身汉一定想娶一个妻子，这是世界公认的真理

universally; acknowledge; possession; fortune; in want of; 

 However little known the feelings or views of such a man may be on his first entering a neighbourhood, this truth is so well fixed in the minds of the surrounding families, that he is considered as the rightful property of some one or other of their daughters.
当他第一次加入一个社区，无论这样的一个男人的性情或见解如何，这个真理在周围人家的的思想里根深蒂固了，他被视为他某个女儿的财产一样

neighbourhood; fix in; rightful; property; 

  "My dear Mr.Bennet,"said his lady to him one day," have you heard that Netherfield Park is let at last ?"
一天他的夫人对他说：“我亲爱的Bennet先生，你有知道 Netherfield 公园被最后被租出去了吗？”
 Mr.Bennet replied that he had not.
Bennet先生回答说没有
 "But it is,"returned she;"for Mrs.Long has just been here,and she told me all about it."
“的确租出去了”她说;"Long 太太刚刚来过这事的详情一五一十的告诉我了"
 Mr.Bennet made no answer.
Bennet 先生没有回应
 "Do not you want to know who has taken it?" cried his wife impatiently.
“你不想知道是谁租的它吗？”他的夫人不耐的嚷道
 "You want to tell me, and I have no objection to hearing it."
我可以听听，你想告诉我的话

objection ;

 This was invitation enough.
有这句话就够了
 "Why,my dear,you must know, Mrs.Long says that Netherfield is taken by a young man of large fortune from the north of England; that he came down on Monday in a chaise and four to see the place,and was so much delighted with it that he agreed with Mr.Morris immediately; that he is to take possession before Michaelmas, and some of his servants are to be in the house by the end of next week."
“亲爱的，你得知道,Long 太太说租Netherfied的是一个英格兰北部的阔少；那天他乘着四轮马车来这看看，并且很中意它，当场就和 Morris 先生签约了，他要在‘米迦勒节’以前搬进来，打算下个周未先叫几个佣人来住。”
