The Phantom of the Opera by Jennifer Basset

原文

Chapter 10: Madame Gigy visits the Persian

For weeks, all Paris talked about that night at the Opera.

Everybody asked questions, but nobody knew the answers.

Where was Christine Daae? Where was the Vicome de Chagny?

Were they alive, or dead? And the Phantom of the Opera …?

Some weeks after that famous night, Madame Giry went out one afternoon to a small house near the Rivoli gardens.

She went in and up the stairs to some rooms at the top of the house.

The Persian open the door.

Madam, God looked at him.

"My friend, you know the answers. Please tell me. Are they alive or dead?"

"Come in,"the Persian said quietly.

They sat down on some chairs by the window, and looked out across the Rivoli gardens.

"Yes," the Persian said slowly, "The Phantom is dead now. He did not want to live any longer. I saw his body three days ago, and because of that, I can talk to you about him. He cannot kill me now."

"So the Phantom was really a man? " Madame Giry asked.

"Yes, his name was Erik. That was not his real name, of course. He was born in France, but I knew him in Persia. He was a famous builder and I worked with him there. For a time I was his friend, but not for long. When he came to Paris, I came after him – I wanted to watch him. He was a very clever, very dangerous man. He could be in two, or three, places at the same time. He could be in one place, and his voice could come from another place. He could do many clever things with ropes and mirrors, and secret doors. You see, he helped to build the Opera House. He built secret passages underground, and his secret house on the lake. He could not live in the outside world, because of his terrible, ugly face. Unhappy Erik! We can feel sorry for him,Madame Giry. He was so clever... and so ugly.People screamed when they saw his face.  And so he lived this strange life - Half man – Half phantom. But he was a man, in the end.  He wanted a woman's love. He stopped.

And Madame Giry asked quietly, "And Christine Daae and VicomteRaoul? What happened to them?"

The Persian smiled."Ah yes! What happened to young Raoul and the beautiful Christine...? Who knows."

Nobody in Paris ever saw Raoul and Christine again.

Perhaps they took a train to the north, and lived a quiet happy life together there.

Perhaps Christine's wonderful voice is still singing, somewhere in the cold and beautiful mountains of Norway.

Who knows.

第十章:吉丽夫人拜访波斯人

几个星期以来，整个巴黎都在谈论歌剧院的那个晚上。
每个人都问问题，但没有人知道答案。
克丽斯廷·达埃在哪儿?夏尼伯爵在哪里?
他们是活着还是死了?那歌剧魅影呢?
那个著名的夜晚过后几个星期，一天下午，吉丽夫人到里沃利花园附近的一所小房子里去。
她走了进去，上了楼梯，来到房子顶层的几个房间。
波斯人打开了门。
夫人，上帝看着他。
“我的朋友，你知道答案。请告诉我。他们是死是活?”
“请进。”波斯人平静地说。
他们在窗边的几张椅子上坐了下来，望着窗外的里沃利花园。
“是的，”波斯人慢慢地说，“幽灵现在已经死了。他不想再活了。三天前我看到了他的尸体，正因为如此，我才可以跟你谈谈他。他现在杀不了我了。”
“这么说幻影真的是个人?”吉丽夫人问。
“是的，他的名字叫埃里克。当然，这不是他的真名。他出生在法国，但我在波斯认识他。他是一位著名的建筑师，我在那里和他一起工作。有一段时间我是他的朋友，但并不长久。他来巴黎时，我跟着他——我想监视他。他是一个非常聪明，非常危险的人。他可能同时出现在两个或三个地方。他可能在一个地方，而他的声音可能来自另一个地方。他可以用绳子、镜子和暗门做很多聪明的事情。你知道，他帮助建造了歌剧院。他在地下建造了秘密通道，在湖上建造了他的秘密房子。他不能生活在外面的世界，因为他可怕的，丑陋的脸。不幸的埃里克!我们为他感到难过，吉丽夫人。他太聪明了……而且很丑。人们一看到他的脸就尖叫起来。于是他过着这种奇怪的生活——半人半鬼。但他终究是个男人。他想要女人的爱。他停止了。”
吉丽夫人平静地问道:“克丽斯廷·达埃和拉乌尔子爵呢?他们后来怎么样了?”
波斯人笑了。“哦,是的!年轻的拉乌尔和美丽的克里斯汀发生了什么事?谁知道。”
巴黎再也没有人见过拉乌尔和克里斯汀。
也许他们乘火车去了北方，在那里过着平静幸福的生活。
也许克里斯汀美妙的声音还在歌唱，在挪威寒冷而美丽的山区的某个地方。
谁知道呢。

We're having a debate on advertising Thursday evening, and I have to take part.

我们星期四晚上要进行广告辩论，我必须参加。

That's interesting. I should like to hear what people think about advertising.

这很有趣。我想听听人们对广告的看法。

What's there to say? We must have advertising, mustn't we?

我们一定要做广告，是吗?

Why?

为什么？

Well,we wouldn't know what there was to buy if we didn't have advertisements.

如果没有广告，我们就不知道要买什么。

Yes,that's true, up to a point. Advertisements provide information that we need. If someone has produced a new article, naturally the seller wants to tell us about it.

然而，在某种程度上，这是事实。广告提供我们需要的信息。如果有人生产了一个新物品，卖家自然会告诉我们。

Yes,and the advertisements tell us which product is the best.

是的，广告告诉我们哪个产品是最好的。

Do they? I don't think so. Every manufacturer says that his product is the best,or at least tries to give the impression. Only one can be the best, so the others are misleading, aren't they?

他们吗？我不这么想。每个制造商都说他的产品是最好的，或者至少是想给人留下好印象。只有一个是最好的，所以其他的都是误导，不是吗？

嗯，在某种程度上，我想，但我们不一定要相信他们，不是吗?

Is it? I think not. The cost of advertising is added to the price of the article.

是吗？我认为不是。广告费用是加在商品价格上的。

You and I and all the other people who buy the article pay for the advertising.

你和我以及所有其他购买这个物品的人都要为广告付费。

Well,I suppose we get something for our money-some information.

好吧，我想我们的钱可以得到——一些信息。

Yes, but don't forget it's often misleading information, and sometimes harmful.

是的，但是不要忘记它经常是误导信息，有时是有害的。

Harmful?

有害的？

What about advertisements designed to persuade young people to smoke cigarettes? Wouldn't you say they're harmful?

说服年轻人吸烟而设计的广告怎么样？它们不是有害的吗？

You've given me a lot to think about. I'm quite looking forward to the debate now!

是的。我们起床很早。我们6点叫醒你，8点吃早餐;正午吃午餐;下午三点半有茶，六点钟吃晚餐。

Oh,that's very different from what I've been used to. You'd better tell me therest of the rules here.

哦，这和我以前的习惯很不一样。你最好告诉我这里的其他规则。

Yes.Well, you can see the no smoking sign. We don't allow smoking in the wards, and the same goes for alcohol. However, if you do need to smoke, there are special lounges.

是的。嗯，你可以看到禁止吸烟的标志。我们不允许在病房吸烟，也不允许喝酒。然而，如果你确实需要吸烟，有专门的休息室。

Chapter 9: The house on the lake

When the lights cameo n, Raoul ran.

He ran downstairs and along passages, through the Opera House to the back of the stage.

In the passage outside Christine's dressing room, a hand took his arm.

"What's the matter, my young friend? Where are you running to, so quickly?"

Raoul turned and saw the long face of the Persian under his black hat.

"Christine",Raoul said quickly, "Erik's got her. Where is she? Help me! How do I get to his house on the lake?"

"Come with me," said the Persian.

 They went quickly into Christine's dressing room.

The Persian closed the door and went to the big mirror on one wall.

"There's only one door into this room." Raoul began.

"Wait,"the Persian said, he put his hands on the big mirror, first here, then there.

For a minute,nothing happened.

Then the mirror began to move and turn, and a big dark hole opened in it.

Raoul stared.

"Quick! Come with me, but be careful," the Persian said. "I know Erik. I understand his secrets. Put your right hand up near your head, like this, and keep it there all the time."

"But why?"Raoul asked.

"Remember Joseph Buquet, and the rope around his neck? Erik is a clever man with ropes in the dark."

They went down,down, down under the Opera House.

They went through secret doors in the floors, then along passages and down dark stairs.

The Persian listened carefully all the time for strange noises.

"When do we get to the lake? " Raoul whispered.

"We're not going by the lake. Erik watches it all the time. No, we go around the lake and get into Erik's house from the back. I know some secret doors."

Soon. They were there.

In the dark. The Persian felt the wall carefully with his hands.

"Ah, here it is," He whispered.

The wall moved under his hands and a small door opened.

Very quietly, they went through, and then the door closed behind them.

They could not get out.

Inside the room it was very dark.

They waited and listened.

The Persian put his hands on the wall.

"Or no,"he whispered. "It was the wrong door! This is Erik's torture room- the room of mirrors! We are dead men, Vicomte de Chagny, dead men!"

At first, Raoul did not understand.

But he soon learned.The lights came on, and they heard a man's laugh.

Eric knew they were there.

The room was all mirrors - walls, floor, ceiling.

There were pictures in the mirrors of trees and flowers and rivers.

The pictures moved and danced in front of their eyes.

And the room was hot.It got hotter and hotter and hotter.

Raoul was thirsty,hot and thirsty, and the rivers in the pictures danced and laughed at him.

He closed his eyes,but the rivers still danced.

Water, he needed water, but the mirrors laughed at him.

Soon, he could not move or speak, or open his eyes.

He was not thirsty now, just tired, so tired.

"Oh, Christine,I'm sorry" He thought. "I wanted to help you, and now I'm dying..."

Through a mirror in the wall, Christine watched her lover in the torture room.

Behind her Erik stood,with his hands on her arms.

"He's dying, Christine,dying. Watch him carefully. No, don't close your eyes. Watch him! "

Christine could not speak.

She wanted to scream,but no words came.

Then she found her voice again.

"How can you do this, Erik? Why don't you kill me?"

"Because I love you, Christine. Marry me, be my wife and love me. Then Raoul and the Persian can live"

Slowly, Christine turned. She looked into Erik's terrible ugly face, and spoke again. Very quietly.

"Yes, Erik.From this minute. I am your wife."

She put her arms around Erik's neck and kissed him - kissed him slowly and lovingly on his ugly mouth.

Then she took her arms away and said slowly, "Poor, unhappy Erik."

Erik stared at her.

"You kissed me." He whispered. "I didn't ask you but you kissed me- freely? Oh Christine, my Angel. That was my first kiss from a woman. Even my mother never kissed me! She gave me my first mask when I was two years old. She turned her face away from me every time I came near her.

Erik put his ugly face in his hands and cried.

Then he went down on the floor at Christine's feet.

"You are free,Christine free! Go away and marry your Raoul and be happy. But remember Erik,sometimes. Go now, quickly. Take Raoul and the Persian and go!"

第九章:湖上的房子

灯一亮，拉乌尔就跑起来了。
他跑下楼，沿着走廊，穿过歌剧院，来到舞台后面。
在克里斯汀化妆室外面的通道里，一只手抓住了他的胳膊。
“怎么了，我年轻的朋友?”你跑得这么快，要去哪儿?”
拉乌尔转过身来，看到了黑帽子下波斯人的长脸。
“克里斯汀，”拉乌尔赶紧说，“埃里克抓住她了。她在哪里?帮帮我!我怎么去他在湖边的家?”
“跟我来。”波斯人说。
他们迅速走进克里斯汀的化妆室。
波斯人关上门，走到一面墙上的大镜子前。
“这个房间只有一扇门。”拉乌尔的开始。
“等等，”波斯人说，他把手放在大镜子上，先是这里，然后是那里。
有那么一分钟，什么也没发生。
然后镜子开始移动和转动，一个大黑洞在里面打开了。
拉乌尔盯着。
“快!跟我来，但要小心。”波斯人说。“我了解埃里克。我了解他的秘密。把你的右手举到靠近头的地方，像这样，一直保持在那里。”
“但为什么?”拉乌尔问道。
“还记得约瑟夫·比凯和他脖子上的绳子吗?”埃里克是个聪明人，在黑暗中会用绳子。”
他们往下，往下，往下，往下到歌剧院下面。
他们穿过楼层的暗门，然后沿着走廊走下黑暗的楼梯。
波斯人一直仔细地听着奇怪的声音。
“我们什么时候到湖边?”拉乌尔低声说。
“我们不从湖边走。埃里克一直在看。不，我们绕着湖从后面进入埃里克的房子。我知道一些秘密的门。”
很快。他们就在那里。
在黑暗中。波斯人用手仔细地摸着墙。
“啊，在这儿。”他低声说。
墙在他的手下移动，一扇小门打开了。
他们非常安静地走了进去，然后门在他们身后关上了。
他们出不去了。
房间里很黑。
他们等着，听着。
波斯人把手放在墙上。
“或者没有，”他低声说。“走错门了!”这是艾瑞克的刑讯室，满是镜子的房间!我们是死人，沙尼子爵，死人!”
起初，拉乌尔不明白。
但他很快就学会了。灯光亮了，他们听到了一个男人的笑声。
埃里克知道他们在那里。
房间里全是镜子——墙壁、地板、天花板。
镜子里有树、花和河流的图画。
这些图画在他们眼前舞动着。
房间里很热。天气越来越热，越来越热。
拉乌尔渴了，又热又渴，画中的河流在嘲笑他跳舞。
他闭上眼睛，但河水仍在跳舞。
水，他需要水，但镜子嘲笑他。
很快，他不能动弹，不能说话，也不能睁开眼睛。
他现在不渴了，只是累了，太累了。
“哦，克里斯汀，对不起。”他想。“我想帮你，可现在我快死了……”
透过墙上的一面镜子，克里斯汀看着她在刑讯室里的情人。
埃里克站在她身后，双手放在她的胳膊上。
“他快死了，克里斯汀，快死了。仔细观察他。不，不要闭上眼睛。看好他!”
克里斯汀说不出话来。
她想尖叫，但说不出话来。
然后她又能说话了。
“你怎么能这么做，埃里克?你为什么不杀了我?”
“因为我爱你，克里斯汀。嫁给我，做我的妻子，爱我。这样拉乌尔和波斯人就能活下去了。”
克里斯汀慢慢地转过身来。她看着埃里克可怕丑陋的脸，又说话了。非常小声的说。
“是的,埃里克。从现在开始。我是你的妻子。”
她伸出双臂搂住埃里克的脖子，吻了他——慢慢地、充满爱意地吻着他那丑陋的嘴巴。
然后她把胳膊挪开，慢慢地说:“可怜的、不幸的埃里克。”
埃里克盯着她。
“你吻了我。”他小声说。“我没有问你，但是你吻了我——自由地?哦，克里斯汀，我的天使。那是我第一次被女人吻。连我妈都没亲过我!我两岁的时候，她给了我第一个面具。每次我走近她，她都把脸转过去不理睬我。”
埃里克把他丑陋的脸捂在手里哭了起来。
然后他倒在克里斯汀脚边的地板上。
“你自由了，克丽斯廷自由了! 去嫁给你的拉乌尔，过得幸福。但记住埃里克，有时候。快去吧。带上拉乌尔和波斯人走吧!”

The Phantom of the Opera by Jennifer Basset

原文

Chapter 8: Where is Christine Daae?

On Saturday morning,Comte Phillipe looked across the breakfast table at his brother.

"Don't do it,Raoul, please. All this talk about ghosts and phantoms. I think the girl is mad."

"She's not mad,and I'm going to marry her." Raoul said.

"She's only a little opera singer" Phillipe said unhappily. "And she's very young. Are you still going to love her in ten or twenty years time?

Raoul drank his coffee and did not answer.

There were two more unhappy faces in the Opera House, too.

The directors now understood about O.G.

They didn't want anymore accidents.

"It's a lot of money," Mr. Firmin said unhappily.

He thought for a minute.

"What about some flowers in Box 5? Madam Giry says that O.G likes flowers."

"O.G. can bring his own flowers!" shouted Mr. Armand.

The evening began well.

The chandelier was now back in place, with new ropes.

All Paris was in the Opera House.

Everybody wanted to hear Christine Daae's voice again.

People also knew about the love story between Christine Daae and the Vicomte de Chagny.

There are no love secrets in Paris!

People watched the Comte and the Vicomte Box 14 with interest.

Young men from families like de Chagny do not marry opera singers.

When Christine came onto the stage, her face was white, and she looked afraid.

But she sang like an angel.

Ah, what a voice!All Paris was in love with Christine Daae.

She began to sing the famous love song.

Suddenly, every light in the Opera House went out.

For a second, nobody moved or spoke.

Then a woman screamed, and all the lights came on again.

But Christine Daae was no longer on the stage!

She was not behind the stage. She was not under the stage.

Nobody could find her.

The Opera House went mad.

Everybody around here and there, shouted and called.

In the director's office, people ran in and out.

The police came and asked questions.

But nobody could answer the questions.

Mr. Armand got angry and shouted, and Mr. Firmin told him to be quiet.

Then, Madame Giry arrived in the office with her daughter, Meg.

"Go away,woman! " Mr. Armand shouted.

"Monsieur,there are three people missing now!" Madame Giry said. "Meg, tell the directors your story."

This was Meg story.

"When the lights went out, we were just behind the stage. We heard a scream - I think it was Christine Daae's voice. Then the lights came back on, but Christine wasn't there! We were very afraid, and we began to run back to our dressing room. There were people running everywhere. Then we saw the Vicomte de Chagny. His face was red, and he was very angry. "Where's Christine? Where's Christine?"He shouted. Suddenly, the Persian came up behind him and took his arm. He said something to the Vicomte and they went into Christine Daae's dressing room.…."

"Yes? And then?" Mr. Firmin said quickly. "What happened next?"

"Nobody knows!" Meg's face was white. "We looked into Christine Daae's dressing room, but ... but that...was nobody there!"

第八章:克丽斯廷·达埃在哪里?

星期六早晨，菲利普伯爵隔着早餐桌望着他的哥哥。
“别这样，拉乌尔，求你了。一直在说鬼魂和幽灵。我想这女孩疯了。”
“她没疯，我要娶她。”拉乌尔说。
“她只是个小歌剧演员。”菲利普不高兴地说。“她还很年轻。十年二十年后你还会爱她吗?
拉乌尔喝了咖啡，没有回答。
歌剧院里还有两张不高兴的脸。
董事们现在理解了O.G.
他们不想再发生意外。
“这是一大笔钱，”菲尔曼先生不高兴地说。
他想了一会儿。
“在5号盒子里放些花怎么样?”吉丽夫人说O.G.喜欢花。”
“O.G.可以带他自己的花来!”阿尔芒先生喊道。
这个晚上开始得很顺利。
枝形吊灯现在用新绳子放回了原位。
整个巴黎都聚集在歌剧院。
每个人都想再听到克丽斯廷·达埃的声音。
人们也知道克里斯汀·达埃和沙尼子爵之间的爱情故事。
巴黎没有爱情的秘密!
人们饶有兴趣地看着伯爵和子爵包厢。
像德·沙尼这样家庭出身的年轻人不会和歌剧演唱家结婚。
当克里斯汀走上舞台时，她脸色苍白，看上去很害怕。
但她唱得像个天使。
啊，多么美妙的声音!整个巴黎都爱上了克丽斯廷·达埃。
她开始唱那首著名的情歌。
突然，歌剧院里所有的灯都熄灭了。
一时间，没有人动，也没有人说话。
然后一个女人尖叫起来，所有的灯又亮了。
但是克丽斯廷·达埃已经不在舞台上了!
她不在舞台后面。她不在舞台下面。
没人能找到她。
歌剧院都疯了。
周围的每个人都喊着。
在主任办公室里，人们进进出出。
警察来问了些问题。
但是没有人能回答这些问题。
阿尔芒先生生气了，大喊大叫，菲尔曼先生叫他安静。
接着，吉丽夫人带着她的女儿麦格来到了办公室。
“走开，女人!”阿尔芒先生喊道。
“先生，现在有三个人失踪了!”吉丽夫人说。“梅格，把你的故事告诉主管们。”
这就是梅格的故事。
“当灯光熄灭时，我们就在舞台后面。我们听到一声尖叫——我想那是克丽斯廷·达埃的声音。然后灯又亮了，但是克丽丝汀不在那儿!我们非常害怕，开始跑回更衣室。到处都有人在跑。他们看见了沙尼子爵。他的脸涨得通红，非常生气。“克里斯汀在哪里?克里斯汀在哪里?”他喊道。突然，波斯人走到他身后，抓住他的胳膊。他对子爵说了些什么，他们就走进了克丽斯廷·达埃的化妆室.....”
“是吗?然后呢?”菲尔曼先生很快地说。“接下来发生了什么?”
“没人知道!”麦格的脸变白了。“我们查看了克丽斯廷·达埃的化妆间，但是……但这…那里一个人也没有!”
