雙語小說閱讀:《誰動了我的奶酪》(14)
With the Cheese and enjoy it! The end… or is it a new beginning?
......隨着奶酪的變化而變化，並享受變化！結局……或者是新的開始？A Discussion: Later That Same Day
討 論:同一天傍晚，故事講完以後的討論When Michael finished telling the story, he looked around the room and saw his former classmates smiling at him. Several thanked him and said they got a good deal out of the story.
邁克爾講完他的故事以後，環顧四周，發現他的老同學們都在微笑着傾聽，有幾個人站起身來向他表示感謝，說他們從故事中得到了很多啓發。
Nathan asked the group, "What would you think of getting together later and maybe discussing it?"
內森問大家："一會兒我們聚在一起討論一下這個故事，你們覺得怎樣？"Most of them said they would like to talk about it, and so they arranged to meet later for a drink before dinner.
大多數人都表示他們的確很想談一談自己的感受。於是，他們決定先去喝點東西，再吃晚餐，然後一起討論一下這個故事。That evening, as they gathered in a hotel lounge, they began to kid each other about finding their "Cheese" and seeing themselves in the Angela good-naturedly asked the group, "So, who were you in the story? Sniff, Scurry, Hem or Haw?"
當天晚上，他們聚集在飯店的房間裏，相互開着玩笑說，看見他們自己在迷宮中尋找各自的"奶酪"。安傑拉要大家安靜下來，並詢問道："你們覺得自己是這故事中的誰？嗅嗅和匆匆，還是哼哼或唧唧？"Carlos answered, "Well I was thinking about that this afternoon. I clearly remember a time before I had my sporting goods business, when I had a rough encounter with change.
卡洛斯第一個回答說："呃，整個下午，我都在考慮這個問題。我清楚地記得，有一段時間，在我開始我的運動器材生意之前，我曾遇到過一次突如其來的改變。""I wasn't Sniff-I didn't sniff out the situation and see the change early. And I certainly wasn't Scurry -- I didn't go into action immediately.
"我不是嗅嗅——我沒能及早嗅出潛在的危機並看出已經發生的變化。我也不像匆匆——因爲我沒有立即投入行動。""I was more like Hem, who wanted to stay in familiar territory. The truth is, I didn't want to deal with change. I didn't even want to see it."
"我想我更像是哼哼，當時我只願意呆在自己熟悉的領域。事實上，我根本不想去應付對改變，我甚至不想看到變化。"Michael, who felt like no time had passed since he and Carlos were close friends in school, asked, "What are you talking about, Carlos?"
邁克爾和卡洛斯在學校時是好朋友，現在還是像從前一樣親密，他不解地問道："兄弟，你所說的那個突然的改變究竟是怎麼回事？"Carlos said, "An unexpected change of jobs."
卡洛斯說："那是工作上的一個意想不到的變化。"Michael laughed. "You were fired?"
邁克爾笑起來："你被開除了？"
