Eztalk美语【262】This all seems so surreal 这一点都不像是真的

Yi-jun is looking in the paper

Yi-jun: I don't know what to say. This can't be happening. Here's the obituary.

Holly: It's really there? This all seems so surreal-like it's all one big nightmare.

Yi-jun: But it explains why Taylor isn't answering and Femi took time off from work.

Holly: Poor Femi. Taylor's death must have made her realize that she still cared for him.

Yi-jun: This says the viewing is at Myers Funeral Home today until five.

Holly: It's already half past four. We should go and pay our respects. Taylor's family will be there.

怡君在看报纸

怡君： 我不知道该说什么。这不可能是真的。讣闻在这里。

荷莉： 真的有注销来?这一点都不像是真的——这简直是场天大的恶梦。

怡君： 可是这也解释了泰勒没接电话和费咪请假的原因。

荷莉： 可怜的费咪。泰勒的死一定让她明白自己还在乎他。

怡君： 这里说今天在麦尔葬仪社举行遗容瞻仰，会开放到五点。

荷莉： 已经四点半了。我们该去致意。泰勒的家人会在那里。
