趣味英语第203期:没有舞伴还应该参加舞会吗?

（单词翻译）

Demia Carter¹ asks:

德米亚·卡特问道：

"I have no date for prom this year. Should I still go?"

“今年的舞会我没有找到舞伴。我还应该参加吗？”

You know, I personally never went to prom so I honestly think it's kind of overrated.

我个人从不参加舞会，所以我真的认为舞会被高估了。

No, you shouldn't. You don't wanna be looking like the only person without a date.

你不应该参加。你不会想看起来像唯一没有舞伴的人。

I don't think you should go to prom, but instead go to McDonald's and have a nice cheeseburger.

我认为你不应该去参加舞会，而是要去麦当劳吃个美味的芝士汉堡。

You bet² you should.

你当然应该去。

You should find someone else that doesn't have a date. But you should still go.

你应该去找其他没有舞伴的人。你还是应该去舞会。

I am looking for a date to prom. Maybe you should go with me.

我正在找舞伴。也许你可以和我一起去。

Well, I don't think for the prom you have to have a date anymore. You know, go with your best friend.

我认为去舞会不再一定非要有舞伴。和你最好的朋友一起去也行。

Doesn't matter if you have a date. You should still go with your friends.

没有舞伴也没关系。你还可以和朋友一起去。

You don't need a date. Just go have fun with your friends. It doesn't matter if you have a date or not. It's just all about having fun!

你不需要舞伴。可以和朋友一起去玩。有没有舞伴都无所谓。只要玩得开心就好了！

Even if you don't have a date you can either go stag, go with a group of your friends.

没有舞伴你也可以去不带舞伴参加的舞会，可以和一群朋友一起去。

Sometimes the people that go stag, or go alone, and meet their friends there have so much more fun than the people who are on a date and are all nervous and all that.

有时人们去不带舞伴参加的舞会，或是独自一人去，在舞会上认识朋友能享受到的乐趣可比带着舞伴紧张的人要多多了。

You don't have to go with anybody. The good thing is that, you know, this is not just for couples. It's for your class.

你不必和任何人一起去。好消息是，这不仅是情侣参加的舞会，还是班级舞会。

Going to prom isn't about going with a date just to have a date. It's about going with friends, or if you have a boyfriend or a girlfriend, to go with them too, but it's basically³ celebrating the fact that you're a senior⁴ in high school and you're finally done.

参加舞会并不是和舞伴去约会。而是和朋友一起去玩，如果你有男朋友或女朋友，你可以和他们一起去，但舞会其实是为了庆祝你成为高中高年级生，你已经做到了。
