Hurley: Just tell Mr. Locke that I had a fever or something.

Hurley：就告訴洛克先生我發(fā)燒了之類的話

Swayer：哦，很抱歉，赫爾利，我不能夠做那樣的事

Hurley: Why’s that?

Hurley：那是為什么?

Sawyer: That would be a lie and I don’t think lying is the right thing to do. I’m sorry.

Disagreeing with someone’s attitude

Jack：當(dāng)然，索伊，什么事?

Sawyer: Hurley told me that you said I’m an atheist. Why did you say that?

Sawyer：赫爾利告訴過(guò)我你說(shuō)我是無(wú)神論者，你為什么說(shuō)那?

Jack: Well, you never go to the church. I have never seen you pray so I assumed it was the case.

Jack：嗯，你從未去過(guò)教堂，我從未見到你祈禱，因此我猜想是那種情況

Sawyer: I understand where you’re coming from but you shouldn’t take things for granted. I believe in God. I just don’t believe in a religion. That doesn’t make me an atheist.

Sawyer：我知道你從哪里過(guò)來(lái)，但你不應(yīng)該把一些事認(rèn)為理所當(dāng)然。我相信上帝，我只是不信教，這并不能讓我成為一個(gè)無(wú)神論者

Jack: Oh! I’m sorry Sawyer. I hope I didn’t hurt your feelings. It was a casual discussion.

Jack：哦，對(duì)不起索伊，我希望那不會(huì)傷害到你感情，那只是隨便討論一下

Jack：我不知道，他可能想請(qǐng)假而編出的一個(gè)借口

Sawyer: I don’t think so. Hurley would never do that . He’s a serious man.

Sawyer：我不這樣認(rèn)為，赫爾利從來(lái)不會(huì)那樣做，他是一個(gè)嚴(yán)謹(jǐn)?shù)娜?/p>

Jack: That’s one way to look at it, but from my point of view I still don’t think it was true.
