跳舞场

When I got up to dance with the blonde there was no one on the floor but us. Any other time I would have been selfconscious, but the champagne and the way she clung to me, the dimmed lights and the solid feeling of security which the few hundred francs gave me, well… We had another dance together, a sort of private exhibition, and then we fell into conversation.

站起来同这位金发女郎跳舞时舞场上没有别人，若在平时我一定会有些不自然，如今香槟起了作用，还有她贴在我身上的姿势、昏暗的光线及那几百法郎给我的踏踏实实的安全感，不过……我们又跳了一场，像是在举行个人表演，然后我们便交谈起来。

The split between the two groups can hardly be papered over.

这两个团体间的分歧难以掩饰。

This approach not only encourages a greater number of responses, but minimizes the likelihood of stale groupthink.

这种做法不仅鼓励了更多的反应，而且减少跟风的可能性。
