Claude: Uh, normal people. Have you been asking people to repeat themselves? Are you having trouble hearing people when there’s a lot of background noise?

克勞德：正常人會(huì)聽(tīng)到吧。你以前讓別人重復(fù)過(guò)他們說(shuō)的話么?當(dāng)有很多背景噪音的時(shí)候，你會(huì)有聽(tīng)力障礙嗎?

Bernadette: Maybe.

伯納黛特：或許吧。

克勞德：或許這種病向傳染病一樣簡(jiǎn)單，但是也可能情況更嚴(yán)重些，例如，如果你不能聽(tīng)到低分貝的聲音，可能是你的耳膜或者內(nèi)耳受損。

Bernadette: I am not getting a hearing aid.

伯納黛特：我不會(huì)使用助聽(tīng)器的。

克勞德：那么你寧愿讓別人大喊大叫了?

Bernadette: What?! Smell? You think I smell? Well, that’s just rude!

伯納黛特：什么?聞聲音!你認(rèn)為我再聞聲音!那也太不懂禮貌了!
