【语法分析】
assuring：非谓语现在分词与though连用作让步状语，并有自己的逻辑宾语his wife、补语（something）that he should not go。其中that前省略了something，that引导同位语从句he should not go
Observing：非谓语现在分词作时间状语，并有自己的逻辑宾语，该宾语为一个从句his second daughter employed in trimming a hat
the visit was paid：习惯用法，表示访问结束
拓展：pay a visit，表示进行访问
【翻译】
班纳特先生是最早去拜访彬格莱先生的人之一。他一直都打算去看他，虽然到最后总是对妻子说不去；直到他拜访以后的那天晚上，她对此仍是一无所知。随后以以下方式披露。他看到第二个女儿在装饰帽子，就突然对她说：“我希望彬格莱先生会喜欢你这顶帽子，丽萃。”
“We are not in a way to know what Mr.Bingley likes, ”said her mother resentfully, “since we are not to visit.”
【词语】
resentfully /rɪˈzentfəli/
adv. 充满愤恨地
【语法分析】
to know：非谓语不定式作后置定语，修饰way，并有自己的逻辑宾语，该宾语为一个从句what Mr.Bingley likes，用what连接，并在从句中作likes宾语
be to do sth.：这里又出现了，昨天Chapter 1,讲了它的用法，还记得吗。这里的we are not to visit表示打算
【翻译】
她母亲气愤愤地说:“我们既然不打算去看彬格莱先生，就无从知道他喜欢什么。”
“But you forget, mamma, ”said Elizabeth, “that we shall meet him at the assemblies, and that Mrs.Long promised to introduce him.”
【词语】
assembly /əˈsembli/
n. 装配；集会，集合
n. 汇编，编译

【语法分析】
forget后有两个that，引导宾语从句
【翻译】

“No more have I,” said Mr.Bennet; “and I am glad to find that you do not depend on her serving you.”
【语法分析】
No more have I：其完整句子是No more have I liked her.其中No more位于句首时，采用部分倒装结构
语法点：含有否定意义的副词若位于句首，其后要用部分倒装，即助动词/系动词/情态动词置于主语前
【翻译】

But if we do not venture, somebody else will; and after all, Mrs.Long and her daughters must stand their chance; and, therefore, as she will think it an act of kindness, if you decline the office, I will take it on myself.”

The girls stared at their father. Mrs.Bennet said only ,“Nonsense, nonsense!”
【翻译】
女孩们盯着她们的父亲。班纳特太太只说:“胡说，胡说!”
“What can be the meaning of that emphatic exclamation?” cried he. “Do you consider the forms of introduction, and the stress that is laid on them, as nonsense? I cannot quite agree with you there. What say you, Mary? For you are a young lady of deep reflection, I know, and read great books and make extracts.”

“你的这表示强调的感叹语气是什么意思？”他大声说，“你是不是觉得介绍礼仪以及对它们的重视是胡扯，你说呢，玛丽?你是一个有着深刻思想的姑娘，读了许多的经典名著，而且做了不少的摘录。”
Mary wished to say something sensible, but knew not how.
【翻译】

“I am sick of Mr.Bingley,”cried his wife.
【翻译】
“我现在讨厌听到彬格莱先生这个名字。”他的妻子嚷起来。
“I am sorry to hear that; but why did not you tell me that before? If I had known as much this morning, I certainly would not have called on him. It is very unlucky; but as I have actually paid the visit, we cannot escape the acquaintance now.”
【语法分析】
If I had known as much this morning, I certainly would not have called on him.
还记得语法点虚拟语气的倒退原则吗？
与过去事实相反，if从句倒退到最前的时间即过去完成时had known，主句倒退到现在完成时would not have called。
【翻译】
“听到这个消息我很难过；你为什么不早告诉我呢?要是今天上午知道他这样的话，我当然不会去看他的。这是非常不幸的；现在既然拜访过了，我们少不了要结交这个朋友。”
The astonishment of the ladies was just what he wished; that of Mrs.Bennet perhaps surpassing the rest; though, when the first tumult of joy was over, she began to declare that it was what she had expected all the while.
【词语】
surpass /sərˈpæs/
vt. 超越；胜过，优于；非…所能办到或理解
tumult /ˈtuːmʌlt/
n. 骚动；骚乱；吵闹；激动
【语法分析】
what he wished作系动词was的表语，表语为一个从句，用what连接，并作从句中wished的宾语。what she had expected也是同种用法
that of Mrs.Bennet perhaps surpassing the rest：that指astonishment，非谓语现在分词surpassing作伴随状语，并有自己的逻辑宾语the rest
【翻译】
女性们的诧异和吃惊的程度正像他事先所预料的那样，班纳特夫人的惊异更胜女儿们；不过在一阵惊喜过后，她便开始宣布这是她早就料到的事。
“How good it was in you, my dear Mr. Bennet! But I knew I should persuade you at last. I was sure you loved your girls too well to neglect such an acquaintance. Well, how pleased I am! and it is such a good joke, too, that you should have gone this morning and never said a word about it till now.”
【翻译】
“你真好，亲爱的！但我知道我最终会说服你的。我相信你太爱你的女儿们了，一定不会忽视这样一个认识他的机会。哦，我是多么高兴啊！你这个玩笑开得真有意思，你竟会今天上午去拜访他，而且到现在一字不提。”

adj. 疲劳的

【翻译】
“吉蒂，现在你可以放心咳嗽啦，”班纳特先生说。他一边说着，一边离开了房间，妻子的狂喜使他有些厌倦了。
“What an excellent father you have, girls!” said she, when the door was shut. “I do not know how you will ever make him amends for his kindness; or me, either, for that matter. At our time of life it is not so pleasant, I can tell
you, to be making new acquaintances every day; but for your sakes, we would do anything. Lydia, my love, though you are the youngest, I dare say Mr. Bingley will dance with you at the next ball.”
【词语】
amend /əˈmend/
vt. 修改；改善，改进
vi. 改正，改善；改过自新
for your sake
为了你（们）好
前文：for Heaven’s sake
看在上帝的份上
【语法分析】
At our time of life it is not so pleasant, I can tell you, to be making new acquaintances every day：原语序I can tell you at our time of life it is not so pleasant to be making new acquaintances every day.
to be making：非谓语不定式的进行态作原因状语，修饰pleasant
【翻译】
“姑娘们，你们的父亲真是太好了!” 门关上后，她说。“我不知道你怎样才能报答他的好意;我也一样。我可以告诉你，在我们这个年纪，每天结交新朋友是很不愉快的；但为了你们，我们什么都愿意做。丽迪雅，乖宝贝，虽然你年纪最小，我敢说彬格莱先生在舞会上会选择和你跳舞。
“Oh!” said Lydia stoutly, “I am not afraid; for though I am the youngest, I’m the tallest.”
【翻译】
“哦！丽迪雅大声说：“我才不怕呢；虽然我最小，可是个子最高。”
The rest of the evening was spent in conjecturing how soon he would return Mr.Bennet’s visit, and determining when they should ask him to dinner.
【词语】
spend in
把...花费于
花...做
conjecture /kənˈdʒektʃər/
n. 推测；猜想
vi. 推测；揣摩
vt. 推测
【语法分析】
was spent in：由于主语为The rest of the evening，所以用被动语态
conjecturing：非谓语动名词作in的介词宾语，并有自己的逻辑宾语，该宾语为一个从句how soon he would return Mr.Bennet’s visit.
determining：非谓语动名词作in的介词宾语，并有自己的逻辑宾语，该宾语为一个从句when they should ask him to dinner.
【翻译】
那天晚上所剩下的时间母女们都用来猜测彬格莱先生什么时候会对她们的父亲做回访，盘算着什么时候请彬格莱先生来吃饭。
