TeacherGwen 我们一起神翻译|12.8

Secrecy has this disadvantage: we lose the sense of proportion; we cannot tell whether our secret is important or not. Were Lucy and her cousin closeted with a great thing which would destroy Cecil's life if he discovered it, or with a little thing which he would laugh at? Miss Bartlett suggested the former. Perhaps she was right. It had become a great thing now. 保密有这样的缺点：我们不知道孰轻孰重，我们没法判断我们的秘密重大与否。Lucy和她的表亲之间是有一个重大的秘密，重大到Cecil知道的话会毁掉他的生活的秘密，还是有一个只会让他发笑的小秘密。Bartlett女士倾向前者。可能她是对的。现在它已经变成干系重大的事情了。
