影片对白 Amanda: Who is it? Graham: It's me. Hurry up. It's freezing. Amanda: Who are you? Graham: Iris, open the door, or I swear I'm gonna take a leak all over your front porch. Oh. You're not Iris. Or if you are, I'm much drunker than I realized. I'm sorry for my profanity. I wasn't expecting you. Amanda: Well, I wasn't expecting you, either. Graham: Nevertheless, may I just... Amanda: Oh, yeah, of course, sure, you had to... Yeah. Graham: I'm Graham. Iris' brother. Amanda: Oh, brother. Well, I'm Amanda Woods. I'm staying here. Graham: Amandawoods? Is that all one word? Amanda: No. No, it's not. Graham: So Iris is... Where is... Where is she? Amanda: She didn't tell you? Graham: She could've done, but as previously stated, I'm a...I'm just, I've been on the... Amanda: She's in Los Angeles. Graham: That's not possible. Iris never goes anywhere. Amanda: Well, we have that in common. No, she listed this cottage on a home exchange website and I found it. We switched houses for two weeks for the holiday. She's in L.A. at my house and I'm here. Graham: People actually do that? Amanda: Apparently. Yeah. I mean, it seems. Here I am in my pajamas. Graham: She did ring me last night. I didn't get a chance to get back to her. I feel awful now. Would you mind if I sat? I feel like I might bump into you. Amanda: Sure. Yeah. Sit. Oh, God. (Graham sighs) Amanda: You okay? Graham: Yeah. I'm good. Look, I'm sorry about the intrusion. Although I may not appear it, I am, in fact, Iris' semi-respectable big brother. But on the rare, or lately not so rare, occasion that I frequent the local pub and get inordinately pissed, my little sister puts me up so I don't get behind the wheel. Pathetic explanation, but, unfortunately, it's become a bit of a routine. So how's it going so far? I mean, up until I showed up and ruined your night. Amanda: (Stammering) Well, it's not going so great. Yeah, I'm leaving tomorrow on a noon plane. Graham: Oh. When did you get here? Amanda: About six hours ago. Graham: We've made a great impression on you, haven't we? Amanda: No, it's not that. It's just that, you know, I'm not quite myself right now. I came here on a stupid whim. Honestly, I've never thought about anything less. It's very unlike me. Would you like something to drink? Glass of water? Tea? Wine, maybe? Graham: Maybe there's a bottle of brandy. You fancy a glass? Amanda: Sure. Graham: Good. So, I'm sorry, I've totally blanked and forgotten your name. Amanda: Amanda. Graham: So, Amanda, you're not married, are you? Amanda: Why? Do I look not married? Graham: No, it was just a backwards way of asking if you were married. Amanda: No, not at all. Don't know what that means. I mean, no, I'm not married. Graham: Me, either. Amanda: Here you go. Graham: Cheers. Amanda: Cheers. Graham: So is it horrible if I stay? I'll be gone before you even wake up. I promise you will never lay eyes on me again. Amanda: Oh. No, that's fine. Sure. Graham: Thank you. Amanda: Let me just get you a blanket. Graham: In the cupboard on top of the Scrabble. So why is it you aren't quite yourself at the moment? Amanda: Well, I just broke up with someone. Yesterday. Graham: Ah. Amanda: And I guess what I was feeling was that I didn't want to be alone over the holidays, and I thought that if I was somewhere else that I wouldn't realize that I was alone. But then I got here, and I've never felt more alone in my life. Big surprise. Bet you're glad you knocked on this door. Graham: I am, actually. Amanda: Yeah, well... Sorry and good night. Graham: Sweet dreams. Amanda: Do you think you could...Would you mind...trying that again? 妙语佳句 活学活用 1. take a leak: 小便。 2. front porch: 前廊。 3. profanity: 粗俗污秽的言语，不敬的言语。 4. have sth. in common (with somebody): 人（想法、兴趣等方面）相同，有共同点。例如：Jane and I have nothing in common.（简和我毫无共同之处。） 5. bump into: 撞见，碰见，偶然遇见。看一下例子：I often bump into him at the supermarket.（我经常在超市同他不期而遇。） 6. frequent: 常去，常到（某处），时常出入于。例如：Tourists frequent the district.（游客常去那个地方。） 7. put somebody up: 为某人提供（膳）宿；得到（膳）宿，宿夜。put/take somebody up for the night就是“留某人过夜”。看一下例子： 8. get behind the wheel: 驾车。 9. show up: 出现；露面。 10.
