影片对白 Bridget: Hi. Greta? Um, I'm really sorry. I should have called first, but I'm... Greta: I think I know my own granddaughter. You're not running away from home, are you? Bridget: No, actually, I'm coming home, from Turkey. Greta: That's an interesting sense of direction. Bridget: So you fix your own car? Greta: Cars are easy. It's people you need a manual for. Come on in. You must be exhausted. Bridget: Yep. You don't even know. Greta: Why don't you go right up and get some rest? ******************************* Carmen: Hello! Julia: Hey. Carmen: Hey. Wow, you look great. Julia: You think? Thanks. Carmen: So, what's the occasion? Julia: Um, Ian asked me to dinner. I mean, I can be so dense sometimes. I didn't even know that he liked me that way. Did you? Carmen: No. But, then again, I can be pretty dense too so... Julia: I don’t know. I just thought he might have said something to you, because you guys have become such good friends. But...you know men. Carmen: So... so you're going, then? You're going on a date? Julia: Yeah. I mean, he's gorgeous, and he's really nice, and... he's really real. For an actor, anyway. I just thought, why not give it a chance? We have so much in common anyway, and it might really work. I know you need a lot of sleep before rehearsal tomorrow. I'll be really quiet when I come home, but don't wait up. Carmen: I won't. Julia: Okay. Well, have a good night. ****************************** Bridget: Thanks, Greta. Grandma. I'm sorry, I don't know which... Greta: I haven't heard from you in...10 or 12 years. Bridget: I know. Look, my dad, he hid your letters from me. I just found them this summer. Greta: I see. So I guess we can skip junior high and high school. How's college? Bridget: Uh, it's good. I haven't declared a major yet, but... Greta: Got a fella? Bridget: No, not at the moment. Greta: Listen, you ought to kick up some trouble now, because in 40 years, they'll all tell you you're old. You made that the summer you visited. You must have been about 6 or 7 years old. Bridget: I've been here before? Greta: Well, that was a long time ago. Tibby: "Return to sender." Super. ******************************* Carmen: O, the fates. How would he look to see his work, so noble, vilely bound up? Bill: Stop. Again. Carmen: O, the fates. How would he look to see his work, so noble... Bill: Stop. Again. Carmen: O, the fates. How would he look to see his... Bill: Stop right there. Carmen, is there a problem? Carmen: No. I don't know. Did I say the wrong line? Bill: No. You're supposed to sound like a woman in love. You sound like a woman who's about to have a root canal. Again. Carmen: O, the fates. How would he look to s... Bill: I hear the drill. Again! Ian: Carmen, wait. Carmen: Look, I'm sorry. I don't mean to be screwing everything up like this. Ian: You've got great instincts. You just need to trust them. Why don't we work on it together, tonight? Carmen: No. It's okay. I should just work on it alone. Thanks. 妙语佳句 活学活用 1. manual: 手册；说明书；指南。看一下例子：You should read the manual before you turn on the new machine.（在开这台新机器前，应该阅读使用手册。）影片中Bridget的外祖母认为和人打交道比和机器打交道难得多，车坏了还好修，但是人与人的关系却没那么好处理。 2. occasion: 理由；原因。例如：You have no occasion to buy another car.（你没有必要再买一辆汽车。） 3. dense: 迟钝的，愚钝的。请看例子：By her dense look I knew she didn't understand a word I said.（我从她愚钝的表情看出，我说的她一点也不懂。） 4. gorgeous: 吸引人的，漂亮的。在这里指Ian很帅。 5. wait up (for sb.): 熬夜，不睡觉（等人回家）。看一下例子：Don't wait up for me: I shall be coming home very late.（不用等我，我要很晚才回家。） 6. skip: 略过。看一下例子：She skipped the jargon when she read the popular science magazine.（她读那本通俗科学杂志时把其中的术语跳过未读。） 7. Super: 太好了，棒极了。影片中Tibby显然在说反话。 8. root canal: 牙齿的根管，根管治疗。 9. drill: 牙转。影片中Bill觉得Carmen读台词好像看牙一样痛苦，都可以听到牙钻运转的声音了。 |
