Monalisa Smile 《蒙娜麗莎的微笑》精講之一
影片對(duì)白
Betty Warren: All her life she had wanted to teach at Wellesley College. So when a position opened in the Art History department, she pursued it single-mindedly until she was hired. It was whispered that Katherine Watson, a first year teacher from Oakland State, made up in brains what she lacked in pedigree, which was why this Bohemian from California was on her way to the most conservative college in the nation...
Katherine Watson: Excuse me, the bus?
Train Attendant: Keep walking, ma'am.
Katherine: Thank you.
Betty: ...But Katherine Watson didn't come to Wellesley to fit in. She came to Wellesley because she wanted to make a difference.
Bill Dunbar: Violet.
Violet: My favorite Italian professor.
Bill: Nice summer?
Violet: Terrific! Thanks!
Bill: Who's that over there?
Violet: Where? Oh, Katherine Watson, new teacher, Art History. I'm dying to meet her.
President: Who knocks at the door of Learning?
Joan Brandwyn: I am every Woman.
President: What do you seek?
Joan: To awaken my spirit through hard work and dedicate my life to knowledge.
President: Then you are Welcome. All women who seek to follow you can enter here. I now declare the academic year begun.
妙詞佳句，活學(xué)活用
1. pedigree
這是一個(gè)相對(duì)比較正式的單詞，意思一般是“出身;家族;血統(tǒng);門第”等。當(dāng)然在指動(dòng)物時(shí)一般是指“純種”。這種詞在題材相對(duì)嚴(yán)肅的影片中比較容易遇到。給大家舉幾個(gè)例子以便更容易記住它：
1) A penniless lass with a long pedigree and a sweet face, she had been raised by a scheming aunt to find a million dollars and marry it.
這位小姑娘雖然一貧如洗，卻是世家出身，由姑母撫養(yǎng)大，長(zhǎng)得俏麗動(dòng)人。這位長(zhǎng)輩頗有心計(jì)，一心想讓侄女嫁個(gè)百萬(wàn)富翁。
2)He comes from a family of pedigree.
他出身名門。
2. Katherine Watson didn't come to Wellesley to fit in.
這個(gè)句子的意思是：凱瑟琳·華森到韋爾斯利學(xué)院并非是來(lái)融入其中的。這種句式是英語(yǔ)中的一種常見(jiàn)句式，我們稱之為否定轉(zhuǎn)移句。此句里的否定不是針對(duì)come，而是否定fit in的。類似的句子有很多，比如：
I don't teach because teaching is easy for me. 這句話的意思不是表面說(shuō)的“我不教書是因?yàn)榻虝鴮?duì)我來(lái)說(shuō)很容易”，而是“我教書并不是因?yàn)榻虝鴮?duì)我來(lái)說(shuō)很容易。”
再比如在之前的電影《情歸巴黎》中，有兩句臺(tái)詞是這樣的：
No self-respecting lawyer would offer less.
No self-respecting waitress would take it.
要注意兩句的翻譯為：
--任何一個(gè)有自尊的律師提供的價(jià)錢都不會(huì)比這個(gè)數(shù)目少。
--任何一個(gè)有自尊的女侍者都不會(huì)接受這筆錢。
所以大家在理解否定轉(zhuǎn)移句子的時(shí)候要特別當(dāng)心，同時(shí)也可以學(xué)著用類似的表達(dá)。
3. Terrific
口語(yǔ)中極常見(jiàn)的感嘆詞，意思一般是“好極了，棒極了，太漂亮了”等等。我們?cè)俜e累一些類似表達(dá)的詞匯，如：
Gorgeous, fantastic, amazing, superb, fabulous, wonderful, marvelous 等等，這些詞在口語(yǔ)中本身就可以構(gòu)成單字的句子，通常表示感嘆。
4. I'm dying to meet her.
相信大家一看這個(gè)句子就理解它的意思了，因?yàn)榉浅Ｐ蜗�。�?dāng)我們想表達(dá)對(duì)什么事情的急切和渴望的心情的時(shí)候，就可以用這種夸張的說(shuō)法。意思是very eager to do sth.
如：She's dying to leave for Paris.
她非常想去巴黎。
Iam dying to watch the movie adapted from my favorite novel.
我迫不及待地想看看這部改編自我最喜歡的小說(shuō)的電影。
