有勇氣
Yeah, few have courage in the spotlight.Bombshell · 2019 — 第 4 / 12 章 · 2'26" · B2
一間高層辦公室裡,年輕女性剛說完自己想在鏡頭前工作,對面就讓她站起來轉一圈。I want to convince you that that is where I belong(我想讓您相信,鏡頭前才是我該待的地方)說得再誠懇,也擋不住一句 give me a twirl(轉一圈給我看)。面試裡聽懂這種客氣的指令,比背單詞更要緊。
艾爾斯的辦公室,會面先聊到梅根敢說真話、觀眾要的是真實,隨後一位想在鏡頭前工作的年輕女性推銷自己:I want to convince you that that is where I belong(我想讓您相信,鏡頭前才是我該待的地方),又補一句 I'd be freakin' phenomenal(我會極其出色)。話鋒一轉,對方誇她漂亮,give me a twirl(轉一圈給我看),再讓她把裙子往上拉,接著一句 It's a visual medium(電視是靠看的)。這些說法在面試和職場對話裡都用得上;最該聽懂的是:誇獎後面跟著指令,那就不是誇獎。

本章短語
轉一圈給我看turn around once for me to see
對方先誇凱拉臉漂亮,緊接著一句 give me a twirl,讓她站起來轉一圈;語氣像試衣服,卻把面試變成外貌檢查,當下沒解釋原因,越顯得理所當然。

37 句台詞裡標了 24 處
有勇氣
Yeah, few have courage in the spotlight.在公眾關注下
有人誇梅根在聚光燈下說真話,用的正是 in the spotlight;語氣像在贊她勇敢,也為後面的政治閒聊定調。
Yeah, few have courage in the spotlight.觀眾要的只是…
All audiences want is authenticity.在不讓某人做某事的情況下
Let's discuss it without you calling my people racist.定語從句:who 從句修飾 somebody,說明是哪類人;主幹是 A liberal is somebody。
A liberal is somebody who wants to live in a future, that he is太…以至於不實際去做
too lazy or too arrogant to actually create.據某人說
Well, in my family, Santa's always been white and, according to my granddaddy, a communist.爺爺/外公——美國南方口語,正式文書用 grandfather
Well, in my family, Santa's always been white and, according to my granddaddy, a communist.順路來訪
有人用 drop by 隨口問凱拉為什麼來辦公室;語氣像順路寒暄,凱拉隨後開始介紹自己的經歷。
Why did you drop by to see me?問題是/實情是
凱拉被問為什麼來,先頓一下,用 the thing is 把話題拉回自己的經歷;語氣恭敬,也在爭取解釋空間。
Well, the thing is, sir, I actually started on-air during college in Central Florida. Weather.從直播崗位起步
Well, the thing is, sir, I actually started on-air during college in Central Florida. Weather.使某人相信…
I want to convince you that that is where I belong, Mr. Ailes.我該待的位置
凱拉用 where I belong 向對方表決心,說自己屬於這個電視網;語氣禮貌,卻把求職壓成一句身份宣言。
I want to convince you that that is where I belong, Mr. Ailes.賓語從句:convince you that... 第一個 that 引賓語從句,第二個 that 是主語,連讀易混。
I want to convince you that that is where I belong, Mr. Ailes.兩個 that 連讀,前一個輕收,後一個滑進 is。
I want to convince you that that is where I belong, Mr. Ailes.在你們臺會極出色
I think I'd be freakin' phenomenal on your network.兩個詞都重讀,後半句快推。
I think I'd be freakin' phenomenal on your network.非常/極其(口語強調)——熟人玩笑或強調,面試正式場合別用
I think I'd be freakin' phenomenal on your network.強調謂語:did 放在動詞前不是過去時問句,而是強調‘確實建立了’,語氣更硬。
but I did create it. I do run it.轉一圈給我看
對方先誇凱拉臉漂亮,緊接著一句 give me a twirl,讓她站起來轉一圈;語氣像試衣服,卻把面試變成外貌檢查,當下沒解釋原因,越顯得理所當然。
Here, stand up and give me a twirl.stand up and 快說時,up 滑進 and。
Here, stand up and give me a twirl.快速轉一圈
Yeah. Just a quick spin.把某物往上拉
Now, pull your dress up and let me see your legs.視覺媒介
It's a visual medium, Kayla.All audiences want is authenticity.觀眾要的只是真實感。 一句話把收視邏輯壓成口號:觀眾要的只是真實感,短、硬、好引用。
Let's discuss it without you calling my people racist.咱們可以討論,但別張口就說我的人種族歧視。 把底線包在 let's 裡,禮貌外殼下是命令,適合學‘軟釘子’。
I want to convince you that that is where I belong, Mr. Ailes.我想讓您相信,那才是我該待的地方,艾爾斯先生。 把求職說成歸屬宣言,禮貌稱呼壓住野心,比‘我想要這份工作’更狠。
I think I'd be freakin' phenomenal on your network.我覺得我在你們電視網會特別出彩。 freakin' phenomenal 把自誇說得好記,衝勁裡帶點冒失。
It's a visual medium, Kayla.這是個視覺媒介,凱拉。 用行業術語給越界要求找理由,平靜得刺人。
是讓人原地「轉一圈給我看」。臺詞裡 Here, stand up and give me a twirl 之後接一句 Now?,緊接著 Just a quick spin,就是「就快速轉一圈」。
visual medium 的意思是「視覺媒介」,指電視主要靠畫面。臺詞裡 It's a visual medium, Kayla 出現在「把裙子撩起來,讓我看看你的腿」之後,就是拿電視的性質當理由。
用 the thing is。臺詞裡 Well, the thing is, sir, I actually started on-air during college in Central Florida,就是先墊一句「實情是」,再說自己大學就上過鏡。
where I belong。臺詞裡 I want to convince you that that is where I belong 的意思就是「我想讓您相信,那才是我該待的地方」。
字面是「在聚光燈下」,意思是「在公眾關注下」。臺詞裡一句 few have courage in the spotlight,說的是在眾人注視下還敢說真話的人不多。
